The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 15 Marion Might Not Be Willing Yet

Before Marion returned, Richard had instructed the villa’s housekeeper and butler. The staff from the Royce family had arrived, and without Marion’s approval, no one could let them in.

Jameson, who used to come and go freely in the Cartier family, was now stopped at the entrance of the Cartier family villa. The weather was not great that day; it had been overcast since early morning, and now it had started to rain.

Standing at the entrance, Jameson listened to the butler’s words, his expression extremely gloomy. The rain gradually intensified.

After glancing at the villa a few times, Jameson finally returned to his car. His phone had been blowing up; the news of him buying a ring for Sally had caused a stir, and the whole city knew about Marion and Lucas getting their marriage certificate.

Jameson glanced at the dozen or so missed calls, without any intention of answering them for now. He found Marion’s number, but as soon as he dialed, he heard the customer service message: [Sorry, the number you have dialed cannot be reached at the moment.]

It was then that Jameson realized Marion had also blocked his number. He lowered his head, as he looked at his phone. Finally, he got into his car and reluctantly drove away.

At this moment, the atmosphere inside the Royce family was heavy. Janice Royce was huddled on the sofa, playing with her phone. She did not want to go out at all.

As Jameson entered, a teacup landed at his feet. Jameson pursed his lips and looked at Bernadette and Joseph. “Dad, Mom, are you Satisfied now?”

Joseph's face was solemn as he slapped the armrest. The Royce family’s alliance with the Cartier family had been set for a long time. Although the Cartier family had declined in recent years, Marion’s external family had been rising. Moreover, Jameson's elopement had ruined Joseph and Richard's friendship.

The teacup did not hit Jameson, partly thanks to the fact that Joseph has only one son. If there were another son, Jameson would have been kicked out of the Royce family long ago!

Bernadette was heartbroken. She could not hold back her tears as she spoke. “I don’t know what you were thinking! A woman like Sally, from a decent family, who would dare to marry her? But look at what you've done for such a woman, harming Marion like this! Jameson, don’t you have a conscience?

At this moment, Janice sneered. “Men. Don’t they all like to cry and whine? It seems my brother is no exception!”

Janice’s words were a mockery directed at two people. Many years ago, when Joseph had an affair, was not the other woman just like Sally?

Bernadette’s anger flared up. She wiped away her tears and walked over to Janice. “Go to Marion, Chapter 15 Marion Might Not Be Willing Yet 2/02Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

kneel, and apologize to her! The Royce family doesn’t care if she registers with Lucas. As long as she’s willing to divorce, we'll happily host a grand wedding for her!”

Janice, always with a sharp tongue, could not resist adding, “Though we're willing, Marion may not be willing yet!”

“Janice, if you don’t have anything nice to say, better to not speak at all!”

Joseph gave Janice a stern glare. She smirked and left the room.

Jameson endured his mother’s scolding until she had vented her anger. Then he spoke, “I’m willing to apologize to Marion.‘ He looked at Joseph, “Dad, invite Uncle Richard and Marion for a meal. I'll apologize to them on my

knees!”

He would apologize, he knew he was wrong. Yet, beneath Jameson's apology, a growing sense of panic emerged. He did not know if Marion would accept this olive branch, or as Janice said, perhaps Marion did not want his gesture at all. Maybe she simply did not want him anymore. [2
