Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 566 - 440: Stop Overthinking, I’ll Marry Her

Chapter 566: Chapter 440: Stop Overthinking, I’ll Marry Her

If you kill her, do it here, just kill her...

"Want me dead? Don’t hesitate, just like that night, do whatever you want, really don’t hesitate."

Chu Jiao seemed to read Eric’s mind, her breath blowing onto Eric’s chin,

"But don’t take me for a fool, don’t think I don’t know what people like you with money, power, and influence are afraid of... if something happens to me, public opinion will point directly at you. Eric, believe me, that’s not something you can handle."

How could Eric not guess? Since this woman dared to step into the Windsor’s royal gates, she must have come fully prepared.

To make a grandmother, who always regarded lineage above all else, accept an Asian granddaughter-in-law, huh...

In front of the Windsor family, of course, Chu Jiao wouldn’t truthfully admit she was forced by him, which led to the child.

Instead, she held that ring, tears in her eyes, saying how deeply Eric loved her, how he only wanted her, how she felt unworthy of him, and mentioned over the years, she had rejected Eric countless times, even at the cost of marriage.

She just didn’t expect that after her divorce, Eric still wouldn’t give up on her.

Everything left her conflicted and confused until the appearance of this child, making her decide to be brave for Eric, for their relationship.

Chu Jiao spoke sincerely, being an outstanding interpreter, her fluent and authentic English made the Windsor family view her differently.

Chu Jiao didn’t force the Windsor family, her words were earnest, plus she wore Eric’s ring on her hand.

Eric’s grandmother adored this grandson so much that when she saw the ring, she understood the deep affection her grandson had for this woman.

That day, Chu Jiao was invited to stay for dinner with the family.

The Windsor family, taking advantage of this time, had already thoroughly investigated Chu Jiao’s background and experiences.

It had to be said, aside from the one mistake concerning Yin Shixiu, which left her embarrassed for a while, Chu Jiao was a perfect Asian woman in every way the Windsor family could find.

And during a dinner, discussing politics, the current situation, and even some other social phenomena, Chu Jiao had her own unique insights.

Not only that, Chu Jiao had a wide range of interests, and for over thirty years, she had never stopped learning, never stopped enriching herself.

Even though she had experienced a failed marriage, this did not diminish her charm as an exceptional and wise woman in the slightest.

After understanding as much as possible about this woman, Windsor told Eric that his grandmother agreed to him marrying an Asian woman.

Ha...

Heaven knows how excited Eric was then!

Eric himself didn’t expect to be so excited, so excited that it took him a long time to think to ask, "Why did grandmother bring this matter up suddenly..."

"What are you pretending for? Your woman has already been to the house, bringing your child."

Eric was no fool; the royal family had its own laws, dignity, and traditions.

He didn’t ask on the spot, but inquired afterwards from a cousin he was close with. After learning the ins and outs, her words and every act took Eric by surprise.

He knew...

How serious a mistake his impulsive moment had caused!

Eric’s fair skin flushed red.

In his lifetime, he had never been taken advantage of by anyone or been manipulated like this.

Only one Chu Jiao, years ago, it was Chu Jiao, years later... still Chu Jiao.

"You wouldn’t, wouldn’t ruin yourself for me. Likewise, you wouldn’t, for that little girl, give up the name Windsor."

Eric’s heart trembled...

That little girl... named Qin Hui, at this moment, thinking of this name made his heart ache.

Chu Jiao saw through this man’s thoughts completely.

"Back then, why I wasn’t interested in you... because in my eyes, except for having the surname Windsor, you were no different from other vulgar men."

He and Arthur... were worlds apart.

Chu Jiao knew this, one she couldn’t even seduce, the other still yearned for what he hadn’t gotten even after his heart already belonged elsewhere.

What she wanted was a man like Yin Shixiu, a man who, in this life, would only have feelings for one woman.

Chu Jiao had to admit...

When she checked herself at the hotel and learned Yin Shixiu indeed left quickly that night, she had mixed feelings, not just disappointment and pain, but also some relief...

Relief that Yin Shixiu held onto the baseline of a husband.

Held onto the baseline of a truly loyal man.

How wonderful, at least all these years, the man she hesitated to remove from her heart was indeed worthy of respect and pursuit by women...

After all, if she truly got him, that would be the most perfect.

No one would know, and no one would understand, the complex emotions and thoughts in her heart.

Things reached this point, and it was her mistake. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Things wouldn’t stop here, and it was Eric’s mistake.

"This lifetime, we will just keep resenting each other until death."

Eric took a defeated step back, his heart sinking.

His head buzzed, unable to think for a moment.

This was Chu Jiao’s resolve.

————

The two left Chu Jiao’s room and went downstairs.

By the community greenery, two men in coats, looking very distinguished, were sitting side by side.

Eric smoked hard.

The words Chu Jiao had said kept replaying in his ears.

Chu Jiao’s willingness to break rather than bend shocked Yin Shixiu.

The woman who was extraordinarily strong-willed in her youth, after so many years... her strength hadn’t changed, but worsened.

"That day, I shouldn’t have called you."

"It was me who couldn’t resist temptation, who became greedy, what does that have to do with you?"

Eric sighed, looking up at the sky, it was pitch black,

"Ah, so hungry..."

"Want to grab something to eat?"

"No, I’ll just stay hungry..."

Every word Eric spoke conveyed his deep fatigue and frustration within.

Yin Shixiu couldn’t offer comforting words; he wasn’t someone who could comfort others...

Besides, when counting the causes, it started with him.

If Eric really messed up his life because of this...

"I know what you’re thinking, Arthur..."

"..."

"Stop thinking about it. I’ll marry her."

Eric said,

"She was right; I wouldn’t abandon the Windsor surname for Xiao Hui, and the Windsor family wouldn’t want a scandal spreading all over the United Kingdom and even the world in the dead of winter."

"..."

"I always say I envy you, you don’t take it seriously, but it’s true, I really envy, really envy... but I can only envy."

"..."

"When we were young and played together, I was affectionate, you were indifferent, years passed, I have become less indifferent, but you have become incredibly passionate."

"I can’t achieve your passionate devotion, so I can’t have a marriage like you and Xiao Meng..."

"This is fine, Cherry and I, love and killing, oh No, no love, hahaha..."

Yin Shixiu just listened without speaking again. Eric laughed, but he heard the sound of crying.

Who is right? Who is wrong?

It’s impossible to tell.

Two days later, almost all the major media outlets in London had the same headline—

"China’s No. 1 Beauty Translator Cherry Chu Engaged to Eric Windsor."

What a sensational piece of news this was, one can imagine.

For some people, how despairing and suffocating such news was...

Qin Hui was dumbfounded, but... it was as if she had expected it all along.

Calmly, she turned off her phone and continued eating breakfast.

Meanwhile, Su Xiaomeng, also eating breakfast, felt her heart pounding when she saw the news!

What... happened?

Claire next to her was so excited she almost cried!

"Ma’am! Look, I told you there must be a misunderstanding, sir would never do something that would let you down!"

"..."

Su Xiaomeng pressed her lips, her heart in chaos at the moment.

She felt terrified, any truth would be frightening to her.

"Ding..."

It was just someone pressing the doorbell, but Su Xiaomeng was startled, her hand shook, and the chopsticks fell.

Claire stood up to open the door, Su Xiaomeng’s gaze followed Claire...

She had a premonition that the person coming was—

"Sir! You’ve finally come!"

"Dad?"

"Dad!"

Crash! Shuangshuang and Huang Huang excitedly climbed out directly from the small table of their children’s chairs!

The bowls and chopsticks were instantly all in disarray.
