Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us! novel Chapter 854

Everyone burst into laughter right after Bradley left, and their laughter filled the living room with a merry sound. Jocelyn was giggling as she shook her head. “How sad! They’ve always wanted their daughter to marry into our family because they wanted to benefit from the Murray Group. However, they should at least be honest about it if they want to ask us for our help. Unfortunately, they insist on acting high and mighty even though they are the ones asking us for help. People like them are really just…” Her voice trailed off.

“This is great! Jason doesn’t have to get married to that bratty princess now.” Selena let out a sigh. She couldn’t picture the chaos that would ensue if Jane actually became a part of their family. Of course, she didn’t want her grandparents to have to deal with Jane’s temper, and she didn’t want her aunt to be bullied by a daughter-in-law like Jane.

Jocelyn relaxed her shoulders as she exhaled. “Jason’s not a young man any longer, Selena. He’s older than you, and you already have four children. But what about him? I don’t want to rush his marriage, but he’s been alone for so long, and I feel worried whenever I think about him. Do you have any girls that you can introduce to him?”

“I think we should depend on fate for such things, Aunt Jocelyn. But just in case I do have someone to recommend, do you have any requirements for your future daughter-in-law, Aunt Jocelyn? Any specific preferences for her studies, appearances, family background, and so on?” Selena asked.

Jocelyn let out a faint smile when she heard Selena’s words. “I don’t have such requirements. All I want for Jason is an honest, kind girl who can get along well with the family. Most importantly, I want him to find someone he likes. This is the most important factor to be considered since the two of them are going to spend the rest of their lives together.”

“Alright. I’ll look around and see if there’s anyone like that.” Selena didn’t say anything else since there were still a number of things that hadn’t been confirmed.

…

The Oberlin Family was quick to announce the cancellation of Jane and Jason’s marriage. They even told the public about how dishonest the Murrays were by insisting that the Murrays were rushing the wedding because the Murrays wanted to trick Jane into entering their family.

However, most of the public was aware of the fact that the Oberlins had only canceled the marriage after they heard of the rumors about the will. As much as the Oberlin Family tried to taint the Murrays’ reputation, most of the public knew what the truth was.

Jane herself went around and announced to others that she would get married to a man who was a hundred times better than Jason. Initially, she had expected a good number of young, handsome men to visit and ask her out for a date after her marriage was canceled. To her surprise, there wasn’t a single man who seemed interested!

“What about William? Didn’t he say that he would get married to me the day after I cancel my engagement? What about Paul? Paul said I’m the only woman he’d marry in this lifetime!” Jane couldn’t believe that all the men who had once complimented her were now nowhere to be seen! She couldn’t believe it at all!

“Miss Oberlin, William is engaged to someone else now. I heard Paul is dating another girl as well,” someone said.

“What?!” Jane felt as if she had been struck by lightning then. What is wrong with all these men?! She had no idea that all the men who had once praised her were actually cracking jokes about her. Although she didn’t know it, it was a matter of fact that she wouldn’t get married to anyone for the rest of her life.

…

A while after the marriage was called off, Selena finally received some news from Pierre. He had sent her the address of the woman whom Jason met in the mountains. “I took so long to find her because all you gave me was a common name! This girl’s real name is Mayaboy. God, do you have any idea how many girls are called Mayaboy in that village? I nearly died as I went around looking for every single Mayaboy around there!” Pierre was ranting on the other end of the line.

“Okay, okay. You’ve really done a great job this time!” Selena said.

“Well, how are you planning to reward me, then?” Selena could sense the longing in Pierre’s voice even though they were only communicating through a screen. She had been halfway through her pregnancy when Pierre last returned. Although they were technically allowed to be intimate during that period, she hadn’t had a stable pregnancy at that time.
