Married at First Sight Chapter 1640

Chapter 1640
Elisa had feelings for Remy. As she mentioned, she was not in a hurry to agree to date him because she wanted to experience being pursued and cherished.
Elisa smiled and said, “Mr. Reading might not even fancy me. This is all my mom’s doing. If I don’t cooperate, her efforts will be futile. I can still choose who I love.”
Andrew was Zachary’s cousin. Although she had never interacted with him before, he likely knew about her past obsession with Zachary.
Even though she had moved on and let go of her feelings for Zachary, could Andrew truly be indifferent?
Her mother was wasting her efforts; she wouldn’t cooperate, and Andrew wouldn’t fall for it. Elisa’s words were soothing, easing Remy’s mind.
He considered himself fortunate for having targeted Elisa early and approaching her intentionally. He had made a strong first impression, secured the best position, and developed feelings for her.
Had he delayed his move, he likely wouldn’t have been able to compete with Andrew.
Mrs. Stone arrived shortly after.
“Mrs. Stone.”
Upon seeing her enter, Remy immediately stood up to greet her, a wide smile on his handsome face.
Mrs. Stone had always thought of him as gentle and well-mannered since he always smiled when she saw him. However, at that moment, his smile made him seem like a cunning fox.
Still, Mrs. Stone never believed Remy to be truly kind-hearted.
Being appointed by Ben to manage FC & Co.’s branch in Wiltspoon, where he expanded operations and increased the headquarters’ investment, proved that Remy was a formidable man.
He was not evil, but he was not as kind-hearted as many imagined.
How could people…

In the business world, particularly among those who have achieved success, it’s common to find some ruthless tactics being employed.

“Mm.”

Mrs. Stone may not have been fond of Remy, but she still maintained her manners and responded with a hum to his greeting.

After settling in, she addressed her daughter, who was about to sit down. “Elisa, Mr. Reading will be here soon. Please go to the hotel entrance and wait for him. He seldom visits our hotel, and I’m concerned he might struggle to find it.”

“I’ll go get Mr. Reading,” Remy offered.

Mrs. Stone replied coolly, “Please sit down, Mr. Johnson. Mr. Reading is my guest, and it is my family’s responsibility to welcome him. There’s no need to trouble you with that.”

Her implication was clear: this was a matter for the Stone family, and Remy, as an outsider, should not involve himself.

Reluctantly, Elisa said, “I’ll wait for Mr. Reading outside the hotel, Mom.”

Since the Readings and the Yorks were connected by marriage, they typically chose to patronize Wiltspoon Hotel rather than its rival. Mrs. Stone used this connection to justify Elisa waiting for Andrew.

After exchanging a wink with Remy, Elisa went outside to await Andrew.

Once Elisa had left, Mrs. Stone turned to Remy and stated, “Mr. Johnson, I trust you’re aware of my family’s stance. Continuing to pursue this is futile. I disapprove of this relationship, and my decision is final. There are plenty of other options out there. Why are you so determined to pursue Elisa?”

“There are many wonderful women in Annenburg and Wiltspoon. If you pay attention, you’ll see that some may be better suited for you than Elisa.”

“I’ve indulged her since childhood. She’s headstrong, reckless, and quick-tempered. She’ll rebel if things don’t go her way. I truly believe she isn’t right for you, Mr. Johnson.”
