Contract Marriage With Mysterious President novel Chapter 120

Occasionally, Richard would put food on Amy's plate. There had already been lots of food on her plate, so Amy had no choice but to speed up.

Amy had a good appetite. The food piled up on her plate wasn't a problem for her. Besides, she wasn't picky about food. Actually, she quite enjoyed eating.

Comparing her daughter-in-law and other women, Cathy smiled. She thought that Amy was indeed unpretentious. Amy ate whatever she wanted while other women only had a little food. Those women had stopped eating for quite a while so as not to get fat.

"Look at Amy. She eats whatever she wants. But she still has a very slim figure." After that, Cathy had someone fill a bowl of soup for Amy.

After Amy heard Cathy's words, she noticed that Hilary and she were the only ones who were still eating. While other women were looking at them.

Hilary was used to it. She was in her own home and wouldn't stop eating until she was full.

But Amy felt a little embarrassed. She looked around, discovering that those women were staring at her with disdain.

She could stop eating. But in that case, she would be hungry. However, if she continued, she might anger those women, which might also lead their turning against her. Holding the fork, Amy was in a difficult situation. She didn't know what she should do.

"A good appetite is a blessing. Amy, just be yourself. Don't worry about others." John said this with a gloomy face. He liked girls who had a good appetite.

Hearing John's words, Amy relaxed and stopped paying attention to those gazes. She realized that the most important thing now was to enjoy herself with delicious food.

"Amy, I want to discuss something with you." John also put down his fork.

"Okay, Grandpa, just tell me what you want." Amy hurriedly stopped eating and stared at John. She was waiting for John's words.

"I won't ask you to do anything. It's just a discussion. You married Richard. But Richard is not sensible enough to give you a proper wedding you deserve. In our family, this is not the right way to treat a wife. We won't let you suffer from such injustice." After John finished speaking, he glared at Richard.

Richard hurriedly lowered his head. He had been feeling ashamed for this. He didn't expect that his grandfather would mention this to Amy before him.

"It's fine." Amy waved her hand. When they got married, their marriage was just a contract. She never thought that she would have a wedding.

"No, we will not treat you like this. We will give you a grand wedding. Let's settle a date to meet your parents and discuss the proper etiquette with your families. I'll leave the wedding to Cathy and Sophia. Sophia is a high-born lady and always helps Cathy with the housework." John nominated the people in charge.

Although Sophia didn't want to do this, she did not show her unwillingness on the face. Instead, she immediately agreed with a smile.

"Since you're here, don't leave. Play cards with me later. Cathy, go arrange it and tidy up Richard's room. They'll stay tonight." John has made all the arrangements.

"Yes, Dad. You're so thoughtful. We'll play cards in a while. Amy, you must be careful. Grandpa is very good at cards." Seeing that John was nice to her daughter-in-law, Cathy was extremely happy.

Jacob Carter wasn't married yet, so he wasn't interested in such family matters.

William Carter was a man. And he was not very interested in these things, either. But Sophia was different. It had been a long time since John stopped playing cards. But after Amy came here, he offered to play cards with her. Sophia felt that John favored Amy.

"William, look at yourself. You are William Carter. But in the HD Group, you're just a manager without any real power. At home. You're not favored either. Why did I marry you?" Sophia pulled William into the room and started to lose her temper at him.

William didn't care about this trivia. He thought that men should do bigger things.

"Alright. Stop complaining. You have everything you want at home, right?" William comforted Sophia.

"What do you mean by saying I have everything I want? If it were not for the thing that happened to your mother, there would be no way that Cathy could marry into the Carter family! Now, everything belongs to them. We are just outsiders." When Sophia married William, she felt that it was a great honor to marry into the Carter family.

However, now being part of the family, she realized that Cathy was the hostess of the whole family and William's mother was in control of nothing.

"Don't worry, honey. Take your time. We'll get everything back." William didn't say anything more to Sophia. He thought Sophia was just a woman and he could satisfy her with a few comforting words. After all, he didn't believe that women could turn the world upside down.

"He even wants me to prepare for their wedding. That wedding must cost a lot. It makes me feel terrible as we are going to spend so much money on Amy. They had already married. That wedding is totally unnecessary! I heard that Amy was once abandoned. Only the Carters would consider her as a treasure!" Sophia knew Amy since she was her cousin's good friend.

"Right, I'll tell grandfather and mother that Amy was married once. I want to see whether they will still take her as a treasure after knowing this!" When Sophia thought of this, she immediately turned happy.

"What? Amy once married someone else? So, she is Richard's second marriage? Richard is better than me in everything, but his wife is not as great as my wife! My wife has only married me!" William was glad to know that he finally defeated Richard on something.

"Amy, you won again! You are so lucky today! You made us lose all the money we have." John pouted and showed everyone the money box in front of him. It was almost empty.

Richard helped Amy with the cards. He proudly showed everyone Amy's money box, which was filled with money.

"It seems after today's game, I need to draw some money from the bank? Amy, you ruined my reputation!" John said this with a bitter face.

"How about I give the money back?" Amy didn't know why she was so lucky today. She always got the cards she wanted. And Richard told her how to play the cards. It was like money wanting to come into her pocket.

When Janice heard that she could get her money back, she was delighted. She had already lost more than 2,000. But she could have afternoon tea again after Amy gave her money back. In fact, she did not mind losing money. And she had lost a lot of money before. But she didn't want to lose her money to Richard and Amy.

"What a bad idea! You won this money yourself. Keep it! You promised to play cards with me until ten o'clock. We still have more than an hour. No one is allowed to leave!" John asked the butler to get money for him again.
