C6 Fated Matchmaking!(2)

Indeed, she was an orphan who had been raised by her uncle and aunt.

Although she wasn't willing to be an orphan, most families would not marry a girl who had lost both her parents. They felt that such a girl would bring misfortune to them.

She had talked to her boyfriend before, but in the end, none of them had been able to marry her.

The failure of her relationships had made her too lazy to pursue love. She could only accept Shilo's blind date.

Mercer was not the first person who had been introduced to her. The few people who had heard that she was an orphan had left after hearing about her. Only Mercer had taken a liking to her.

Furthermore, Mercer's mother was a tough person. She didn't believe that her daughter-in-law would harm her, so she didn't try to stop Mercer from marrying Shilo.

As such, the two of them had decided to get married just like that.

Shilo had been planning to get married three months later, but she had not expected that Mercer would be arrested two days ago.

Shilo had no feelings for Mercer, but she felt that her aunt had been very tired about this matter. She was not in the mood to look for a boyfriend, and she didn't mind Shilo either. She just wanted to spend the rest of her life like this.

However, she had seen Mercer come out of the room naked that day. There were traces of sex on his body, and she had thought that he was disgusting.

She had been filled with disgust towards him ever since she had returned home. Furthermore, Mercer had been too lazy to explain to her. Shilo had decided that she would not get married to him anymore.

There were so many men in the world. Besides Mercer, she couldn't find another man who was as good as him.

She was not a good woman, but she could still find another man who had the same family background as her. At the very least, he would not be as dirty as Mercer.

Shilo looked up at her aunt's angry face and tried to calm herself down. She smiled and said, "Listen to me first."

Perye ignored her.

She slowly said, "Your uncle and I have worked so hard to raise you. Although you don't expect me to repay you, I hope that I can make your life better in the future. My husband and I will be able to repay you and your uncle with enough money. That's why I agreed to this marriage even though I knew that Mercer was not a good person."

"But, he didn't even pay attention to me when I was still married to him. He was caught cheating on my classmate, and he still acted as if nothing had happened. It's been three days, and he doesn't want to apologize to me at all."

"He's not taking me seriously at all. No matter how rich his family is, how can they afford me? After I marry him in the future, how can the money in his family be enough for me to use? How can I repay you and my uncle if I have such a husband?"

When Shilo started to analyze the situation, her attitude changed.

She felt a little awkward when Shilo said that she had raised her up and that she didn't want to repay her.

However, her attention was quickly attracted by what she had to say next.

That was right - she wanted Shilo to marry into the Bennett Family as a compromise, hoping that she would be able to curry favour with the family and get some benefits in the future.

However, Mercer clearly didn't care about Shilo, so she couldn't count on her to get money from him.

Instead of letting Shilo marry into the Bennett Family, she might as well find another man for her.

It didn't matter if that man was a little worse off than her - as long as he liked her and listened to her, she would be able to get money from him in the future.

No matter how rich the Bennett Family was, Shilo wouldn't be able to get any benefits from them.

After thinking about it, Shilo no longer objected to Shilo's decision to break up with Mercer.

Of course, she still had to act like a benevolent elder.

Perye acted like a benevolent elder.

She rubbed Shilo's hand and said earnestly, "I know that you don't like Mercer, and that you don't want to talk to him either. However, I can't do anything about it - I don't have many friends around me, and I can't find a man who is richer than Mercer. You lost your parents when you were three years old, and I raised you like your own daughter. You suffered so much when you were young, so how could I and your uncle bear to let you suffer for the rest of your life? If you marry a rich man, you can at least rely on him and not have to work every day. How could you not understand my pain?"

Shilo's face was filled with gratitude.

She lowered her head and saw that Perye was stroking the back of her hand, so she turned a blind eye to her actions.

She felt nothing but gratitude for Perye's 'gentle' actions.

She had been used to her aunt's attitude towards her since she was young.

Her acting skills and her disguise had all been learned in this house.

Her aunt and cousin were not easy to deal with.

Only her uncle cared about her the most, so even though her aunt and cousin were so hypocritical that she was annoyed, she was still willing to act with them just to make her uncle feel better.

When she was three years old and her parents passed away in a car accident, her uncle was the only person who loved her.

She couldn't bear to see her uncle unhappy, nor could she bear to let her uncle worry about her.

Even though her aunt and cousin's act was disgusting enough, she never showed any emotion.

"Aunt, I understand. You want me to live a happy life in the future, but Mercer really isn't a good candidate for a husband. I don't want to continue with him,"

Shilo raised her head and revealed a troubled expression.

Perye pretended to ponder for a moment before letting out a long sigh.

She patted Shilo's hand and said helplessly, "Alright, if you don't want to be with him anymore, I'll find you a suitable man. You can go for a blind date. If you think someone is better than Mercer, then break up with him. If you think those people aren't as good as Mercer, then don't break up with him."

"Thank you, Auntie."

When Shilo finally agreed to her request, a smile appeared on her face.

It was no easy task.

She had to put on an act every day, especially when her cousin was about to return home in a few days.

It was already enough for her to face her aunt alone. Her cousin, who was better at pretending to be weak, was about to come home. She was going crazy.

She had agreed to the blind date because she wanted to get married and leave this house as soon as possible.

She admitted that she was a conflicted person.

On one hand, she was extremely reluctant to leave her uncle, who had given her so much warmth and love, but on the other hand, she hated her aunt and cousin's hypocrisy. She desperately wanted to leave this house and have her own family.

She hoped that this time, she would be able to find a more reliable man.
