The men in the information were all unattractive, with an average age of around forty, and most of them didn't even have proper jobs!
Joshua glared at Lillian in dissatisfaction. "There are even men here who are almost the same age as me! Lillian, how could you introduce Katherine to such old men!"
Lillian's expression stiffened. She had someone falsify the photos and information of those men in advance.
But she didn't expect that Katherine, who usually had no capabilities, would be able to find out the real information about those men this time!
Lillian quickly looked grieved and said, "Joshua, I don't know why things turned out this way. I carefully selected some men for Katherine. It must be the person who introduced them who provided false information!"
Katherine found it amusing. "Lillian, you didn't even verify the authenticity of the men's information, and yet you are so certain that they are all high-quality men? Is it because I'm not your biological daughter that you are not taking my marriage seriously? Dad, if I were to marry such old men, you would also feel ashamed, right?"
Lillian hurriedly tried to explain, "No... I..."
But Joshua didn't want to hear her explanation. He was extremely disappointed and threw the information at Lillian's face.
"That's enough! You don't have to handle Katherine's marriage anymore! I will freeze your credit card this month, so don't go out and spend money recklessly. Stay at home and reflect on your actions!"
Lillian's face turned pale. "Joshua, you have misunderstood me."
Joshua ignored her and looked at Katherine with some guilt. "Katherine, you must have been through a lot meeting all those old men recently. You don't have to go on blind dates anymore."
Katherine smiled. "Thank you, Dad."
After Joshua went upstairs, Lillian's expression turned fierce, and she glared at Katherine with malice!
Katherine felt Lillian's angry gaze but calmly said, "Lillian, I forgot to tell you that I thought the high-quality men you personally chose would make great sons-in-law for you. So, I gave them Sherry's private number, hoping that Sherry could have a happy life with them!" Sherry Galatea is her stepsister.
Lillian was furious and gritted her teeth. "What? How dare you!"
‘Sherry is a popular celebrity. Those bad men don't deserve to call Sherry!’ Lillian pondered.
Katherine had no interest in Lillian anymore and yawned as she went upstairs to sleep.
Lillian muttered a curse at Katherine under her breath and then went back to her room to persuade Joshua not to freeze her credit card. Suddenly, the doorbell rang!
Who could it be at this late hour?
She opened the door and saw a man in a suit, followed by a row of black men carrying many things.
With so many strangers suddenly showing up in the middle of the night, Lillian couldn't help but be cautious. "Who are you looking for?"
Leander said, "Mrs. Galatea, hello, we are here on Mr. Melville's orders to deliver wedding presents to Ms. Galatea!"
"Wedding presents? And who is Mr. Melville?"
"Mr. Melville's full name is Alexander Melville."
The name made Lillian's eyes widen. After all, Alexander was quite famous.
"Alexander?! Are you talking about Alexander from the first family, the Melville family?"
Leander replied, "Yes."
Lillian asked, "Are you saying that Mr. Melville has fallen for my daughter?"
Leander's expression was complex, and he hesitated for a second before saying, "You... could understand it that way."
Lillian considered her daughter Sherry to be a popular female star, beautiful and talented, so it was normal for a wealthy man to be interested in her.
But this pursuer's background was incredibly powerful, and he had come to her with so many wedding presents. It was all too sudden!
Seeing that Lillian had been silent for a while, Leander asked, "Does Mrs. Galatea disagree with the marriage to Mr. Melville?"
Lillian snapped out of her thoughts and quickly shook her head. "No, no, no. It's just that my daughter is not at home right now, and this is a big deal. I think we should wait for her to come back..."
Leander interrupted, "Mrs. Galatea, your daughter has already accepted the engagement ring from Mr. Melville. She has agreed to marry him. You can accept the wedding presents that Mr. Melville has sent to her."
Lillian was astonished. "Sherry has already accepted Alexander's ring, so does that mean they have been in a relationship for a long time? Sherry had such a great boyfriend, and she didn't tell us!"
Lillian didn't dare to neglect her esteemed guests and quickly invited Leander into the living room.
Leander didn't enter but gestured for his subordinates to bring in the gifts.
"In three days, Mr. Melville will personally come to marry Ms. Galatea."
Lillian was once again taken aback. "Ah? In three days? Is that too rushed?"
Leander said, "Mrs. Galatea, please rest assured. Mr. Melville has already made all the preparations for the wedding. It will be a grand event."
‘A grand wedding?! It seemed that Alexander really loved Sherry!’ Lillian was excited and thought, ‘Once Sherry marries into the Melville family, I will be Alexander's mother-in-law. I will have a higher status and more wealth. Everyone will respect me in the future!’
With these thoughts, Lillian felt overjoyed.
"Alright! We will also prepare for my daughter's wedding in three days!"
Leander nodded and bid farewell, "Alright, goodbye."
Upon hearing the voices, Joshua came out again. "Who is here? And what are all these?"
Lillian joyfully touched the valuable gifts, her heart trembling with excitement.
"Joshua! Something big has happened! The young master Alexander of the Melville family is going to marry Sherry. These are the wedding presents that the Melville family has sent for Sherry, all precious items!"
Joshua was taken aback. "What? Alexander? You mean Alexander, the CEO of the Melville Group who just returned to the country recently?"
Lillian nodded frantically. "Yes, him! It's him!"
Joshua placed a hand on his chest, afraid that his heart might stop due to the excitement.
"My goodness! I never expected that Sherry would capture Mr. Melville's favor!"
Lillian couldn't hide her pride. "After all, Sherry is my daughter!"
"Lillian, you have given birth to a promising daughter!"
"Hmph, now you're praising me. Just a moment ago, you said you would freeze my credit card!"
"Well, I was angry earlier. Katherine is not your biological daughter, but you can't let her go on blind dates with much older men!"
"I didn't mean it! Katherine grew up in the countryside; she has a wild personality and a bad temper. I just thought that older men might be more tolerant of her. I didn't expect the matchmaker to lie about the information!"
"Lillian, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you."
Lillian easily appeased Joshua, feeling triumphant.
She believed that Katherine was still too young and no match for her!
However, Sherry was about to marry into the Melville family, and they would have a better life together in the future!
The next morning, Lillian called her star daughter Sherry and asked her to come home immediately.
As soon as Sherry entered the house, she complained unhappily, "Mom, why did you call me back in such a hurry? I still have a shoot in the afternoon!"
"Of course, it's for your marriage with the young master of the Melville family!"
"Marriage? What do you mean? I don't know the young master of the Melville family!"
Seeing Sherry's completely unaware expression, Lillian became nervous and quickly told her about the visit last night and the wedding presents.
"Sherry, how can you not know Mr. Melville? You have already accepted the engagement ring from him!"
