Chapter one hundred seven: "A Point"

My heart dropped and my eyes widened in shock
Is this a common marriage due to business? I've heard that it's normal for rich people with businesses to do it so their business would expand

But come on, this is not old style way of expanding business here

Harold sets down a pen and a piece of paper that looks like a contract
These people are thick-skinned

Theo eyes the contract that was given to him by Harold while Bianca eagerly waits at her father's side like things are starting to go her way. Sophia narrowed her eyes at the paper Theo now holds in his hands and read it thoroughly

I could feel Cloud's pulse go fast when we held hands since our wrists are near too. Bianca gave me a dirty look once she saw our hands were intertwined together

"Aren't you guys a bit too touchy?" Bianca asked us out loud while pointing her long nail at us with judging eyes

"My son and my future daughter-in-law are allowed to be touchy and loving, I don't see nothing wrong with it"

Bianca turned up her nose at Sophia "It will be a problem if he becomes my fiancè"
It would be very funny to know that Theo was watching Bianca's stinky attitude directed toward his wife

I furrowed my brows "Bianca this is getting ridiculous, you're wasting time here"

She scoffed at me "No Penelope, you're wasting time here, what's the point of being all lovey-dovey with Cloud? It's not like you guys are gonna end up together forever"

Sophia sets her hand down on Theo's shoulder "Honey I don't think this is a good idea-" "SHUT UP BITCH, NOBODY NEEDS YOUR STUPID OPINION!!" Bianca yelled at her because Sophia was starting to get annoyed that she is ruining her plans

I gasped in shock "Bianca why are you doing this?"

She raised a brow and crossed her legs "Easy, I want to get married to Cloud. I don't think it's that hard to get your stupid little brain around"

My left eye twitched

"Aww, did I strike a sensitive nerve? Well you should've known if you were unaware of rumors about you being stupid back then" she started insulting me in a lot of ways while her father laughs a little along with her
I didn't seem scared anymore maybe the me back then would've started crying but hearing Bianca tell me I'm stupid right now sounds like an ant waiting to be squished

I just finished graduating from college and hearing her say that as a person who didn't manage to graduate due to poor grades is astounding enough as it is

Not only she was chasing Cloud for his body and face, but she was also chasing his family's money that could give her a filthy rich future without working hard for it

Cloud didn't decide to let his anger get the best of him, mischief sparkled in his eyes before he started hugging me sideways right in front of them. Ava chuckled quietly at us while the few maids giggled behind her

This made Bianca even more furious that she was turning red from jealousy "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?!"

Cloud ignored her then rested his chin on my shoulder "Do you hear something?"

A smile formed on my lips as I shook my head while playing along with his mischief "No, I think it's some fly"

Harold loves his daughter but he spoiled her rotten which was bad too, which means he is also not a good father "Boy I suggest you stop that" he spoke in an authoritative tone
