From Forgotten Wife To Fierce Queen - Chapter 115: Chapter 115

Hearing Grayson call her by her name, Brittany couldn't help feeling disappointed. She had thought that since Dominick had already instructed his son to call her parents "grandpa" and "grandma," perhaps he would have Grayson call her "mom."
But on second thought, it also made sense. After all, they weren't married yet. He could start calling her "mom" after they got married. With that thought, she felt more at ease.
Dominick looked around the room. There were many people, but he didn't see Paisley anywhere. Disappointment filled his eyes.
This scene was immediately noticed by the Sullivan family, and they all felt a sudden tension. Things had been fine just a moment ago—why was he suddenly unhappy?
"Mr. Vanderbilt, please take a seat," Gregory quickly urged, trying to ease the situation.
He naturally offered the main seat to Dominick and was about to sit next to it, but seeing Grayson follow behind, he moved further back to give him room.
As soon as they sat down, Keith and Marianne confidently stepped forward, trying to get closer to Dominick.
"Hello, Mr. Vanderbilt, I'm Keith Jackman from the south of the city, and this is my wife," said Keith
"Hello, Mr. Vanderbilt," said Marianne.
Dominick looked at the couple, his brow furrowed slightly. He didn't know them.
At first, he thought they might be relatives of the Sullivan family, but now he was sure they weren't. So why did the Sullivan family invite them here today?
Seeing that Dominick didn't respond immediately, Keith quickly explained, "Oh, my son Baron is dating one of Gregory's daughters. We might be in-laws in the future." He hoped that mentioning this would gain Dominick's favor with the Jackman family.
Gregory watched them coldly, feeling a bit sarcastic. Just a moment ago, they were acting arrogant, looking down on their family. What happened to the talk about getting Paisley pregnant before marriage? Now, they're talking about being in-laws?
Gregory once again believed that inviting everyone today was a brilliant decision, benefiting them in multiple ways. Not only did they secure the Jackman family as a marriage ally, but they also made sure the Jackman family wouldn't underestimate the Vanderbilt family anymore.
The people from Brittany's film crew were also quietly shrinking into the background, not daring to make a sound. In the future, they wouldn't dare to target Brittany behind her back.
From now on, no one in Harrowfell would dare to look down on the Sullivan family. All of this was Brittany's doing.
Gregory looked at Brittany with gratitude and affection, patting her shoulder. Brittany understood her father's meaning. She lowered her head, blushing, while her heart surged with excitement.
That's right, the Sullivan family's glory could only come from her. As for Paisley, she would always be stuck in the dirt, living off her charity.
Dominick calmly looked at Keith and Marianne from the Jackman family, then turned to glance at Brittany, just as she lowered her head, her face flushed.
He thought that their son must be dating Paisley's younger sister. If he and Paisley ever reconciled, they would indeed become family.
With that thought, he looked at Keith and Marianne with a softer expression. "Hello."
Seeing the usually unreachable Dominick finally respond to them, Keith and Marianne both sighed in relief, and their resolve to marry Baron to Paisley became even firmer.
Although the woman had never been to school and had a bad temper, as long as they could catch her, they would become in-laws with the Vanderbilt family, and it would all be worth it. But, of course, that would mean they'd have to sacrifice Baron.
After raising their glasses to toast Dominick, Keith sent Baron another message. Since Dominick was nearby, Keith didn't want to keep checking his phone, so he just quickly sent a brief note. He reminded Baron to take the arranged meeting seriously.
In the small room next door, Baron was already getting impatient. When he saw his father had sent two messages reminding him to take the arranged meeting seriously, he lazily glanced at them and didn't think much of it.
What was there to take seriously? She was just some uneducated woman.
If she looked decent, he'd have some fun with her, and if she could give him a son, he'd marry her. If she was ugly, though, he'd just say goodbye, no son, no marriage. He wasn't going to sleep with an ugly woman.
Speaking of which, why hadn't that woman arrived yet? Letting him wait for so long—he'd make sure she regretted it when she showed up.
Just as Baron was thinking about how to humiliate the woman he was supposed to meet, the sound of a knock on the door came from outside. "Sir, there's a guest."
Baron lazily leaned back in his chair, narrowing his eyes, like a wild boar waiting for its prey to enter. But as soon as he saw who was entering, his eyes, which had been narrowed, suddenly widened in surprise.
The woman in front of him had fair skin, large bright eyes, and long lashes that fluttered up and down with every blink, like delicate feathers.
Her long, slightly wavy hair was casually tied at the back, with a few strands falling at the front and on the sides, framing her perfect face.
She had a tall figure, and though she wore loose clothes that weren't flashy, her cool and composed aura carried an undeniable sensuality and charm.
Baron was immediately mesmerized, his thick lips involuntarily parting, drool spilling from the corner of his mouth. 'Is she really the one? She's much prettier than that Brittany!' he thought.
At that moment, Baron felt like he had struck gold. Not only was she gorgeous, but she hadn't been to school. This meant she was not smart, and easy to manipulate.
Suddenly, Baron felt that, with such beauty, not having an education wasn't such a bad thing after all. And she was still so innocent. As he thought about this, the lecherous fire inside Baron began to uncontrollably stir.
Paisley followed the address and room number Gregory gave her to the designated location. Gregory had told her over the phone that someone was already waiting for her, and she found it odd—who could be waiting for her?
As soon as she stepped into the room, she saw a bloated pig sitting there. "Sorry, I think I might have entered the wrong room."
As soon as she saw that disgusting man, she had already guessed Gregory's purpose for inviting her today. A cold sneer appeared in her heart as she realized she had underestimated the disgusting nature of the Sullivan family.
Although she had expected Gregory to have some ulterior motive for inviting her to dinner, she had to admit that, deep down, she had still hoped for something different tonight.
But reality slapped her in the face. She shouldn't have expected anything nice. So this was Gregory's plan—to set her up with a disgusting, bloated man to help the Sullivan family's agenda.
Seeing the pretty girl about to leave, Baron quickly got up, unusually agile for his size, running over and shutting the door behind Paisley before she could escape.
