Chapter 185: Chapter 185: Trading Marriage for Marriage

Ella Weaver blushed deeply, "Yes, I saw the photo, he’s very handsome. He just returned from a foreign university not long ago, saying he is preparing to inherit the family business."

"Oh? Whose son is he?"

"It’s..."

Ella Weaver glanced at Isabella Weaver, and slightly raised her voice, "From the Hunter Family, they say he’s Harry Hunter’s younger brother!"

Isabella Weaver looked over sharply, her eyes full of undisguised surprise. Harry Hunter has a brother? His brother is going to inherit the Hunter Family’s company?

Rose Parker also sat on the sofa, her well-maintained face full of gentle kindness, but the words she spoke undermined the compassionate aura she had carefully crafted. "Isabella is going to break off her engagement with the Hunter Family. We worked hard to establish ties with them, we can’t break them easily. Having Ella marry the Hunter Family’s youngest son is truly unfortunate, it puts Ella in a difficult position."

Reese Renfrew sneered inwardly, with the Weaver Family’s background, Ella Weaver marrying into the Hunter Family is clearly reaching upwards. The Weaver Family has been meticulously trying to forge connections, and Ella herself is evidently thrilled, yet Rose Parker insists on pretending it’s a hardship!

But her face showed nothing, and she uttered a few polite niceties before joining everyone for breakfast.

Christopher Weaver was also very pleased with this marriage arrangement, thinking it swept away the gloom of recent days, he felt refreshed and, unusually, smiled at Isabella Weaver, "Don’t stay so close to your cousin, you’ll have plenty of time after you marry, come over here and eat!"

Isabella Weaver’s eyes were a sea of indifference, without any response.

Which eye of his saw that she was close with Alexander Parker? If Alexander wasn’t holding onto her tightly, she would have left ages ago!

The Weaver Family is essentially using her marriage to exchange for Ella Weaver’s marriage now!

How can such a coincidence exist in the world, she divorces Harry Hunter, and they introduce Harry’s brother to her sister?

This is clearly part of a deal!

Christopher Weaver seemed to be in an extraordinarily good mood today, he put food and drinks on the sofa where the two were sitting, "Alexander, persuade your cousin. She took care of you all night and hasn’t had a sip of water, she’s surely starving now, you two should eat a bit."

Alexander Parker immediately felt distressed, "Cousin, eat a little, you’re already skinny, you need to eat more nutritious food."

He tried to persuade earnestly for a while, offering a glass of juice to Isabella Weaver, "Little Isabella, be good, have a sip."

Isabella Weaver was indeed thirsty and hungry, being held, coaxed, and persuaded by him, she really had no choice, took the juice and drank it, "Let go of me, I’ll eat on my own."

"If I let go of you, you’re not allowed to leave."

"Yes, I won’t leave."

"Alright then."

As soon as Alexander Parker loosened his grip, Isabella Weaver dashed towards the door without a second thought.

But Alexander Parker was quicker, he pulled her back fiercely, furiously saying, "Cousin, you’re lying to me? Trying to escape again! I knew you would run!"

He wanted to say more, but the person in his arms gradually went limp, unable to stand at all.

His eyes couldn’t see, and he panicked, "Isabella! What’s wrong?"

"That cup of juice..."

Isabella Weaver’s consciousness was already muddled, she wanted to answer Alexander Parker but found herself unable to even open her mouth, completely unable to produce a sound.

Her head felt as heavy as if filled with lead, she gently collapsed.

If not for Alexander Parker holding her, she likely would have hit the hard floor solidly.

Before losing consciousness, she heard Alexander Parker shouting sternly, "Who did this?!"
