Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

“What era is it now? Everyone already has the freedom to decide their own marriage. How could you set me up without asking for my opinion

Sylvia quickly stood up, furious.

Ethan was speechless. He weakly reached out to pull her arm, but she avoided him.

He withdrew his hand and stroked his beard instead.

“My dear, I’ve already made the reservation. Why don’t you wait until you see Eder himself? He’s really not bad. He’s five years older than you. You know I’m picky about people myself, but I got to like him, so I’m sure you’ll like him too.”

“Five years older is too old! I don’t like it!”

Sylvia wasn’t having it.

She had no intention of ever re–entering a relationship in the meantime, let alone getting engaged and married. She couldn’t even think about it!

“Yes. He’s only twenty–eight years old. Is that really old? Isn’t your ex–husband five years older than you too?”

Sylvia choked, “This is different! This matter is not negotiable. You have to cancel this immediately!”

Ethan’s voice became even more hoarse. “I can’t go back on my words. I already made the appointment yesterday. And Mr. Grant and I agreed to announce your engagement at a banquet in three days.”

Sylvia took a deep breath and controlled her anger.

“I don’t care what kind of banquet you want to hold. You can’t revoke this marriage, can you? Then I’ll do it myself!”

She slammed the door angrily and left.

Ethan looked at her angry back and shook his head helplessly.

She was becoming more and more like her mother who had the same exact temperament. She had to have a man who could tame her!

Sylvia went straight out of the garden.

The bodyguards were waiting at the door so she avoided them for now.

She was really angry and needed a few minutes to cool off. Eventually, she cleared her mind and was reminded that her father was sick and his legs were not good. As his daughter, it was her duty to accompany him since she was now there.

So after a few more minutes of fresh air, she called a few bodyguards to go back to the hotel and pack her luggage. She planned to move to the villa temporarily.

She stood at the door and thought about how to deal with the engagement.

After thinking about it for a long time, she noticed Uncle Lloyd standing beside her.

Sylvia called him over, “Uncle Lloyd, do you know where the Grant family’s house is?”
