Chapter 825: Chapter 825: I Heard You’re Dating Baron
Enna Clark wanted the MOCHA, while Enna Clark wanted the Blue Mountain.
The Mocha is a bit more bitter, whereas the Blue Mountain is relatively higher in sweetness.
Enna Clark took a sip of her Mocha, and with such a bitter coffee, her expression didn’t change at all, as if she really liked the taste. She looked up, staring at Enna Clark with interest.
Enna Clark felt uncomfortable under her gaze and also took a sip of coffee, waiting for her to speak.
As expected, Enna Clark didn’t keep her waiting long, “I heard you and Baron are dating?”
“Yes, we’re planning to get married.”
Enna Clark was taken aback by her forthrightness for a moment, but her beautiful eyes curved in the next instant, and her fingers began tapping on the table. The innate superiority of the Lawrence family was suddenly visible, “Do you know Emily?”
“Are you talking about Ms. Goldsmith?” Enna Clark certainly knew; after all, Baron Lawrence almost got engaged to Emily Goldsmith.
“That’s her.” Enna Clark didn’t beat around the bush, “Baron and Emily were close to getting engaged a year ago, but then Baron ran off, and the engagement fell through. He made a big mess back then, and the Old Master was so angry he nearly dragged him back to lock him up. But Emily stepped forward and acted as a mediator, which prevented our families from falling out.”
Enna Clark didn’t know there was so much to the story, so she waited quietly for Enna Clark to continue.
A flicker of admiration crossed Enna Clark’s eyes as she went on, “Let me put it this way for you, the current relationship between the Lawrence family and the Goldsmith family is like two people walking on a cliff, and the only thing connecting them is the rope in the middle. If that rope breaks, the consequences are unimaginable.”
Enna Clark looked at her and told her bluntly, “Emily is that rope.”
“I’ve already discussed this with him once, and he is adamant about making you a promise,” Enna Clark said without concealment, “but the pressure he needs to bear by making you this promise is beyond your imagination. The Old Master is extremely angry. I’m just the one who came first. If I can’t handle it, the Old Master will come. Do you understand what I mean?”
Enna Clark looked at her with clear eyes, and to Enna Clark’s surprise, she responded, “Actually, I don’t understand.”
Enna Clark didn’t expect such a direct response and a smile spread across her face, making her more attractive, “Pfft, alright, I think I haven’t made myself clear enough. What I mean is, knowing what I have told you, I wonder how you feel about it.”
“I want to be with Baron Lawrence,” Enna Clark said without a second’s hesitation, meeting her smile that was full of both humor and an oppressive gaze.
“Pssh,” Enna Clark looked at her sharply, “Forgive my bluntness, Ms. Clark. Under these circumstances, aren’t you supposed to tell me how difficult it is for you, that you also don’t know, and then seriously consider what I just said? Normally, you would think about my brother and take the initiative to back out, wouldn’t you?”
Her words were particularly sharp.
They could almost be described as impolite.
Yet Enna Clark didn’t back down at all, copying her manner, she smiled and shrugged, “Ms. Lawrence also said that’s the normal situation. Baron Lawrence has never been just anybody, so he doesn’t fall within the normal circumstances. Likewise, I can’t provide Ms. Lawrence with a typical answer to the normal question.”
Enna Clark told her about Emily Goldsmith, and prior to that, she indeed didn’t know that marrying Baron Lawrence would mean facing all this pressure, nor did she realize that the relationship between the two families had become so delicate. She thought that the engagement issue from a year and a half ago had already passed.
