Chapter 2197 Vanessa, not quite ready to drop the matter.
“Am I not attractive enough?” Not outstanding enough? In your heart, where do | fall short compared to her?” Vanessa pressed.
“You're pretty and excellent. There's no need for comparisons.” Vanessa was beginning to feel somewhat irritated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Edwin, are you so unwilling to even consider comparing me to her? Can't you even humor me a bit?" Edwin stubbed out his cigarette, offering a faint smile.
“We are business partners, Vanessa,” he reminded her.
“I don't want to mislead your emotions. As for our engagement, you might want to reconsider it,” Edwin replied.
Vanessa bit her lip and climbed into the car.
The vehicle accelerated into the night, skidding slightly as it passed through the gate.
Edwin lingered for a moment before eventually returning to the hall.
Inside, the servants were busy cleaning up the table, while Peter and Lina, already clad in their coats, were ready to leave.
Edwin retrieved his coat and said, “Allow me to give you a ride.” Lina, far from desiring his company, was relieved to be rid of the nuisance. She couldn't let him linger any longer, so she said with a smile, “It’s okay. Peter can drive. And Edwin, I'm not scolding you, but you should be more considerate toward your girlfriend.

Cecilia, unaware of the situation, also joined in with a few words of reproach.
Only Mark observed his son with a profound and thoughtful gaze.
After a brief pause, Mark rose to accompany Peter and his wife outside. He exchanged a few words with them before returning. He then gestured toward Edwin.
“Come with me upstairs.” With his hands in his pockets, Edwin followed his father upstairs.
Witnessing her husband's stern expression, Cecilia couldn't resist remarking, “Don’t be too harsh!” Mark paid no heed to her words. It was unusual for him not to Listen to her.
