chapter 10

Thinking about all this, Joy felt a surge of sadness. Especially after inheriting this body, she could clearly feel how much Joy had loved Christopher. Even though her consciousness had taken over, she could still sense this body's dependency on Christopher.

But what did she receive in return? Christopher and Amanda had her burnt to death!

Once she had this body, she swore to make these ungrateful people pay.

Joy choked up and said, "Chris, you're only worried about Aunt getting angry. But did you ever think that I could be beaten to death? Today, Aunt grabbed my head and smashed it against the wall. She really wants to kill me. I dare not live with Aunt anymore. If Aunt insists on breaking us up, then let's break up. I don't want you to be in a difficult position."

Christopher's brows furrowed slightly, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes. He feigned concern and reached out to wipe her tears, "Why are you crying? No matter what happens, I will definitely marry you. My mother was a bit impulsive today, but you shouldn't blame her. After all, she saw her future daughter-in-law sleeping with another man. It's understandable that she can't accept it due to her age."

"I know, I don't blame Aunt. Because she can't accept it, she will definitely not let you marry me. Let's move out first and secretly register our marriage, okay? We don't have to have a wedding ceremony right away. We can wait until I get the company shares and dividends, and then have the ceremony. At that time, you can have as grand a wedding as you like. As long as Chris is willing to marry me right away, I can give you anything."

A flash of delight crossed Christopher's face. The originally scheduled wedding date was still more than half a year away, and he had to endure this foolish woman for a long time.

Now that she proposed to get married sooner, it couldn't be better. The sooner he got the shares, the sooner he could get rid of this bumpkin.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm marrying you not for your money. Isn't it inappropriate for us to hide this from my mother?" he said.

"Chris, all you need to do is bring the marriage paperwork. Even if Aunt finds out later, you can say that I stole your documents and forced you to get the marriage certificate. Aunt will only blame me. Chris, don't you want a yacht? Once you get the shares and dividends, you will be able to buy one right away. If Aunt finds out, she will definitely object."

Christopher's eyes brightened further. He had been wanting to buy a yacht for a long time, but it was too expensive, not to mention the maintenance costs. Most importantly, his mother strongly opposed him buying such a luxury, considering it a waste.

His mother was used to being poor and didn't understand what true enjoyment was. With Joy's shares, would he still worry about money? He could waste it however he wanted.

Not to mention a yacht, he could even buy planes at will in the future. If he continued to live with his mother, with her controlling everything, how could he enjoy the life of a rich young man?

He had been wanting to move out of the house for a long time, and this was a perfect opportunity. Anyway, Joy, this foolish woman, would take the blame.

Joy naturally noticed the change in his expression. She knew that Christopher wanted a yacht, but Lucy would never buy one for him.

Lucy was a very dominant woman. She only had one son, and she was very strict with him. Christopher had been obedient to her since he was a child. His father invested all the money he earned as a driver in the Joy family into Christopher's education, and Christopher did manage to earn two degrees through hard work.

But his monthly salary of a few thousand dollars could not satisfy Christopher's material desires.

After Christopher got engaged to her, although she gave all her money to Chris, it was all controlled by Lucy. Christopher couldn't touch anything, and he had long been complaining about this.

How could he possibly want his parents to control his money for a lifetime? He even dreamt of flying private planes to show off every day.

Now that they were secretly married and had access to the money from the shares and dividends, he could buy whatever he wanted without Lucy knowing. How could Christopher not be tempted?
