Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99 Sister Scolds Logan

Edith said, "That... I really can't say. After all, none of us have ever seen your sister's marriage certificate!"

Edith pondered. "Initially, Steffen wanted to get her ID from our house. Since Steffen represents Mr. Riley and the Riley family, your father and I had no choice but to comply. Later, when he returned the ID, we had no way of verifying her marital status."

Viola narrowed her eyes slightly. Mom, don't you think it's possible that my sister conspired with Mr. Riley? They pretended to get married so that she could move out of the house. In reality, they might not have married at all. That's why we didn't receive any bride price, and those claims about land were all nonsense. We haven't seen any of it!"

"Right!" Edith thought it made sense, but then became skeptical again. "Then your sister living over there..."

"Didn't that woman just say it? She's borrowing the place! Old Mr. and Mrs. Riley have always liked my sister, probably asking Mr. Riley to protect her. The incident with Mr. Baker was so embarrassing."

Edith nodded. "But what about buying that store?"

"Mom, how can you not understand?! Look, did Mr. Riley give my sister clothes?"

"No! It was all talk! All for show!

"Moreover, businessmen prioritize profits. Investing in a luxury shop is a guaranteed profit!

"It's not really an investment for my sister.

"Even if it truly was for my sister, I guess the most she could be to him is a mistress."

"Yeah, Viola, you're absolutely right."

Viola snorted lightly. "I thought my sister had married into the Riley family. Turns out she's just staying there temporarily!"

Edith agreed. "Yes, how could your sister be so lucky!"

...

On the other hand, after Edith and her daughter left, Olivia also left the luxury shop. She waited impatiently in Bay Hall for Adeline's return.
