On the day of the ball, Fell didn't come with Alice, but with a new favorite. Seeing her, Essie trembled violently. "Damn it! Why is my cousin with Fell?"
A malicious and cold light flashed through Zac's eyes. He thought that Fell was really good at choosing Finney.
After being stunned, a touch of anger rose in Essie's chest. One was her biological sister, and the other was her cousin. They were all her family. If they quarreled, she would be sandwiched between them like a sandwich? Most importantly, she was sure that Fell just wanted to play tricks on her cousin and deceive her feelings. He didn't intend to marry her at all.
"Calm down!" Zac patted her on the shoulder.
But Essie couldn't calm down. Fell had gone too far this time. She didn't mind if he wanted to play with other women, but he couldn't play with her sister!
With anger flashing in her dark almond eyes, she took two deep breaths and strode towards Fell and Finney.
"Brother in law to be, how do you know my cousin?" She deliberately called him brother-in-law to be very clear and loud.
"We met at Midnight Club." Finney answered in a casual tone, as if she didn't care about stealing Alice's fiancee.
Essie felt a little dizzy, but she didn't show it. She just smiled and said, "That's right. We are all relatives. My brother-in-law to be is going to marry my sister. At that time, he will be your brother-in-law."
Finney's face changed slightly. She smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
Fell reached out his hand and rudely wrapped his arms around her slender waist. He looked at Essie and smiled wickedly, "Sister Cathy, before we get married, we'd better make more choices in case we will regret later. Don't you think so?" After a pause, she changed her tone. "But she and Alice are both your sister. I can still be your brother-in-law."
Anger was burning in Essie's eyes. Alice had been looking forward to marry him, but now he was hooking up with Finney, which was undoubtedly a thunderbolt to her!
And Finney also wanted to get married. She had already experienced a failed marriage, and if she was abandoned by Fell again. How could she bear it?
"Brother Fell, are you going to choose between my two sisters? Will there be no third choice?" Her smile was still on the corner of her mouth, but her tone became serious. She was deliberately refuting Fell.
Fell shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. He neither admitted nor denied, lest he was caught by Essie again.
Noticing her cousin's displeasure, Finney smiled at him and said, "Wait for me at the bar counter. Order me a cup of Margret."
Fell nodded and walked towards the bar counter.
Knowing that the two sisters needed to have a talk alone, Zac found a quiet corner and sat down.
Essie took two glasses of champagne and handed one to Finney.
Taking a sip of champagne, Finney said slowly, "Essie, I know you are not happy when I date with Fell. I don't want to be a mistress and steal Alice's fiancee. Fell told me that he had no feelings for Alice and would not marry her, so I agreed to date him. "
"Cousin, Fell is a playboy. He just wants to play with you, not marry you," Essie warned.
Finney shook the champagne in her hand.
Even though she had been cheated by the fake rich and had experienced a failed marriage, her concept of choosing a spouse had never changed. What she wanted was a rich and handsome man, and he couldn't be the inferior character like a rich man or a upstart. He must be a young man from a rich family and a top quality man.
She got married for two times, and she was not young anymore. The chances and success rate of finding a good man were getting smaller and smaller.
It was like a windfall to meet Fell. Fell was handsome, unrestrained, and the future leader of the Qin family. He was totally up to her standard. Why didn't she fight for it?
She was a fool if she didn't pick up the pie from the God.
"I will just take it as a gamble. If I lose, I won't regret. If I don't gamble, I will regret for the rest of my life," Finney said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Essie said helplessly, "Cousin, it's impossible for Fell to break up with my sister. He wants to date two girls at the same time. Don't be fooled by him."
"I can compete fairly with Alice," Finney said slowly.
"Sis, there are so many men in Dragon City. Why do you have a crush on Fell? If you like rich and handsome men, I can help you find someone better than Fell. " She tried her best to persuade Finney to stop.
But Finney didn't think so. Although there were many men on the earth, there were only a few top quality men. Only through cruel competition and survival of the fittest could they get the chance.
"There are only four princes in the four clans of Dragon City. Who else can compete with them? Besides, even without me, there will be other women involved between them. If there is no love, only interests can't remain the stable relationship between them. "
Seeing that she was unmoved, Essie sighed, knowing that her words were in vain.
"I have to go for Fell." Seeing that someone came to talk to Fell at the bar counter, Finney ended the conversation and walked towards the bar counter.
