Capítulo 1754: Chapter 1754: Overwhelming Jealousy
Both families were eager to marry their daughter to Harry Hall. On the surface, they seed amicable, but in private, there was a fierce undercurrent of competition.
Their families used every conceivable thod to win Harry Hall as their son-in-law.
They thought that after a year of Harry taking care of that comatose person, his patience must have worn thin.
But then, that comatose person woke up, and just when they were feeling disappointed, they learned that although the person had woken up, she couldn’t walk anymore.
With soone of Harry Hall’s stature and status, how could he possibly marry a girl with crippled legs?
Well, if she woke up, then so be it. The fact that she was disabled made their daughters seem all the more advantageous by comparison.
Afterwards, as they anticipated, they broke up. Although Harry sotis visited Helen lendy, it was clearly less frequent than an engaged couple should.
They started busying themselves again, trying to find ways to marry their daughters into the Hall Family. But now…
They actually saw Leo Hall bringing that disabled woman to such an important banquet at the President’s house.
One must know what kind of people attend such an event. Leo Hall bringing Helen lendy is to tell everyone that this disabled woman is going to be the Young Lady of the future Hall Family.
Harry Hall was completely fearless of being laughed at for marrying a disabled person. Not only did he want to marry her, but he wanted everyone to know, openly and publicly. It was just…just…
The families who wanted to match their daughters with Harry Hall were utterly incensed.
Their daughters actually lost to a disabled woman.
Harry Hall pushed Helen lendy in a wheelchair, escorted by security personnel, into the President’s house.
She naturally did not ignore the various gazes cast at her from around, curious, shocked, kind, and of course, those filled with malice and mockery…
Everything was there.
She was well-prepared to be ogled, but being stared at like this still made her a bit uneasy.
Harry Hall noticed this, bent down, leaned close to her ear, and whispered:
“Don’t be nervous. You’re the most beautiful one tonight, and they’re just jealous of you.”
Helen lendy helplessly chuckled. Jealousy might be true, but as for being the most beautiful…
“Aren’t you ashad of boasting like that?”
Harry Hall had an expression of indifference, “I’m telling the truth, why would I feel ashad?”
As the two continued to walk inside, whispering to each other, their faces adorned with unmistakable smiles, it was an eyesore to many.
But out of deference to Harry Hall’s presence, they couldn’t express too much hostility.
This ti, the invitations from the President’s house included many who ca with their wives and children. If those fathers were gnashing their teeth at Helen lendy, then those young daughters were enviously wishing they could swallow her up.
Harry Hall pushed Helen lendy into the banquet hall, greeted the President, and then moved to find Elly Campbell and her husband.
“Helen, you’re here.”
Elly Campbell approached, seeing Helen lendy’s carefully adorned face. Even if her legs were inconvenient, she was still the most striking person in the room.
She couldn’t ignore the hostile gazes that had just been directed at Helen lendy.
Those won might have little to offer personally, but their jealousy was so fierce it made them uglier than they realized.
Adam Jones raised his hand to look at his watch, and said, “At this ti, Leo Hall should have arrived about now. Why isn’t he here yet?”
