Chapter 382
The next day, back at Swinton, a convoy of luxury cars drove into Park Palace in a grandiose display.
As their procession moved through the streets, it left a lasting impression of power and splendor.
By the entrance, the entire Harmon family had been waiting, with Jessica in the lead.
As the vehicles came to a stop, Jayla, who was dressed in luxurious clothing, was the first to disembark
with an arrogant look on her face.
“Jayla, you’re here! Please, come in.” Jessica greeted her with a smile and a welcoming attitude. The
person she was greeting was Tyler’s sister. Her standing among the entire Grant family was not to be
taken lightly.
Jayla nodded in response. “Jessica, long time no see. Where’s Natasha? Why don’t I see her?”
“She’s inside getting ready. She won’t take much longer,” Jessica explained with a smile.
“Jayla, I prepared something for you when I found out you were visiting. Have a look.” At that moment,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQuentin, who was standing beside them, took out a sapphire the size of an egg and passed it to her
with both hands. Jayla was not only gorgeous, but she also came from a powerful family. That was why
he knew she was the best match for him. Naturally, he wouldn’t give up the chance to leave a good
impression.
It was his belief that every woman was weak against jewelry.
Jayla glanced at it. “Thanks.” However, instead of receiving it herself, she had the maid take it and put
it away.
“Uh…” As he took in her disinterested look, the corners of his mouth twitched. He purchased that
sapphire from some Amberson woman for more than a hundred million dollars. He had spent quite a
fortune to impress the gorgeous woman and was aggrieved at her reaction.
“I should have gotten something cheaper,” Quentin silently mumbled.
“Jayla, tea is almost ready. Let’s head in first.” Jessica smoothed things over and invited the entourage
inside. After they took their seats, she asked, “Jayla, may I know what brings you to Swinton this time?
“Jessica, in truth, I’m here regarding my brother’s wedding.” She drank a sip of tea and continued,
According to the marriage agreement, there are around 20 days left before the union between the
Harmons and the Grants. I’m just wondering how the preparations are going.”
“There is no need to worry. The Harmons‘ annual family gathering will be in a few days. We’ll be
making arrangements during the gathering,” Jessica replied with a smile.
“That would be the best.” Jayla nodded and changed the subject. “However, I’ve been hearing rumors
lately that Natasha has a boyfriend. I wonder if they are true.”
Jessica’s expression froze slightly with her words before she dismissed the idea with a wave of her
hand. “That’s not true, of course. You shouldn’t listen to gossip like that. Besides, who could compare
to your brother in the entire seven provinces of Balerno?
“That’s good to hear. You should be aware that my brother is deeply devoted to Natasha, and he

rumors, there’s no guarantee how he would retaliate.” Her words carried a hint of threat as she
warned.
“Please don’t worry. It is inevitable for our families to come together. I have faith the wedding will be
held according to schedule.” Jessica smiled assuringly.
“Great!” Jayla raised her brows. “My brother will be back in two days. He will also be personally
attending the Harmons‘ annual gathering to ask for the bride’s hand. I’m here to inform you of this
in advance.”
“No problem. We will make all the necessary arrangements.” Jessica nodded with a smile.
While they were talking, Natasha, who had finally finished getting ready, walked out of her bedroom.
“Natasha, you’re here. Sit down. We were just discussing your marriage with Tyler-”
Natasha raised her hand and interrupted her. “I heard everything. Jayla, my apologies in advance. I’m
afraid we won’t be able to go through with this marriage.”
