Sweet Marriage: Can't Love You Too Much novel Chapter 8

Elsewhere, in the Jennings home.

The living room was full of people, including the elderly Sylvia Walker, the father Shaun Jennings, the mother Sally Youngs, as well as Jason Morton's sister, Hayley Morton, and several of Celine Jenning’s friends as well.

Celine and Jason sat on the sofa at the side. The atmosphere was slightly gloomy.

"Celine, if you ask me, you’re too easy to bully! My brother and you are in love, how dare she do such a thing? She knew very well how sensitive your identity is, yet she still called the police to arrest you. Isn't it obvious that she wants to ruin you?"

"That's right. Besides, the fact that she's fooling around with another man right after breaking up with Young Master Morton just proves that she’s not a good person!"

"Celine, you're at a disadvantage because you're a public figure. Now, everyone is talking about your affairs all over the Internet, saying that you were seduced by Young Master Morton or that you were abusing drugs and so on. All that is clearly false, so you have to think of a way to fix this quickly."

"Yeah! Nell called the police deliberately. You can't be pressured by her!"

Celine cast a pitiful and delicate glance at Sylvia who was sitting at the head. Her fair and white face easily revealed fragility and sorrow.

"What can I do? My sister insisted on doing this, so I can't force her. After all, we're family. If we fight, the ones troubled would be grandmother and mom and dad."

Sylvia gave her a look of approval at her words.

Shaun Jennings growled in anger. "Why would I be troubled? You treat her like an elder sister, but why don't you ask her if she has ever seen you as her younger sister?"

"Uncle, don’t blame her for this... It was my fault."

Jason frowned and spoke calmly.

Celine hurriedly refuted, "No, I'm the one in the wrong. If I hadn't fallen in love with Jason, my sister wouldn't have..."

"Celine, that's not what I meant."

Jason stopped her and said in a low voice, "What I meant was that we should have told her earlier. We shouldn't have dragged this out just because we were worried about hurting her. It's because I didn't handle this properly that caused you to be wronged."

Celine suddenly felt touched and looked at him gratefully. "Jason..." "Ahem!"

With a light cough, Sylvia wore a smile on her face and turned to Jason.

"Young Master Morton, things have already come to this point, and you've seen the public opinions on the Internet. It's impossible to just treat this as a small matter now. What are your thoughts on the current situation?"

Jason's expression was heavy. Celine clenched her fingers quietly, appearing a little nervous.

"Ma’am, you can rest assured that I won't let Celine be wronged any further. When I go back, I’ll immediately have someone issue a statement announcing my relationship with Celine.

Sylvia looked delighted.

Sally and Shaun also became excited. Only Celine showed a trace of worry in her delicate eyes.

"But everyone outside knows that you're already engaged. Will they believe us?"

Jason held her hand and explained, "Although everyone knows I’m engaged, not many know who my fiancee is. All I have to tell them is that the marriage contract was originally made with you and that you're my fiancee. No one would have anything to say then.

Only then did Celine reveal a touch of joy.

However, the next second, she frowned again.

"But sister..." 2

"Don't worry about that! I'll handle your sister.”

Sylvia's tone held the authority she cultivated for many years.

"There's no need for Young Master Morton to announce it on the Internet, lest unnecessary trouble pops up again. Isn’t the day after tomorrow Celine's birthday? We'll hold a party and invite a few reporters, so just announce it on her birthday.”

Jason nodded. "Alright, I'll do as you say."

"You should also go back and discuss this matter with your parents. After all, it's a matter of marriage. It won't be good to make decisions on your own." 1

"Please don't worry. They've already agreed to it. My parents also like Celine very much."
