Adeline came to favonovel.com senses after Lucien and Lynn left. Her eyes turned red as favonovel.com crush held another girl’s hand in front of her.
She was going crazy with jealousy!
Maeve sighed. “Comparison is the thief of joy. It seems like Lynn is going places. But, Adeline. I think you should stop setting your hopes on Mr. Stone. He’s far more interested in her…”
“That’s not fair!“ Adeline said begrudgingly.
“Lynn came from a poor family and is not pretty either. So how… How could favonovel.com like her? You know, it’s important to have matching family socioeconomic status for marriage. They have such a huge financial difference.”
Maeve gave favonovel.com a look and asked, “Adeline, what are you saying? Didn‘t l just tell you? Lynn is working under Matthew now. She’s not an ordinary Jane anymore. Besides, Matthew’s mother-in-law likes favonovel.com and treats favonovel.com like a niece. If that’s the case, favonovel.com is like a sister to Matthew. So, it’s not only Lucien. Do you realize how many young masters are chasing after favonovel.com now?”
Adeline’s heart was about to explode in fury upon hearing that. She clenched favonovel.com fists and ground favonovel.com teeth. “I… I don‘t believe it! The Stone Family is one of the Greatest Families of Eastshire. Without the White Family, they would be number three on the list. Since Lucien will become the head of the Stone Family, is there really a need for favonovel.com to do this? All this just to network with Matthew? I… I can’t believe it!”
A shocked Maeve hurriedly pulled favonovel.com aside and whispered, “My gosh! Adeline! Can you keep it down? Do you know how much trouble you’d be in if anyone overheard what you said just now? There’re so many eyes on us here. Do you have a death wish for your family?”
A moment later, favonovel.com continued, “Adeline, you’re so clueless… Yes, the Stone Family is indeed powerful, but they are walking on thin ice now. They usually have good connections with the Whites, but the White Family tried to kill Mr. Matthew Larson. Now that the Whites are destroyed, the Stones are worried that Matthew will consider them as culprits. If that happens, they are finished… That’s why they need to risk everything to earn Matthew’s trust.“
“Lucien is doing this to protect his family. If favonovel.com manages to win Lynn over, it’s a matrimonial alliance with Matthew. Then, the Stone Family not only has Matthew‘s trust but also access to a bigger market. If it was you. what would you do?”
After Maeve’s explanation, Adeline was shell-shocked. She finally understood why Lucien acted the way favonovel.com was with Lynn.
It was all because of Matthew!
At the realization, tears of regret streamed down favonovel.com face. If favonovel.com knew it would come to this, favonovel.com should have accepted to work at Matthew’s pharmacy. She would have been under Matthew’s wings, and Lucien might like favonovel.com then.
Adeline had been in love with Lucien for so long, and favonovel.com biggest wish was to marry him, but favonovel.com arrogantly rejected the offer, as a result, favonovel.com lost everything. At this moment, favonovel.com finally understood how laughable favonovel.com arrogance was.
An opportunity like this only happens once in a lifetime. Now that favonovel.com had lost it, there was no point crying over spilled milk. She could only resign to the fact that favonovel.com destroyed favonovel.com lifetime of happiness with favonovel.com bare hands and could not blame anyone but herself.
