Lelia sneered, “A good relationship? Oh, Nola, these are all our own people. Don’t force yourself to pretend. If you
had a good relationship, would you cback empty-handed? Do you think we are all fools? You can tell that
Elvis doesn’t like you! By doing this, what's the difference between being a widow?”
Nola clenched her teacup, maintaining a smile on her face, “I didn’t realize that you care so much about me.”

“Of course! Well, | have to say, this is fate. If you are not destined to becMrs. Grayson, it is useless to force
it. In the end, it is you who suffers. But it doesn’t matter, your father and | will always support you. Mr. Joan likes
you very much. If you can’t stay in the Grayson family and take the initiative to be with Mr. Joan, he shouldn't
mind.”
“I'm afraid you won't wait for that day.”
This was her family, all of them had considered her well, hoping she couldn't stay in the Grayson family, and
even found a backup plan for her. In their hearts, they thought she deserved to be an item in their hands, used
to trade for profit.
If it wasn’t for something about her mother, how could she be humiliated by these people?
At the dinner table, she remained silent, only thinking about finishing the meal quickly, talking to her father, and
leaving this place as soon as possible. She didn’t want to stay a moment longer.
Myles suddenly coughed twice and asked Nola, “You and Elvis have registered your marriage at the City Hall.
Should our elders pick a tto meet and discuss the wedding?”
At this, Nola’s hand paused, and she put down her forks, “There is no wedding.”
“What did you say?” Myles looked at Nola in shock. After all, she married into the Grayson family, and now she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas saying there was no wedding.
Lelia, upon hearing this, was delighted and exclaimed, “Silly Nola, why didn’t you discuss this with us? You are
the daughter of the Grant family, and we are considered a respectable family. You've married into the Grayson
family without a decent wedding. This is worse than an ordinary girl. Do you really agree with this? Is the
Grayson family treating you that badly? Or did you just offer yourself up?”
Lelia’s voice was sharp and piercing, and the words offer yourself up caused snickers from those around them.
Even the nearby servants looked at Nola with ridicule and sarcasm.
“No wedding! | don’t plan on having a wedding. This is good enough as it is. | don’t want those superficial
things,” Nola replied.
“You're just being ridiculous.”
Tanya spoke up, “At first, when | saw Nola cback wearing her old clothes, | thought she was nostalgic and
couldn't bear to part with them. Now | see that it’s not that Nola is nostalgic, but that the Grayson family treats
her like this. Dad, the Grayson family is too much. We can’t let Nola suffer like this. She doesn’t even have a
decent piece of clothing. It's too pitiful.”
Myles sighed, realizing Nola’s situation now. She was enduring such suffering just to escape her marriage with
Joan's family. As a father, he loved his daughter.
“Nola, today Elvis is not here. We are all family, so | won't beat around the bush. Since you are in this situation
now, my suggestion is that you shouldn't suffer anymore. If he doesn’t like you, Mr. Joan still values you. When
you go back today, talk to Mr. Elvis about divorcing, and I'll help you talk to Mr. Joan.”
Nola understood. She had already married someone else, yet her father still insisted on having her marry the son
of the Joan family.
“Dad, I'm curious. What did Mr. Joan give you? What kind of agreement did you reach? And why do you still want
to marry 1/3

“I am your father. Of course, | am thinking about your best interests. Javion, what do you think?”

Javion just smiled and said, “When a girl gets married, she should marry someone who treats her well. Nola, you
and | are not meant to be, but you shouldn't give up on yourself just because | rejected you. Apart from me,
there are still many good men in this world. As for myself, | only have Tanya in my heart.”
Tanya blushed and laughed, nestling against Javion’s arms, provocatively glancing at Nola.
No matter how Tanya looked at it, Nola seemed like the one who had been defeated.
Nola smiled and said, “Does Mr. Lee have too high of self-esteem?”
“Many girls like me, and it’s normal for you to liketoo. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. But, sorry, | already
have Tanya
now.”
Nola almost choked. She had never seen someone as narcissistic as Javion.
Even though Javion was decent-looking, compared to Elvis, Javion was nothing. Her own husband was so
outstanding, she would be foolish to like such a spoiled playboy.
Nola had no appetite for this meal and couldn't eat anymore. She was already disgusted by these people.
Nola wanted to get up, but somehow, Lelia accidentally spilled red wine all over her body. The wine glass
shattered on the ground. Lelia was startled, her face turning gloomy.

“Nola, even if you're angry, we're all having a meal. You can’t vent your anger in front of your father! Besides,
the current situation is your own choice. By smashing the wine glass, you're hitting your father’s face, you
know?”
Lelia said, pretending to be a virtuous wife, and quickly comforted Myles, “Myles, don’t be angry. Nola didn’t
mean it. She's just upset. You shouldn't take it to heart.”
After hearing this, Myles’ anger flared up, and he slammed his hand on the table, causing the forks to fall to the
ground.
“Do you have any manners at all? Do you think that just because you're Mrs. Grayson, you can ignore me? It's
not appropriate to show disrespect to your own father at the dinner table. No one forced you to marry Elvis. |
gave you options, but you're taking your anger out on me. How dare you behave like this?” Myles yelled,
reddening.
Faced with her father’s reprimand, Nola couldn't help but feel amused. Myles prided himself on being smart, but
he couldn't see through the women around him. Was it because Lelia acted so well, or was he unwilling to see
the truth?
Did he really believe such a clumsy performance?
“It was you who kept saying that you wantedto cback for dinner. Do you think | want to cback to
this house? When did you remember that | am your daughter? In your heart, I, Nola, only deserve a wretched
life,” Nola said, looking at her father with pride and stubbornness.
The next moment, she squatted down, picked up the broken glass on the ground, and threw them on the table.
The sharp pieces cut her hands, but she didn’t feel any pain.
“Since Dad doesn’t likeso much, | won't stay here and bother you all.”
