Ed was anxious. "Mr. Atkinson, we talked about this before and you all agreed back then. Why did you go back on
your words?"
At this moment, another woman walked to the door. "Why are you wasting your ttalking with him? Ed, you
cat the right tand saved us a trip. Please go back. There'll be no wedding tomorrow!" This woman was
Laura, Wendy's sister.
Ed's expression changed sharply. "Why? We've already talked about this, and my house is all set up. Why aren't
we getting married tomorrow?"
Ed's face turned pale as he gritted his teeth, "Even if we don't get married, I-I still have to know why. Ask Wendy
to cout and | will ask her personally!"

Laura waved her hand. "You don't need to ask her because this is the conclusion of our family's discussion. Do
you want to know why? Fine! Lettell you this. We are sisters, but when | got married, my husband cto
pickup in a Porsche, and many Mercedes-Benzes followed behind. What about you? What cars will you come
to pick up Wendy in?"
Ed was startled. He wanted to rent a BMW, but his cousin had gotten him a Volkswagen Passat. It was not
comparable to Laura's husband's car at all.
Laura snickered. "Also, when I got married, my husband gave us a bride price of 300,000. What about you? From
the beginning to now, what else did you give us except for 1,000 bucks? When | got married, my husband rented
the entire Heavens Hotel and hosted more than one hundred tables, while you just hired a few rural women to
host dinner at home. The guests don't even have a place to sit at. What kind of a banquet is this?"
"After | got married, | lived in my husband's villa. After Wendy marries you, she has to live in the dilapidated rural
house that your family rented. My husband is the son of the village chief, and he runs a contracting company
that makes millions a year. What about you? With two sick people, your dad has to work on the construction site
to buy medicine. My sister has to work to support you, let alone receive any allowance from you! My dad is the
head of the workshop at the factory and will soon be promoted to assistant manager of the factory. One of his
daughters married into a well-off family, while the other married into such a poor family. If others found out,
wouldn't it embarrass my dad?"
Every word of Laura was like an awl, piercing Ed's heart.
Ed gritted his teeth and clenched his hands, his nails digging into his flesh.
After a long silence, he nodded slowly. "I understand now. Sorry to interrupt!"
Laura sneered, "At least you're self-aware. Lettell you, the son of the director, who works at the factory my
dad is working at, has fallen in love with my sister. They're well-matched in social and economic status for

live your life quietly by yourself. Don't drag others down."
Then, Ed turned and left silently without another word.
Matthew grabbed him and said softly, "Ed, shouldn't you at least ask your fiancée about her opinion? The opinion
of the bride is the most important! It doesn't matter what other people say. The most crucial thing is how she
feels about you!"
With tears in his eyes, Ed slowly shook his head. "No need. Matt, she's right. If I marry Wendy in such a condition,
| will only drag her down. I-l can't be so selfish..."
Matthew said, "But you haven't even spoken to her about this. How do you know what she thinks? You should at
least—"
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden exclamation from inside the house. "Wendy, what are you
doing?"
