Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 383

Byron's words were left unfinished as Cora pushed him away and continued carving her artwork.

She knew what Byron was about to say.

In all of New York, he had eyes and ears everywhere, making it effortless for him to know anything.

"I'm not upset. Do whatever you want," Cora replied calmly.

However, in that split second, Byron recognized her displeasure.

It was only natural. Cora's closest relative had hired an assassin to kill her.

Byron hesitated momentarily and then walked behind Cora, embracing her once again.

In a hoarse voice, he declared, "You have me now. Don't be troubled by those unrelated people. After your rotation ends, we'll move to a different city. Those people won't be able to bother you anymore."

His words meant to console her, but they also seemed to be reassuring himself.

Cora smiled and turned around, affectionately resting her cheek against his chest. "Thank you," she whispered.

Cora was grateful that Byron knew things but didn't expose her to the vile people who disgusted her the most.

She also appreciated that he was willing to stand by her side when she was in a desperate situation, surrounded by difficulties.

Later that night, at the Yoris Mansion.

The family had just finished dinner and gathered in the living room, enjoying fruit after a meal and chatting.

"On Saturday, Madam Hansen will be celebrating her sixty-fifth birthday. The invitation cards have already been sent."

Arnold placed several invitation cards on the low table in the living room.

The bright color covers exuded a joyful atmosphere.

Arnold continued, "I heard many prominent figures from New York were invited. Almost every one of significance is on the guest list."

William looked puzzled.

"Wasn't Madam Hansen against extravagance and waste? Why would she invite so many people this time?"

"To introduce her daughter-in-law to the circle, of course, she needs to make it grand," Arnold replied with a knowing smile.

Jane understood the meaning behind his words but vehemently shook her head in protest.

She didn't want to be engaged to Harry.

Although Harry had decent qualities, he still couldn't compare to Byron.

Jane believed she was on par with Cora in every aspect, so why should she marry someone who couldn't match up to Byron?

To her surprise, William clearly understood her hint but chose to go along with Arnold's suggestion.

"Alright, I'll go talk to the Cross family tomorrow."

It was a timely decision to cut her losses. It was undoubtedly the best for Jane.

If Jane continued to push her agenda, her reputation would suffer, and prominent families in New York wouldn't consider her a suitable daughter-in-law.

Feeling overwhelmed by emotions and unable to accept the situation, Jane dropped the watermelon rind and rushed back to her room.

Sara quickly followed, calling after her, "Jane?"
