    Chapter 1192 Clingy Husband Who Just Got Married


    With a smirk, he insulted Beatrix, “Are you saying that your husband isn''t sexually attracted to you?


    Tsk, then you should really reflect on yourself.”


    Beatrix''s face twisted with anger.


    Other than Cooper, the rest of the people in that group were women. Even so, Cooper did not hesitate


    to be brutally straightforward with his words. Her frustration mounted like a wave crashing against the


    shore, more so when Cooper''s statements were technically correct.


    His wordsced with malice and contempt; Cooper did not allow Beatrix any opportunity to respond.


    Cutting like a knife into the depths of her heart, he said, “My wife is from a wealthy family, and even


    though they''ve fallen from grace, she still decided to marry me. Though I''m not the richest man on


    earth, I''m still quite loaded. You, on the other hand...”


    With a mocking expression, he curled his thin lips and uttered, “You''re neither pretty nor smart. Even


    your husband wasn''t originally yours to begin with. You snatched him from his ex-wife! It bemuses me.


    You have a cousin from the Gaudette family, but you fail to capitalize on that privilege. You could have


    chosen someone with a strong family background, and yet you settled for a useless guy.”


    Sally thought she had a sharp tongue, but inparison with Cooper, she was leagues behind.


    Sally nearly burst intoughter. Barely withholding the urge, she looked down and pretended to rub her


    eyes.


    Beatrix never thought that a man, especially one who looked so much like a gentleman, could have


    such a wicked tongue. A deep frown etched onto her face, and Beatrix was speechless.


    The other heiresses turned their attention onto her, giggling and snickering.


    “Please excuse us. We just married, so I''m quite clingy and will be bringing my wife with me.” Cooper


    grabbed Sally''s arm and left.


    After leaving the crowd, Sally asked, “Are you not afraid of the Gaudette family seeking revenge?”


    “What is there to be afraid of?” Cooper shrugged and nced at Sally. “We''re on the same boat now.


    Besides, I was protecting you.”


    Sally raised her head and stared at Cooper. Her cold expression softened into a hint of a smile, one


    that was radiant and natural.


    Cooper raised his eyebrows in confusion. “What are you smiling about?”


    “Nothing.”


    Normally, she was toozy to argue with anyone and would resolve everything using violence. Yet


    today, she discovered the joy of provoking a person with words. It was even more amusing when the


    subject of the tongueshing became so infuriated that steam came out of their ears.


    This was the first time someone tried to protect her in such a manner.


    Sally''s eyes darted toward the entrance, and she caught sight of a figure making its way in. She swiftly


    extricated Cooper''s hand from her waist. “I need to go to the restroom. Go talk to Mr. Zane in the


    meantime.”


    With that, she turned around and left.


    Beatrix was fuming angrily on the other side of the room after her encounter with Sally and Cooper.


    However, since it was Margaret''s birthday, Eurydice was busy helping her father set up connections


    with the guests. She was unable to spare a moment to entertain Beatrix.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Beatrix knew all too well that Eurydice would be none too pleased by her interruption.


    When Beatrix spotted her mother, her eyes lit up with excitement. She trotted in thetter''s direction


    and tugged Karolina''s hand. “Mom, did you get the gift?”


    “Of course I got it,” Karolina replied.


    Beatrix had arrived earlier with Eurydice and the rest of the group. On the other hand, Karolina was


    fashionablyte as she had to search for Margaret''s gift.


    Beatrix knew about the gift and grew excited. “It isn''t Mr. Jennings'' true intention to celebrate his


    mother''s birthday with this celebration. With this gift, Uncle Benedict....”


    “Mind your words!” Karolina interjected Beatrix and stared at her, displeased.


    Beatrix immediately realized that what she had said was out of ce. She pped herself on the


    cheeks and said apologetically, “Mom, I was bullied by Sally just now.”


    “The Loake family is gone. She has nothing to be arrogant about.” Karolina warned Beatrix, “It wasn''t


    easy for us to get an invitation here. Do not mess up. Why can''t you be more like Eurydice and learn to


    swallow your ego?”


    Beatrix nodded obediently. Jealousy was thest thing on her mind given her admiration for Eurydice,


    whom she regarded as practically her second mother.


    It was Eurydice who taught her how to bring down Charlotte and her family, even making it so that the


    person who killed Charlotte''s father was Charlotte''s own boyfriend''s uncle!


    Beatrix was eager to discover how Charlotte would react when the truth was revealed.


    As for Sally...


    Beatrix nced around the room but could not locate her.


    ;After tonight, Mr. Jennings will definitely stand on Uncle Benedict''s side. I will be able to make Sally


    pay for what she has done then!;
