Roselynn shrugged and said in a natural manner, “I’m capable of
everything, but not lying.”
She was telling the truth, so there wouldn’t be any flaws in her speech.
However, Milani was still unconvinced. She even thought Roselynn was
deliberately saying that to test her sincerity toward Emmanuel. Hmph.
Petty tricks. My cousin, Ruby, has already given me various warnings. This NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
tactic isn’t going to scare me now. It has only been such a short period
since my blind date with Emmanuel, yet this dense man has already
gotten married? Impossible!
Most importantly, there were no wedding photos hung in his house. Aside
from Emmanuel’s mother and sister, there wasn’t a third woman there.
Milani figured that was obviously a lie.
“Hal Your joke is quite funny, Roselynnl” Milani laughed, glossing over the
topic. “Let’s eat. I want to let you all assess my cooking skills.”
When bringing out the food, she even deliberately looked outside the yard
and saw a Maserati parked there.
Putting aside whether Emmanuel had indeed been promoted to the senior
management of Terence Group, Milani was determined to marry him just
for that luxury car.
Noticing Milani had braced herself this time and wasn’t as easily
dismissible as before, Roselynn could only watch helplessly.
She didn’t care much about Milani’s presence since there was someone to
take the burden of preparing the dinner off her shoulder. She was merely
worried about her brother. Hang in there, brother!
During dinner, Milani intentionally sat next to Emmanuel, causing him to
feel extremely ill at ease.
He didn’t have much appetite to eat and was only focused on how he
could get rid of Milani so she wouldn’t keep bothering him and his family.
“Dear, what’s wrong? Is the food I prepared not tasty?” Milani put on an
innocent and aggrieved expression.

Although her cooking skills were mediocre, she had made her best dishes
for that night’s dinner to display her good qualities. The food can’t possibly
taste bad, right?
Emmanuel simply regarded her with a resigned look without elaborating.
Seeing that, Alessandra hastily flashed a courteous smile. “You’re a
wonderful woman, Ms. Zimmerman. The dishes you prepared are
delicious. It’s rare to find women who can cook these days.”
“How are we rare? Aren’t I one?” Roselynn immediately pouted in
displeasure.
Alessandra had to mind her manners, but Roselynn didn’t.
Emmanuel quickly supported his sister. “That’s right. Roselynn’s cooking
tastes better.”
Milani’s mouth twitched as she took in how ungracious Emmanuel was.
Despite feeling very displeased, she still maintained a polite smile. “In that
case, I should learn more from you in the future, Roselynn.”

“Why do you need to learn from me?” Roselynn snickered. “You’re not my

sister–in–law nor a part of my family. I have no obligation to teach you.”
Women tend to make things difficult for other women.
Roselynn’s remark infuriated Milani. The latter gritted her teeth in
annoyance while cursing Roselynn inwardly. What’s with her arrogant
attitude? Does she think she’s so great just because she can cook? Serves
her right for not being able to make her own living and get married!
“Roselynn, watch your language,” Alessandra hastily interjected and
smiled at Milani apologetically. “Milani, Roselynn is just straightforward
with her words. Don’t take it to heart.”
Alessandra’s politeness was what kept Milani’s hopes alive.
After all, Ruby had taught Milani to adopt the strategy of capturing the
ringleader first to round up their followers. If she could win Alessandra’s
heart, she would be able to marry Emmanuel and be a part of the Lowe
family soon.
In the future, I’ll be the owner of that Maserati!
Milani suppressed her anger and grinned. “Mom, I won’t take it to heart!”
Pfft!
Emmanuel and Roselynn simultaneously spat out the food in their mouths.
“W–What did you just call my mom?” Emmanuel stared at Milani in
astonishment.
A look of disdain also spread across Roselynn’s countenance. Why does a
woman as shameless as she exists? Someone, please deal with this vixen!
