She Flash-Married To His Rival novel Chapter 184

Cynthia's recent actions not only left many people in the social circle puzzled but also inadvertently embarrassed Bernice and Eric.

The idea of a marriage alliance between the Covington and Hurst families had been circulating as early as five years ago.

Last year, when Cynthia returned to the country, members of both families even sat down together for a meal.

However, when Barclay suddenly married Moira this year, the talks of an alliance gradually faded away.

Yet, last night, when Bernice brought Cynthia to a high-profile event, the implications became clear.

Despite Barclay and Moira having obtained a marriage license, they had not held a wedding, and Bernice had always hinted at Eric's dissatisfaction with Moira as a daughter-in-law.

With all these pieces of information connected, many began to believe that Barclay and Moira would eventually divorce, making Cynthia the ultimate daughter-in-law of the Covington family.

Everything seemed normal until today. Eric had been planning to pressure Barclay into divorcing Moira and engaging with Cynthia.

However, Cynthia seemed to have transformed overnight. Not only did she post a so-called gratitude statement online, elevating Moira's status, but she also had her father call Eric to cancel the marriage alliance between the two families.

When Eric received the call from Victor Hurst, he was initially unaware of what had happened, thinking it was about discussing the engagement.

Unexpectedly, Victor directly stated, "Barclay has someone he likes and has the freedom to marry anyone he wants. As parents, we shouldn't force them. Eric, I think we have to end our two families' marriage alliance!" This left Eric bewildered.

Despite his attempts to persuade, Victor was determined to cancel the marriage alliance, leaving Eric with no choice but to agree.

After hanging up the phone, Eric's face turned pale.

Bernice cautiously asked, "What happened? What did the Hurst family say?"

Eric replied furiously, "What else could they say? Of course, they canceled the alliance!"
