"Grandma does indeed like antique vases, but she only likes porcelain, not these flashy foreign things."

Jasper Sinclair placed the picked crab at into Nora Northwood’s bowl, speaking without even looking up.

Rachel Woodward’s heart skipped a beat, and she glanced at the old lady, who just gave her a faint smile.

"It’s alright, I like all kinds."

That was what she said, but her tone wasn’t exactly enthusiastic.

She bit her lower lip hard, feeling her face burn.

Lynn Woodward tugged at her sleeve, signaling her not to mind and to refrain from saying more.

Rachel Woodward obediently sat quietly eating, but she still felt uncomfortable.

Halfway through the al, the second branch of the family stirred up trouble again.

"Jasper, don’t bla your Aunt for being nosy, but marriage should be between families of equal status. Otherwise, when the company encounters trouble in the future, it’ll all be on you to handle."

"You and Rachel grew up together, you’re well-matched and childhood friends."

As she finished, Rachel Woodward lowered her head, her face flushed with embarrassnt.

"Stop it, Aunt. Sinclair is already married."

"Oh, it seems Miss Woodward is aware that I’m married." Wiping his hands, Jasper Sinclair calmly spoke, "With the attitude you and your niece have, I thought my marital status didn’t matter much to you."

Leaning back in his chair, earlier he hadn’t had ti to deal with these two.

But now he was free, and he didn’t mind playing along with them for a bit.

The old lady had decided to turn a blind eye.

Besides, the behavior of the second branch was indeed excessive, speaking like this in front of Nora with such disregard!

The extended family quietly ate their al, pretending they hadn’t heard anything.

"Jasper, how could you say that? Your Aunt is thinking of your best interest. Marrying this woman, what good will it do you? If you married Rachel, then the Woodward Family..."

"Then what? The Woodward Family would use the Sinclair Family to beco stronger?"

With a scoff, Jasper Sinclair laid bare her little plan.

Ultimately, it was still for her family’s benefit.

"I was thinking, wouldn’t this be a win-win situation?" Lynn Woodward’s eyes darted around evasively.

"Win-win? Aunt, you sure dare to say so."

He was clear in his stance, and even if he wasn’t already married to Nora, he wouldn’t accept Rachel Woodward.

"Brother, isn’t your way of speaking a bit inappropriate?"

Jenson Sinclair spoke up in ti; his mother was indeed too impatient, but in front of so many relatives, Jasper seed a bit disrespectful to the elders.

"Oh?" Jasper Sinclair raised an eyebrow at him, "If you like her, why don’t you marry her?"

Jenson Sinclair wanted to say sothing, but was stopped by his father, who gestured towards the old lady. He understood what his father ant and had to swallow his pride, even though it was hard to bear.

The al was eaten in an atmosphere of chaos, and the old lady’s expression didn’t improve much.

"What’s the fuss? Keep at it and others will laugh at us!" the old lady coldly snorted, her gaze indifferent as she looked at Rachel Woodward.

That expression almost directly said that she shouldn’t have shown up today.

Rachel Woodward was caught in the middle, unable to speak or refrain from speaking.

For a mont, she felt so resentnt towards her aunt for insisting she co to the Sinclair Family and face humiliation today.

Lynn Woodward shut her mouth, not daring to speak anymore, and the second branch of the family didn’t receive any goodwill from the old lady.

However, she did beco quite famous among the Sinclair Family’s branches.

Now everyone knew that the daughter-in-law of the Sinclair Family’s second branch was clueless enough to try and introduce a wife to Jasper Sinclair, who already had one.
