Chapter 1643

Jacob just turned a blind eye to Erica's swollen cheeks and let loose a barrage of accusations against her. At that time, Erica was filled with fear and confusion.

But now, when the same thing happened, with Larkin by her side, Erica no longer felt fear and confusion.

"Mrs. Strand," Erica stepped out from behind Larkin, "Are you worried that I'm gonna get back with Jacob again? To be honest, before I started dating Larkin, there might still be a chance for that. But when I realized that being with Jacob means dealing with someone as difficult as you, I gave up on that idea completely. I'm here to see Jacob today because you guys can't keep him on a leash, he's way too out of line. Relax, Larkin and I are married, and our wedding date is coming up. Me and Jacob, just like you wanted, we're done, forever"

With that, Erica turned to Jacob, "Now do you get it, why I chose Larkin over you?"

Jacob went as white as a sheet

"Let's go."

Erica didn't need his response.

Larkin's expression remained grim, he took one last glance at the Strand family, then walked away with Erica.

Rosalynn looked at Erica with guilt in her eyes.

Erica just smiled and shook her head at her.

Even though she got slapped, Erica was surprisingly in high spirits today.

All the way, Orval kept muttering, "Erica, just forget about Jacob. It's best if he gets infuriated. Look at his family, who cares about your good intentions?"

The elders of the Strand family heard everything loud and clear, and their expressions turned extremely unpleasant.

The Carter family might look like your average Joe, but they're generations of medical masters, never missing a generation. The young ones are all ace doctors. A lot of big shots go to the Carter family to treat their chronic illnesses.

Especially Larkin.

He may be an antique dealer, but all his companies are related to modern medicine.

If you really piss off the Carter family, you can't even imagine where and by whom you'd get tripped up.

So even though the Carter family appeared like an ordinary households, in reality, not many dare to cross the Carter family, domestic or abroad. Rosalynn and Wayne walked in the back, taking a glance at the Strand family

"Wayne... Graham Strand, Jacob's father wanted to say something

"You guys really crossed the line, Wayne said coldly, "Miss Erica's wedding is coming up, and you guys hurt her face. That's not right."

Everyone in the Strand family was stunned.

Everyone knew that Wayne had tried to kill Erica multiple times, and now he was defending her

"It was you, wasn't it?" Mrs. Strand's gaze fell on Rosalynn, 1 remember you and Erica were close..."

"Mrs. Strand, have you lost your mind?" Rosalynn cut her off impatiently, "How dare you point your finger at me?"

Mrs. Strand had only met Rosalynn twice, both times when Jacob was seriously injured.

Rosalynn was very polite and gentle.

Mrs. Strand even started to believe that Rosalynn was indeed such a pushover

"Jacob, I understand that your family is not happy with Erica, but bullying her to this extent is way out of line. I don't get it, why would you side with them? Erica had no one to turn to, she only had you before, but what did you do?"
