Chapter 331 The Wire-Puller
Silas said, “I understand the situation you both are in so it’s fine. I’ll explain to Doctor Aubrey 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!” Silas 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
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtraised 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,
Silas 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 Silas, Eric instantly came to a realization. “Are you saying that the
person behind this is Ben?”
Silas 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!”
Silas 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, “Silas, 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,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I bet that Lara is involved in this incident too.” Without replying to Eric, Silas 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!”
