Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Mr. Riley! Curtis's Identity Was Exposed

"I..." Jacob explained calmly after a brief panic, "Since my sister is so shameless, I'll just tell you the truth. Logan's mother doesn't want Adeline at all. Therefore, our family asks Viola to proceed with the marriage engagement instead. This is the decision of the family!"

Heather nodded and said, "Okay, I don't care about the decision of your family."

Jacob felt relieved, but Heather's calm voice was heard again.

"But let me ask you. Did you set Adeline up and send her to Mr. Baker?"

"I..." Jacob looked awkward. He walked towards Heather, gently held her hands, and explained, "Baby, this matter is complicated. Besides, Adeline is not a good person."

As he said that, he turned his head and glanced at Curtis, "Look! She doesn't even spare the crippled one and she climbed onto his bed."

"She always wanted to get married very badly and leave the family."

"Think about it. If you are comparing these two, isn't marrying Mr. Baker better than this person who is in a wheelchair?"

"She will become the wife of the director if she gets married to Mr. Baker!"

Heather's expression changed. She looked at Jacob in shock and said, "That is to say, your family wants Viola to marry Logan instead of Adeline. But Adeline isn't willing to do so, so you set her up and make her sleep with Mr. Baker. You want to destroy her. Is that what you were saying?"

Jacob looked a little embarrassed. After all, it wasn't something glorious, but he still wanted to explain further on it.

"Baby, not everyone is as good as you. Adeline is an unlucky person. That's why we did that. We wouldn't treat you like that. As long as you get married to me, I guarantee that the family will treasure you as much as they could..."

Jacob still looked like he wanted to explain something, but Heather interrupted him, "Jacob, let me ask you one last question. Did you participate in the plan to set Adeline up? Yes or no?"

"Yes." Jacob gritted his teeth and responded, "But this matter is supposed to turn out to be something good! Mr. Baker wants to marry Adeline while Adeline is the class teacher of Mr. Baker's children. After getting married, Adeline will be the wife of the director, and she can tutor Mr. Baker's children more closely. She will live a good life. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

Before Jacob finished speaking, Heather slapped him on his face.

There was a loud snap, which made Jacob's eardrums buzz.

Jacob covered his face which was burning hot, and he looked at Heather in disbelief, "Baby?"

"Don't call me that!" Heather raised her hand to stop him, and explained in disgust, "I feel disgusted whenever I see a scumbag! If you call me with that again, I'm going to throw up!"

She didn't like that engagement at all, and she didn't think of agreeing to it. She just agreed to spend time with him to see whether it was okay for them to get along.

During the time they were together, Jacob obeyed her and was extremely considerate. Even if she didn't feel love for Jacob, she couldn't find a single fault in him.

But now she suddenly knew his true colors. She felt furious about being used and deceived.

"Jacob, do you think that I'm stupid? I've met Adeline before this, and I know her."

"She works hard and always tries to do her best. She is much better than Viola, who you think is the treasure in your family!"

Jacob couldn't hear anyone criticize his sister, and subconsciously yelled, "You are not allowed to make such comments on Viola!"

After yelling, he regretted it. That engagement was extremely important to him, and it was also a bonus for his father to value him better. Therefore, he coaxed Heather in a gentle voice.

"Baby, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled at you like that. Listen to me. Let's not quarrel for someone like Adeline and her crippled husband, okay?"

Heather sneered and pushed him away, "It seems that you still don't know what's your mistake?"

"Well, let's not talk about what a person Adeline is. Even if she wants to climb into someone's bed, it is her own business!"
