Chapter 1415: Chapter 1329: People from the Heath Family are Too Detestable
"She was held up by something and is probably still on her way." Gary White looked Joanna Lawrence up and down, and said gently, "Joanna, you look very beautiful today. This dress suits you very well."
"What’s going on?" Yannick Luther, who overheard their conversation, looked baffled and asked, "Sister-in-law, what’s the relationship between you and Mr. White?"
The White family hadn’t announced publicly that they had found their daughter.
Ashton Heath hadn’t told Yannick Luther and others about Joanna Lawrence being the daughter the White family was looking for.
So, not many people knew about the relationship between Joanna Lawrence and the White family.
Of course, Yannick Luther didn’t know about it either.
"It’s a long story, I’ll tell you when we have time," Gary White didn’t intend to explain to Yannick Luther at this moment.
The group chatted for a while.
Rebecca Kelloway stood aside, like an outsider.
She had never been treated so unfairly, nor had she ever been so neglected.
Watching the crowd surrounding Joanna, with Joanna at the center, while no one paid any attention to her, Rebecca felt humiliated at that moment.
She looked at Joanna with resentment in her eyes.
At this time, Lady Patrice came over.
"Rebecca, come with me. Your aunt Mrs. Parkins’ son has returned from abroad and is also attending the banquet tonight. I’ll take you over to meet him," said Lady Patrice as she tried to take Rebecca’s hand.
"Mom, I don’t want to go," Rebecca resisted and struggled.
With resentment in her eyes, some redness around them, she looked at her mother and said, "Mom, I don’t want to stay here anymore, I want to go home."
"We’ve just arrived, why are you leaving already? Your aunt’s son is excellent. I’ve checked him out for you, and he’s a handsome young fellow. Although he’s a bit short, he’s not much shorter than you. As long as his character is good and he treats you well, height won’t be a problem. Come and meet him with me first," Lady Patrice knew her daughter was upset, but given the Kelloway family’s current situation, she had no choice.
The daughter was important.
But the company was even more important.
In order to save the company, even if she was reluctant, she had to make some sacrifices.
Ashton Heath proposed a condition: as long as they could marry their daughter off within a month, he would be willing to help the Kelloway family survive.
The Heath family was now the Kelloway family’s only hope.
Kelloway Group could not go bankrupt.
Thus, they had to marry Rebecca off as quickly as possible, according to Ashton’s demands.
That was the reason Rebecca had been going on frequent blind dates recently.
They had thought it would be a simple matter.
But they hadn’t expected...
People nowadays were extremely practical. Those families who had been fawning over the Kelloway family, hoping to marry their daughter, now avoided them as much as possible.
No one dared to marry the Kelloway princess now.
At this thought, Lady Patrice also showed a trace of resentment in her eyes.
The Heaths were so hateful.
After so many years of friendship between the two families, they had now forced her daughter into this situation.
The most hateful person was Ashton Heath.
Rebecca had liked him for so many years. He wasn’t moved by it, but now he was even forcing them to marry Rebecca off.
Lady Patrice felt heartbroken for her daughter but had to compromise.
She lowered her voice and persuaded Rebecca, "Rebecca, just do as your mother says. Regardless of whether you like him or not, go and meet him first. If you want to leave later, we’ll leave first."
Rebecca clenched her lips.
