    Chapter 53: Nothing But The Betrothal Presents


    The Hunt Family was very noisy at this moment.


    Hearing the news that Mr. Lloyd wasing far away from Jinling to talk about the issue of betrothal


    presents, the entire Hunt Family had explored with excitement, especially the young girls who were all


    busy in dressing up their selves.


    Maggie even spent tens of thousands of dors to get the most famous makeup artist in Z City to


    create a gaudy makeup and look for her, which was indeed so stunning.


    "Mom."


    The whole family of Axel was hurriedlying to meet Old Lady Hunt. Spencer nced at Maggie,


    who was extravagantly dressed up, revealing a sense of contempt and disdain in her eyes.


    On their way, Spencer had already requested her husband and daughters to remain silent about who


    Mr. Lloyd was going to marry. She was looking forward to the final result and was going to surprised


    everyone proudly.


    "Stand aside, it''s the time, Mr. Lloyd should be here soon!" Old Lady Hunt nced at the people and


    said calmly.


    "I didn''t expect it would be the Lloyd family from Jinling. It’s a very powerful family."


    "We should have known it long ago, the family with the surname Lloyd can only the Lloyd family from


    Jinling. The reason why does Mr. Lloyde here must be that he is about to announce who he is


    going to marry."


    "That’s true, but the most ironic thing is that the Lloyd family''s eldest son is called Charles Lloyd, which


    is a star. Katherine''s husband is also called Charlie Lloyd, which is just a piece of rubbish."


    Speaking of this, the crowds burst intoughter.


    Katherine was very calm after hearing their gossiping, but Isabe was furious, ring at those men


    and women.


    At this moment, no one was more excited and arrogant than Maggie.


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    She had the absolute confidence that Mr. Lloyd muste to see her. The thought of marrying into the


    Lloyd family in Jinling soon made her so excited that she was going to out of control.


    "Katherine, there is a huge difference between your husband and mine’s. It’s so hrious. The project


    of Chengyu Group means nothing whenparing with the projects from the Lloyd family in Jinling.


    Their projects are way profitable than yours."


    Being absolutely sure that Mr. Lloyd ising for her, Maggie didn’t want to take care of personal face


    and said ironically.


    Old Lady Hunt frowned, but did not say anything.


    "Are you sure that Mr. Lloyd is about to marry you?"


    "Could it be you?" Maggie disdained.


    Isabe shrugged and said scornfully, "Indeed it''s not me. In that case, I have to congratte you,


    marrying a rich guy and bing a young and rich wife of someone."


    "No need for you to say that."


    Maggie raised her head slightly, like a noble peacock. She was indeed beautiful today, making the


    other girls of the Hunt Family pale inparison.


    "Hey, Maggie."


    "What''s up?"


    Ewan said quietly, "First of all, congrattions, and secondly, don''t forget to help the Hunt Family and


    help me more in the future, and atst, don''t let Katherine have a good time."


    Maggie nced at him, "Well, of course."


    Damn it.


    Ewan was not happy that he was belittled by Maggie, but there was nothing he could do, now he did


    not dare to offend Maggie.


    Five minutester, voices came from outside, "Mr. Lloyd ising, Mr. Lloyd ising."


    All of a sudden, the lobby became quiet.


    Old Lady Hunt got up and stood at the front. Soon, she saw a Handsome man dressed in finery,


    followed by two bodyguards, sailing in.


    "Nice to me you, Old Lady Hunt."


    "Mr. Lloyd, please sit down."


    The girls on site were so shy and nervous. They had only heard of Mr. Lloyd''s name, but never seen


    his real face.


    At this moment, the girls found that he was so Handsome and charming, which was exactly the Prince


    Charming in their dreams.


    Maggie turned red, and she brought a cup of tea to him, "Mr. Lloyd, I am Maggie, please have some


    tea."


    "Thank you. I heard that the girls from the Hunt Family are all beauties, today I see you in person, and


    you really worthy of the reputation."


    "Hahaha you must be joking."


    Maggie could not suppress the excitement and thrill in her heart, and she was worried about


    misbehaving herself, so she hurriedly retreated to stand beside the Old Lady Hunt.


    Among the crowd, Katherine and her sister stood back and did not show off themselves, they never


    bother to look at the hypocrite.


    Old Lady Hunt saw Charles drinking a few of tea, thinking it was the time to bring up the thing, then


    smiled and asked, "Mr. Lloyd’sing to my Hunt family really make my humble home shine. I heard


    that you areing to talk about the betrothal presents, please tell me more about it."


    "It’s simple. I''ve fallen in love with a girl of the Hunt Family and want to marry her. Last time, when


    attending your seventy’s birthday party, I have already give you my betrothal presents, don’t you forget


    it?"


    "Of course, I have not forgotten, may I know who is the girl?"


    Herees the point.


    Maggie lowered her head, being thrilled and shy.


    The other girls had jealousy rising in their hearts, they were indignant but had the self-awareness that


    they were no match for Maggie.


    "Old Lady Hunt, I have an unrequited request."


    "Oh? Please feel free to say it."


    Charles swept around, although he did not find Katherine, but nced at Spencer for a while.


    "What Old Lady Hunt doesn''t know is that Katherine and I are college ssmates. I heard that her


    husband only manages household affairs and is considered a loser. So in order to let Katherine regain


    her happiness, I hope that Old Lady Hunt will agree to Katherine’s divorce."


    "This... "


    Old Lady Hunt looked at Spencer angrily.


    She knew Axel didn''t have the guts to let Charles say this, obviously Spencer had arranged it.


    Katherine''s divorce would bring shame on the Hunt Family, but a marriage with the Lloyd family in


    Jinling would shut those mouths up.


    This was a kind of intimidation.


    If she didn''t say yes, she was afraid it would make Mr. Lloyd unhappy. Old Lady Hunt didn''t dare to take


    the risk.


    "This is a simple thing. Katherine was suffering, and it''s time to find another good husband for her. Mr.


    Lloyd, I promised you on this matter, now you can tell me which girl you are going to marry."


    "Didn''t I just say that."


    Old Lady Hunt froze, "What?"


    Suddenly, her face stiffened.


    Didn’t it mean that she was...


    "Yes, it''s Katherine."


    Charles said firmly.


    It was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky.


    The Hunt family fell into dead silence, everyone looked at Charles incredulously. Maggie was


    "When I was in college I was in love with Katherine, but at that time I had to go abroad to study and


    could only leave in pain. Now that I''m back, I never expect Katherine has already got married."


    "If her husband is a sessful person, I will not bother her. But I find that Katherine actually is married


    with a loser, which I can''t stand."


    Charles got up and said aloud, "So what if she is married, I don''t care, as long as Katherine is divorced,


    I will absolutely take her back to Jinling."


    Hearing his words, the people of the Hunt Family were all dumbfounded.


    Axel and Spencer touched their eyes, feeling so touched.


    Wow.


    The crowd gave a way and Katherine and her sister and husband appeared, but they were --


    "Control it, control it, brother-inw, are you lost your hand? Howe you y so bad with this easy


    character - Huang Shan"


    "Do not panic, My Luna can be online forever."


    "Sister, just drop it, A Liang will teach you how to live."


    The crowd exploded suddenly, in such a important event, how dear the three of them were actually


    ying the game - Arena of Valor.


    Old Lady Hunt''s face sank and she scolded, "Is there still no end to it?"


    "Ah, Grandma."


    The three of them hurriedly got up and walked to the front row.


    Old Lady Hunt''s face was unreadable as she looked at Charles and said, "Mr. Lloyd, do you really


    fancy Katherine?"


    "How can it be false."


    "No, that''s impossible."


    The one who spoke was not Old Lady Hunt, but was Maggie.


    After a few moment, she finally came back to her senses.


    A wave of anger rose to her head, and her whole body was about to explode.


    "Mr. Lloyd, why is her? It can''t be her, Katherine is married! I''m single, I''m prettier than her, I''m the best


    choice for you."


    Maggie looked like crazy, her face was violently twisted, causing the powder to fall down like the snow.


    "Miss Maggie, calm down first."


    "How can I calm down, how do you want me to calm down." Maggie grabbed Charles to her side and


    almost jumped into his hug, shouting, "Mr. Lloyd, take me to Jinling, I will serve you well and be your


    good wife."


    "Shameless! you have disgraced the Hunt Family!"


    Old Lady Hunt''s face was ghastly pale, and her cane pointed at Maggie''s waist. Her parents rushed in


    and pulled Maggie away.


    "Let go of me."


    "It''s me, only I can marry into the rich family."


    "I am the daughter-inw in the Lloyd family, no one can steal it away, let go of me."


    Maggie shouted hysterically, her delicate face turned hideous, and she was quickly drew away from the


    lobby, startling up a round of noisy from the crowd.


    What was the most devastating and humiliating thing to a person?


    Pushing you into a high ce that everyone thought you would seed, but only to find out in the end


    that the person you despises the most was the spotlight.


    Falling from heaven into hell.


    Crushed to pieces.


    The other girls were quite relieved, and Ewan was relieved too, but soon they found a problem -


    If Katherine married into the Lloyd family, would they still have a good day?


    "Mr. Lloyd, sorry to let you see this scene."


    "It’s nothing."


    Old Lady Hunt nodded, swept at Katherine, and said hesitantly, "I don’t expect that the Mr. Lloyd would


    love Katherine with such a deep affection, this is her honor. In that case... "


    "Grandma, I don''t agree."


    What?


    In an instant, everyone''s eyes fell on Katherine.


    "This guy is a y boy and hypocrite, there''s no way I can be with him."


    "Shut up, do you have the right to speak here." Old Lady Hunt scolded her angrily.


    Katherine was not willing to show weakness and shouted back, "Grandma, no matter what you say, I


    won''t back down, this is about my lifelong happiness. I am your granddaughter, not yourmodity, I


    make my own decisions in my life, there is no need for you to worry about it."


    Wow!


    The lobby was buzzing, the crowd was whispering. They had to admire Katherine''s courage to talk to


    Old Lady Hunt like this.


    On the other side, Ewan covered his mouth and almostughed out loud.


    There were still stupid women in the world, who would rather be with a loser than to marry with a rich


    young man. Katherine, it seemed that I had over estimated you.


    "Katherine, what are you talking about!"


    Spencer was shocked and angry, and hurriedly apologized, "Mom, Katherine was so excited that she


    said some nonsense, please do not be angry with her."


    Because of Charles''s presence, Old Lady Hunt held back her anger, but her voice was cold, "Marrying


    into the Lloyd family is a blessing that you''ve cultivated from your eight lifetimes, other girls have


    dreamed of this opportunity, but you are so ungrateful. Why don''t you give me an exnation, why do


    you refuse?"


    "Because the betrothal presents was not offered by this hypocrite."
