Chapter 73 – Back Home to Marry Off Myself Novel

Landon suppressed anger in his heart. He had to admit that Cormac was really bold and decisive. That young man forced to reverse the situation that was not originally good for him.

“Warner, see them off.” Heard his father’s words, Warner, who was standing at the door, hurriedly followed Jayden. “Uncle Mendelsohn, let me see you off,” he said with a warm smile.

Jayden didn’t respond. Thomas pulled the car door open. Jayden bent over and sat in. Glancing at

Warner standing next to the car, he said, “Please send my words to your dad … I didn’t take what happened just now to heart.”

It was not wise to break up with each other, for all of them.

“Sure, I’ll tell him.” Warner nodded, closed the door for him gently, and said to the driver, “Drive carefully.”

Warner didn’t return to the house until the car roared away. Landon was sitting in the living room with a long face, starting at his sons and daughter. He wanted to scold them but he couldn’t find any word.

At the end, he sneered. “Cormac Herbert is so tricky.”

Warner happened to hear this comment as soon as he walked in. He couldn’t help but glance at his younger brother and heaved a sigh. “We are so incompetent comparing to him. I thought Maria could marry him so we could become in-laws. I didn’t expect things would become like this…”

“Are you done?” Maria roared. She was the saddest person since the engagement was called off, wasn’t she?

“If you were capable enough, would he cancel the engagement?” Landon yelled back at her. He stood up, patting the table.

The whole family was in a chaos just because of her engagement. How dared she blow up?

Camilla walked to Landon in a hurry, patting on his back to comfort him. “She’s just an insensible kid.

Don’t be mad.”

“My own sons are not as good as others. Who else can I blame?” Landon flicked his sleeves, turned around, and walked into his room.

Camilla followed him, continuing to comfort her husband.

She was afraid that he would sulk.

Warner also felt disappointed at his younger brother. He called the servants to tidy up the living room before returning to his own room.

Only Sampson and his trembling sister were left in the living room.

“Let me send you back to your room,” said Sampson gently. He helped Maria up.

“Why?” Maria still couldn’t accept the fact that Cormac wanted to call off their engagement until now.

She couldn’t understand how come this matter would get to this point.

That woman had disappeared for six years.

Why did she appear again?

Grabbing Sampson’s collar, she asked, “Sampson, it’s been so many years. Why haven’t you made her your date?”

If Loredana had become Sampson’s date, even Cormac had found her, he wouldn’t be interested in her, would he?

“You are exhausted. Have a good rest.” Sampson helped her sit on her bed.

However, Maria was not willing to let him go. “Sampson.” She stared at him, throwing questions at him,

“Why did you save her back then? Why didn’t let her die? As long she was dead, no one could steal

Cormac away from me…”

Sampson frowned. “What nonsense are you talking about?” He stopped her.

“I’m not talking nonsense!” Maria retorted emotionally. She stood up suddenly. Gazing at him, she continued sullenly, “In order to make Cormac feel guilty and marry me, I deliberately created a car accident. To make it real, I was really hit by a car. It hurt a lot! It hurt so much. So I want her to be hit the car as well…”

“Ha ha…”

Maria laughed out loudly.

Sampson was frozen at the spot, now knowing how to react. He had to look at his younger sister with new eyes.

How could she be so cruel?

He could still remember when she was a child she was so innocent and adorable.

“Maria.” Sampson looked at her. “Back then, why did you ask Loredana to pretend to yourself?” he asked.

This had always been something that he couldn’t figure out.

She had a chance to have sex with Cormac herself. But why did she send another woman to pretend to be herself?

Maria was startled, and then laughed. She collapsed onto her bed.

“I was afraid that he would dislike if he knew I was not a virgin.” Maria looked up as if she was haunted.

After a pause, she continued, “He took me in but he never touched me … I’m a human, a woman with normal physiology. I need my man to love me and touch me. Ho ho…”

Upon hearing it, Sampson was stiffened as if he was struck by lightning.

How could his younger sister be like this?

Maria kept laughing crazily. “I wanted to find him a virgin. Then I would tell him that was me, so it would turn out that I was a clean woman. I saved him when I was young and I’ve been with him for so many years, so he definitely would take the responsibility for me. Even if he doesn’t love me, he would treat me well. It turned out that I was right. He treated me very well. What I did was flawless except for…

That woman I picked up at random was an exception. I didn’t expect that she was from B City of China.

Most coincidentally, she was his fiancée according to his mother’s arranged marriage for him when he was young.”

If it were not for that woman, she should be living happily with Cormac together already.

Thinking of it, she couldn’t help blaming that woman. It was all her fault!

Maria was not reluctant at all, unwilling to give in.

She was the daughter from the Herbert family. With her identity and background, how could she be incompetent comparing to that woman?

Grabbing Sampson’s hand, she begged, “Sampson, please help me.”

Sampson looked at his younger sister, who seemed to be a stranger to him. He asked blankly, “What can I do to help you?”

Maria rolled her eyes. “You can… Well, you can …” She dragged him closer and whispered in his ear.

The more Sampson listened to her, the longer his face was pulled. He pushed her away at last.

“Impossible!”

“You are worn out. Sleep tight!” He walked out of her room without looking back after finishing his words.

“Sampson!”

No matter how Maria called him behind, Sampson didn’t stop or look back.

In the hospital, Cormac walked out of the entrance after having his wound bandaged. The driver followed him with the medicine in his hands. He reported, “Mr. Cormac, Thomas just called to ask about your situation. I told him it’s not serious and asked Mr. Mendelsohn not to worry…”

“Have you booked the air ticket I asked?” He interrupted the driver.

He was not interested in those trifles.

The driver reacted fast. He hurriedly answered, “Yes, I have. It’s the last flight today, at eleven o’clock.

Would you like to go home now?”

Cormac raised his wrist and checked the time on his watch … it was twenty to ten. There was more than an hour left.

“Go to the airport.” He walked down from the steps. The driver hurriedly followed him. “Mr. Cormac, you are injured. Aren’t you taking a rest first?” he suggested.

“No.”

The driver trotted ahead and opened the car door for him. He was about to continue convincing

Cormac to take a rest after getting injured. However, thinking about Cormac’s personality, the driver had to swallow back his words. Heaving a sigh, he trotted to the front and sat on the driver’s seat.

Country A.

In LEO Corporation, Samuel was sitting on the couch. In front of him there was a bunch of snacks. His big eyes blinked. “May I take away all of them?”

“Of course.” Female employees in this store all favored Samuel very much. He was cute and smart, so he could easily gain others’ hearts.

“Samuel, why are you taking them away instead of eating them here? Are you afraid of letting those misses to watch your eating manner?” Allison looked at Samuel, supporting her chin with her hands.

She was over forty, but she always insisted Samuel addressing her Missy.

With his bright eyes widened, Samuel looked at Allison innocently. “Auntie, my eating manner isn’t ugly.

I just want to take them back home for my younger sister.”

Allison’s face fell. Pretending to be upset, she pinched his cheek. “Can’t you stop being so straightforward? Can you call me Missy to please me?”

Samuel looked upright and answered, “My mommy told me not to tell lies.”

Allison was speechless.

She snorted. “Then you mommy also said you are not a good boy.”

“My mommy would never say so!” Samuel retorted.

“Don’t you believe me? Go ask your mommy.” Allison deliberately wanted to provoke him.

Now Loredana was in a meeting. If he went to her, he would make trouble.

Samuel slid off the couch. “I don’t believe you at all.”

Finishing his words, he ran away.

After the meeting, Loredana walked out from the conference room. Samuel ran to her. “Mommy!”

Loredana stopped. The little fellow still bumped into her lap. She bent down to touch his head. “Don’t run so fast next time.”

Samuel nodded obediently. “OK.”

“What do you want for lunch? Let’s go.” Loredana checked the time and found it was already noon.

“I’m not hungry.” Samuel grabbed Loredana’ hand and let her touch his tummy. “Look. It’s all bulging.”

“Are you pregnant?” asked Allison jokingly, who was stood behind him, crossing her arms on her chest.

Samuel looked back at her and retorted, “You should be the one who’s pregnant. Oh, no. Although you want to be pregnant, you cannot, as no young men would like an aunt.”

Allison rushed over. “Samuel Flores!”

Samuel hid himself in Loredana’ arms. “Mommy, help me! Auntie Allison is out of control again!”

Loredana held up her son helplessly. Whenever they two encountered each other, they would argue and fight.

She couldn’t do anything about it.

“I’m sorry, Missy Allison.” When Allison was about to pinch his ear, Samuel changed the way to address her quickly.

Allison had planned to pull his ear. Finally she turned to rub his hair. “It’s good that you reacted fast enough. Next time I wouldn’t show any mercy on you.”

“Ho ho.” Samuel was delighted. He escaped from jeopardy again.

“Excuse me, Lola. A customer from China gave up some specific requirements for her tailored wedding dress. Could you please have a look at them?” Loredana reached out and took over the file from her assistant. “When does the customer need it?” she asked.

“In half a month.” Loredana nodded. “I see.”

After lunch, Loredana devoted herself to work. Samuel was sitting next to her, playing DigitalBreakthrough.

However, the most difficult question was still a piece of cake for him. After playing for a short while, he had lost interest.

Then he fell asleep on the couch.

Loredana knocked off early. She held up her son when she was ready to go home.

“Mummy.” As soon as Loredana held him up, Samuel woke up.

He didn’t forget to take away those snacks back for his sister.

Loredana smiled. “You are a really good brother.”

Samuel rubbed his eyes and said proudly, “Of course.”

“Good boy.” Loredana rubbed her forehead against his.

Walking out of LEO Corporation, she held him to sit in the car.

It was not until they had arrived home did she realize that she had forgotten the file from Theresa. She hadn’t checked its content yet.

She sent her son into the house. Seeing her brother come back, Simona ran to them excitedly. Samuel raised the snacks in his hands and said to her proudly, “Simona, look what good food I’ve brought you!”

Simona had already become a foodie at this moment. Seeing the snacks in Samuel’s hands, she couldn’t help drooling. “Samuel, I want to eat them!” she exclaimed happily.
