NovelEnglishThe Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 483: Anger And DissatisfactionLila was feeling a bit disappointed. Johanna didn’t even bother saying anything nice to comfort her. Feeling frustrated, Lila sat on
the edge of the bed, fiddling with the helm of her lace dress.
Johanna went over and sat next to Lila. She said in a friendly tone, “I think that even though you’re still young, you can consider
seeing somebody seriously. What do you think about that, Lila?”
Lila had no idea what to say to that. Because of Janet, she was beginning to feel more and more uncomfortable living in the
White family’s house. If she could get married to a good man, it would be good to have her own family. Lila bit her bottom lip and
asked, “Who is this guy you’re talking about?”
Seeing that Lila didn’t turn her down, Johanna immediately pulled out her phone, clicked on the album, and began to introduce a
suitor in detail. “He’s the son of the Gray family. They export fruit and they have been running chain stores for many years now.”
Lila had already heard of the Gray family. She even made fun of them once with her best friends that they were simply a bunch
of bumpkins who sold fruits.
Seeing that Lila was not answering, Johanna went on to say, “They’re not a big family. Even though they’re not a powerful
family, they’re still a rich one. The family members are simple folks, so they won’t be fighting for wealth as the rich and powerful
looking and gentle, and he won’t flirt with other women like many men in rich families do.”
Johanna had watched Lila growing up. She knew full well that sometimes Lila could be domineering, so a tolerant husband
would be the most suitable to her. Lila had been spoiled by her and Beal since she was young. She knew that Lila didn’t have
any people’s smarts.
If she married into a rich family who had internal conflict, she would only be bullied again and again. Johanna also knew Lila
was unwilling to say sorry even though she was wrong. What worried Johanna most was that Lila’s personality would be the
reason people mistreated her. When she heard this, Lila felt a little disappointed in her heart.
The Gray family in Barnes happened to be a family selling fruits. If she married into this family, she would beca laughing
stock. This family happened to be very different from Lila’s ideal husband’s family background. She thought even if she would
marry into a less rich family, it wouldn’t be a small family like the Grays.
As expected, Johanna found her biological daughter, so she wasn’t taking Lila seriously and arranged such a shabby marriage
for her. At the stime, Lila couldn’t say it out loud directly.
“Is this something you want? Do you really wantto get married, Mom?” Lila’s eyes reddened.
Johanna initially thought that Lila was afraid of getting married because she didn’t want to leave them so soon.
this suitor for you. Your father also thinks that the second child of the Gray family is a very good man.” Johanna happened to
think that the Gray family was very suitable for Lila.
After all, everyone now knew Lila wasn’t their biological daughter. If Lila married into a rich and powerful family that was equal to
the White family, she might be looked down upon by others and even get bullied.
It was true that the Gray family was not as good as the White family in terms of family background. But they were honest, good
people.
Besides, the Gray family and the White family were cooperating with each other. If Lila married this man, she wouldn’t be bullied
by her husband’s family at all, for they were counting on the Whites to look after their fruit business. Lila was only good at having
fun and she didn’t have much ability or talents.
She wasn’t good nor capable enough to beca wife of a rich and powerful family. It was better for her to marry into a simple
family and live a stable life for the rest of her life. Johanna caressed Lila’s hair and said, “It’s only natural that girls get married.
Look at Janet. She’s so happy after she got married. Now, Dad and Mom are worried about you the most. You’re not a little girl
anymore. You can’t live with us for the rest of your life like this. If you go through with this marriage, you can beca full-time
wife for the Gray family. Also, your life will be as good as your current life now.”
Lila pinched her hands and a touch of frostiness danced through her eyes. She never expected Johanna to be so cruel. Janet
happened to marry Brandon Larson, a legend of Seacisco. No woman who could marry a better man than Janet. Lila felt
enraged and couldn’t get rid of her anger. Seeing Johanna pretending to act considerate toward her, Lila felt even angrier and
more dissatisfied in her heart.
