CEO's Reborn Wife - Chapter 1371 - 1379: Unnecessary
No matter if it’s this so-called disowning of their grandson, or the ancient painting worth tens of millions given to Grandpa Sampton, or the valuable jewelry sent to Julie Sampton, they are just covers and compensations.
In fact, through last night’s dinner, the Smith Family looked down on Julie Sampton, and would rather pay some money to the Sampton Family, risking cutting off relations between the two clans, than take Julie Sampton as their daughter-in-law.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have canceled the marriage so quickly, even if Second Young Master Smith ran off overnight, there was still half a month’s time to bring him back, wasn’t there?
The minute he fled, the family was on their doorstep to cancel the marriage contract. Although they tried to cover things up and did some things, anyone who isn’t foolish could see what the seniors of the Smith Family implied.
Luckily, so far only people from the Smith Family and the Sampton Family know about this, so even though it’s a broken engagement, it didn’t cause much of a stir.
"What do I do if I want to praise how decisive and swift the Smith’s uncle and aunt are in handling things?" Jane Sampson stood there, unable to suppress the urge to laugh.
"Then laugh." James Black responded indifferently, thinking of what Bright Sampton said about last night’s dinner scene, James added, "Indeed, you should laugh."
"It’s a bit unexpected, after all, by the end of last night’s dinner, the Smith Family hadn’t shown any sign, this family is really good at pretending." Jane Sampson didn’t hold back her praise for the Smith Family, "But as for that Second Young Master Smith, I could tell he didn’t like Julie Sampton from yesterday. Last night, he didn’t say a word throughout, except for taking two glances at Julie Sampton at the beginning, and afterwards, he even skimped on his gaze."
"In these wealthy businessman families taking a daughter-in-law, the requirements for the eldest daughter-in-law are quite high, and although not as high for the second daughter-in-law, it’s not like they pick anyone off the streets like trash." Jane Sampson spread her hands, "To discuss the matter factually, if I were Second Young Master Smith’s parents and grandparents, given Julie Sampton’s personality shown last night, as long as I don’t want to sabotage my son, I would never agree to this marriage."
Last night, out of respect for her grandparents and the guests from the Smith Family, Jane Sampson had been accommodating towards Julie Sampton.
But it was her, the foster daughter’s tolerance, that made Julie Sampton become someone very good at causing trouble.
Perhaps it was also because Julie Sampton gave the Smith Family the impression of being a troublemaker, so after they went back last night they might have hired someone to investigate Julie Sampton, which then led to Second Young Master Smith hastily leaving Capital Province at midnight.
Jane Sampson was curious whether the Smith Family had found out Julie Sampton came back to the Sampton Family later on, or whether they found out about Julie Sampton’s affairs with David Chip.
To cancel this marriage contract, the Smith Family lost an ancient painting worth tens of millions, as well as a set of valuable jewelry.
This shows their determination to annul the engagement.
"No matter what, I really feel happy about this outcome," Jane Sampson said cheerfully as she headed into the bathroom, "I guess Julie Sampton must be both angry and delighted right now."
Julie Sampton didn’t want to get married, Jane Sampson had a vague feeling it was because of that David Chip.
But, Julie Sampton’s own reluctance to marry and being rejected and having the marriage called off are two different things; Julie Sampton, who is so proud, must be furious.
"If Julie Sampton brings up the shares that grandma and grandpa gave you again, just return them." James Black said suddenly, "If the Sampton Family can’t even manage a Julie Sampton, then there’s no need for you to continue managing the Sampton Family’s company for them."
