Chapter 22 Is She Presentable?
Chapter 22 Is She Presentable?
Inside the Steele Mansion.
After Colbert returned home, he met Belinda.
"How is Eudora?" Belinda immediately asked about Eudora when she saw Colbert.
Belinda cared about Eudora, but she cared more about the child.
Colbert said, coldness coming over his stern face, "I can allow Eudora to give birth to my child. But I must find a suitable woman to marry."
Recently, Colbert had been thinking a lot.
In addition, after frequent contact with Alva, he found she was a good girl, and she was both pretty and smart. Marrying her was the best choice for the Steele family.
"What are you talking about? What do you see in Alva?"
Belinda was very displeased.
"Just because she saved my life, it is reasonable for me to marry her."
He had doubted Alva before and even guessed she had something to do with the car accident.
Later, he asked Corey to investigate what had happened that day again. It turned out it really had nothing to do with Alva.
"I said that whoever is pregnant with your child will marry you. My words don't work on you, do they?"
Belinda really liked Eudora.
"The Steele family is a powerful family, and Eudora is no good. No matter any aspect, she is not worthy of being the future mistress of the Steele family. We deal with wealthy and noble families. Do you think she is presentable?"
That was Colbert, who didn't care about love and only valued interests and how to make the Steele family stronger and more prosperous.
It would only hinder the Steele family if he married Eudora just because she had his child.
Belinda was silenced by Colbert's words.
But she had to admit Alva was the best choice for the sake of the Steele family's future.
"But Eudora is the child's mother. What should we do if words spread out?"
"I will give her a lot of compensation. Don't worry about the child. I will get engaged to Alva as soon as possible and let her show her face less. When Eudora's child is born, I will claim that it's my child with Alva. Then, we'll get married."
Colbert had figured out how to deal with it.
Belinda sighed, remained silent for a long time, and waved her hands. "Forget it. I'm too old to make a choice for you. But make sure Eudora will be well treated. Although she looks average, she is a rare good girl."
Belinda drugged Colbert. The only mistake was Eudora accidentally had sex with Colbert.
Therefore, Belinda wanted Colbert to be responsible for Eudora. But Colbert always had a mind of his own since childhood, and Belinda couldn't persuade him.
Belinda got up and walked to the backyard with a cane to rest.
