A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234 

“Do your best today, my good brother–in–law!” 

Beatrix knew what Claudette was plotting, of course. She hastily walked over 

to them and snatched Emmanuel’s attention away. 

When everyone heard her referring to Emmanuel as her brother–in–law, they 

were shocked. 

Elizabeth was surprised, too, as she said, “He’s your brother–in–law, Beatrix?” 

Emmanuel hastily explained, “No, it’s a misunderstanding. We’re bros, and she 

thinks it’s funny to call me her brother–in–law. I’m not married to her sister!” 

Beatrix smiled as she remained silent. Mackenzie is right–this guy is a fool! If 

he was not my brother–in–law, I wouldn’t have called him as such now, would 

I? He’s so dumb, but I have to say, he’s fun to play with as well. 

When Claudette saw that scene, she knew Emmanuel wouldn’t be able to 

help her out anymore. 

The boys standing before her were sons of wealthy families in Yeringham, 

and she had a faint impression of them. 

The tall and broad one was named Isaac Lane. His brother used to be 

Claudette’s classmate. 

Isaac had met Claudette before and had fallen in love with this gentle and 

reserved beauty at first sight. 

He even pursued her before, but she rejected him in a roundabout way by 

joking and saying that he was still a brat. 

Now that he was 20 years old, he was a brat no more. When he saw the 

woman wearing such bold clothing today, he swore that he would win the 

heart of the idol in his youth. 

Claudette knew the boy beside Isaac as well. His name was Jonathan 

Verkade, and they had met at the banquet before. 

Initially, he was aiming for Beatrix, but the latter always rejected him. Now 

that he saw Claudette exuding a more feminine aura while wearing slightly 

revealing clothes, he felt that Claudette should be easier to get than Beatrix. 

Hence, he decided to try his luck. 

Not only that, Jonathan always had this narcissistic view that he looked good, 

and he even secretly wondered if Claudette would want to do it with him. 

At the thought of sharing a bed with this woman who had a back as white as 

snow, he couldn’t help but feel a little excited. 

Sadly, the gap between expectation and reality was always suffocatingly 

huge. 

“Sorry, but I’m not interested in teaming up with you guys.” 

Claudette’s honest words instantly caused Jonathan to feel awkward. 

The looks and laughter coming from all sides made him want to disappear 

from the face of the earth. 

Oh, well. Life is always fair. I’m sure this is a signal from the gods that she’s not 

the one for me. With that thought in mind, Jonathan turned around and 

invited Beatrix instead. 

“Sorry, but I’m teaming up with my brother–in–law. We already made a 

promise,” Beatrix declined politely, then gripped Emmanuel’s arm tightly. 

Emmanuel was exasperated. We are in public right now. How can she 

behave so intimately around me?! He couldn’t help but feel as if he truly were 

her brother–in-law. 

The corners of Jonathan’s lips twitched. He realized that his life motto was 

wrong. Real life would make one suffer for a while first and continue to make 

them suffer until they finally got used to it. 

Before Jonathan could say anything, Elizabeth took her sister’s hand and 

walked up to Emmanuel, saying, “We’ve already agreed to form a team with 

the four of us.” 

The corners of Jonathan’s lips twitched even more violently. 

Isaac had an upset expression on his face as well. Where did this man come 

from? He has snatched away the three prettiest divas. What chances do we 

still have?! 

Still, Jonathan was an expert at flirting. He always went out and fooled 

around at night, so he knew a lot of tactics. He quickly smiled and said, “After 

the game of laser tag, Mr. Lane and I will treat everyone to a meal. So, I 

suggest we don’t break into so many small teams for laser tag; just two 

teams will do. Does anyone have any objections?” 

No one did. 

No one dared to, either. 

Everyone knew that Isaac wasn’t one to be messed with; after all, he was 

rumored to have connections among the higher–ups in Yeringham.
