Chapter 4 selection

Back then, every family in H city with daughters of a suitable age received a matchmaking invitation from the Dawsons. And so, in order to increase the chances of becoming in-laws with the Dawsons, the Mu family sent not only Yasmine there but also forced Haya back to attend this matchmaking session.

Afraid that marriage would become a stumbling block in her path to stardom, the former was very reluctant to attend the session and, thus, she left with her mother, who was unwilling to force her against her will, before the man could even show up.

After Haya was selected to become Huo's wife and upon seeing how rich and handsome he was, she immediately regretted her decision and insisted that the other woman file a divorce with him so that she could marry him instead.

She felt that the man was hers.

If she had not left midway, she would surely have been the one selected and married to him!

The woman who was having her collar tugged at frowned in disdain as she grabbed the other's hands and flung them aside.

Yasmine stumbled to the ground and practically went mad with anger. "How dare this b*tch push me?!"

"What about it?" taunted Haya condescendingly.

B*tch? She's the one who's a downright-right-to-the-core b*tch, alright?!

"Look at her, Grandma!" she screeched.

Alas, the old lady not only did not chide Haya, but rather, she harshly reprimanded her, "Silence!"

Usually well-behaved, this granddaughter of hers could simply not keep her temper in check when she met Haya.

In the face of her stern rebuke, the young woman no longer dared utter a sound...

Only when the latter quietened down did the old lady look at Haya and ordered, "Both your father and I think you should return Huo to your sister. So we want Yasmine to move in here to stay while you help her to claim his heart!"

It was not only Yasmine who thought that the man was hers. The rest of the family did so as well. Still, they knew that it was impossible for such a man like Huo to marry as told.

Therefore, they came up with the idea of letting her stay in his house first to get closer to the man while Haya tried to match them together. Once he developed feelings for Yasmine, the other woman would then step down from her title as his wife and let the former replace her.

She was struck dumb when she got what the elder woman was saying. Out of all the thick-skinned people she had met before, her grandmother was the worst one of all!

She had been unwilling to attend the matchmaking session from the start but was forced to do so when they threatened her with her granny's safety. Now, however, everything was destroyed just because Yasmine wanted to marry her rich and handsome husband. The latter shamelessly saw the man as hers and demanded that she return the man to her.

She could understand the reason behind her brainless sister's absurd behavior and illogical thinking, but what she could not get was how her grandmother and father actually thought the same, too!

Just what exactly was on their mind? How did they come to the conclusion that Huo belonged to Yasmine? Where did they get the confidence to reckon that he would surely choose her sister after choosing her?

Also, even though she did not want to admit this at all, Yasmine was her half-sister. This meant that the man was her brother-in-law. Never mind that they did not find it shameless and not stop her from climbing onto her brother-in-law's bed, but they even encouraged her, his wife, to help her sister climb onto her own husband's bed!

D*mn it! She felt a burning urge to spew vulgarities at them.

Godd*mnit!

That's it!

"Grandma, even though I know that you're used to being so thick-skinned and shameless, you've gone too far this time! There are some lines that one, as a human, shouldn't cross!" It felt like her bottom line had been continuously hitting a new low.

"Did you hear what she's saying, Grandma?! She dared to call you thick-skinned and shameless!" Yasmine immediately grasped the chance to complain to her grandmother.

The elderly woman's face darkened at that. "Haya, it looks like you don't wish for your granny to get better!"
