Chapter 725 Don't Be Fooled
"So what? Marriage and life are our own. We don't want to live with you." Eva said coldly, "It's useless for you to force me with this. It's not difficult for me to quit the entertainment circle in advance. I can quit to open a studio behind the scenes and be a producer. In short, I can do anything for my Vinton."
Elizabeth was cunning and not a fool. Of course she knew that it was not a big deal to withdraw from the entertainment circle. She just wanted to test the feelings of Eva for her son.
In fact, the friendship between women was very fragile. If they couldn't stop Vinton from marrying Eva, she would win her over, break up her alliance with Essie, and turn against each other.
She smiled slightly and said, "Well, in fact, I was just testing you to see if you really love Vinton, not to ask you to quit the entertainment circle."
Eva was shocked, "Testing me?"
"Vinton is my son. I only hope that he is good. I won't hurt him. He is too kind and soft hearted. The reason why I had to make decisions for him before was that I was afraid that he would be used. I didn't expect him to misunderstand me. " Elizabeth sighed heavily.
Eva looked at her. The sudden change of the style made her a little uncomfortable. "Do you think I will make use of Vinton? I don't want his money, nor your Xu family's property. What can I use him for? "
"I've walked much more than you have eaten. I know what kind of person you are at a glance. The reason why I don't want you to marry Vinton is not only because of your relationship with Essie, but also because of your character. You are the same as Vinton. You are upright, innocent and kind- hearted. As long as others treat you a little better, you will regard them as Bodhisattva. If that person is evil and wants to hurt you, you two will be fooled," Elizabeth said slowly.
Eva took a sip of tea and didn't say anything. She believed that Elizabeth's evaluation was positive. She should hope that her daughter-in-law would be as cunning and cruel as Valery.
However, since her tone became so euphemistic, she had to keep polite. Anyway, she was Vinton's mother, her future mother-in-law.
"The person you refer to is Essie?" She pretended to be innocent.
"I know you and Essie are good friends. You trust her unconditionally. She is also very good to you. The reason why a person as stubborn as you can be famous in the entertainment circle is partly because of her help. But I'm sure that she didn't mean to help Vinton," Elizabeth said in a low voice.
"Do you think Essie is going to compete with Vinton for the family property? The Rong family will be her son's in the future. Will she still care about the Xu family? " Eva sneered. She knew her best friend.
Elizabeth sighed, "So you are innocent and naive. Of course, Essie wouldn't fight for it, but she would help Holy fight for it. You don't know how Holy came, do you? Now that you are going to marry into our family soon and become the daughter-in-law of our family, you should also know what happened in the past. You should have a clear mind. "
She paused, took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and then said slowly, "Holy's mother is the lover that Alice specially found for her father. Her purpose is to create a grandson for the Xu family and compete with me and Vinton for the family property! Although Alice had lost her memory and forgotten her original intention, Essie still remembered. And now, everything she had done was moving towards this goal. She is going to push Holy to the throne step by step. "
Looking at the green tea in her cup, Eva showed an expression of indifference. In fact, it didn't matter whether Vinton would be in charge of the Xu family or not. Money and power were all worldly possessions. She and Vinton didn't need to rely on the Xu family at all. They could work together to fight for their own career.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
"Do you want Vinton to be the leader for him or for yourself?"
"Of course I did it for Vinton. He is my son. As long as he is good, then I'm satisfied," Elizabeth said in a firm tone, fearing that Eva would not believe her.
However, Eva really didn't believe it. "Vinton has a chance to be in charge. When the Xu group was in crisis, you could have promoted Vinton to the position of chairman. Why did you yourself choose to be the chairman?"
"Could Vinton handle the situation at that time? Even if he becomes the chairman, he can't take over the overall situation. " Elizabeth sighed, "As her mother, who can stand out for him if I don't stand out?"
With a faint smile, Eva said, "Since Vinton doesn't have the ability to do that, why do you force him to be the leader? Isn't it good to be an idle shareholder?"
A strange light flashed through Elizabeth's eyes. Every question of Eva was within her expectation, and she was guiding her in the direction she wanted step by step.
"So you are so naive! Do you really think that Vinton can be an idle director after Holy takes office? He always believes that his mother was killed by me and hated me. The first thing he would do when he becomes the chairman was to deal with me, Valery and Vinton. He will try every means to drive us out of the Xu family, we will even lose our lives. Especially Vinton. He is the biggest threat to Holy. In order to consolidate his position, Holy will definitely get rid of him as soon as possible. "
Eva couldn't help shivering, "I think you are not talking about the fight between the powerful clans, but the fight for the throne."
"A rich family is a small kingdom. Profit is more important than family affection. In ancient times, in the battle for the throne, who would end up good when they failed? In the four great clans of the Dragon City, there was blood hidden under the calm surface. The eldest son of the Rong family, the third son of
the Jing family, the fourth son of the Qin family... Those people died abnormally. On the surface, they were in car accident, suicide and love triangle, but in fact, they were all killed in the family struggle and secretly attacked by the current leader,"
Elizabeth said that on purpose to frighten Eva. She was so cunning that she could tell that Eva was simple and innocent. She believed that if she said so, Eva would definitely be nervous.
After taking a big sip of tea, Eva suppressed the coldness on her back and her face turned a little pale. She had seen that Essie and Elizabeth had fought to the death with each other several times and almost died. Therefore, she felt that Elizabeth was not simply alarmist. The power struggle was indeed very terrible, similar to what she had acted in the script.
Seeing her expression, Elizabeth pursed her lips and continued, "If I'm not wrong, I think that Essie should start to improve the brotherhood between Vinton and Holy. She would definitely ask Holy to pretend to be friendly and harmonious to Vinton, so as to paralyze Vinton and make him put down his guard. Then she would say something to him to make them work together to manage the Xu group all the time. It seemed reasonable on the surface, but in fact, it was to create time for Holy. After all, he was still young and his wings were not full. Even if he wanted to take charge of the Xu group, he had to wait until eighteen years old. During this period of time, if Vinton doesn't compete with him, he will be able to grow up at ease. "
She paused, reached out her hand and patted it, looking very kind. "I said so much just to make you be on guard. There was no way to harm others, but it is necessary to guard against others. You are kind- hearted by nature. It's not good for you to fight for power and profit. I only hope that you can be smart and don't fall into the trap of others and cheat your husband. If you marry Vinton, you are bound to him. As long as he is good, you will also be good. So is your future child. "
Eva nodded, "Thank you for your warning. Don't worry. I won't do anything to hurt little Vinton, and I won't allow anyone to hurt him." Her tone was calm and firm.
"That's good. As long as you can fully stand on Vinton's side and help him, I will not object to your marriage." After saying that, Elizabeth stood up. She believed that Eva's psychological defense had been shaken by her. If he could turn her around and stand by her side, it would be a fatal weapon to deal with Essie. Anyway, in a woman's heart, her husband and family were always more important than best friends and friendship.
Not long after she left, Essie called. She planned to go to the private villa on weekend and ask Eva and Vinton to come together.
When she arrived at the villa, Eva saw Holy at the first sight. She was slightly shocked. It was the first time that Essie took him out with them. Did Elizabeth really make it right that she wanted to improve the brotherhood between her
little Vinton and Holy?
"Sis Eva." Holy smiled and turned to Vinton, "Brother." he said two words in a low voice.
Vinton nodded slightly and smiled at him.
"Uncle, aunt, little uncle, shall we go to pick oranges together?" Mili giggled and ran over. She held Vinton's hand and Holy's. Her mother gave her the task of promoting the relationship between her elder uncle and younger uncle. She was lively, naughty and eloquent. It was the best thing for her to do.
"Let's go." With a soft smile, Essie held the hands of Dot and Rabi. Zac was in charge of taking care of the little baby. After all, he was Zac's considerate sweetheart son.
"Uncle, I can't take enough. Hold me." Mili reached out her hand to him in a spoiled manner.
Vinton smiled and picked her up.
Looking at the two of them, Essie covered her mouth and smiled, "Brother, this is a good opportunity for an internship. After you have a baby with Eva, you will know how to take care of the baby."
"I've set my plan to give birth to a baby at the age of thirty. There are still a few years ahead." Eva smiled shyly.
"Mrs. Vicki still hopes to have a great grandson as soon as possible. If you two can't give birth to two baby in three years, she will be unhappy," Essie said jokingly.
"Then let's have one first, lest grandma will nag." Vinton smiled evilly. Peace was the most important thing.
Holy looked at them, a deep look quietly flashing across his eyes.
