CHAPTER 1157 MARRIAGE PROPOSAL
Chapter 1157 Marriage Proposal
"Mr. Soo is handsome and deeply in love with Miss Turner. They are a perfect match. It seems that it
won't be long before we can attend the wedding of Miss Turner and Mr. Soo," said one woman.
Selena glanced coldly at the two women but didn't say anything.
Patrick looked at Alfie and said coldly, "Selena doesn't like you."
Alfie's smile didn't waver, but his gaze dimmed slightly. He looked at Selena with a gentle tone and
deep meaning, "Not all marriages stem from love. In the future... anything is possible, isn't it?"
Patrick's face darkened. "Although Selena is the daughter of the Turner family, the Turner family didn't
raise her for over a decade before. She has no obligation, and the Turner family has no right to
demand that she fulfill this marriage contract."
Nicholas' face suddenly darkened, and his voice became stern. "Patrick, the sincerity of my Soo family
has already been laid out. The Turner family should not overstep your bounds!"
"The engagement between Selena and Alfie is clearly written in the marriage contract. The Turner
family may have a thousand reasons, but it is not an excuse to break off the engagement!"
Nicholas looked at Patrick with a pained expression, "Alfie is your cousin. If he cannot marry Selena,
he is doomed to a lonely life!"
"From both a moral and logical standpoint, you shouldn't stand in the way of your cousin's marriage!"
Nicholas' sudden outburst scared several young ladies, who turned pale on the spot.
Selena's gaze grew colder.
If it weren't for fear of tarnishing the Turner family's reputation, she would have stepped forward and
taught this shameless old man a lesson!
Patrick's gaze also turned completely cold, "Don't forget, Nicholas, what the Soo family did to the
Turner family in the past."
"The engagement between the Turner family and the Soo family was broken off at that moment!"
Nicholas' expression remained unchanged, and he said forcefully, "Regardless of what happened in the
past, the engagement between Selena and Alfie is still valid."
"Unless my elder brother personally comes to break off the engagement, the engagement between the
Soo family and the Turner family is legitimate."
"Patrick, Selena grew up as an orphan, so she is naturally a bit willful. As a descendant of the Turner
family, how can you join her in such reckless behavior and tarnish the Turner family's reputation?"
"Nicholas is right," Vivian sneered, "Miss Turner may have had a valid excuse for dating other men
before she knew about her engagement, but now that she's fully aware, continuing to be involved with
other men is simply shameless!"
"Miss Shaw is right, Miss Turner. Even though you come from a privileged background, you cannot
openly pursue two men at once."
"You may have been ignorant of your engagement for the past ten years while you were away, and it
may have been forgivable to be involved with other men, but after today, you should know better."
"If Miss Turner knowingly has a fiancé and still insists on being with other men, even going so far as to
persuade her indebted brother to help break the engagement, it makes one question the upbringing of
the Turner family..."
"Miss Turner, you are engaged to another man, please spare Mr. Anderson! He is a distinguished man
and should not have to bear the label of a third party because of you."
"Miss Turner, I heard that you grew up in a wealthy family, and you should know what it means when
two great families unite in marriage. You cannot sacrifice the Turner family for your own love and
disregard the future of Mr. Turner."
Many of the elite daughters of the wealthy families have long been envious and resentful of Selena,
and now they have caught hold of something to accuse her of.
While envy is a factor, the true reason lies with the men.
Although Alfie is outstanding, the strict rules of the Soo family have prevented anyone from coveting
the position of the Soo family's mistress.
But Osvaldo is different.
For over twenty years, he has been revered and countless aristocratic ladies have fallen for him, yet he
has never shown any interest.
Everyone thought he was incapable of emotions and would never fall in love with any woman.
So even though they were not willing to accept it, they had to accept the fact that they couldn't get him.
But with Selena's appearance, that conclusion was shattered.
Osvaldo's extreme indulgence and affection for Selena made a group of young ladies envious.
If Selena marries Alfie, the position of the next mistress of the Anderson family will be vacant, right?
In the cutthroat world of the capital's aristocratic circle, there is no one who is kind-hearted.
As long as Selena is out of the picture, they will have a chance!
Even if the chance is slim.
Whether it was Osvaldo himself or the power and wealth of the Anderson family, they were all worth all
women to pursue relentlessly and take a gamble on. Therefore, for the sake of their own interests, the
people of the major wealthy families were happy to see Selena and Alfie's engagement come to Exclusive content from .
fruition. Even though they envied the bride price offered by the Soo family, their jealousy was mixed up
like a mess in their hearts and minds!
Selena listened to the numerous accusations without changing her expression and held Hattie, who
was about to rush out and confront someone. Hattie angrily said, "Selena, don't listen to their
nonsense. These women are just being mouthy! They need to be taught a lesson!"
Selena patted her hair and said, "It's okay, I don't take it to heart."
She didn't really care about these shouting voices. What she really paid attention to were those who
remained silent. Selena's cold gaze swept over Freddie, Christ, Alfie, and Leon, then she withdrew her
eyes.
The people of Zone Six didn't know what to do in this situation. The Turner family's reputation in Zone
Six and Selena's status as a mechanic would make the people of Zone Six protect the Turner family.
However, even if they had power and influence, they couldn't openly intervene with the fact that the
Turner family and the Soo family had an engagement.
Seeing Selena remain silent, Patrick's face turned cold. Nicholas' expression softened, "Patrick, Mr.
Soo can assure you that if Selena marries into the Soo family, no one will dare to harm her. You also
know Alfie's character, he will never mistreat Selena."
"This engagement is set. Later, I will have Alfie bring the marriage certificate and bride price and
personally come to choose a date for the formal engagement banquet for the two!"
Patrick was about to refuse, but Nicholas noticed his expression and lowered his voice, "Patrick, I am
telling you all this out of respect for my late elder brother. As a younger generation, you must
understand that with the marriage certificate as proof, the Turner family must recognize this
engagement, whether they want to or not."
Patrick's face became even more grim. Seeing that the people of the Turner family had no reason to
refuse Nicholas' domineering words, those families who didn't want Selena to marry into the Anderson
family were secretly happy.
Vivian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled coldly, "At that time, the Shaw family will certainly not forget
to send Miss Turner and Miss Soo a congratulatory gift!"
Constance smiled and pursed her lips, "The marriage of the two major families and Miss Turner's
finding a good match is truly worthy of celebration."
Those young ladies also clapped their hands enthusiastically, adding fuel to the fire. Selena had a cold
face and was about to say that she was already married when a loud burst of laughter came from
outside the door.
"What are you trying to force the Turner family to recognize? Why don't you tell me?"
