NovelEnglishChapter 184 Cynthia's recent actions not only left many people in the social circle puzzled but also inadvertently embarrassed Bernice and Eric.
The idea of a marriage alliance between the Covington and Hurst families had been circulating as early as five years ago.
Last year, when Cynthia returned to the country, members of both families even sat down together for a meal. However, when Barclay suddenly married Moira this year, the talks of an alliance gradually faded away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt03% Yet, last night, when Bernice brought Cynthia to a high-profile event, the implications becclear.
Despite Barclay and Moira having obtained a marriage license, they had not held a wedding, and Bernice had always hinted at Eric's dissatisfaction with Moira as a daughter-in-law.
With all these pieces of information connected, many began to believe that Barclay and Moira would eventually divorce, making Cynthia the ultimate daughter-in-law of the Covington family.
Everything seemed normal until today. Eric had been planning to pressure Barclay into divorcing Moira and engaging with Cynthia.
However, Cynthia seemed to have transformed overnight. Not only did she post a so-called gratitude statement online, elevating Moira's status, but she also had her father call Eric to cancel the marriage alliance between the two families.
When Eric received the call from Victor Hurst, he was initially unaware of what had happened, thinking it was about discussing the engagement.
Unexpectedly, Victor directly stated, "Barclay has someone he likes and has the freedom to marry anyone he wants. As parents, we shouldn't force them. Eric, I think we have to end our two families' marriage alliance!" This left Eric bewildered.
Despite his attempts to persuade, Victor was determined to cancel the marriage alliance, leaving Eric with no choice but to agree.

Bernice cautiously asked, "What happened? What did the Hurst family say?" Eric replied furiously, "What else could they say? Of course, they canceled the alliance!" Bernice was surprised. "What's going on? Is it because of Cynthia?" Looking at Eric's expression, Bernice hesitated for a moment before handing him the phone. "I don't know what's going on with Cynthia. She insisted yesterday that Moira saved her! That would have been fine, but she openly expressed her gratitude today! Now, everyone knows Moira is Cynthia's savior. Cynthia can't ruin her savior's marriage anymore!" Bernice frowned and suddenly thought of something. "Eric, do you think the Hurst family plans this all along?" Eric glanced at Bernice. "If the Hurst family didn't want the alliance, they could have just said so, instead of going through all this trouble!" Bernice was even more confused. "Then why did Cynthia elevate Moira like that?" Eric couldn't comprehend it. Looking at the gratitude statement from Cynthia on his phone, his face darkened. "Moira indeed has sskills! First, she managed to get Barclay to marry her, and now she's managed to persuade Cynthia to support her." With a stern expression, Eric declared, "I'm going to meet Moira!" Moira hadn't expected Eric's secretary to call her.

Their attitude was so arrogant. She didn't even get a chance to speak el before the call was hung up.
Moira felt speechless. Did she have to go just because Eric wanted to see el her? Well, She wasn't going! Of course, she still needed to inform Barclay about this matter.
Moira got up and left the room, heading to the master bedroom!!! where she knocked on the door. The door opened quickly.
As soon as it opened, Moira's gaze fell on Barclay's well-defined eight-pack abs! What a stimulating scene on such a late night!
