That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 177: This Makes No Sense



The three of them discussed for a while and immediately arranged to meet Lily and her husband at Wangjiang Pavilion in the evening.

When Lily and Samuel arrived, Emma’s family was already seated in the private room. Emma had her head lowered, looking very downcast, while the other two had grim expressions.

Seeing them come in, Emma barely managed a forced smile, “You’re here.”

After speaking, the smile on her face gradually faded, as if she had suffered a great grievance.

Lily looked puzzled, “Emma, what’s wrong? Did someone bully you? Tell me.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Beatrice’s voice rang out, “It’s those rumors outside, saying that our Emma is like a clown trying to climb up the social ladder. She’s been crying at home every day.”

Emma quickly denied it, “No, I know Victor didn’t mean it that way. Those things people are saying outside, I just listen to them and don’t take them to heart…”

As she spoke, her eyes reddened again.

Beatrice looked at her with helplessness and heartache, “You’ve stayed by Victor’s side for so many years. We understand your feelings, but outsiders don’t. Victor…”

At this point, Beatrice lowered her voice and said to her daughter, “If Victor had feelings for you, how could he let you suffer such grievances? He might be able to bear it, but as his mother, I can’t. Listen to me and separate from Victor.”

Their words clearly reached Lily and Samuel’s ears.

Lily frowned slightly, “What’s going on? Is it because of those rumors outside? I’ll have them dealt with right away!”Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Hearing this, Beatrice raised her head with a bitter smile, “How can they be dealt with? Now everyone in Seacrest is talking about it. The marriage between Emma and Victor has been rumored for so many years, but it’s always been one-sided on Emma’s part. They say that all these years, the Thornton family has only been able to stand because of the Leer family. Now that Victor has a new love interest, there’s no news about the marriage contract between our families. They say we’re holding Victor back…”

“What nonsense!” Lily’s face darkened slightly.

Beatrice forced a smile, “They’re not entirely wrong. All these years, it’s been Emma alone waiting for Victor. We both know what’s really going on with the marriage contract between our families. Victor has already given us enough. Since he has no intention towards Emma, we shouldn’t hold him back any longer.”

After speaking, she looked at her daughter with heartache again, “But Emma… I’ve tried to persuade her for days, but she can’t let go. As her mother, I can’t bear to see her being talked about like this. It’s better to end the pain quickly. Today, I’ll make the decision for her and annul the marriage contract between our families!”

Emma kept her head down, her body trembling slightly.

Even though her expression couldn’t be seen, her sadness was palpable.

Lily hadn’t expected them to suddenly propose annulling the marriage contract and immediately changed her expression, “This makes no sense! The marriage contract between Emma and Victor has been set for so many years. How can it be canceled just like that?”

“Only by canceling the marriage contract between our families will the rumors outside stop,” Beatrice said bitterly. “Don’t worry about us. I’ll help Emma move on and find her next happiness as soon as possible.”

Lily was silent for a few seconds before speaking coldly, “There’s another way to solve this!”

Before Beatrice could respond, Lily had already picked up her bag and stood up, “I only recognize Emma as my daughter-in-law. Don’t worry; I’ll handle this matter!”

With that, she left without looking back.
