Chapter 850 - 850: Aurelia Shaw as Bridesmaid?
A luxury car was parked in front of the yard; Aurelia recognized that it wasn't the Shaw Family's car.Her dad only drove business cars, Clara Philips didn't have such good taste; she would only drive those flashy and expensive ladies' cars. As for Jovana Shaw, she wasn't old enough to get a driver's license yet.
As she stepped into the house, the butler seemed taken aback upon seeing her, "Miss, why have you suddenly returned?"
Aurelia frowned a bit. Why did Uncle Liu react this way upon seeing her? Previously, Uncle Liu liked her to come home and often encouraged her to visit more often and check on her father. This time was...
Intuition told her something was amiss.
She walked into the living room.
Clara Philips and several others were sitting on the sofa.
The atmosphere instantly quieted upon her entry.
Clara Philips was surprised Aurelia had returned.
Briefly surprised, she quickly regained her composure and donned a motherly smile, walking over, "Aurelia, why didn't you let your father and me know before coming back?"
Aurelia glanced at the people in the living room, her gaze indifferent.
Leo Campbell stiffened slightly when her gaze swept over him, his eyes bright, staring intently at the girl's stunning face, his heart pounding wildly.
Jovana Shaw noticed Leo Campbell's reaction and jealously clenched her fingers.
At this moment, Balthazar Shaw stood up, "Aurelia, go to your room for a while. I need to discuss something with your Aunt Campbell and others."
"Old Balthazar, there's no need to hide it. Are you planning to keep your daughter in the dark about Jovana marrying Leo?" Mrs. Campbell remarked sarcastically.
Ever since hearing Clara Philips' words, she had various reasons to dislike Aurelia.
"Engagement?" Aurelia's eyes swept over Jovana Shaw and Leo Campbell, thinking: What's up with this Mrs. Campbell? Didn't she hear Jovana's identity clearly at the boat party? Also, these past few days, she thought Clara Philips and her daughter had been kicked out. Why is Balthazar leaving them in the house, even helping Jovana get engaged?
Is her dad too foolish, or after all these years, has he really developed feelings with them?
Leo Campbell suddenly stood up, excitedly shaking his hands, "No, it's not like you think. This was arranged by my mom; I didn't agree."
Jovana Shaw's eyes were bloodshot with jealousy.
This seductress Aurelia, she always attracts men no matter where she goes!
Will she be satisfied only after seducing every man in the World? She's as provocative as her mother.
Clara Philips laughed lightly and stood out, "Jovana isn't of age yet; it's a bit early for marriage, but I've already settled things with Mrs. Campbell. When Jovana comes of age, we'll hold the coming-of-age ceremony and engagement banquet together. Why don't you be her bridesmaid then?"
An engagement needs a bridesmaid?
Should they also arrange a best man?
"Then let's reluctantly settle it for now. As Jovana's sister, being her bridesmaid is only right," Mrs. Campbell said.
Aurelia watched as the two of them made the decision for her to be bridesmaid without her consent, and laughed coldly, "Be a bridesmaid? She doesn't have that qualification."
"As the Campbell Family's daughter-in-law, how could she not be qualified?" Mrs. Campbell shrieked.
No wonder Clara Philips said Aurelia often bullied Jovana at home. Judging by this demeanor, she must have often bullied her.
Mrs. Campbell already considered Jovana Shaw as her daughter-in-law. Bullying Jovana means disrespecting the Campbell Family. Years of showing off under the Campbell Family's influence have long made them forget they are just a branch of the Campbell Family.
