Chapter 173
“You don’t care no matter how ugly she is?”
“| really don’t. A person’s character is far more important than their physical appearance. People nowadays only marry for superficial reasons. That's probably the reason for the rising rate of divorce in our country. Also, beauty is fleeting. Even the most beautiful people age and lose their looks.”
Millie nodded in agreement.
“l agree with you, madam.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man on the end of the line gripped the paper he was holding more tightly.
Bruce clapped his hands. “You're absolutely right. People should stop being shallow.
There’s nothing more attractive than a good heart. | personally know someone who tried to starve his wife to death because he found her unattractive. What a horrible human being.”
His lips curled up in a sly smile. He called Marcus earlier because he wanted something interesting to happen. Millie stopped peeling the orange. The person Bruce was describing seemed familiar to her.
“What a heartless man! Oh, | won’t let my son do something like that. I’ll make sure he'll treat his wife well.” “You're so kind, but will you still accept my sister even if she’s a divorcee?”
“A divorcee?” This time, Latoya hesitated.
However, she did not disappoint Bruce. After thinking for a while, she shrugged.
“That’s fine with me. Your sister seems like a kind person. They probably separated because her ex-husband didn’t know how to take care of her. If she marries my son, 1’ll treat her like she’s my daughter.”
Bruce’s smile grew more wicked. The woman was doing fantastic work for his plan.
“You're right again, madam. That bastard doesn’t care about her at all. If | were my sister, I'd marry your son as soon as possible and becyour daughter-in-law.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe woman laughed at the compliment. “You're quite a sweet talker, aren’t you?
Anyway, | have to go and check if the car has arrived. I'll see you two later.”
Millie, who was about to stuff a piece of orange into her mouth, froze. Now she knew for sure that whenever Bruce mentioned his sister, he was referring to her.
“Millie, think about it carefully. If you marry her son, you'll be her daughter-in-law, and this orchard will be yours.” Bruce raised the phone and looked at it with a triumphant smile on his face.
The call was ended by the other side of the line abruptly, but the phone was ringing moments later.
“Marcus, aren’t you in a meeting? Why are you calling me?” Bruce asked, feigning ignorance.
