Chapter 750

Evadne felt a tightness in her chest, signaling to Jason to walt before questioning closely Arnold, “Is this true? Are you certain?!”

“Mr. Bartley has always been cautious over the years. He wouldn’t spread rumors without solid evidence. That’s why he’s managed to navigate politics so smoothly for so long.”

Arnold’s tone darkened, “So, I believe it’s true. Evadne, Ms. Marilla Abernathy is facing an arranged marriage, isn’t she? To wed without love, will she be content? Can she find happiness?”

Marilla, of course, was far from willing! There must be some deep, dark secret behind it all!

“Grandpa and Mr. Frederic Abernathy disapprove of Jareth, and they despise the entire Fairhaven Group. But Marilla mustn’t marry Alston Bartley either!”

“Evadne, you know Mr. Bartley’s son?”

“Arnold, thanks for the important info. I’ll cook up some pork knuckles for you when I get home, your favorite.”

Jason’s eyes flashed with intensity, “Country Z is a backwater, a melting pot of all sorts. But country M is a

developed nation, a dazzling world. Surely someone couldn’t bear to see Glynnis suffer and b
