Chapter 413: 413 Why should I betray my husband? (2)_1
Eleven relied on her own insights to quickly assess the current situation.
Based on their conversation, she deduced that Gu Tianyu was already married abroad to a woman named Mandy, in a secret ceremony that concerned only the two of them.
Moreover, Gu Tianyu’s wife, like her, had zero contact with the Gu Family, not even a photograph existed.
From their tone towards him, it seemed quite indulgent, presumably they let him do whatever he wished. It appeared Tianyu, by nature, preferred a free-spirited life with his wife abroad.
Indeed, with the eldest Gu son dead, the second son in prison, and the fourth son, Gu Liancheng, at odds with the family, all their doting shifted to their remaining jewel, Tianyu, obviously.
Observing the seemingly pleasant atmosphere, Eleven decided not to expose Gu Tianyu’s lie, after all, doing so would not benefit her in any way.
Yeah, it seems they dote more on Brother Three Gu. As his "wife", she can still comfortably sit here eating and drinking. If she told them she was actually involved with Gu Liancheng...
She had no clue what could happen.
She might as well enjoy the food and drink. After all, acting based on the situation is a sign of a visionary!
"Tianyu, don’t forget your grandfather’s eightieth birthday celebration is coming up. Don’t go gallivanting elsewhere with Mandy and forget to celebrate with him!"
"There will be no gallivanting!" Gu Chengde, their father, stated. "You will stay in Xicheng and not go anywhere! I’ve got several uncles to vote for you, we must overthrow him! If we fail again, you might as well stay abroad forever!"
Eleven paused with her chopsticks in her mouth.
Why was there such a discrepancy between his children?
Eleven fell silent, continuing to eat.
"Dad, my fourth brother is very powerful, how can I possibly topple him, right, wife?"
Eleven was sure this statement was directed at her.
Madame Gu gently patted Gu Chengde. "Enough, let’s welcome Tianyu back with joy today, why bring up such ominous topics?"
Eleven sipped her soup, keeping her head down.
Ominous?
Was she referring to Gu Liancheng?
If this was the dynamic of their family, no wonder Liancheng almost never returned to the Gu Residence.
Gu Tianyu leaned towards her and whispered, "You’re pretty smart, knowing not to expose me... You’ve never met anyone here before, right? But you’re handling this well and not giving anything away, you’re truly someone my fourth brother would be interested in..."
What nonsense about him being interested in her!
If he knew that her relationship with Gu Liancheng was pure coincidence, he’d realize his own pretentious cleverness.
But Eleven didn’t respond to his provocation.
Their whispered exchange appeared very intimate, and Eleven’s face held a pleasant smile, causing everyone at the table to laugh.
"Tianyu, Mandy, you’ve been married for a while now, have you thought about having children yet?" Madame Gu asked.
Gu Tianyu tossed the question to Eleven, his arm resting on her shoulder, "Wife, Mom’s asking you a question. When do you want to have children?"
Eleven gave a meaningful smile, "First comes a career, then comes marriage. If he doesn’t secure the CEO position, who would want to have his children."
Her words seemed like a playful tease at Gu Tianyu to the others. After all, acting was her strength! She was a professional performer, so improvisation wasn’t a challenge for her.
"Oh?" Gu Tianyu raised an eyebrow, "So you mean that if I secure the CEO position, you... would have my children?"
