Transmigrated as the Villain Boss's Precious Darling
Chapter 638: Firmly DisagreeGoldie Thorne was a bit flustered, unsure why the beauty was suddenly unhappy. A complete novice when it came to romance, he had no idea how to placate a woman. He reached for another milk candy, figuring that since his little niece liked sweets, all women must be the same.
"Uncle, I want a candy," Tang Xiao’nan cried out.
"Get it yourself."
Goldie Thorne didn’t even turn his head, his mind completely focused on the beauty. He paid no mind to his niece. Tang Xiao’nan pouted in anger. ’Scumbag!’
Byron Thorne brought his pipe down on him. "Acting like some big shot, are you? Xiao’nan asks you to unwrap a candy for her and you won’t even do that? I’ll break your hands!"
Phoebe Huxley chimed in resentfully, "Our Goldie is putting on airs now, is he? Guess we won’t be able to boss him around anymore!"
Goldie Thorne quickly forced a smile. "What are you talking about, Sister-in-law? I’ll unwrap it for Xiao’nan. I’ll do it right now!"
Beatrice felt bitter and angry. She was now even more certain that the Thorne family disliked her. She was used to being flattered all the time, so this sudden cold shoulder made her displeasure show on her face. She sulked, her face grim, without saying a word. ’They’re just a rural family. So what if they have a bit of money? It’s nothing special. And they have the nerve to put on airs in front of me.’
’Hmph. I’m not falling for this act.’
’After we’re married, I’ll definitely have to teach that fat little girl some manners. You can tell just by looking at her that she’s a wild brat with no upbringing, making a fuss even with guests around. And the Thorne family adults are just as bad. The child has no manners and they don’t say a word; they even indulge her. The fish rots from the head down.’
Beatrice never considered that she might not be able to marry into the Thorne family. Even if the elders didn’t like her, it was fine. She was marrying Goldie Thorne, and as long as he liked her, that was all that mattered. She had that foolish man completely mesmerized; there was no way he’d disagree.
The bizarrely self-confident Beatrice had no idea that while Goldie Thorne might be a scoundrel, he was also a filial son. His parents were still quite important to him.
Goldie Thorne finished unwrapping the milk candy and fed it to Tang Xiao’nan. He couldn’t resist the urge to pinch her nose. ’My niece is usually so well-behaved. I don’t know what’s gotten into her today. And my dad and sister-in-law’s attitudes are so strange, too.’
Raina and the matchmaker came back inside. Beatrice looked inquiringly at the matchmaker, wanting to know the result of their talk. The matchmaker shook her head slightly. A flare of anger shot through Beatrice, and her expression turned even uglier. This only made Raina dislike her more. ’Even without my granddaughter’s dream, I would never agree to this, seeing that face. She has such a terrible temper. If we brought her into the family, would we ever have a day of peace?’
"Thank you for coming today."
Raina said a few polite words, and the matchmaker understood it was time to leave. She pulled Beatrice up to say their goodbyes. Goldie Thorne eagerly offered, "I’ll walk you out."
Byron Thorne kicked him so hard Goldie felt like his leg was about to break. Then Raina shot him a fierce glare. He understood then. His parents were not satisfied with Beatrice. His excitement faded a bit, but he didn’t lose heart. ’I just have to work on convincing Mom and Dad. I think Beatrice is great. She’s pretty, has a job... she’s exactly my type.’
The matchmaker looked a bit awkward. The Thorne family wasn’t even making basic pleasantries anymore, which showed they were extremely dissatisfied with Beatrice. This match was a bust. It was time to find the next candidate.
After Beatrice and the matchmaker left, Goldie Thorne said unhappily, "You’re the ones who picked her. I think she’s great, but now you’re going back on your word. Are you messing with me?!"
"You can marry anyone you want, just not this Beatrice. I’ll arrange for you to meet the other two."
Raina decided to immediately arrange meetings with the other two young women. Although they weren’t as beautiful as Beatrice, you can’t live on good looks alone. When choosing a wife, you had to pick someone capable and good at managing a household. Marrying a little vixen would only bring misfortune to the family.
