Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband ( Cora Lane ) - Season 4 Episode 86

“Cora isn’t even here. What nonsense are you talking about?”

Eason’s patience for Mia was wearing thin, especially because she kept babbling about him having no

chances with Cora. He no longer had it in himself to be civil with her.

However, Mia wouldn’t back down and kept poking at his sore spot.

“I didn’t even mention Cora. How do you know I was talking about her? If you couldn’t bear to be away

from her, you shouldn’t have left her in the first place, and you definitely shouldn’t have associated

yourself with me.”

In fact, Mia was also upset.

The Patton family held a grudge against her for making a scene at the engagement party and refused

to go through with the wedding, which she went along with for the time being.

Later on, she conceived a child with Eason, and there was a little over a month left until she would give

birth. Besides, everyone had mostly forgotten about the embarrassing incident at the party.

Yet, the Patton family was still using her pregnancy as an excuse to postpone the wedding, claiming

that they didn’t want to overexert her.

It finally dawned on Mia that Eason never intended to marry her.

Thus, she was determined to confront him with reality and make him understand that he couldn’t go

back to being with Cora.

But before she could finish her words, Lydia came along.

“Enough! Mind the occasion! Can’t you show some decorum?”

Mia couldn’t even be bothered to retort.

As long as Lydia was around, Eason would agree to every word she said. He was a total mama’s boy,

and it was really getting on Mia’s nerves.

She was even starting to envy Cora for managing to escape the awful mother-son duo and achieve a

status far exceeding theirs.

But it was apparent that Lydia was disgruntled at that.

“That woman actually married into our family! I just don’t understand what my parents were thinking!”

Lydia didn’t hold back on speaking ill of Cora in front of Nora to prevent her from becoming a part of the

family. But in the end, Cora still married into the family.

The fact that the woman who almost became her daughter-in-law now became her sister-in-law was

infuriating.

Moreover, she knew she would have to show Cora respect for the sake of the Patton family, and that

just didn’t sit well with her.

For some reason, it seemed like Byron heard her badmouthing Cora.

Byron had been chatting with some important figures from New York while holding a wine glass, but his

gaze landed exactly on Lydia without warning.

At that moment, it wasn’t just Lydia. Eason and Mia were also dumbfounded.

“It’s like he heard us.” Mia was feeling a bit intimidated by Byron.

“That’s impossible. My uncle is so far away.” Eason had similar concerns, though he also felt it equally

unlikely.

Lydia was also harboring feelings of uneasiness, but before she could say anything, she saw Byron

walking toward the three of them with a wine glass in hand.

Quickly, she forced out an awkward smile that was more like a grimace. “Byron, I heard you and Cora

got married. Congratulations.”

“Uncle, congratulations to you and Cora.” Eason raised his glass.

Mia didn’t dare to speak. None of her confrontations against Byron went well, so she tried her best to

be inconspicuous.

“Thank you.”

Byron raised his glass and accepted Eason’s toast, but instead of taking a sip out of his wine, he said,

“But from now on, when you see Cora, you should address her as your aunt.”

Eason’s expression changed dramatically, going through a series of rapid changes within a few

seconds.

Perhaps out of frustration and rage, he talked back at Byron even though he hadn’t planned to.

“Uncle Byron, I had dated Cora for some time, so it’s not just me who needs time to adjust to the

sudden change in her status. I’m afraid Cora needs time to adjust too.”

Lydia was worried that Eason might anger Byron and quickly gave him a tug.

As Byron narrowed his eyes and stared at the mother and son, Cora spoke up from behind him, “I’m

actually quite adaptable. It would be better if you change your term of address for me.”
