Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 392: Smart Kid Aiden

The family of four entered the grand drawing room of the Riverdale Villa, where the other members of the Riverdale family were waiting for them.

Aeldric was sitting in his grand high-backrest chair, wearing a crisp dark brown suit with various gold accessories attached to it. He carried his usual arrogance, as if he were the almighty here.

There was a woman in a simple yet elegant soft-colored dress sitting in the chair next to him—Aeldric’s wife, Marina Riverdale. Unlike Aeldric, she looked gentle and kind, though she carried that aura of authority.

Alexander’s younger sister, Mallory, was there with her husband and two kids, as well as some other Riverdale family members, including Alexander’s uncles and cousins.

They all watched as Alexander, a tall and handsome man in a suit, and his wife Serena, in a simple knee-length soft flower-printed dress, walked towards them. They stood with the two identical kids, wearing white T-shirts with cute cartoon prints and pants, standing between them.

Most of them started to whisper among themselves, some gazes curious while others carried disdain towards Serena and the two kids.

Aeldric’s gaze was simply observing his two grandsons; a delight was clear in his cold gaze.

Alexander stood calm while Serena greeted Alexander’s parents. "Good afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Riverdale."

"Serena? Is it?" Marina said, carrying a light smile on her lips. "Welcome to the Riverdale family."

Serena thanked her, while Mallory spoke to Alex, "You get marriage proposals from so many rich families like us, but you had to choose one poor woman who works as a school teacher?" Her gaze clearly showed hate towards Serena.

"You should consider your own choices in life, rather than mine," Alexander said coldly as he gazed past her husband and settled back on Mallory. "You didn’t make anyone proud either."

Mallory’s husband was a businessman, but his business was running fine due to the grace he received from the Riverdale family. He was dependent on Mallory and her family.

Mallory exclaimed, "How dare you insult my husband?"

"You dare insult my woman," Alexander replied impassively, leaving his sister fuming.

"You...."

"Mallory," Marina interrupted her, "Mind your manners."
