“What’s the condition?” Jonathan’s brows scrunched together.

“You’re to divorce Josephine Smith!” Loretta stated coldly.

“Never!” Jonathan declined without the slightest hesitation.

Upon hearing that, Loretta uttered frostily, “Jonathan, you’ll be the only third-generation heir of the Goldstein family after you return to the fold! The blood of the Goldstein family flows in your veins, so a woman from a third-rate family is unworthy of being your wife!”

“Was this what you said when my mother married into the Goldstein family back then?” Jonathan sneered all of a sudden.

When I was young, I heard countless stories of how they made life difficult for Mom after she married into the Goldstein family back then. And now, they want to poke their noses into my affairs?

The instant his words fell, Loretta harrumphed. “That girl from the Smith family can’t hold a candle to your mother! No matter how poor Elizabeth’s background was, she was a superstar at the very least! But what about that Smith girl? What else does she have going for her other than her above-average looks?”

She seemed to harbor great prejudice against Josephine, for contempt shone distinctly in her eyes as she spoke of the latter. She then declared, “I’ve already arranged a marriage for you in Yaleview with the eldest daughter of the Zeller family. Marry her after you return!”

Hearing that, Jonathan frowned and questioned, “The Zeller family, one of the four prominent families in Yaleview?”

Loretta nodded, enunciating, “Yes! As long as you marry her, the Goldstein and Zeller families will be forming a strong union to achieve greater heights! Then, the Goldstein family will have the opportunity to be the true forerunner among the four prominent families in Yaleview!”
