NovelAppChapter 498 Melissa's tone was as firm as a rock, and her self-confidence was unshakable. In her view, no woman could match her beauty in the world of high society.
Elvis was temporarily blinded, unable to appreciate her. But she believed he would surely see her worth once he regained his sense.
Leopold was speechless. She was way too incorrigible.
Jessica's gaze hardened, becoming stern and intimidating. “Daughters of the Stirling family can’t decide their marriages. Your three older sisters were all married off through arranged matches. The family will find you a suitable husband as well.” At these words, Melissa paled. “Mother, if you want me to marry for alliance, force the Cooper family to have Elvis marry me. | won't marry anyone else.” “It's not up to you. Men propose, and women accept. If Elvis does not want to marry you, you can do nothing with it. We, the Stirling family, have our dignity to uphold,” Jessica's tone was light, but each word weighed heavily on Melissa, causing her heart to tremble with fear.
“Mother, if you force me, I'll kill myself.” Melissa threatened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJessica was unyielding. “Then go ahead. After your death, I'll adopt someone else to take your place. Your father has plenty of illegitimate daughters eager to be acknowledged by the family.” In the Stirling family, if there was no suitable legitimate daughter for marriage, an illegitimate daughter could be called back to replace her.
Scared out of her wits, Melissa didn’t even dare to ask for her allowance, jumping up from the sofa. “I... | haven't had breakfast yet. I've got to go!” She fled the scene with her tail between her legs.
Jessica sighed, feeling disappointed. She had long given up hope that Melissa would amount to anything. As long as she didn’t cause trouble, that was enough.
A special metaphysical party was held on Friday night amongst the upper crust.
The night before, Beverley had called Aurelia, inviting her to join.
“Aurelia, there will be many metaphysical experts tonight.” Aurelia was skeptical about these things, but others were firm believers.
Upon entering, she saw Megan and Melissa.
13 10.71 Chapter 498 After peeking at Evelyn's website, Megan bought several talismans and placed them in the corner of her home to enhance her marital relationship.
Recently, Leopold had been increasingly affectionate towards her, summoning her to Harmony Hill Mansion for a romantic getaway now and then.
She believed it was the power of her talismans.
Upon seeing Aurelia, Melissa's face darkened.
“Oh, look who's there! Is she also here to boost her love luck?” Megan caressed her flat belly. Although she hadn't started to show yet, Megan was already wearing maternity clothes as if she was trying to tell everyone she was pregnant.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA scornful smirk graced her face.
No matter how much Aurelia tried to boost her luck, she couldn't steal Megan's place.
“Why don’t we ask a master to kill her love luck?” Hearing Megan's words, Melissa nodded enthusiastically.
“You're right. We should nip Aurelia’s love luck in the bud and tear it up by the roots,” she said through gritted teeth.
Aurelia glanced at them and shifted her focus back.
“Right now, | don’t need to boost wealth or love luck. | just want safety.” She wanted safety for her children, for Leopold, and herself.
She hoped Leopold and Kane would be fine and Avery would be safe.
She hoped to eradicate the root of the trouble as soon as possible so she could eliminate future troubles.
Beverley wrapped an arm around her shoulder. The entire Stirling family was aware of Melissa's previous actions.
“Melissa is just too extreme. She’s stuck in a rut and refuses to come out. But you don’t need to worry. Jessica has decided to arrange a marriage for her.” Aurelia was slightly shocked, “Would she comply with her personality?” “Every daughter of the Stirling family eventually gets married off. Her three older sisters all have arranged marriages. If her father hadn't died before he could arrange her marriage, she wouldn't have been able to live such a carefree life.” Beverley sighed. “I'll be in the same situation in the future.” Aurelia patted her shoulder in comfort. “Your cousin is a reasonable man. He won't force you.” 2/3
