The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Donald glanced at Jaud. “What’s on your mind?”

Jaud smiled. “Your daughter’s now twenty–six, and it’s time for her to marry. If we can

arrange a strategic marriage with one of Riverton’s top families, drawing upon their influence, it’d be far easier to establish ourselves there.”

Donald thought it made perfect sense, but he tended to spoil his daughter.

Even if he wanted a strategic marriage with one of Riverton’s top families, he would still like her partner to be someone she liked.

“Call Viola. I’ll talk to her about it,” he said.

Soon, a charming lady dressed in a gown arrived at Donald’s study–she was none other than Viola, his eldest daughter.

“It’s quite late, Dad. Why did you ask for me?” she asked.

Donald was forthright about the plans for the strategic marriage, and Viola soon leapt to her feet.

Instead of getting into an outburst, she tugged at his sleeve and pouted. “I don’t want that, Dad… I don’t even know anyone from Riverton, and they’d never deserve me.”

“You’re not that young, Viola,” Donald reasoned earnestly. “You can’t stay single forever, right? Also, I might call it a strategic marriage, but I’ve thought about it–we can invite the children of everyone rich and important in Riverton to your birthday this weekend. You can pick from among them yourself, okay?”

Viola thought about it and nodded.

Being an heiress, she knew full well that she could not stay single forever–when it was time to compromise, it was time.

Seeing that Viola was agreeing to it, Donald smiled happily. “I know you’re the best. Don’t worry–once I establish myself in Riverton, you’ll be the top heiress in Riverton…”

Early next morning, Frank was jogging around Skywater Bay, running at breakneck speed although he was just training.

He suddenly stopped in front of a mansion as he spotted Chris Steiner going inside with a

woman.

Frank’s eyes were sharp, and he was dead sure the woman was not Helen.

Though he was surprised Chris had another woman, he simply shook his head, having no intention to pry.

In the mansion, Chris had his arm around the woman’s slender waist while sighing wistfully. Oh, I’ve missed you so much, Viola.”

Viola shoved him. “Give up already. My dad’s intending to marry me off.” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Chris was actually shocked. “Marry you off? To whom?”

“I haven’t decided yet, but my father is inviting the sons of every Riverton bigwig to my birthday party this weekend. He told me to choose from them.”

Chris scowled right then.

After all, Viola was his sugar mommy-she was the one who invested in his company as well.

He tried to ask for her hand in marriage years ago, but he had nothing to his name.

Donald himself only felt contempt for him and had him thrown out of Salazar House while declaring that his daughter would never marry him.

However, Chris never gave up with his good looks and sweet words, he managed to coax Viola into bed.

Even so, their relationship remained hidden and must never see the light of day. And now that Viola was going to marry, it could well mean the end of his spendthrift days…

“I knew I never deserved you.” Chris sighed with a mournful look. “You don’t have to come looking for me ever again–I’ll stay away.”
