Chapter 343 But I Like Her Too

• Zachary Luellen didn’t say a word. He only pressed his thin lips together, then strode out of Maplewood Manor in silence. His tall, sharp figure melted into the cold night outside and vanished.
• Luella Feifei pulled her gaze back and looked at Old Mrs. Luellen. “Mom, what I never understood is how Hazel ended up marrying Zachary. I checked—Hazel was a stand-in bride, right? Back then, all of Maritown knew Hazel Sullivan came back from the countryside, a total bumpkin. Mom, I know you too well. You’ve held the fort in the Luellen Family for years and doted on Zachary. You would’ve overseen his marriage completely. How could you let some country bumpkin marry Zachary in Hazel’s place? Mom, are you hiding something from me?”
• Luella Feifei was Old Mrs. Luellen’s own daughter. How could she not know how meticulous and forceful her mother was? She’d sent people to dig into Zachary Luellen and Hazel Sullivan’s marriage. It was full of holes, flimsy the moment you probed it. She’d come today to ask the matriarch straight to her face.
