Chapter43
Erwina smiled slightly, “What did you even work hard for? Running around sucking up to the Schrader family, hoping they’d care about you and treat you well? Don’t think everyone is stupid and easy to fool. And the idiots you actually managed to fool are completely useless anyway.”
“What did you mean?”
“Was it because your mom was coming back, Megan, so you got anxious. lately?”
Megan’s face suddenly looked really gloomy.
Megan’s mom, Nora, was Ethan’s first love. Back then, they were supposed to get married.
But right before the wedding, something unexpected happened.
Nora suddenly ran off with a guy from another alien domain, but later she said herself that she was actually kidnapped.
The truth was unknown, but a few years later, when Nora came back, there was Megan.
Although I didn’t know why, Nora was found guilty by the Interstellar Tribunal and put in Interstellar Prison, then Ethan adopted Megan.
Nowadays, Nora was about to be set free.
Megan was so eager to get control of the Schrader Restaurant, everything was connected, and the more I thought about it, the weirder it seemed.
Megan gripped the menu tightly. “Erwina, you don’t have to bring up my mom. Let’s just see if you can get Commander Mullen to show up on your opening day. Your wedding with him, no matter how you look at it, was pretty unbelievable, right?”
“I married him, don’t I have to thank you? If you hadn’t meddled and stopped Wynfield, would I have married Commander Mullen?”
Megan’s eyes looked even darker.
When she talked about it, she got really upset. She felt like her leg was
broken for nothing!ERER
The atmosphere between the two people was really tense, and it turned out the vibe at the entrance of the Schrader Restaurant was kind of weird too.
Two aircraft were parked here, one had the Cowan family written on it, and the other one… was a military aircraft.
Wearing a dark blue uniform, with long legs in military boots, all looked really intimidating.
But this cold and cool Commander Mullen was holding a bunch of beautiful red roses.
And Wynfield also dressed up, and he happened to have a bunch of roses in his hand too–they were pink.
Victor said to Gustav through the headphones, “Master! Pink roses mean first love! This Wynfield was still trying to steal your girl!”
Erwina was Wynfield’s first love.
So this bunch of pink roses…

Gustav looked at Wynfield calmly, his eyes steady, but even like this, he still had a strong sense of intimidation.
Not to mention, there was also that invisible aura of menace that came
from going into battle so many times.
Wynfield felt weak in the legs, and his palms were all sweaty.
He said respectfully, “Hello, Commander Mullen.”
“What did you come here for?”
“I… I was here to see Megan.”
Hearing him say he was looking for Megan, the cold look on Gustav’s face eased a bit. He turned around, took his long strides, and just walked right
- in.
Wynfield held the bunch of roses tightly, and his fingers got cut by the short thorns.
Victor kept whispering in Gustav’s car, “I swear on Falcon’s main brain, this Wynfield
Victor kept whist definitely here for Mrs. Mullen! Good thing you got
here early, boss! Otherwise, this fence–sitter would’ve had a chance to show off in front of Mrs. Mullen!”
Gustav pressed his lips together a bit. He didn’t really take Wynfield as a serious opponent.
Back then, it was Wynfield who missed the wedding himself, and Erwina almost got randomly assigned to marry some guy.
Now Gustav thought the tricky thing was, how should he get Erwina to go home with him?
And at that moment, Megan was sneering and said, “Erwina, you know
Chapter43
what? Dad told me to marry Wyn, but I turned him down. Honestly, I never liked him anyway, and he’s just that kind of guy–if you act cute and ask him to do something, he never says no. But you know what? The person he really loves in his heart is still you. But you already married Commander Mullen, Erwina, doesn’t that make you feel bad?”
Erwina didn’t care at all about this bit of verbal attack from Megan.
She was just about to talk back when she saw two people walk in at the door one after another.
One was her legal husband, Commander Mullen.
And right behind Gustav was her ex–fiance, Wynfield.
Ha, things got lively now.
Megan had her back to the door, so she didn’t know someone came in. She smiled smugly and said, “What’s wrong, Erwina? Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you so upset you don’t even know what to say?”
Erwina gave Megan a pitying look but didn’t respond to her. Instead, she got up and walked over to Gustav.
