Chapter 160 A Lesson Learned

Carter gazed at me with such tenderness, as if his eyes carried an infinite depth of affection.

"You'll find out in time," he said softly, leaving the question unanswered and my heart feeling hollow.

After a day of negotiations, the families finally came to an agreement.

Anna and Ashley's engagement was settled, but the Hudsons had their reservations.

They agreed to cover the betrothal gift and the wedding expenses, but they refused to register the marriage. It was a clear sign that this arrangement was only for show.

Once Anna lost her value, they could discard her without hesitation.

"What is the meaning of marrying without registration? Are you treating my daughter like some disposable object?" Kate snapped.

Fiona Hudson, impeccably dressed and perfectly poised, sat across from her. Compared to Kate, who had aged significantly after her recent loss, Fiona looked at least a decade younger despite being around the same age.

Her high-end tailored dress, diamond bracelet, and flawless complexion all exuded an air of superiority.

She stirred her coffee leisurely with a hint of disdain flashing across her delicate features.

"Do I really need to spell out what your daughter is worth? I assumed we all understood," she sounded like an evil mother-in-law,

Registering the marriage would tie our families" interests together. If they genuinely loved each other, we wouldn't object.

At the mention of children, the Sanders family visibly tensed.
