Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Before anyone could react, Elsie was the first to blurt out, "Why?"

Was Clayton so eager to announce the existence of Valeria to the public? If so, wouldn't Elsie have even less status in the future?

Elsie could clearly feel that her parents were caring about her less and less. They did not even care that she wanted to marry a poor man like Kaden. They were all focused on Valeria.

Was it because Valeria married Hackett from the first prestigious family? And she even gave birth to a child of the James family.

So, her parents really didn't care about her anymore.

Elsie was extremely disappointed. How could they do that? As long as Valeria appeared, they would have completely forgotten about Elsie.

Were they going to take back all the love Elsie had received all these years?

Elsie frowned. "What do you mean why? Your sister is already back. Of course, we have to give her the status of a member of the Maddox family. She's a daughter of the Maddox family to begin with." "But... the public doesn't know about my sister's existence. Don't you think it's weird to announce it all of a sudden?" Elsie didn't want her father to announce the existence of Valeria.

Kaden's expression turned serious as well.

In the past, Kaden had come for Elsie's status as the only daughter of a wealthy family. Now, Elsie had an older sister.

Didn't that mean that the assets Kaden would inherit in the future would be halved?

Loretta finally spoke and said calmly, "There's nothing weird about it. We will just announce it truthfully. We didn't take good care of your sister back then and lost her. We should acknowledge her existence now." Hearing even her mother say so, Elsie felt that she had been completely disregarded. Her life would only get worse from

now on.

Meanwhile, Valeria who was sitting there remained silent.

Hackett looked at Valeria. "Valeria, what do you think?"

Hearing it, the couple looked at Valeria nervously, afraid that she would disagree. After all, Valeria had never taken the initiative to call them Dad and Mom.

Valeria just watched Alex eat in silence, not saying a word.

In fact, Valeria did not really need the title as the eldest daughter of the Maddox family. However, it seemed that wanted her to return to the Maddox family, other than Elsie. Valeria could tell that Elsie did not welcome her. everyone

After some time, Elsie thought that Valeria would not be willing to do so. Just as Elsie was secretly rejoicing, Valeria spoke.

"I agree."

The couple suddenly heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that, and the weight on their chests was lifted.

Loretta couldn't help but say, "That's great. Then let's set the time at the end of this month."

"I have no objections." Valeria picked up a tissue and wiped the grease from the corner of Alex's mouth.

Hackett frowned slightly as he stared at Valeria's side profile. His gaze was ambiguous as if he could not guess what Valeria was thinking.

The joy in Elsie's heart was gone completely. Valeria actually agreed to it.

From now on, Elsie's status in the Maddox family would probably be lost. She would no longer be the pampered eldest daughter of the Maddox family.

"I need to go to the bathroom." Elsie found an excuse to leave.

Kaden quickly got up and chased after Elsie.

Looking at the couple walking out, Valeria slowly said, "Elsie doesn't seem to want me to go back."

"How could that be? She just needs some time to adjust. Don't worry about her. Let's eat," Clayton said dismissively and started using his fork, trying to cover up the awkwardness of Elsie suddenly leaving the table. In the bathroom, Elsie stood in front of the sink and looked at herself in the mirror. She was shaking with anger.

Elsie knew that she had no right to stop her sister from coming back, but why did her parents no longer care about her feelings after her sister appeared? In the past, they would listen to her in every matter.

In the next second, tears streamed down Elsie's face. She was filled with grievances and had nowhere to complain.

Suddenly, Kaden pushed open the door and walked in.

"Who allowed you to come in? Get out!" Elsie wiped away her tears. This was the first time she had ever lost her temper at Kaden.

Kaden was a bit confused but upon reflection, he thought that Elsie might be acting this way because she had been a pampered young lady for a long time. He decided to endure it for the sake of a bright future ahead.

"Elsie, don't be sad. I know what you're thinking. Mr. Maddox and Mrs. Maddox might have neglected your existence for the time being. When everything returns to normal, they'll still dote on you." Kaden reached out to wipe Elsie's tears. Elsie wanted to dodge, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

Why did Valeria get to marry a handsome and wealthy man like Hackett, while Elsie had to be with a poor guy?

Comparisons were infuriating.

Without the perfect contrast of Valeria's life and without Hackett entering her world, Elsie might have found Kaden quite appealing and might even have considered marrying him and starting a family, or even eloping with him. However, Elsie did not want to be with Kaden anymore.

They were both daughters of the Maddox family. Why was it that Valeria's husband was so outstanding and unique? Now, as Elsie reflected, Kaden in front of her seemed rather ordinary, with nothing particularly exceptional about him. "Kaden, I think Dad and Mom are punishing me. I don't want to think about marriage for the time being. I don't even have the mood to talk about feelings now..."

Elsie almost said she wanted to break up, but she still couldn't bring herself to say it.

Kaden immediately perked up. Even a fool could understand what Elsie meant. Elsie wanted to break up.

It was impossible. It was not easy for Kaden to get to this point. How could he give up so easily?

"Elsie, I don't mean to force you. If you don't want to consider it for the time being, we won't consider it. I can wait for you. I can wait for you all the time. Please don't say such things. I'm very sad." Kaden acted like he was heartbroken. Elsie felt even more guilty She had let this man down.

However, Elsie did not like Kaden anymore.

Suddenly, Kaden said, "Elsie, you don't want your sister to return to the Maddox family, right? Perhaps I can help you."

"You can help me?" Elsie was really curious as to how Kaden could help her.

Kaden said, "Yes. I'll help you. I can do anything for you, as long as you don't mention breaking up with me, okay? Please, Elsie, I can't leave you."

Elsie felt even more guilty. How could she hurt such a good man?

Actually, if Kaden had found an ordinary girl to date, he could have lived happily for the rest of his life. His mistake was knowing Elsie.

"Kaden, you don't have to do this for me. This is our family's business. You don't have to get involved. My father doesn't like you to begin with. If he finds out what you're doing, he'll definitely kill you." "I'm not afraid. I'm willing to do anything for you, Elsie."

Elsie was touched, but she still did not want to marry Kaden.
