Facing Old Master Shen's granddaughter-in-law, the only thing Yayoi had confidence in was Maddox's love for her.
Wendy took a deep breath and looked at her sharply, "Miss Song, why do you like being a home wrecker so much?"
"A home wrecker?" Yayoi raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Maddox has never dated you before. How could I be a home wrecker?"
Wendy narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "Maddox and I are engaged. If you are not the home-wrecker, should it be me?"
Yayoi's face turned pale, but she quickly recovered. She smiled, "Miss Xu, do you think you two will get married after engagement?"
Wendy stared at her and said, "Yes?"
"Of course not. Today, Maddox brought me here to break off your engagement."
Hearing that, Wendy's eyes suddenly widened with disbelief.
Yayoi continued to smile, "Miss Xu, don't delude yourself. Maddox doesn't love you. So what if you are engaged? If you are married, do you think you will be happy?"
Wendy knew clearly that Maddox didn't love her. But she thought love could be nurtured. As long as they got married and came to get along with each other, he would definitely see her merits and fall in love with her.
However, it was ruthlessly destroyed by the woman in front of her.
But she couldn't give the man she had loved for many years to this woman.
Wendy closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, she opened her eyes and saw two men walking down the stairs. Suddenly, she reached out and pushed Yayoi.
Yayoi was pushed unprepared. She subconsciously raised her hand to grab Wendy's. She narrowly steadied her body, but Wendy fell.
"Wendy!" said an aged and panicked voice.
Yayoi stared blankly at Wendy who had suddenly fallen to the ground. Wasn't it Wendy who pushed her? Why did she fall?
What exactly happened?
Yayoi was dumbfounded, completely unable to figure out the current situation.
"Yayoi, are you alright?" said a familiar voice.
Yayoi slowly turned around and squeezed out a smile towards Maddox's worried black eyes. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine.”
Wendy, who was sitting on the ground, had thought that Maddox would come and help her up first. But she did not expect that he cared more about Yayoi.
She looked at them with hate and jealousy.
"Brat, can't you see that Wendy is still sitting on the ground? Why not help her up first?" Old Master Shen slapped his cane on Maddox's back. Maddox took a deep breath in pain and obediently went over to help Wendy up.
As soon as she got up, Maddox was about to withdraw his hand. But Wendy grabbed his arm tightly.
He frowned and turned to look at Wendy.
But Wendy grabbed his hand and said, "Maddox, my leg really hurts."
Maddox pursed his lips and smirked at her, "I am not a doctor. It is no use telling me that."
He threw her hand away and strode towards Yayoi without hesitation.
His voice was cold, which chilled her heart. Wendy stared at his back and slowly clenched her hands. She would not let go of him just like this.
Old Master Shen looked at Yayoi from head to toe with undisguised contempt. He snorted coldly, "Miss Song, although the Shen family does not pay much attention to family background, you are not eligible."
Old Master Shen was telling her clearly that the she was not eligible to be a member of the Shen family.
Yayoi, who had been nervous, calmed down miraculously when she heard that. She raised her chin and looked at Old Master Shen without showing any weakness. She smiled slightly, "Mr. Shen, I never thought of being a member of the Shen family. All I want is Maddox."
"Really?" Old Master Shen laughed out loud and looked at her mockingly. "Who is not realistic now? If Maddox was from a poor family, would you insist that you only want him?"
"I will" Yayoi answered without hesitation. Then, she smiled mockingly, "Old Master Shen, not everyone is as snobbish as you think. I love Maddox. I don't care even if he is ugly and poor."
Hearing that, Maddox was moved. He walked to her side and held her in his arms. Then, he looked at Old Master Shen's face which was full of wrinkles but still energetic. "Grandpa, Yayoi and I truly love each other. Please give us your blessing."
"No way!" He struck his walking stick heavily on the marble floor, making a heavy muffled sound. Yayoi's heart trembled. Old Master Shen was going to lose his temper.
Old Master Shen's face was cold and his gaze was sharp. He said word by word, "You want my blessing? Over my dead body!"
