Chapter 115

“Have a seat, Elias.” Seeing that Elias was still rooted to the ground, Jory cleared his throat and pointed at the sofa opposite him. “Beau said that he has something important to announce today…” Then, he glanced at his watch and asked, “Are we still lacking Matthew and Lucija?” “Lucija has gone abroad.” As soon as the old master finished speaking, Elias calmly opened his mouth. “It’s said that there was an exhibition abroad. She took a private plane last night and left.” A trace of affection flashed across his eyes. “She is as reckless as always.” After he was done talking about Lucija, he seemed to think of something and looked up at Eliza. “Have you met with Lucija?” Eliza nodded, “Yes.” “That girl is a little insensible. If she says something or does something that looks abnormal, don’t take it to heart.” When Elias said these words, he couldn’t hide the love in his voice. Eliza narrowed her eyes slightly. “What are you referring to when you told me not to take it to heart?” “Are you referring to how she emphasized to me that she has a good relationship with my husband, or the time when she cursed me, saying that I’ll be in an accident if I get drunk during my dinner?” Her words caused the temperature in the living room to drop instantly. Gian looked up at Jory. There was a complicated look in both father and son’s eyes. Elias furrowed his brows slightly. After a long while, he smiled and said, “If Lucija has done all of what you said, I apologize to you on her behalf.” “I didn’t educate her well.” Beau lightly held Eliza’s shoulder and said in a cold voice, “Then you’d better educate Lucija in the future.”

“I will.”

Elias also looked at Eliza seriously. “What else have Lucija done to make you feel uncomfortable?” Eliza shook her head.

She and Lucija had seldom met and talked to each other. Although she didn’t like her, but Lucija really didn’t do anything more. “That’s good.” Elias narrowed his eyes. It seemed that she really didn’t remember anything about five years ago. 2 They chatted for a while, and Matthew came back. Obviously, he had not slept all night, and his face was full of haggardness. Gian looked at him with a cold face. “You didn’t come home last night. What happened to you?” “Where did you go?” “I made a decision.” Matthew took a deep breath, stood in front of his family, and said calmly, “I’m going to get married in a few days.”

These words exploded like a bomb in the living room. Everyone looked delighted. Lucy had just came down from upstairs when she heard the news. She rushed over excitedly and hugged Matthew. “My good son, you’ve finally made up your mind. You’re about to get married!” “Which noble family is she from? What does she look like? Is she beautiful?” “Why didn’t you bring her here today?” After that, she even looked at Eliza proudly. “Make sure it’s not a woman from the entertainment circle!” Her words caused Matthew’s expression to change slightly. Matthew pulled Lucy aside and let out a deep breath.

“What I want to say is, I want to marry Roseane.” Lucy’s expression instantly turned terrible! Even if she never paid attention to the entertainment circle, she knew who Roseane was! She liked to be involved in sensationalized news, gossip, and she acted in a lot of exposed scenes! She bit her lips and glared at Matthew, “Are you crazy?” As Matthew’s mother, she had just mocked Eliza for working in the entertainment industry instead taking care of the children at home. In the end, he was going to embarrass his own mother!? “I’m not crazy.”

Matthew looked at Lucy seriously, as well as everyone present. “I’m the one who asked uncle to gather everyone here today.” “I want to tell everyone that I want to marry Roseane.” Matthew stood in front of the crowd with a tall body, and said in a cold and forceful voice, “Roseane was involved in an accident yesterday, and now she is still lying unconscious in the hospital.” “The doctor said that she might wake up today, or she might never wake up for the rest of her life.” “Her accident was caused by me. The man she loves the most, was also me.” “So I want to marry her. No matter if she wakes up or not, I want her to be my wife in this life.” “I don’t agree!” Lucy frowned. “Marrying an actress is one thing, but marrying one who is unconscious?” “Matthew, you’re driving me mad!” Gian was also displeased. “Matthew, even if this girl had an accident because of you, there’s no need for you to marry her, right?” “Mom and dad hope you can get married, but we hope you can find a normal person to get married!” Matthew turned to look at Jory. “What about you, Grandpa?” Jory coughed softly. “I… I don’t agree.” After that, he subconsciously looked in Beau’s direction. “You already knew?” Beau nodded. “I support him.” “Of course you support him!” Lucy was instantly furious. “Your brother has been unwilling to inherit the family property ever since he returned from being a soldier.” “Except for us, you’re the only one who can inherit the entire Valentine family’s property!” “Of course you want Matthew to marry such a woman. It’s best if she doesn’t wake up for the rest of her life!” “At that time, no one will have a dispute with you and your sons over the property, and then the whole Valentine family will be yours!” Lucy became angrier. “I knew it! You did it on purpose!” “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning!” Lucy’s words were unpleasant.

Eliza bit her lips tightly and turned around to look at her. Demarion and Braint sat in the corner and played chess, as if they had not heard the conversation. Beau, on the other hand, was leisurely drinking his tea. It was as if the person Lucy had used harsh words to attack wasn’t him. After a long while, when Lucy finally became silent, Beau put down the teacup. “Sister-in-law, are you done talking?” Lucy rolled her eyes at him and fell silent. Beau looked at Lucy with a faint smile. “So what you’re saying just now is that you’re worried that I’ll be the one to take over the family property in the future, and Matthew will be suppressed by my two sons and I, right?” Lucy rolled her eyes at him but remained silent. “Matthew is my nephew.” Beau raised his hand and poured himself a cup of tea. “I don’t have anything to give him when he gets married. How about I give him ten percent of my shares in Valentine’s Group?” His words made everyone in the living room silent again. Elias also smiled faintly. “Beau, ten percent of the shares.

Isn’t it too much?” The Valentine’s Group was a big group with hundreds of billions of dollars. Ten percent of the shares was equivalent to giving Matthew tens of billions of dollars. And holding shares was not just about money. By giving up so many shares, it meant that Beau was giving Matthew a lot of his rights.

Although Elias had never done business, he still understood these principles. Beau smiled and said, “Matthew’s decision has shown me his responsibility as a man. I think it’s worth it.” “That’s right.” Elias shrugged his shoulders. “You’ve always had a good relationship with Matthew. It’s normal for you to willingly give so much.” As he spoke, he shot a glance at Lucy, who was completely dumbfounded.

“However, sister-in-law probably doesn’t want it.” “It’s just ten percent shares. How can my sister-in-law accept an unconscious daughter-in-law because of it?”
