Chapter 470: Chapter 470: Ugly in Appearance, Beautiful in Mind
Rose said that after Moore regretted the marriage, Xaviera just randomly found someone to marry. She heard that the man had no house or car and was so poor that he only worked as an ordinary laborer.
Mag had a smug expression on her face. If Xaviera didnât marry Edwin, she would only be a workerâs wife, with no power or influence. In contrast, she would be Mrs. Mamet, the lady of the Mamet family, and Xaviera would never match up to her.
Although Moore was just a member of one of the Mamet offshoots, he was still part of Libananâs upper class. Xaviera couldnât compare to her. The clothes Mag casually bought were worth more than her poor husbandâs annual salary.
Thinking about this, Magâs smile became even smugger, though she wiped her tears and pretended to be sad, âSister, I just donât want you to suffer. If you marry Mr. Edwin Sutton, you wonât have any worries for the rest of your life. You wonât have to suffer with that man!â
Everyoneâs expressions softened, and they nodded in agreement.
âMag is kind-hearted, sheâs just thinking about finding a good match for her sister.â
âMr. Mamet was originally Xavieraâs fiancĂ©, but now Mag is going to marry him soon. Mag must feel guilty, so she wants to help Xaviera find a good marriage too.â
âWe misunderstood Mag.â
Mag spoke gently, âSister, if you donât want to, then forget it. I wonât force you. But now that the Sutton Family has sent betrothal gifts, what should we do?â
âNo! She must marry!â Madame Evans roared, âXaviera, we are all your family. How could we harm you? Whatâs so good about marrying a poor man? Itâs your luck that Mr. Edwin Sutton likes you!â
Mag also chimed in, âSister, Moore and I are getting married soon. I canât bear to see you marry an ordinary worker. Donât you love money the most? Edwinâs family is extremely wealthy. If you marry him, you will enjoy a luxurious life.â
Hearing everyoneâs persuasion, Xaviera still looked disdainful, which enraged the Suttons.
âXaviera! Donât take our kindness for granted! Itâs an honor for my son to marry you. If you dare to back out and break my sonâs heart, I will never let you go!â
Mrs. Sutton threatened Xaviera while Madame Evans was so anxious, she started stomping her feet. âXaviera! Get a divorce at once, marry Edwin next month, and stop sneaking around. You got married without telling your family. You scoundrel!â
Xaviera raised her eyebrows, âDo I like money?â
Everyone was taken aback when they heard her indifferent statement, âYes, I do like money.â
The Suttons thought she was ready to compromise and showed smug smiles on their faces.
Edwin looked at her lecherously, âMy dear Xaviera, as long as you serve me wholeheartedly, I will not treat you badly. Donât you just like money? Iâll give you as much as you want!â
Mrs. Sutton nodded, âAs long as you marry my son, I will make sure you are well taken care of and can spend as much money as you want.â
Edwinâs eyes glistened, âDarling Xaviera, listen to me. Hurry up and divorce that poor man, cut ties with your Albert, and I will cherish you forever.â
âAfter youâre married, youâre not allowed to wear short skirts or show your shoulders and neck when you go out. You canât meet any other men. In short, youâre not allowed to go out unless my son is with you. Your only task is to make my son happy. Nothing else matters.â
Mrs. Sutton said sternly, word by word, as Xavieraâs eyes grew darker and darker.
Edwin leaned in closer, his disgusting lips forming words, âAs long as you serve me well, Iâll be happy, and any request you have will be granted.â
âMr. Edwin Sutton is as ugly as he is delusional!â
Just then, a cold voice came from outside the door, creeping into everyoneâs hearts like an icy chill.

The manâs voice was cold, âMamet has always been proud, but he never dared to make such demands of Mrs. Mamet. Mr. Edwin Sutton, do you think youâre qualified to make so many demands on Mrs. Mamet?â
Everyone looked at the source of the voice, only to see a tall man exuding an oppressive aura slowly walking in. His heavy steps weighed everyoneâs hearts down.
What did this man just say? Was he⊠Xavieraâs husband? Daring to mock Mr. Edwin Sutton in public?
Mrs. Sutton was about to curse at him when she saw her husband and Madame Evans turn pale and tremble slightly.
The man in front of them appeared like a god descending from the heavens, his icy gaze scanning the crowd, making everyone hold their breath.
