Mr. Pretentious: Miss Valerius, He is Begging for a Title-Chapter 133: Breaking Off the Engagement! I’m Taking the Ford Family’s Little One

Chapter 133

Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Breaking Off the Engagement! I’m Taking the Ford Family’s Little One
The dangerous aura of Sebastian Ford instantly enveloped Eleanor Valerius.
Without turning back, her tense anxiety suddenly dissipated.
She stood here alone, deep in hell.
She had no knife; Sebastian Ford was her only weapon, which, if used improperly, could backfire.
"Master Ford, you came just in time!"
Jenson Lancaster, who was earlier insulting Eleanor Valerius, suddenly wore a sycophantic smile, flattering, "With your blessing as her uncle, you can send Eleanor Valerius to my side, and we can complete the ceremony, becoming husband and wife. Afterward, you’ll be my uncle too, part of the family."
This was Eleanor Valerius’s value in the eyes of the Lancaster Family.
The guests present also echoed these sentiments.
"Master Ford’s personal attendance at the wedding signifies the importance he places on the Lancaster Family."
"Indeed, with the Ford and Lancaster families’ cooperation projects, the Lancaster Family is set to prosper in Aethelgard."
"The grand wedding of Young Master Lancaster and Miss Valerius is indeed a tale to be envied."
They had clearly heard Jenson Lancaster insulting Eleanor Valerius just now.
The marriage was merely a transaction tied to profit.
"Uncle, please send Eleanor Valerius to me."
Jenson Lancaster never expected that his words were simply adding fuel to the fire for Master Ford.
Suddenly, Sebastian Ford let out a sinister cold laugh.
He grabbed Eleanor Valerius’s wrist, not only not sending her to Jenson Lancaster, but holding on tighter.
This was a blatant display of intimacy in a public setting!
Eleanor Valerius held her breath slightly, feeling the scorching warmth of his palm, both familiar and dependable.
Facing everyone’s gaze, Sebastian Ford’s fierce eyes were like a treasure held in his mouth, not allowing anyone else’s coveting.
"The wedding is off! The Valerius Family is breaking off the engagement with the Lancaster Family."
The words landed, shocking everyone present.
Eleanor Valerius glanced sideways at Sebastian Ford’s dangerously possessive demeanor.
Her knife, not only fast and ruthless but also automatic.
"The Valerius Family wants to break off the engagement? On what grounds!"
Jenson Lancaster couldn’t hide his anger, widening his eyes, not aware of how intimately Master Ford was holding Eleanor.
At this moment, Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster hurriedly stood up and approached, questioning, "Master Ford, is there some misunderstanding? Is the Valerius Family breaking off the engagement, or is the Ford Family doing it on their behalf? Even you can’t just announce the cancellation on the wedding day without a reason?"
The guests present were all eagerly watching the show unfold.
Subsequently, Mrs. Lancaster questioned Regina Jennings.
"Mrs. Valerius, were you aware of this? Clearly, it was agreed upon by our two families, so how did Eleanor Valerius’s marriage become Master Ford’s decision? If the wedding and engagement are indeed called off, the Lancaster Family will settle the score with the Valerius Family!"
The Lancaster Family was one step short of outright saying Eleanor Valerius was bought, and calling off the engagement was like returning goods, demanding compensation.
"This..."
Regina Jennings was also caught off guard, unable to offend either side.
She came over, suppressing her voice to ask, "Sebastian, is there a mistake? How can Eleanor and Jenson break off the engagement on the verge of marriage? Does the old man know about this? After all, this concerns the engagement ceremony between the two families."
Questioning Sebastian Ford because his identity represents the whole Ford Family.
Sebastian Ford had, of course, come prepared to steal the bride!
At this point, the Ford Family’s legal team arrived with documents.
"The Lancaster Family signed a project cooperation with forged fake accounts, I only gave them a chance out of respect for my niece’s fiancé. Who would have thought the Lancaster Family dared to plot against the Ford Family, did the Valerius Family know about this?"
Sebastian Ford asked Regina Jennings.
Suddenly, Regina Jennings smartly reacted, immediately distancing herself from the Lancaster Family.
"The Lancaster Family did such a thing? Sebastian, we are family; the Valerius Family was absolutely unaware!"
Then, Regina Jennings hurriedly added, "Eleanor didn’t know either, you have to believe her!"
Eleanor Valerius cooperated with an innocent expression.
She found it amusing, Regina Jennings truly was a fair-weather friend, jumping ship the moment trouble arose.
"Alright, of course, I believe my own."
Sebastian Ford tightened his grip on Eleanor Valerius’s wrist, pulling her directly behind him.
"Today’s wedding cancellation is the Valerius Family breaking off the engagement with the Lancaster Family, Jenson Lancaster is unworthy of Eleanor Valerius!"
With Regina Jennings’s consent, Sebastian Ford had absolute decision-making power.
He stood here, ensuring Eleanor Valerius wouldn’t stand alongside Jenson Lancaster in her wedding dress.
"I’ll be taking the Ford’s little one with me."
Master Ford’s words were a domineering declaration.
At this moment, Eleanor Valerius’s mind trembled, holding her breath as she stared at him.
Who was his little one, exactly?
She truly couldn’t handle him calling her so endearingly.
"Master Ford..."
The Lancaster Family parents and Jenson Lancaster stood there with unsightly expressions.
They never could have expected the Ford Family to discover the fake accounts so quickly.
The implications of the Lancaster Family being rejected were disastrous.
The crowd was in an uproar.
"The Lancaster Family dared to plot against the Ford Family, a complete death wish!"
"Everyone said the marriage was the Valerius Family selling their daughter, but who knew it was beyond the Lancaster Family’s reach."
"The Valerius Family never benefited from the Ford Family all these years, how come Master Ford personally came to annul the engagement for his niece this time?"
The Valerius Family rising to prominence?
Whose credit was this exactly!
"Master Ford, it must be a misunderstanding with the accounts, how could the Lancaster Family dare plot against the Ford Family!"
Jenson Lancaster was utterly panicked, speaking recklessly in denial: "It’s a great honor for the Lancaster Family to cooperate with the Ford Family, especially since we’re about to become family! Master Ford... Uncle! We can discuss the contract later, but let me marry Eleanor first!"
The Lancaster Family, having offended the Ford Family, was now even more desperate to complete the wedding, hoping to use family ties to plead for leniency later!
"Heh, and you think you’re worthy of calling me uncle?"
Sebastian Ford’s eyes narrowed dangerously, public and private grievances leaving no room for Jenson Lancaster!
"Jenson~"
Just then, Sharon Sinclair, tearfully leading ers, arrived.
Eleanor Valerius lowered her head and chuckled, the show was about to begin!
"Why are you here?"
Jenson Lancaster hadn’t anticipated Sharon Sinclair coming to stir up trouble, especially wary of the ers accompanying her.
"Why are you marrying Eleanor Valerius? Were the pledges of eternal love you made to me all lies? I must have been delusional, staying with you even as you cheated and betrayed your fiancée. But you deceived her and me both!"
Sharon Sinclair, crying, publicly accused Jenson Lancaster in front of the ers and everyone of being a jerk.
Cheating and betrayal, publicly being dumped, all fell squarely on Jenson Lancaster!
"Sharon Sinclair, stop talking nonsense, get the hell out, don’t ruin my wedding!"
Jenson Lancaster still wanted to lash out at Sharon Sinclair.
However, Sharon Sinclair dodged beside the ers, directly pulling out his medical from the hospital, publicly thwarting, "Jenson Lancaster, the doctor said your most vital part is done for; this is karma for your infidelity! You’ll never be able to lift your head again to be a man; you’re no different from a eunuch!"
As soon as the words landed, Jenson Lancaster was shamed to the point of hysteria, madly trying to tear the apart.
The relentless mocking voices around him were practically eviscerating him!
"I am not... I am still a man! Stop laughing, don’t laugh at me!"
Suddenly, Sharon Sinclair saw through him.
Threatened by the incriminating video evidence Eleanor Valerius held, she could only fend for herself.
Anyway, Jenson Lancaster was useless now; she first salvaged her reputation, possibly marrying an honest man in the future.
At this moment, the scandal of Jenson Lancaster and the Lancaster Family was ed extensively by the media.
Eleanor Valerius’s revenge on the jerk was deeply satisfying!
Even though today she was threatened by Regina Jennings to come for the marriage, she had her contingencies ready.
Both the Lancaster Family and Jenson Lancaster, today were prey in the jar!
However, it seemed she was also prey.
Secretly observing Sebastian Ford’s somber demeanor, Eleanor Valerius, under the cover of her wedding dress, quietly entwined her fingers with his.
Yet, no reaction from Sebastian Ford?!
