"Betty, that’s not right, Aunt Lily is like your mother, you can’t treat her !"
"Yes, Betty, Aunt Lily wants the best for you. You have to understand her good intentions."
Other members of the Arthur family also started to speak up for Lily Chaplin.
Julie Stewart didn’t want to say any more to these people and turned to Bache Arthur: "Dad, do you have anything else? If not, I’m going to leave."
Bache Arthur said: "Betty, we’ve already made an appointment with the Skinner family. Can you wait until after you’ve met Second Young Master Skinner before making any decisions?
If you really don’t like Second Young Master Skinner, Dad won’t force you, how about that?"
Julie Stewart sighed and nodded, "Alright, let’s meet him then."
After all, she was a mature woman, and although she had her own temper, she would be cautious in certain situations.
They waited for a while longer.
The sound of cars approaching came from outside.
"They’re here, the Skinner family is here!
Come on, everyone, let’s go greet them!"
Lily Chaplin quickly stood up and walked outside.
Bache Arthur and Julie Stewart followed as well.
When they arrived at the entrance.
A row of Rolls Royce cars approached.
The cars stopped at the entrance.
A dignified and elegant middle-aged couple got out of the car.
The middle-aged man was Camon Skinner, the current owner of Austin City’s Skinner family.
The middle-aged woman was Skye Ward, Camon Skinner’s wife.
Then, a tall and fit young man in a black casual shirt got out of the car, yawning.
This young man was Carlos Skinner, the second son of Camon Skinner.
"Welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Skinner, to our Arthur family!"
Lily Chaplin greeted them warmly.
"Nice to see you, Big Brother Skinner!"
Bache Arthur stretched out his hand and shook hands with Camon Skinner.
Camon Skinner said with a smile, "Mr. Arthur, perhaps our two families will become in-laws after today."
Bache Arthur laughed, "If we really become in-laws, it would be the best outcome."
After a few pleasantries, they all walked into the Manor Hall.
Once everyone was seated.
Camon Skinner said to Carlos Skinner, "Carlos, say hello to everyone."
Carlos Skinner, with his legs crossed and an indifferent expression, said, "Hello everyone, my name is Carlos Skinner."
With an enthusiastic expression on her face, Lily Chaplin praised, "Second Young Master Skinner is really talented, gentle, and elegant."
Carlos Skinner smirked, "Lady, it’s true that I’m talented.
But where do you see me as gentle and elegant?
If you’re not good at praising people, don’t do it. It just makes you look hypocritical!"
Lily Chaplin’s face suddenly turned red.
The other members of the Arthur family also felt awkward.
Camon Skinner scolded, "Carlos, what kind of language is that? Apologize to Aunt Chaplin right now!"
Bache Arthur quickly stepped in to mediate, "Big Brother Skinner, it’s fine, young people should have some personality, let it go."
Camon Skinner snorted, "This kid has been spoiled by me!"
Bache Arthur quickly said, "Betty, hurry up and say hello to Uncle Stanton and the rest."
Julie Stewart politely greeted, "Uncle Stanton, Aunt Weil, Second Young Master Skinner, hello, my name is Julie Stewart."
Camon Skinner looked Julie Stewart up and down and asked, "Mr. Arthur, is this your long-lost daughter?"
Skye Ward and Carlos Skinner also looked over.
Camon Skinner praised curiously: "This kid is already perfect in terms of appearance alone, and her temperament is even more appealing. I’m very satisfied!"
"Hmm, I’m very satisfied too. If she becomes my daughter-in-law, she’ll definitely become the envy of others!"
Miss Skye Ward also smiled and said, looking at Julie Stewart more and more fondly.
Carlos Skinner also looked at Julie Stewart up and down, and said with a grin, "You’re the best-looking and best-tempered among all the blind date partners I’ve had.
It’s a pity, though; I already have someone I like."
Julie Stewart chuckled lightly and said, "Well, I’m the same as you; I already have someone I like too."
"That couldn’t be better!"
Carlos Skinner suddenly felt delighted, "Miss Stewart, although I can’t marry you, we can still be friends!
You’re the only pleasant person in the entire Arthur Family!"
Julie Stewart said with a smile, "Second Young Master Skinner doesn’t have the usual arrogance of a wealthy family heir and isn’t caught up in trivial matters. It’s not bad to be friends with him."
Carlos Skinner glanced at Lily Chaplin and said, "Listen, this is what’s called praising someone!"
Lily Chaplin was so angry that her chest heaved, but she still tried her best to suppress her anger.
After all, the Skinner family was the wealthiest family in Austin City, even more powerful than the Arthur family. She didn’t dare offend them.
However, at this moment, the people of the Arthur and Skinner families were dumbfounded when they heard the conversation between the two.
How did this blind date end so quickly?
Camon Skinner said sternly, "Carlos, I will not agree to you being with that girl!
Anyway, your mother and I are very satisfied with Betty, and your marriage is settled!"
Miss Skye Ward said, "Carlos, just forget about that girl. Miss Betty is more suitable for you.
I think you might as well try dating her; who knows, maybe you’ll develop feelings for each other."
Bache Arthur also said to Julie Stewart, "Betty, I think Second Young Master Skinner is quite good, why don’t you try dating each other first?"
Julie Stewart and Carlos Skinner both spoke simultaneously.
Carlos Skinner said, "Dad, Mom, I will never give up on Little Tong. She is the only one I will marry in this life!
As for Miss Stewart, I appreciate her very much. I can be friends with her, but marriage is absolutely out of the question!
Since both Julie Stewart and I already have someone we like, do you really want to break up two people’s happiness for a little profit?"
Hearing Carlos Skinner’s words, Julie Stewart’s eyes were filled with admiration.
Originally, she thought Carlos Skinner was just a typical wastrel.
But to her surprise, Carlos Skinner had his own character and ideas.
Julie Stewart also said, "My thoughts are the same as Second Young Master Skinner. We can be friends, but we can’t marry."
The entire hall suddenly fell silent.
Both sides seemed at a loss, unsure of what to say.
However, at this moment.
A voice came from outside.
"Oh, everyone is here. Since everyone is here, then today’s matter is easy to handle!"
All the people in the hall turned their heads to look.
Only to see four young people walk in. It was Lionel Yeager, Lily Tisdale, Bardon Bard, and Prajna Bates.
Seeing Lionel Yeager, Julie Stewart was overjoyed and immediately got up and ran over.
"Mullen, how come you’re here?"
Julie Stewart asked with confusion.
As for Lily Chaplin, she shuddered all over, feeling increasingly uneasy in her heart.
Lionel Yeager laughed. "Sister Betty, didn’t I promise you yesterday that I would bring Aunt Grant before you today? I have to keep my word!"
As soon as these words came out.
All the people present exchanged glances with each other.
Sending Camilla Greiner to Julie Stewart?
Wasn’t Camilla Greiner a vegetative person who had been in a coma for fifteen years? How could she possibly be here?
