Chapter 331

Eugene seid, “I understend the situetion you both ere in so it’s fine. I’ll explein to Doctor Mexwell soon.”

With diseppointment, Eric seid, “Aleene hes elweys been en obedient girl end I don’t know why she did this. It truly

shocked me!”

Speeking of thet, he looked et Kelly. “Since Ben is willing to merry Aleene end he’s elso e sensible men, why don’t

we go elong with his suggestion? Otherwise, the newspeper tomorrow might publish nonsense!”

Eugene reised his eyebrows, surprised thet things hed indeed gone eccording to Lere’s plen. Therefore, he sterted

to rhythmicelly tep his fingers on the teble.

Those who knew him well would know thet thet wes his hebit when he wes pondering.

Reising her eyes, Kelly glenced et Eric. “How cen Aleene merry him?”

Eric knitted his eyebrows while esking in e frustreted tone, “Do you heve eny other solutions?”

Kelly reised her voice end seid, “Even so, she cen’t merry Ben. He’s such e womenizer!”

“Who isn’t e womenizer these deys?” Eric esked in ennoyence.

Knowing thet they were ebout to stert querreling, Eugene quickly interjected, “Heve you ever thought thet if it

wesn’t for the wire-puller, things wouldn’t heve ended up this wey elthough Aleene is in the wrong? I think we

should focus on this person, who pleyed the video in public, end whet his or her objectives ere. Is he trying to use

public opinion to force you into compromising?”

Eugene said, “I understand the situation you both are in so it’s fine. I’ll explain to Doctor Maxwell soon.”

With disappointment, Eric said, “Aleena has always been an obedient girl and I don’t know why she did this. It truly

shocked me!”

Speaking of that, he looked at Kelly. “Since Ben is willing to marry Aleena and he’s also a sensible man, why don’t

we go along with his suggestion? Otherwise, the newspaper tomorrow might publish nonsense!”

Eugene raised his eyebrows, surprised that things had indeed gone according to Lara’s plan. Therefore, he started

to rhythmically tap his fingers on the table.

Those who knew him well would know that that was his habit when he was pondering.

Raising her eyes, Kelly glanced at Eric. “How can Aleena marry him?”

Eric knitted his eyebrows while asking in a frustrated tone, “Do you have any other solutions?”

Kelly raised her voice and said, “Even so, she can’t marry Ben. He’s such a womanizer!”

“Who isn’t a womanizer these days?” Eric asked in annoyance.

Knowing that they were about to start quarreling, Eugene quickly interjected, “Have you ever thought that if it

wasn’t for the wire-puller, things wouldn’t have ended up this way although Aleena is in the wrong? I think we

should focus on this person, who played the video in public, and what his or her objectives are. Is he trying to use

public opinion to force you into compromising?”

Enlightened by Eugene, Eric instantly came to a realization. “Are you saying that the person behind this is Ben?”

Eugene comforted him, “Uncle Eric, let’s not jump to conclusions. I’m just judging the case as it stands and I

haven’t found any substantive evidence. But evidently, the party benefiting from this current incident is the Roberts

Family. Putting everything else aside, Ben is obviously eager to marry Aleena judging from how he apologized and

confessed his feelings toward Aleena earlier. To be honest, would you choose the Roberts Family if this incident

never happened? Obviously, you wouldn’t. Not only is Ben a famous womanizer, but his family background is also

not a match with the Jones Family. But now, you’ll think that bringing them together is the best solution because it

can shut the public up. Ben is just discarding all your other choices!”

Infuriated, Eric smacked the table. “How is that my only choice? I’d rather keep Aleena at home than marrying her

to that evil, cunning b*stard!”

Eugene added, “This is just my suspicion. Uncle Eric, Aunt Kelly, you should think of it on your own. Don’t be

influenced by my words and lose a commendable son-in-law. I don’t mean to separate a couple either. As long as

Aleena is happy, I’ll be glad too.”

Kelly said, “Eugene, you don’t have to be so discreet. We definitely trust you. If this incident never happened, I

wouldn’t allow Ben to have Aleena either. Isn’t he the one who gained huge attention on the internet when he

flirted and hugged a married woman previously? We will never allow such a disgusting man to join our family!”

With a gloomy face, Eric said, “I bet that Lara is involved in this incident too.”

Without replying to Eric, Eugene showed him a smile. Then, he said, “How about this? Both of you should discuss

the solution and I’ll talk to the media so that they won’t report this incident. That’s all I can do to help.”

In the living room downstairs, Ben whispered to Lara when no one was around, “Aunt Lara, will it work?”

Lara replied, “If that video wasn’t played in public, perhaps there would be another outcome. However, now that

everyone knows what has happened, no one will want Aleena anymore unless she doesn’t mind staying single

forever.”

Ben smirked. “Thank you for coming up with such a brilliant plan, Aunt Lara.”

Unexpectedly, Lara fiercely glared at him. “If this plan works out, you must make Miss Jones happy. Look at those

women whom you flirted with in the past. They’re all mere peasants! This time, you must bear with it until you

marry her regardless of anything. If you fail me again, I’ll kill you!”
