Chapter 615 Wedding?
After they were done, Constantine left the study first. Ten minutes later, Sandra finished tidying up and quietly slipped out.
Now, these two—one a future father-in-law, the other a future mother-in-law—shouldn't be dating, right? Sandra and Constantine knew this all too well. So, they tried to avoid Tyler and Barbara, the soon-to-be-married couple, as much as possible. Especially Barbara, who had lost her memory and was now just a simple girl. She mustn't find out.
"You mean cleaning the study? I saw it was pretty clean, so I came out after a few minutes and took a couple of laps around the small park. My body needs exercise!"
"But Mom, how did you get those bruises on your neck from just a walk?"
"It rained last night, and I slipped on some moss and fell."
"You fell? Really?"
"A fall is a fall, why don't you believe me!" Sandra snapped, looking impatient.
She thought of something else. "By the way, Barbara, I'm going to the bedroom to call Anthony. Bring me some medicine!"
"Okay!" Barbara lowered her gaze and headed towards the kitchen.
Sandra yawned and then went upstairs. She went to the bedroom, took out her phone, and dialed Anthony's number.
"Anthony, it's me, Sandra!"
Anthony's mockery came through, "Still remember to call me? I thought you forgot me!"
"Anthony, everything I'm doing is for our Johnson family!"
"Oh?" Anthony replied, sounding skeptical.
Sandra quickly explained, "I know we have no foundation now and has to rely on other wealthy families. I'm sure you understand this, or you wouldn't favor Ryder and his side! But Anthony, you need to think clearly, Ryder's last name is Clark, he won't be wholeheartedly for our Johnson family!"
"So?" Anthony's tone was dry.
Sandra felt her mouth go dry. This bastard Anthony didn't believe her!
"Anthony, I know you love me! I have a plan, listen to me..."
After explaining her plan, she took a deep breath. "Look, this way, we can definitely become a top family in Aurora City, and then going to the Capital City will be very likely! And I know this is your biggest wish!"
Sandra basically repeated what she had just told Constantine, with some embellishments, to Anthony. But after she finished speaking, there was no response from the other end.
"Anthony? Anthony, are you listening?"
"Anthony, give me an answer! But even if you don't choose the right side, as your daughter, I will still take good care of you!"
"Alright, stop shouting, I can hear you! I'm not deaf!" Anthony said impatiently.
Then he asked, "You mentioned the Jones family in the Capital City, is it that super wealthy family? The current head is a woman?"
"Yes, that's the one!"
"Well..." Anthony's tone showed obvious hesitation.
"So Anthony, do you agree with what I just said? This way, Aurora City and even the whole of Texas will be in the hands of the Young family, and our Johnson family will benefit too!"
"In the end, our Johnson family still has to rely on others to get by, right?"
"Huh?" Anthony's words left Sandra dumbfounded.
Anthony continued, "If the Young family marries Barbara's friend Anna, then I believe the Jones family will support the Young family. But do you know what the Jones family in the Capital City is like? People in the business world, especially those from wealthy families, are the most ungrateful and untrustworthy! Relying on others will ultimately ruin us!"
"But look at Ryder and Sarah, those two kids. Even though Grandma Johnson treated them poorly, I know Ryder and Sarah have grievances in their hearts, but have they ever complained? No! These are the people we should truly befriend!"
Hearing this, Sandra got a pretty good idea of where Anthony and the whole Johnson family stood.
But then, Anthony switched gears.
"However, Sandra, we can't ignore the possibility that the Jones family wants to control the entire economy of Aurora City and even Texas through the Young family. If that happens, our Johnson family will have to rely on the Young family's wealth and power to develop. This is a very poor strategy!"
"So now, we need to make two plans... Do you get what I'm saying?"
Listening to him, Sandra's eyes lit up. "Yes, Anthony, you're right! Let's hold Abigail and Barbara's weddings together!"
"What we discussed today stays between us."
"Okay, Anthony, take care of your health!" Sandra hung up the phone, her eyes full of excitement. Great, everything was going according to her plan!
Meanwhile, at the Johnson family villa, after hanging up Sandra's call, Anthony sighed deeply. Then he made a call to the Weaver family.
He suggested holding the weddings simultaneously. The Weaver family, especially Oliver's mother Patricia, who was already on good terms with the Young family, readily agreed.
After getting their consent, Anthony called a meeting with all the Johnson family members. Since Sarah acknowledged Anthony as her grandfather, she and Ryder were considered part of the Johnson family. But because they were busy and couldn't be there in person, they joined via video conference.
Half an hour later, the Johnson family gathered. Anthony presided over the meeting. The main topic was the marriages of Abigail and Oliver, and Barbara and Tyler!
That was, the Weaver family and the Young family, both top families in Aurora City, would marry Johnson family daughters! Two weddings, at the same time, in the same venue!
The grandeur of the weddings would be unprecedented in Aurora City!
Now, both the Young family and the Weaver family had agreed to hold the weddings simultaneously. Anthony's main purpose for the meeting was to inform the Johnson family.
Regarding this, Abigail felt the grander the wedding, the better, because this way, she would be officially part of the Weaver family!
Andy shrugged indifferently, thinking it was good for these people to get married, as the Johnson family would be his!
But Sarah voiced her objection from the video, "Grandpa, I don't agree with Barbara marrying Tyler! Barbara has lost her memory and knows nothing. Tyler is a jerk; we can't ruin Barbara's happiness for the rest of her life!"
Anthony looked troubled. "Sarah, Barbara herself has agreed to it."
"But..." Sarah bit her lip.
"Oh, Sarah, you just don't understand men!" Abigail jumped in. "In Houston and even Aurora City, Sarah, tell me, who is more beautiful than you? No one! So honestly, if I were a man, I'd naturally be attracted to your alluring looks, let alone someone like Mr. Young, a rich second-generation!"
Andy quickly agreed, "Exactly! What man wouldn't make a mistake in front of a beautiful woman? Sarah, you can't judge Tyler's entire character just because he once harassed you in Houston! Maybe he has changed now!"
