Chapter 258 How Embarrassing!
Hearing that, Belle was so scared that her back bent and she collapsed on the chair.
She opened her mouth and took a long time to calm down.
“Charle, don’t be angry. You know what kind of person I am. I always do bad things with good intentions. I just kindly hope that Cierra can marry into a good family. It’s not that I want to hurt her. Stop scolding me. I won’t mention it again, okay?”
Belle tried to pick up some food for Charle in an attempt to ease the atmosphere.
However, as soon as she raised her hand, she was glared at by Charle and she did not
dare to move.
Cierra didn’t miss Belle’s little trick and snorted.
Bullying the weak and fearing the strong was human nature.
Cierra filled a bowl of soup for Sarah and slowly said what she had been holding back for a long time.
“Belle, thank you for your kindness, but I think that ordinary people should care about their children. If I remember correctly, Cherry should be a few years older than me and hasn’t gotten married yet. Since the Trevino family has this intention, why don’t you let Cherry go on a blind date with Mr. Trevino?”
“I already have someone I like. How can I go on a blind date with another man?”
Without waiting for Belle to reply, Cherry spoke first.
As she spoke, she glanced at Jaquan next to her with obvious intentions.
However, there was still William between her and Jaquan. Naturally, her gaze would fall
on William first before she could look at Jaquan.
William’s action was exaggerated. “Wow, Cherry, you actually like me? Don’t be like this. Getting married with relatives is easy to give birth to fools. It’s scary!”
“Who likes you?”
Hearing William’s words, Cherry’s face turned red, and she wished she could stand up
and stamp her feet.
William deliberately said loudly, “If you don’t like me, why are you looking at me?”
“I…”
Cherry pouted and poked the bottom of the bowl with her fork, unwilling to speak.
Yes, she liked Jaquan.
But was it wrong to like her cousin?
Besides, medicine was so advanced now. Who said that their child must be a fool?
Moreover, Cherry didn’t really want to have a baby. Anyway, Jaquan already had a child.
Cherry thought. “Although the child is an illegitimate child that his mother is unwilling to raise, he still has Jaquan’s blood. It is not impossible for me to raise him reluctantly.
“If possible, I want to give birth to a child and then drive this bastard out.”
Cherry thought happily and even began to name her future baby.
However, the dream was quickly shattered by William.
“You what? If you are not looking at me, can it be that you are looking at my elder
brother or Harold?”
William decided to reveal all Cherry’s thoughts to the public without showing any
mercy.
“Don’t think about my big brother. He is the same as me. As for Harold… Wow, no way. He is so young. You can’t covert him.”
“William!”
William’s words were getting more and more excessive. Cherry couldn’t help biting her lip and interrupting him. Her fierce eyes seemed to want to pick up the bowl on the table and throw it directly at William’s head.
But she didn’t dare.
She didn’t dare to fight at the Barton family’s table.
She didn’t dare to admit that she liked Jaquan.
Cherry’s eyes turned red. She lowered her head and poked her bowl, not saying another This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
word.
Unexpectedly, Belle did not speak up to defend Cherry this time.
William didn’t care about it. Anyway, no matter what the mother and daughter said, he
dared to refute them.
What surprised William was that his father didn’t say a word to him and just let him bully his “good cousin” and make her cry.
It was really shocking.
His father, who had always disliked him, actually stopped educating him no matter what William did, which really made William a little shocked.
The atmosphere was eased by Jaquan’s presence.
Jaquan said, “Keep your mouth shut. If you talk too much, even if it is your birthday
today, you have to go out and stand still. You can come in after everyone finishes
eating.”
Then, Jaquan looked at Cherry.
“Cherry, I apologize to you on William’s behalf for his rude words just now, In addition, I’m very happy to hear that you have someone you like. I hope that you can get married as soon as possible. As your cousin, I will prepare a generous gift to congratulate you on your marriage,”
It could be said that Jaquan had tactfully rejected Cherry’s idea and cut off her thoughts.
Later, Jaquan’s eyes finally fell on Belle.
“Aunt, we don’t know if you are worried about my sister’s marriage out of kindness or not, but I agree with my father. Even if my sister doesn’t get married and stays in the Barton family for the rest of her life, we can afford to raise her.”
“L…”
Belle tried to refute, but was interrupted by Jaquan before she could finish her words.
Like his father, Jaquan’s sense of oppression of a superior didn’t allow anyone to speak
first.
Even though Jaquan was young, others did not dare to look straight into his eyes.
His gaze darkened slightly as he stared straight at Belle. “You heard what Cherry said just now. She has someone she likes, so she rejected the Trevino family. But when you arranged the marriage for my sister, did you consider if my sister had someone she liked? Or have you considered if she’s willing to accept this marriage? Even if my sister really needs to go on a blind date, the matter should be confirmed after the man and Cierra agree, right?”
It was too rude to bring others to the Barton family for no reason.
It was already very polite of the Barton family not to drive them all out.
On the contrary, Belle was taking advantage of the situation to ask for credit.
If Belle had the illusion that she was a great hero, no one knew what would happen in
the future.
Charle had already lost his temper at the dining table just now, so it would be better to
make it clear in front of everyone.
There would not be any trouble in the future if he made it clear, including his good
cousin’s feelings for him.
As soon as Jaquan finished speaking, the dining table fell completely silent.
William didn’t dare to make trouble anymore. He put down his fork and enjoyed the awkward silence quietly.
But there were not only his family members at the table, but also the two old men in the main seats.
It was not appropriate to stay in a deadlock, so Charle took the initiative to raise his glass.
“All right, it is fine that we have solve the conflict and misunderstanding. Have a good
meal at the dining table and don’t make any more nonsense. Today is William’s birthday. Be happy. Let’s put other things aside and have a good meal.”
Charle raised his glass and took a sip, indicating that they should let it go.
At the same time, Charle looked at the two elders sitting in the main seats and said, “I didn’t treat you as outsiders. I told you some family affairs in front of you. Please don’t
mind.”
“No, I don’t mind. I also treat Cierra as my family. We are a family!”
Freddy also raised his glass and said politely.
It was also because he was in someone else’s house. Otherwise, with Freddy’s temper,
he would scold Belle with William.
Although Dr. Charles was a little alienated, he only cared about the food on the table. He had never cared about anything else.
Dr. Charles chimed in, “Let’s not argue anymore. It’s inappropriate if we argue since there are so many delicious dishes!
