A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 42

Wilson left his room in a hurry to answer a call. 

Alina then entered Wilson's bedroom.

Wilson's bedroom was mainly blue in colour, the bedding and curtains were all blue. There were small checkered patterns on the cloth. The computer on the table was also covered with blue cloth, it seemed like it hadn't been used in a long time. 

The sofa inside the room was also blue.

Alina went straight to the sofa and sat down.

Alina dressed up deliberately today to not embarrass Wilson. In fact, she put on a pair of high heels. Although she was not petite with a height of 172 cm, Wilson was still too tall in comparison. She hardly wore any high heels due to the nature of her job.

At this moment, she was indeed a little tired. Moreover, he was absent and she did not want to wander around aimlessly in the room. Alina was not curious about his personal life. She could listen to what he was willing to share, but she would not pry into his life on her own initiative. 

After waiting for half an hour, Alina heard footsteps behind her. She turned around to greet Wilson, but she saw Sophie and Silvia walk into the room instead.

Alina's bright smile froze for a moment, but she composed herself immediately. Alina smiled awkwardly. "Hello, Aunt Sophie, Silvia!"

"Please don't call me aunt. I think that you won't be visiting us anymore in the future. So, there's no need for us to act like we're close." Sophie said haughtily as she walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite Alina. She looked at Alina with contempt. Silvia sat down beside her.

"Mom, let me talk to her instead," Silvia said.

Sophie nodded. Silvia immediately addressed Alina, "Alina, don't blame us for being snobbish. I think it is obvious, with your status, my brother is out of your league. Although you may be very beautiful and shrewd, these are not important to us. What we need is not an in-law like you. My brother is now the president of Scott Group. He must find a partner with wealthy connections and background.

"You can see for yourself that my brother is not the only successor of Scott's and our family is not as glamorous as you may have imagined. Everyone else is scheming to put together their shares so that they could overturn my brother's position as president. In the Scott Family, girls will get 5% of the shares, and boys can get 10%. My family has one child less than my uncle's family. Alina, do you understand what I mean?"

Alina shook her head with a smile. "No, I don't understand!"

Silvia became a little impatient. "Actually, you don't have to know all this. All you need to know is that you will never be worthy of my brother. My brother has been putting in a lot of effort to expand the company over the years. The Scott Group now is much stronger and more influential than before. Because of this, countless women had tried their best to seduce my brother. Many young women from noble families wanted to marry into our family. Not only do they have wealth and connections, they are also just as beautiful and well-mannered like you. 

"To put it bluntly, you are less than nothing in our eyes. Don't dream of marrying into our family with a status like yours. Did you think that you could be part of the Scott Family just because of your beauty? Did you think our standards were that low?

"I admire your courage to step into our villa. To tell you the truth, My two cousins' girlfriends often come over to visit, but they have never been acknowledged by my uncle and aunt. They don't even treat them seriously.

"One of them is the daughter of the Cooper Family, and the other is the daughter of the Brooks family. Although Caitlin is the daughter of a mistress, and the Brooks Family is poor in comparison to the Scott Family, they are both much higher in status as compared to your family background. In the past, we all felt that Selma and Caitlin's family backgrounds were shameful. However, you have really changed our minds today! I never would have expected so many to be caught up in a daydream to marry into riches, and a beggar, no less!"
