Chapter 1157 Marriage Proposal "Mr. Soo is handsand deeply in love with Miss Turner. They are a perfect match. It seems that it won't be long before we can attend the wedding of Miss Turner and Mr. Soo," said one woman.
Selena glanced coldly at the two women but didn't say anything.
Patrick looked at Alfie and said coldly, "Selena doesn't like you." Alfie's smile didn't waver, but his gaze dimmed slightly. He looked at Selena with a gentle tone and deep meaning, "Not all marriages stem from love. In the future... anything is possible, isn't it?" Patrick's face darkened. "Although Selena is the daughter of the Turner family, the Turner family didn't raise her for over a decade before. She has no obligation, and the Turner family has no right to demand that she fulfill this marriage contract.” Nicholas' face suddenly darkened, and his voice becstern. "Patrick, the sincerity of my Soo family has already been laid out.
The Turner family should not overstep your bounds!" "The engagement between Selena and Alfie is clearly written in the marriage contract. The Turner family may have a thousand reasons, but it is not an excuse to break off the engagement!" Nicholas looked at Patrick with a pained expression, "Alfie is your cousin. If he cannot marry Selena, he is doomed to a lonely life!" "From both a moral and logical standpoint, you shouldn't stand in the way of your cousin's marriage!" Nicholas' sudden outburst scared several young ladies, who turned pale on the spot.

If it weren't for fear of tarnishing the Turner family's reputation, she would have stepped forward and taught this shameless old man a lesson! Patrick's gaze also turned completely cold, "Don't forget, Nicholas, what the Soo family did to the Turner family in the past." "The engagement between the Turner family and the Soo family was broken off at that moment!" Nicholas’ expression remained unchanged, and he said forcefully, "Regardless of what happened in the past, the engagement between Selena and Alfie is still valid." "Unless my elder brother personally comes to break off the engagement, the engagement between the Soo family and the Turner family is legitimate." "Patrick, Selena grew up as an orphan, so she is naturally a bit willful. As a descendant of the Turner family, how can you join her in such reckless behavior and tarnish the Turner family's reputation?" "Nicholas is right," Vivian sneered, "Miss Turner may have had a valid excuse for dating other men before she knew about her engagement, but now that she's fully aware, continuing to be involved with other men is simply shameless!" "Miss Shaw is right, Miss Turner. Even though you cfrom a privileged background, you cannot openly pursue two men at once." "You may have been ignorant of your engagement for the past ten years while you were away, and it may have been forgivable to be involved with other men, but after today, you should know better." "If Miss Turner knowingly has a fiancé and still insists on being with other men, even going so far as to persuade her indebted brother to help break the engagement, it makes one question the upbringing of the Turner family..." "Miss Turner, you are engaged to another man, please spare Mr. Anderson! He is a distinguished man and should not have to bear the label of a third party because of you." "Miss Turner, | heard that you grew up in a wealthy family, and you should know what it means when two great families unite in marriage. You cannot sacrifice the Turner family for your own love and disregard the future of Mr. Turner." Many of the elite daughters of the wealthy families have long been envious and resentful of Selena, and now they have caught hold of something to accuse her of.
While envy is a factor, the true reason lies with the men.
Although Alfie is outstanding, the strict rules of the Soo family have prevented anyone from coveting the position of the Soo family's mistress.
But Osvaldo is different.
For over twenty years, he has been revered and countless aristocratic ladies have fallen for him, yet he has never shown any interest.
Everyone thought he was incapable of emotions and would never fall in love with any woman.
So even though they were not willing to accept it, they had to accept the fact that they couldn't get him.
But with Selena's appearance, that conclusion was shattered.
Osvaldo's extrindulgence and affection for Selena made a group of young ladies envious.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf Selena marries Alfie, the position of the next mistress of the Anderson family will be vacant, right? In the cutthroat world of the capital's aristocratic circle, there is no one who is kind-hearted.
As long as Selena is out of the picture, they will have a chance! Even if the chance is slim.
Whether it was Osvaldo himself or the power and wealth of the Anderson family, they were all worth all women to pursue relentlessly and take a gamble on. Therefore, for the sake of their own interests, the people of the major wealthy families were happy to see Selena and Alfie's engagement cto fruition. Even though they envied the bride price offered by the Soo family, their jealousy was mixed up like a mess in their hearts and minds! Selena listened to the numerous accusations without changing her expression and held Hattie, who was about to rush out and confront someone. Hattie angrily said, "Selena, don't listen to their nonsense. These women are just being mouthy! They need to be taught a lesson!" Selena patted her hair and said, "It's okay, | don't take it to heart." She didn't really care about these shouting voices. What she really paid attention to were those who remained silent. Selena's cold gaze swept over Freddie, Christ, Alfie, and Leon, then she withdrew her eyes.
The people of Zone Six didn't know what to do in this situation. The Turner family's reputation in Zone Six and Selena's status as a mechanic would make the people of Zone Six protect the Turner family. However, even if they had power and influence, they couldn't openly intervene with the fact that the Turner family and the Soo family had an engagement.
Seeing Selena remain silent, Patrick's face turned cold. Nicholas' expression softened, "Patrick, Mr. Soo can assure you that if Selena marries into the Soo family, no one will dare to harm her. You also know Alfie's character, he will never mistreat Selena." "This engagement is set. Later, | will have Alfie bring the marriage certificate and bride price and personally cto choose a date for the formal engagement banquet for the two!" Patrick was about to refuse, but Nicholas noticed his expression and lowered his voice, "Patrick, | am telling you all this out of respect for my late elder brother. As a younger generation, you must understand that with the marriage certificate as proof, the Turner family must recognize this engagement, whether they want to or not." Patrick's face beceven more grim. Seeing that the people of the Turner family had no reason to refuse Nicholas' domineering words, those families who didn't want Selena to marry into the Anderson family were secretly happy.
Vivian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled coldly, "At that time, the Shaw family will certainly not forget to send Miss Turner and Miss Soo a congratulatory gift!" Constance smiled and pursed her lips, "The marriage of the two major families and Miss Turner's finding a good match is truly worthy of celebration." Those young ladies also clapped their hands enthusiastically, adding fuel to the fire. Selena had a cold face and was about to say that she was already married when a loud burst of laughter cfrom outside the door.
"What are you trying to force the Turner family to recognize? Why don't you tell me?"
