Chapter 163: Good Thing Ryan Didn’t Say It

Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Good Thing Ryan Didn’t Say It

Granted, Julian Sterling has a head for business, and he’s worked hard to get where he is.

But if he didn’t have a woman at home who could handle things so he didn’t have to worry, his career wouldn’t have been so successful!

That’s why marrying a good, supportive wife is so important.

You could even say it determines a man’s future prospects!

If Julian had married Jane Jacobs back then, that woman was only with him for his money. She would’ve only been after his wealth, not truly devoted to him.

Even if Julian didn’t give her money, she would have found ways—playing the victim, acting wronged—to get money from him, even tricking him out of it.

"Mom, I understand now why you and Dad went to such lengths! This time, as long as Eve agrees to remarry me, I promise I’ll build a good life with her. I won’t make you and Dad worry anymore."

"You... If only you’d realized this sooner! Why did you have to make your father and me worry so much? And to think it would lead to... this mess between you and your brother!" Florence Morgan sighed again. "You’ve torn our family apart. Now your brother is angry with me, too."

And now, Florence Morgan didn’t even dare to call her younger son.

She was afraid he would confront her about meddling in the business between Julian Sterling and Evelyn Grant!

She truly hadn’t been fair in this matter.

But Florence Morgan hadn’t shown favoritism because she loved her elder son more! It was just that... the whole world knew about Julian and Evelyn’s marriage! If they divorced, there would be endless gossip.

If it had been Ryan and Evelyn threatening to divorce, Florence Morgan would have tried to help them reconcile, too.

She couldn’t just stand by and watch her own son get divorced, could she?

"He’s only obsessed with Evelyn because he never had her! Once he meets someone more suitable, he’ll give up on the idea."

"I hope so! Later, after all this blows over, find a chance to talk to your brother alone and smooth things over. You can’t stay deadlocked like this forever! Think about your father and me. At our age, we still have to worry about the relationship between our two sons."

Julian Sterling grunted in agreement. "Don’t worry. As soon as I’ve sorted things out with Eve, I’ll go find Ryan. No matter what, we’re blood brothers. We’re not going to cut ties for a lifetime over a woman. I was the one who always took care of him when we were kids. He knows that deep down."

"I never would have imagined that the girl Ryan has liked all this time was actually Eve! If he hadn’t said it himself, I wouldn’t believe it!"

Back then, Florence Morgan had simply thought how wonderful it would be to have a sweet girl like Eve as her daughter-in-law.

So she had let her choose for herself.

If she had known at the time that her younger son was interested in her...

Then Florence Morgan definitely would have recommended Ryan Sterling more! After all, no matter which one she married, she would still be her daughter-in-law. 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

It wouldn’t have come to this, where she’d ended up on the bad side of both of them!

"Mom... It’s a good thing Ryan didn’t say anything back then. Otherwise, Eve and I would never have been fated to become husband and wife! I’m so grateful to you now for stopping me from marrying Jane Jacobs and letting me be with Eve."

Julian Sterling had to cut off his mother’s train of thought.

He couldn’t let anyone think that Ryan Sterling and Evelyn Grant were a good match.

’What would I do then?’

"I can see it now. You truly want to make amends. That sets my mind at ease."
