Chapter 1428

[ 650 words ]

“Come to think of it, if they hadn’t been so biased and handed that phenomenal engagement to an outsider, Yolande wouldn’t even need to go on blind dates!”

“We’re doing this for Yolande’s future. The fact that they aren’t grateful is bad enough, but to actually look down on the match?”

“The Churchill family has absolutely no conscience!”

Olga complained endlessly.

She was incredibly used to badmouthing the Churchills.

Because even though Tiffany had married into wealth, the Byron family hadn’t managed to siphon off nearly as much money as they wanted.

The Churchills were stingy and selfish, totally unwilling to elevate their in-laws.

The Byrons had resented them for years. Their initial fawning had long since curdled into bitter complaints.

“Mom, please stop. The Churchill family isn’t just heartless. That bastard Owen actually wants to divorce me!”

When Tiffany dropped that bomb, the entire Byron family froze in shock.

Beatrice furrowed her brow, feigning deep concern. “Tiffany, what happened? Why on earth would Owen want a divorce?”

“You sacrificed so much to give him a son and a daughter. Now that Yolande is grown and Seb is about to take his college entrance exams, he wants to just kick you to the curb?”

Though Beatrice sounded incredibly sympathetic, inwardly, she was practically cheering.

She was sick to death of her sister-in-law coming home and acting like a queen, parading around as if the entire Byron family owed their dignity to her.

Beatrice had been resentful for years.

But she had swallowed her pride because they needed Tiffany to scrape together scraps of wealth for their own kids.

Yet, Tiffany was a vapid, empty-headed woman. What right did she have to marry into such spectacular wealth?

If Beatrice had been the one to marry Owen, she wouldn’t have had to suck up to a spoiled sister-in-law or bow down to her in-laws at home.

Beatrice had loathed Tiffany for a long time.

While it was a pity the Byron family would lose their meal ticket if the divorce went through, the sheer joy- of seeing Tiffany discarded was almost worth it.

She couldn’t wait to see if this woman would dare act so high and mighty once she lost everything!

Completely blind to Beatrice’s

malicious joy, Tiffany thought her

sister mlaw was genuinely outraged on her behalf. Without missing a beat, she spilled everything that had happened the previous night.

She capped it off by viciously cursing Owen’s name.

Beatrice nodded along, chiming in with insults, while internally mocking Tiffany for being an absolute idiot.

To force her daughter into an arranged marriage in front of the entire Churchill family during a gathering?

If the Churchills hadn’t stepped in to protect Yolande, were they supposed to just help Tiffany push the girl into a fire pit?

Sure, that divorced older man might be a catch for an ordinary family, but he was absolutely beneath a daughter of the Churchill family!

It was entirely expected that the Churchills despised the match.

Beatrice clearly remembered

warning Tiffany to keep the blind

date discreet to handle it quietly to avoid conflict, and to keep the

of the Churchill family entirely in the dark.

But no, Tiffany had to make a massive spectacle of it, practically ensuring the whole world knew exactly what she was scheming!

This idiot had used up a lifetime of good luck just marrying Owen and having two decent kids.

Yolande and Sebastian were bright and accomplished-far more successful than Beatrice’s own children, which was a sore spot that constantly ate at her.

But now, if Tiffany alienated her children and actually got divorced from Owen, she would be absolutely nothing!

Hiding her smirk, Beatrice patted Tiffany’s shoulder in mock comfort. “Tiffany, don’t talk like that. You two have history.”

“Owen is just temporarily blinded by anger. Once he calms down, he’ll remember everything you’ve done for him.”

“Stop cursing him out. You two are a team; just talk it through.”

“Maybe Owen just doesn’t understand your true intentions. If he knew you were doing all of this for Yolande and Seb, he’d never ask for a divorce.”
