Part 3The Inheritance Switch

"Besides, as an illegitimate son, if I marry him, the King family will be the foundation for him to establish himself in the Sterling family. He definitely won't treat me badly."

Nowadays, Mia has become a figure everyone in the circle flatters and tries to befriend. Countless people rush to get to know her.

After all, the Sterling and Reed families are a powerful alliance. If there is an opportunity to cooperate, one can definitely take their industry to the next level.

I had no time to pay attention to these things, concentrating on completing the tasks Mom gave me abroad.

On the day of Grandpa Sterling's birthday, Mia specifically sent me an invitation and made several calls, so I had to go.

As soon as I stepped into the Sterling family's gate, everyone's eyes fell on me.

I wasn't embarrassed at all, smiling as I handed the gift in my hand to the Sterling family butler.

"Why is Clara here? Wasn't the engagement partner changed?"

"You don't know yet? At that time, Young Master Sterling insisted on changing partners. In a fit of anger, she chose the illegitimate son of the Sterling family for the alliance."

"Even marrying an illegitimate son to enter the Sterling family, Miss King really goes all out."

Just as everyone was discussing, Mia appeared holding Ethan's arm high-profile.

Unlike her usual low-key and gentle attire, she wore a haute couture gown today, carrying several sets of intricate and luxurious jewelry, making her look bejeweled but somewhat tacky.

Seeing me here too, she came over affectionately trying to hold my arm.

"Sister, it's simply wonderful that we sisters can marry into the Sterling family together. For the sake of sisterhood, I will definitely ask Ethan to promote brother-in-law more."

I almost laughed at Mia. Even now, she still thought what I cared about was marrying into the Sterling family.

Ethan thought so too. In his eyes, I would use any means to marry into the Sterling family. He looked at me as if I were something dirty.

I couldn't be bothered with these two people. I turned to leave but saw a pair of excellent quality jade bracelets on Mia's wrist.

These were the Sterling family heirloom jade bracelets, always kept by Grandpa Sterling. I didn't expect them to appear on Mia. Plus, she wore at least three or four bracelets on her arm, so I didn't recognize them at first glance.

The Sterling family heir hasn't been determined yet; how could these bracelets be on Mia?

I pointed at the bracelets on Mia's wrist, my eyes holding a trace of inquiry.

"Where did these bracelets come from?"

Ethan had a moment of guilt, while Mia stroked the jade bracelets on her hand, her face showing a bit of grievance.

"Sister, these bracelets were meant for you before, but now the one marrying Ethan is me, so these bracelets naturally should be given to me."

Ethan also nodded righteously. After all, in his heart, he was already the certain heir. Taking out the bracelets in advance for his lover to wear wasn't unacceptable.

"These are my Sterling family heirloom jade bracelets. I can give them to whoever I want to wear them. What does it have to do with you?"

After speaking, he looked me up and down, taking a step back in disgust.

"Don't delusionally think you can pester me this way. I won't like you; my heart only has Mia."

Ethan's voice wasn't quiet. Several gazes around fell on me.

"Clara usually looks quite aloof. I didn't expect her to try snatching her own brother-in-law just to marry into the Sterling family."

"Their hearts are connected; why is she still thinking of pestering him relentlessly?"

Mia blushed, hitting Ethan shyly.

"Don't be so fierce to my sister. After she marries in, we will still be family. You have to help them more then."

Ethan glanced at me and pinched Mia's cheek dotingly.

"Fine, for Mia's sake, I won't fuss about it. But if you have any improper thoughts about me, don't blame me for being ruthless then."

The two were still being affectionate when a voice sounded behind them.

"Why would my wife have improper thoughts about you?

Ethan, it's too rude of you to speak about your future sister-in-law like that."
