Sweet Revenge Chapter 133
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Three"You must know why I've called you here, so have some tea." Mr. Reed said.Harvey knew it was about his marriage to Quinn, as they had previously held an engagement ceremony. Due to internal family issues within the Susan lineage, and a decision to sever ties with Harvey's family, the wedding had been postponed."Have you not understood my intentions? Allow me to be direct then – I do not wish to marry your daughter. She is wonderful, but I do not love her. If you truly seek a union between our families, you can choose someone else from the Susan lineage. It doesn't have to be me." Harvey said nonchalantly.Harvey's demeanor and attitude aligned with Quinn's prior description – cold, indifferent, and dismissive. Arranged marriages were often devoid of love, a fact understood by many, yet Harvey chose to use this obvious reason to reject the proposed union.Mr. Reed, of course, had the option to select someone else from the list of heirs within the
Sweet Revenge Chapter 134
Chapter One Hundred Thirty-FourQuinn's mind wandered, and she sat down on the bed with a sad and melancholic expression. Mr. Reed noticed her demeanor and asked, "What's wrong? Why do you suddenly look so sad?""I know who Jethro Thompson is and I also know who his wife is. Gemma is truly stunning... she is regarded as a goddess in the eyes of many men. Compared to Gemma, I can't possibly measure up to her..." Quinn said, her last sentence whispered quietly to hide her embarrassment.It's not Harvey's fault for falling in love with Gemma; it's Gemma's fault for being so beautiful, a beauty worshipped like a goddess. Quinn had heard that Harvey and Gemma had a close relationship."If you like Harvey that much, then have the confidence to pursue him. Forget about the arranged marriage and the cooperation between the two families. You just need to be a normal girl and pursue the love you want," her father advised.Upon hearing this, Quinn looked up at her father, the man who was usually
Sweet Revenge Chapter 135
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Five Quinn tried to conceal her embarrassment, returning with an air of arrogance and confidence as if she had just arrived. "I will become your wife, so from today onwards, I will live here. After all, we are husband and wife, so you have no right to stop me," Quinn said confidently. Even if Harvey were to refuse a thousand times, he couldn't refuse forever. If this were a game, then in this game, whoever persevered would be the winner. Facing Harvey, Quinn maintained a confident smile, although, in Harvey's heart, there was only one woman, Gemma, but didn't mind her current belonging to someone else; she couldn't be considered a rival. "Why are you so silent?" Quinn furrowed her brow slightly. Normally, when she spoke these things, Harvey would strongly oppose and sometimes even kick her out. Harvey coldly looked at the woman in front of him, with the image of 'Emma' appearing in his mind. For Harvey, the woman he loved was Gemma Robert, and that
Sweet Revenge Chapter 136
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Six Harvey had nothing more to say, but he would make Quinn give up quickly, and if possible, he would make her take the initiative to end the relationship with him and cancel this engagement. Harvey called the butler to arrange a bedroom for her, but Quinn didn't want a separate room. "Why should we sleep in separate rooms? Is there a problem with you sleeping with me?" Quinn asked nonchalantly. Harvey sighed and explained, "We're only engaged, not truly married yet, so let's sleep separately until then. I also wouldn't want to share a room with you if I could help it." He didn't hesitate to speak harshly and didn't care whether the other person felt hurt or not. But Harvey was wrong in thinking he could hurt Quinn like that. She looked at him innocently, not understanding what Harvey was saying. "Well then, it's boring. Let's share a room. That way, we can consider it as nurturing our relationship. You're not someone from the feudal era with such
Sweet Revenge Chapter 137
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Seven After that not-so-pleasant conversation, Quinn felt uneasy and wanted to share all of this with her mother so she could help resolve it. However, she shook her head suddenly, realizing that leaving home was her decision, coming here and suggesting to live with Harvey was also her decision. All of these were impulsive decisions made without much thoughtful consideration. But Quinn didn't feel regret for these rash decisions because she knew she could change this man. The woman Harvey want was Jethro's wife, even though Harvey might have ten lives, he wouldn't dare to steal Jethro's wife. Quinn was also confident that Harvey wasn't that kind of terrible person. Ignoring Harvey's discomfort when she touched things related to that woman, Quinn paced around the room and examined more closely. The sound of a car in the courtyard caught her attention. Quinn stood by the window and looked out. Due to the position of the room, it wasn't easy to see, so

Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Eight After that evening's dinner, Quinn deliberately tried many different dishes, determined never to cook the peppercorn fish dish again. It was delicious, but she hated it, really despised it. "If you tear up that recipe, you won't be able to recreate that flavor," the old steward reminded, knowing that Harvey's actions were disrespectful to Quinn, but the flavor could only be produced from the recipe Gemma had left behind. "It's true, that flavor cannot be replicated. It's akin to the fact that Gemma would never be allowed in here without my permission. V, don't forget my status," Quinn said coldly to the old steward. Her temperament could be somewhat arrogant at times, but she never allowed them to forget her noble status. "I sincerely apologize," V said respectfully. However, Harvey hadn't touched any of the dishes Quinn had prepared since that evening. Quinn was so angry she could grind her teeth, looking at a table full of food in front of he

Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Nine At the banquet, Quinn entered with Harvey, exuding an air of arrogance and grandeur. She deliberately leaned against him to let everyone know that their relationship was sweet and intimate. Harvey understood Quinn's intention in doing so, and he played along with her whims. Not because he had changed his thoughts, but because there were many representatives from other clans present, and image and honor were of utmost importance. The clans gathered here were either wealthy or had noble traditions passed down through generations, often rooted in successful business endeavors. "There are many people here. Hold my hand tightly," Quinn gently said, her tone rarely soft with anyone. Harvey glanced at her and nodded slightly, but didn't say anything more, his face appearing pale as if lacking sleep. The party itself was unremarkable, simply a gathering of the affluent seeking cooperation to create value and benefit for each other. It was also an opport

Chapter One Hundred and FortyGemma turned and walked away with Jethro, ignoring Harvey's pained expression as he called out to her. A few new guests noticed them, but no one dared to interject, only stealing glances.Gemma felt she couldn't stay here any longer. If Harvey continued like this, they would become the laughingstock of the entire party. She stepped out into the backyard behind Susan's main house to take a breath of fresh air. Inside had felt stifling, not due to the crowd, but because she didn't know how to face Harvey anymore.The scene tonight was beautiful, with the night sky adorned by stars and a romantic moonlight. The rustling of the trees added a soothing ambiance whenever the breeze swept through."Tonight, the sky is truly beautiful," Gemma unconsciously voiced her thoughts. Jethro, standing by her side, agreed, "Indeed."However, Gemma didn't fully register Jethro's presence until he spoke. She had assumed he was engaged in conversations with other guests, whic
