Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 401

“There is no mistake. Ask your mother; this was your parents' idea!”

Justin looked at his parents in disbelief.

Mrs. Carter stepped forward and said, “Son, you need to get engaged, but the partner is obviously Cathy. I watched Cathy grow up. She is better than those wild girls out there. At least we know her background. Cathy is a good match for you. Your father and I think it's for the best!”

Edward and Maggie Whelan looked delighted.

“That is very true. Our Cathy has always been excellent. When they were young, I had intended for our two families to join in marriage!” Maggie looked provocatively at Amanda.

Elena looked at Claire. Her eyes were red, as if she couldn't handle the blow.

“Claire, stay strong,” Elena reminded her.

“Mom, I mentioned Justin and Claire to you before, and you said it was fine. Why is it Cathy now that the engagement is happening? Where does that leave our Claire?” Daniel demanded.

“Daniel, are you blaming me? An engagement naturally requires the consent of both sets of parents. Justin's parents and Cathy's parents are willing. What does it have to do with me? If you're not convinced, ask Robert and his wife.”

The old lady washed her hands of the matter completely.

Amanda suppressed her anger and stepped forward with a smile. “Robert, we are all family here. Our Claire and Justin truly love each other. By suddenly choosing Cathy, aren't you breaking up two people in love?”

Mrs. Carter glanced at Amanda with disdain. “What? Are you trying to force my son to marry your Claire? Marriage is a major life event, and naturally, we parents make the decisions. Is your daughter unable to find anyone else to marry?”

“What nonsense are you talking about!” Elena stepped forward and shouted.

How dare she imply Claire couldn't get a husband!

“Elena, I've heard about you. You just returned to the Whelan family. It was one thing for you to be disrespectful to the old lady before, but now that we adults are discussing business, you'd best keep your mouth shut!”
