WantNovelMarried At First Sight Chapter 4071 Chapter 4071
Mrs. Du continued, "I understand that you and Spencer have only ever been like brother and sister, but
relationships can grow. Who's to say it couldn't evolve into something more? Abby, while you haven't committed
to Evan yet, keep your options open. Give yourself another path to consider." "Besides, making Evan jealous
might do him sgood. He was already jealous the other day when he overheard our conversation. Let him
see that you have other choices and that you can marry well even without him. Spencer's family adores you, and
our families have always been close. You've known Spencer since childhood-if that's not the foundation for a
strong relationship, | don't know what is."
Abby sighed, her tone tinged with frustration. "Mom, if | get too close to Brother Spencer, it won't just cause
problems with Evan-it'll upset Victoria too. Spencer and Victoria clearly like each other. | don't know what's
holding them back, but they've never crossed that line and made it official. Can't the elders in both families see
that?" Abby didn't harbor romantic feelings for Spencer, but for sreason, their families kept trying to pair

Mrs. Du shrugged off Abby's concern. "It's just a misunderstanding. Right now, both of you are single-neither of
you has a serious relationship. What's wrong with giving it a chance? There's nothing immoral about it. Who
knows? If you and Spencer spend more ttogether, maybe it'll push him and Victoria to finally address their
feelings.
"And as for Evan, seeing you with Spencer will light a fire under him. It'll make him realize how much he wants
you."
It was clear Mrs. Du genuinely hoped Abby would end up with Spencer.
Spencer planned to stay in Huyoniville permanently, while Evan would return to Wiltspoon. The two cities were
far apart, and the thought of Abby moving away made Mrs. Du uneasy.
If Abby married Evan, she'd be moving far from home.
The York family didn't mind taking in a daughter-in-law, but for Mrs. Du, the idea of losing her daughter again
after only recently having her back was difficult to accept.
"Abby," Mrs. Du added thoughtfully, "why not ask Evan if he'd consider being a live-in son-inlaw?"
Abby couldn't help but laugh, lowering her voice to a playful whisper. "Mom, we're not even dating yet, and
you're already talking about this? Besides, | have brothers-my parents don't need a live-in son-in-law.
"And let's be honest, Mom. Evan's the fourth young master of the York family. He's capable, smart, and
resourceful. If he beca live-in son-in-law, wouldn't that put my brothers under a lot of pressure?"
Her brothers had always been wary of Evan, fearing he might use his influence as a son-inlaw to take control of
the Du Group little by little.
Abby's sister, Adalee, had also made it clear she wouldn't cling to her position forever. Once Adalee got married,
she planned to resign from her role as president of the Du Group and work for her husband's company instead.
Her goal was to strengthen the business ties between her husband's family and their mother's family, but she
wouldn't hold on to the reins of the family business.
Adalee was determined not to let anyone outside the family take over or dismantle the Du family's legacy. If her
brothers lacked the ability to lead, she'd focus on grooming the next generation-their nephews and nieces-to
carry the family forward. The Du family's circumstances were different from those of the Ormond family.
In the Ormond family, the eldest daughter was the head of the household because the sons were still too young.
But in the Du family, the male relatives were older than Adalee. Unfortunately, they weren't particularly skilled or
interested in running the family business, which had left the responsibility on Adalee's shoulders. Adalee excelled
in her role, but she had decided on her own to step back once she married.
Recently, Adalee had been pushing her eldest brother to get more involved in the company. She wanted him to
familiarize himself with the ins and outs of the business so that he could take over when she stepped down.
