A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 929 Can He Restore Everything

"Ingrid, we have a one wife system here. Only after divorcing your previous wife will you be able to marry another wife," explained Essie.

"But I heard that although there is only one legal wife for many men here, in fact, they have many wives. Isn't this the same as the system of polygamy in our country?" Ingrid said, "And they have more wives than my father."

'Ingrid has only been in Dragon City for a few days, and she even knows these ugly and dark sides. She has adapted to them too fast, hasn't she?' Essie thought.

"Sister in law, how did you know that?" she touched her forehead and asked.

"I want to know more about it, so I check it on the Internet. I want to watch the news on the Internet. There were always some news about some people's chaotic private life on the Internet. I guess what you mean by 'raise a mistress' is equivalent to a nominal wife, right?"

"Sister in law, the woman men are raising outside is not a wife, but a mistress. Such a person is an immoral home wrecker here, and will be despised by the world. Each of them wants to drive a man's first wife away and then become a wife themselves,"

explained Essie.

"Yes, aunt. If you ask Uncle to find another woman, she will try her best to drive you away, and then marry him and become his legal wife. Your mother-in-law, uncle's mother, did this. She drove away your father-in-law's first wife and ascended the position," Mili replied.

"The most important thing is that the mistress here, like your mother-in-law, doesn't ascend the position by legal means. Instead, all of them want to kill the first wife and come up with all kinds of schemes to

hurt her. Some of our first wife will be directly killed. My grandma was almost killed by your mother-in- law, and she was disfigured."

Ingrid's face turned pale with fear.

'Oh my God! I didn't expect my mother-in-law to be such a person. I thought she was a good person when I saw her amiable face. I didn't expect her to be so horrible.' she thought.

"If you want to know the relationship between a wife and a mistress in our country, you can go to see the imperial-harem competing play in the imperial household, 'The Legend of Zhen Huan'. It's very similar to the fight between the wife and mistress in the rich families nowadays," Mili added.

Essie cleared her throat and reminded her to be careful.

She pouted, "It's okay, Mommy. Since aunt has married uncle and become a member of the Xu family, she should know the dark history of the Xu family."

Vinton didn't say anything. After all, his mother couldn't wash white even with ten tons of laundry detergent. Just let them talk.

This time, there was another important thing to ask Essie, "Essie, I heard from my mommy that after my accident, daddy appointed Holy as the successor of the Xu family, right?"

Essie nodded. "After your accident, the business in Southeast Asia was also affected, and the stock of the Xu group fell. In order to stabilize the situation, Mr. Baron announced the new successor."

"So, in the tsunami, I not only lost Eva, but also lost the inheritance right of the Xu family?" There was a touch of resentment on Vinton's face.

"Brother, you are back now. The market in the Southeast Asia still belongs to you. I have discussed with Mr. Baron that he will separate the Southeast Asia as an independent region. You are the

president and chairman of the Southeast Asia region," said Essie.

"Is this my compensation?" Vinton snorted.

"At that time, the people sent out to look for you picked up your things from the sea. Everyone thought that you were in danger. Mr. Baron's action was also an expedient to stabilize the stock price of the Xu group."

"Essie, tell me the truth. Do you think I can make it up?" Vinton asked.

"I don't know, brother," said Essie honestly. She didn't know whether he was referring to Eva or the position of the successor of the Xu group. She was not God and could not predict the future.

Vinton clenched his fist and smashed it on the armrest of the wheelchair. If he couldn't take over the Xu family, how could he fight against Jim? How could he get Eva back?

"Brother, the most important thing for you now is to cure your leg," Essie comforted.

Vinton clenched his teeth. Indeed, if he couldn't even walk, and if he had to sit on a wheelchair all his life, how could he make Eva happy?

Essie patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you have to calm down. I will try my best to fight for the best interests for you."

After Ingrid led the children to the yard to play, she said, "If I could have known earlier that you are still alive, Mr. Baron would not have made such a hasty decision. Eva would also not..." She stopped, and the rest of the sentence was self-evident.

"We had the notice of looking for someone in Country F, and Zac's men had been staying in the Southeast Asia to look for you. I think Ingrid's father must have seen it a long time ago. It was also

through that he knew your identity. That was why he wanted to marry his daughter to you to make an ally with the Xu family."

"That old fox is very cunning," Vinton said angrily.

"I hope Ingrid is as innocent as she looks. Don't be as calculating as her father." Essie sighed.

"If she is a scheming bitch, I will divorce her. I hate scheming bitches the most," Vinton said through gritted teeth.

"In aunt Elizabeth and your sister's eyes, she is a good candidate, much better than Eva. I think they will like Ingrid very much," said Essie on purpose.

"But I only like Eva. The only person I want to marry is Eva," Vinton said firmly.

"How was your talk with Eva last time?" asked Essie.

A hint of disappointment flashed through Vinton's eyes. "I know that he chose Jim because she cares about the existence of Ingrid. She has a shadow in her heart and can't accept that I have another woman. Moreover, as long as my marriage with Ingrid still exists, I can't marry her formally."

"You are right. It's impossible for Eva to be your lover all her life." With a sigh, Essie said, "Brother, since things have come to this, why don't you just let it go and live a peaceful life with Ingrid?"

"I don't love her. How can I live with her? I married her on the spur of the moment, just in order to do the retina transplant surgery and restore the eyesight. In order to come back as soon as possible, I don't want to live under other people's roof and even my everything I did in the bridal chamber during the wedding night had to be monitored," Vinton said resentfully.

"Brother, I know how you feel. But Ingrid has a child after all. The child is innocent, and the baby is your flesh and blood," said Essie.

"I know. That's why I didn't divorce Ingrid immediately. I can only wait until she gives birth to the baby." Vinton said with a hint of sadness on his face, "I really hope that Eva can wait for me. After Ingrid gives birth to the baby, I will divorce her and regain my freedom. But she doesn't seem to be willing to do that."

"Brother, you should know that Eva has been living in a single parent family since she was a child. She knows the pain of losing a father or mother. How could she do such a thing?" said Essie.

"I know her concerns, but it's not our fault. It's all God's fault. It's the tsunami that separated us. We almost separated by death. Why should we follow its arrangement? Why can't we resist? I just don't accept my fate. My fate is up to me. I want to defeat it," Vinton said indignantly.

"Brother, it's impossible for people to fight against the God. If you and Eva are not lucky enough, you can't force yourself to be together. It has a lot of ways to separate you, either let you part alive or separate you by death. You might as well give up."

Essie comforted, "There is a saying that it's better to forget each other than to be together. As long as you can see each other, make friends and get along with each other, it will be a comfort even if you can't be a couple."

"No, Eva is mine. I can't let anyone take her away from me. Didn't she hold a wedding with me after I disappeared? She is my wife nominally." Vinton's handsome face was full of persistence and willfulness.

Essie was very worried. If Vinton was unwilling to give up on Eva, there would be endless entanglement. She didn't want him to be the second Janice.

"By the way, brother, has Janice gone to see you?" She asked. Vinton's return should be good for Janice. Maybe she would go to see Vinton.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"No, she didn't come to me. I'm not familiar with her. Why did she come to me?" said Vinton.

"That's good. You just came back, but you don't know that Janice has dual personality disorder, which is a mental disease. Once she changes into a secondary personality, she will do terrible things. Eva was almost killed by her several times. You must be careful. Don't get too close to her, okay?"

"Isn't it her sister who is suffering from mental disease? Why is she also suffering?" Vinton was slightly surprised.

"In fact, Janet is very normal. She doesn't have mental disease. It's just that Janice secretly gave her hallucinogen, which caused her to have hallucinations and act like a mental patient. That's why everyone misunderstands that she has mental disease," explained Essie.

"Oh, I see. This woman is really horrible. She even harm her own sister." Vinton was shocked, "Is it because of this that Jim abandoned her?"

"Jim doesn't love her for a long time. Even if she is a normal person, he won't want her," said Essie.

"Janice has been cured physically and now has a mental problem. What kind of inheritance is this?" said Vinton.

"There is a big problem with their family. It is said that they have three inherited diseases. I guess Janice has inherited it unfortunately." Essie continued, "But Nicholas is doing a research to separate the inherited disease factors from the embryo, so that she can give birth to a healthy child."
