A Replacement Bride

Chapter 298

"So many years had passed, so why wouldn't I dare to bring it up? Moreover, it isn't anything scandalous. It's just that you're unaware of the inside story."

"I'm unaware of the inside story?" Eddie repeated disdainfully. "Do you think of me as a fool? The entire Scott-Tutton Family knows about your shameful past!"

"Shameful?" Jennifer suddenly raised her gaze and laughed as if she had heard the biggest joke. At the same time, she sounded annoyed. "Who exactly is shameful to the family?" Back then, what had the Scott-Tutton Family done to prevent me from being with Darren? Will you only believe me if I reveal the actual events that happened?"

He furrowed his brows when he noticed her expression as he had a bad feeling about it. "What are you trying to say? Weren't you adamant about cutting ties with the Scott-Tutton Family back then? You knew that—"

"Yes! I wanted to cut ties with the Scott-Tutton Family, but do you think it was only because I was insistent on being with Darren?"

"What other reason could there be? Didn't you abandon the Scott-Tutton Family because they disagreed?" Eddie's frown deepened.

Then, he had a look of disdain as he said, "You knew that the Scott-Tutton Family and the Olsen Family aren't on good terms, but you insisted on being with Darren. When the Scott-Tutton Family opposed your decision, you cut off ties with the family without hesitation and even changed your last name. How dare you speak of the house rules, given what you had done in the past? I think you aren't sure of which family you belonged to."

Hearing that, Jennifer merely kept quiet, making Eddie think that what he said was spot on and caused him to speak more boldly. "So what if you stayed with our uncle and got married using the last name 'Moran'? Ultimately, you had to live under the radar, change your last name to 'Wood', and even cut ties with the Moran Family. You thought that they were being sincere, but in fact, they were after the secretary who used to work for Mom. This is your karma!"
