Chapter 611
Eleanor felt a pang in her heart as she lowered her head. What kind of background could she have had
as an orphan?
Blake sneered when he saw her silence. Tve done my homework on your You’re an orphan. Even
though you’ve found your sister, she’s just a designer, how could she ever match up to my grandson?
True, if you compared their backgrounds, she couldn’t match up But, Even as a designer, my sister has
achieved remarkable success in her field”
He could belittle her background, but her sister was off limits
Blake clearly looked down on a mere designer, but he didn’t argue with Eleanor, simply stating “You
know that’s your sister’s achievement. It has nothing to do with you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis point being, her sister’s success didn’t reflect her own. Eleanor agreed with this. But he
misunderstood her She was just defending her sister..
Eleanor tried to explam, but Blake moved on from the first issue to the next, “Ms. Shultz, where did you
graduate from?”
This question hit her hard, darkening her eyes
Seeing her silence, Blake answered for her, “Didn’t even get into the University of A, just some regular
college. And my grandson got into a top school at a young age. You still think you’re good enough for
him?”
Eleanor’s fingers clenched tightly, as she faced Blake She was not intimidated by his aura but doubted
herself because of his questions…
Compared to her, Blake was calm, “Ms Shultz, women who have married into the Laurence family have
each come from wealthy families. Even if they’re not from wealthy families, they have impressive
educational backgrounds. But your background, is not even one of a regular family
I’m not looking down on ordinary families. If you work hard and achieve a high education, I’d accept it,
at least it guarantees good genes for the Laurence family. But you poor background, low education,
how can I agree to this marriage?”
Eleanor took a step back from his words, but she gathered her courage and declared her feelings for
Bernard Laurence, “Mr. Laurence, I know my background isn’t good, and I didn’t get into a good college
But, I will strive to improve myself and do everything I can to make myself good enough for him”
Blake always valued talent. He scoffed, “Ms. Shultz, success in academics isn’t achieved by effort
alone. If you were talented, it would have shown when you were in college. Why wait until later to
further your education?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEleanor looked glum Was it because she lacked talent that she didn’t get into a good college, or was it
because her heart condition worsened during the exam?
She couldn’t find the right answer anymore. Her past self was so focused on graduating and starting
work to support herself, she didn’t have the courage to go back and try again. Outsiders wouldn’t
understand these matters of her past. If she spoke about it, she’d probably get laughed at So Eleanor
didn’t bother explaining, just quietly looked at Mr. Laurence
“I understand your point, but I’m sorry, I won’t leave Bernard just like that.”
He once said, if she left him again, he wouldn’t be able to bear it And she, couldn’t lose him again
Seeing Eleanor still determined, a layer of frost formed on Mr. Laurence’s handsome face “Since you
won’t leave him, I’ll ask you the third question….
His cold and indifferent gaze moved from Eleanor’s face to her belly, “Ms. Shultz, I heard you can’t
have children, is that true?”
