Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1516 Just A Deal

Yet, to Gabriella’s surprise, Edmund responded, “Is there a problem? You’re all relying on the Zander family’s money, so what’s wrong with her being the head of the household? It’s already good that she’s letting you enjoy your stay here.”

He’s not holding me accountable for that? In fact, he agrees that they’re the leech?

Meanwhile, Gabriella was livid after hearing Edmund’s response.

“We’re the one living off the Zander family’s money? Are you not working? Edmund, are you even a man? You’re one of the Coopers, so how can you shamelessly say such things?”

“Why should I be ashamed? I married her because of the Coopers, didn’t I?” he nonchalantly stated.

Immediately, Gabriella’s face turned red, utterly furious. At the same time, Tillie stiffened when she heard that.

She had mixed feelings as she stared at the man downstairs.

It’s not like he’s doing any better. For the Cooper family, he has come to the Zander family to propose to me even though he doesn’t like me; even though he has someone he loves, he still has to marry someone he doesn’t at all. That’s tough, isn’t it? That’s why there’s nothing wrong with what he says now.

Eventually, Gabriella slinked away, but Tillie continued to quietly stand there and watch the man walk up the stairs.

It seemed like he did not expect her to stand there as he froze when their eyes met. This is the first time he properly looked at me, Tillie thought to herself.
