The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2255

I had not been to the Schumans' place for a long time, but nothing had changed here.

I heard Yvonne's shocked voice the moment I entered the living room. "What?! You want to marry Susan, and you want to hold a public wedding?!"

It looked like Tyler had gone ahead and told Yvonne about it. Even though I could not see Yvonne, I could still imagine the surprised expression on her face at this moment.

A moment later, I saw Susan and Tyler sitting side-by-side with Yvonne and Carlson facing them. It did not look like a family reunion but rather a confrontation.

There was a slight change in Susan's and Tyler's expressions when they saw me, and it was the same with Carlson and Yvonne. Their expressions also changed slightly when they saw me.

Stripping down the sense of repression that was exuded just now, Yvonne came toward me and pulled me to the sofa to take a seat. "Wanda, why haven't you come to visit us for so long? Is Theo not with you?" "No, he has some work at the company tonight." I shook my head and looked in Tyler and Susan's direction.

"Why didn't you bring the children? I wanted to see them," Carlson probed.

"That's right. Munchkin, Timothy, and Wendy. We've barely met our grandchildren."

Since they brought up the kids, they could not blame me for doing this.

I pretended to be indifferent but then glanced at Tyler and Susan. "Susan and Ty's son is probably closer to you guys."

The moment I said this, Yvonne's and Carlson's expressions abruptly changed, and Yvonne let go of my hand.

"Ty, Susan, why are you here tonight? Have you two reconciled?"

Tyler froze for a moment but then went along with me. "Yes, I want to hold a wedding."

"Good."

"But they don't agree." Tyler glanced at Carlson and Yvonne, his tone helpless.

Before I said anything, Yvonne said, "You must know, Wanda, that the Schumans are a well-known family in Whaldorf City. No good news will come from Tyler marrying Susan." It was still the same concern as before.

I held Yvonne's hand and slowly said, "If you say that, doesn't that mean it was a joke when Theo married me back then?"

"I was helpless then, and even my adoptive mother had passed away. The Grants are a famous family, and everyone in Salt City knows about Theo. He married me, a woman who had nothing. The Grants were also ridiculed for it for quite some time, but what about now? Are those people still running their mouths?"

Yvonne's face softened a little when she heard this. She patted my hand and said earnestly, "You're different. You come from a clean background, and they only laughed for a while. You're smart and capable. Theo has gotten more powerful with your help, and now you have your own company. Of course, no one would dare criticize you anymore."

"Yes, you're aware as well that strength is very important. Susan is stronger than me. With her, Tyler will also be even more powerful. Who can say that the Schumans aren't prosperous as long as Tyler's company is? And who won't envy Tyler for having such a virtuous wife?" I tried convincing Yvonne and could see some hesitation on her face.

However, Carlson spoke up in the next second. "We would have nothing to say if we were just part of the business world, but us Schumans are also part of the political world. Susan is good, but she comes from the slums. That's enough to make us a laughing stock!" Carlson was more particular about their reputation than Yvonne.

Seeing his righteous indignation, I pursed my lips...
