Chapter 3 Three

Mr. Usha sighed a few times and went out to sit on the sofa in the living room. He was still worried. He was afraid that his grandson's temper would ruin his engagement with the Browns.

A woman came down from upstairs. She looked to be nearly fifty years old, but her skin was smooth, rosy, and had few wrinkles. Looking at her style of dress, one could tell that she was the wife of the president of the largest chain of stores in the country. Her name was Lowa, the wife of Viktor Romano.

Lowa sat down opposite her father-in-law with a worried look and asked, "Dad, why did you get up so early today?"

Mr. Usha coughed lightly a few times and slowly said,

"Look at your son, he's already 28 years old and still refuses to get married. He hasn't brought any girls home to meet his family for many years. How can I be at ease? And Cayle and Rhett are not young anymore. I know that you've been struggling to take care of this family alone for many years. Your mother-in-law died early, and our family is full of men who only know how to work in the company. It's time to find someone to share the burden with you."

Lowa's face was full of worry for her father-in-law's health, he kept coughing violently, his expression was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with unspeakable sadness. He must be very worried. At this rate, she was afraid that the old man would get sick.

Lowa gently replied to her father-in-law: "Dad, please take care of your health. I will find a way to advise the boy. Don't worry too much."

In the CEO's office, Dominic stood looking out the glass door, holding a cup of coffee and thinking pensively. In fact, since breaking up with Lillie, he had never paid attention to another girl. To be more precise, he had lost faith in love. Dominic and Lillie's relationship lasted for three years; he still truly loved her, giving her all the best. One day, she suddenly stole his design ideas and sold them to a competitor, then took the money abroad with another man until now, whose whereabouts are now unknown. Dominic took a long time to get over this.

At the Brown house, Cynthia pulled her mother into the room and closed the door.

"The other day, I accidentally heard my grandfather and that man talking to each other. If this wedding goes through, we will have enough money to pay off the debt, have enough left to live, and even have 5% of the Romano Group's shares."

Lawrence's eyes widened, staring at her daughter, her mouth stammering:

"You mean you want to marry into the Romano family?"

Cynthia, who was always cunning and deceitful, curled her lips slightly, looked deep into Lawrence's eyes, leaned close to her mother's ear, and whispered:

"Of course not, how could I marry that cold guy? But you forgot, our family also has Rosabella. Although she is not a biological child, she also has the surname Brown."

Lawrence seemed hesitant: "Is that okay?"

Cynthia was sinister, she kept saying that her fiancé was cold and pushed her sister away, forcing this marriage to happen:

"Mom, why not? Although the Brown family didn't give birth to her, they raised her. You just need to find an excuse to let her repay the favor. The engagement is between the two families, and she is the eldest daughter; of course, it's fine. Just marry her to their family, the money and shares are ours. If she dies of loneliness in the Romano family, we can only blame it on her bad luck."

Lawrence had always been blindly indulgent with her daughter, so no matter how unreasonable or immoral the proposal was, she would still nod in agreement.

Cynthia opened the door and pulled her mother into the living room just as her grandfather and father were sitting and talking. She pretended to be pitiful and ran to sit next to her grandfather, crying:

"I'm still young, it's a pity that I got married too early, I didn't have time to repay my grandfather and parents. I still want to stay and take care of everyone. Rosabella has worked hard in the past, and now she has a good chance to marry into a rich family. I don't want to fight. Or should I let Rosabella replace me as the Romano family's daughter-in-law? She's divorced anyway. She's single now."

Cynthia looked pitiful, crying and choking. Mr. Zohar objected:

"No, Rosabella has suffered a lot since she was young, and she has worked hard for this family for many years. She can't be married off."

Lawrence interjected to defend her daughter. "After all, Rosabella has experience in marriage matters, but Cynthia is only twenty years old, still young and immature."

Dawson Brown was also shocked to hear his wife and daughter say such words, so he objected: "No, this is a marriage contract between two families, so Rosabella can't participate in it."

"So you and Grandpa would rather let me suffer, to protect Rosabella." Cynthia jumped up.

Seeing this, Mr. Zohar also felt sorry for his granddaughter, he also didn't want to let his granddaughter suffer. Moreover, City A was quite far from City B. If she got married, she would see her less. He sighed and slowly said:

"Alright, if you don't want to marry into the Romano family, then we'll cancel the engagement. There's no way Rosabella can replace Cynthia."

"We can't break off the engagement, Grandpa..." Cynthia said in panic.

At that moment, Rosabella returned to the front yard. Cynthia ran out, hugged Rosabella, and cried. Rosabella hurriedly asked:

"Cynthia, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"

Cynthia was still crying, and quickly pulled Rosabella: "You come with me."

Rosabella felt that today was a bit unusual. Cynthia suddenly became gentle towards her. When she entered, Rosabella glanced at everyone and guessed that something had happened. Seeing everyone's sad faces, Cynthia also cried, so she asked:

"Grandpa, Mom, and Dad, is there something wrong with us?"
