Chapter 2

The next day, Blaire turned on her phone and saw that Tammy, who had threatened to take her own life the night before, had posted a status on social media.

"What's it like to be spoiled by three brothers of the Carter family?"

She attached three photos. The first one showed the indifferent Anthony holding her in his arms and feeding her broth.

The second one showed the unamiable Brandon sitting by her bed and holding her hand with their fingers interlaced.

The third one showed the arrogant Cameron half-kneeling in front of her, his eyes filled with deep concern as he applied medicine to her wounds.

The pretty young woman in the photo smiled shyly and sweetly, looking like the happiest princess in the world.

Many people in the comment sections were envious and posted sarcastic remarks.

"The three brothers of the Carter family all like Tammy. She is surely blessed."

"Exactly. It's not one, but three. How did Tammy manage to do that?"

In addition to those envious people, some people wanted to see how Blaire would make a fool of herself. Blaire casually glanced at a few comments.

"I wonder what Ms. Presley would think when she sees these."

"What opinion could a flatterer have? She used to constantly pursue the three brothers; she must be insanely jealous when she sees this.

"She'll definitely rush to look for the three brothers again. How many minutes do you bet she'll be there?"

"I bet ten minutes."

"I bet five minutes."

"I bet three minutes. I'm betting with my newly bought sports car."

…

Many people started placing bets with great interest, and the stakes kept getting higher.

Blaire just smiled it off—she would no longer blindly pursue them like before. Then, she quickly typed a few words on her phone. "I bet forever."

Upon seeing her comment, many people messaged her to ask if she was joking. She simply turned off her phone and stopped checking the messages.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The housekeeper of the Carter family was standing outside.

"Ms. Presley, Mrs. Carter Senior has chosen the date for the wedding. It'll be on the 5th of next month, which is a good day for marriage.

"The Carter family will handle all the wedding arrangements. You only need to choose your favorite wedding dress and wedding ring and make the final decisions.

"Mr. Carter asked me to pass you the house he gifted you. These are the keys, and you may decorate the house according to your preferences."

With that, the housekeeper took out a property transfer agreement and a set of keys, respectfully placing them in front of Blaire.

"By the way, Mr. Carter is still on a business trip abroad, handling some important matters. He will return before the wedding, so please don't worry."

After explaining everything, the housekeeper turned and left.

The 5th of next month was just half a month away. It was just around the corner.

As she held the house keys, Blaire felt more at ease as the cold, hard keys gradually absorbed the warmth from her hand.

She had bought many decorations and ornaments for the house and had gotten some maids to decorate the house together.

Once the decoration was done, the tension of getting married instantly kicked in. The simple, modern design was slowly adorned with her favorite decorations, and it started to feel like home.

As she looked at the house that was nearly finished being decorated, she suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness.

Matthew was from a different generation than her. Since she was young, she had only ever felt reverent toward him. Now, she was about to marry a man like him.

After returning home, a maid handed her an auction invitation card along with an auction catalog. With no interest in going, she just flipped through the catalog until the very end.

Just then, a men's watch caught her eye. The watch was named "Eternal Love", symbolizing unwavering love until death. It was custom-made by a princess, Anna Spencer, for her lover in the last century.

It was elegant and exquisite, and there was only one in the world.

With just a glance, Blaire felt that the watch perfectly suited Matthew. She should get him a gift on their wedding day, so she went to the auction the following day. She was determined to acquire the watch.
