After Her Engagement Annulled, the Weak Rich Daughter Becomes a Big Shot!

83 The Family’s Arrangement

“This isn’t.” The education Fiona had received since she was young told her that this was not right.

Old Madam Potter’s face sank, and her tone was cold. “Do you still remember what I told you?”

Fiona pursed her lips. “The future of the Potter family lies in my hands.”

“It’s good that you still remember.” Old Madam Potter’s tone immediately softened. “Your two elder brothers have mediocre talent. There’s no hope of relying on them to revitalize the Potter family.”

To say that they were mediocre was already a decent way of saying it. Her two brothers could be said to have fully displayed their dandy nature. Not only were they ignorant and incompetent, but they also caused a lot of disgraceful things every day and let their family clean up their mess.

Therefore, rather than relying on them to revitalize the family, it was better to pray that the Potter family would not be handed over to them so that they could hold on for a few more years without going bankrupt.

“Therefore, the hope of reviving the Potter family can only fall on you.” Old Madam Potter held Fiona’s hand and looked at her expectantly.

However, Fiona shuddered. Her eyes were like a scale, weighing her and then thinking about the price of each piece of meat and who to sell it to.

That was right, the method that Old Madam Potter had thought of for her to revitalize the Potter family wasn’t for her to work hard and take over the company’s operations as soon as possible. Instead, it was for her to marry into the Anderson family so that their family could obtain the protection of the Anderson family, and thus, allow her two brothers to obtain a long-term guarantee.

Everyone had said that she was the favored daughter of the Potter family. From the moment she was born, she had been the pearl in the palm of the Potter family’s hand. However, Fiona was the only one who knew that this love had already been marked with a price.

However, Fiona was unwilling to accept such an arrangement. She wanted to live an upright life and rely on her own abilities to support the Potter family.

After learning of Old Madam Potter’s attitude, she turned around and left the room, then dialed Old Madam Anderson’s phone.

“Madam, although I’m being presumptuous, can you please tell Mr. Edwin that I have an important matter to discuss with him? It’s about Caroline’s performance competition. I hope he can spare ten minutes to meet me.”

After listening to Joline’s message, Edwin thought for a few seconds and agreed. “Sure.”

He had already heard about what happened to Caroline at the horse track today. Whether it was the drugging of White Snow or the scaring of Caroline’s horse, he had already investigated it and knew that the Potter family was behind it.

Considering that he still had many collaborations with the Potter family, even if Edwin knew of Old Madam Potter’s plans, he would temporarily hold back.

So, let him listen to her explanation. If the result was not satisfactory, he did not mind putting righteousness before family and directly tearing up the cooperation agreement between the two families.

Caroline was still unaware of what had happened. After winning the horse riding exhibition, she participated in two more competitions and won both. In addition, she got an A+ in the mini-exam, which washed away her reputation of being ‘ignorant and incompetent’. Many people changed their opinions of her.

After waiting for a long time, Edwin still didn’t bring Caroline to her. Joline couldn’t wait any longer. She led the design team and rushed to Caroline’s new home.

“May I ask who you are?” Caroline opened the door and was stunned when she saw the group of people outside.

Joline, who was standing at the front, sized her up from head to toe, and her eyes brightened. She was even more beautiful in real life than in the photos and videos. No wonder that kid, Edwin, was in such a hurry to marry her.

“I told you,” she turned around and shouted at Harriman, “that style just now suits her very well.”

Caroline could vaguely see a certain person’s shadow from the other party’s facial features. She guessed the identity of this distinguished guest and felt a little helpless. She had just persuaded the young one to leave, and now an old one appeared. She hoped that she was not here to stand up for George.

As expected, she heard the woman introduce, “I’m Edwin’s grandmother. You can call me Joline.” She peeked inside and said, “I’m sorry for the sudden visit, but I’m in a hurry, so I’m sorry for being impolite.”

Caroline naturally wouldn’t say anything that she didn’t welcome them. She invited them into the house.

Joline walked around the villa and asked curiously, “Can I ask you a question? Why did you take a fancy to that boring kid, Edwin?”
