The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire Chapter 484: Meet The Man

“What do you think? If it’s not to your liking, I can refuse the Gray family.”

Noticing that Lila was being hesitant, Johanna let out a long sigh.

“Aren’t you satisfied with the family I chose for you?”.

Lila indeed wasn’t satisfied with this arrangement, but she didn’t dare to voice her thoughts. She wanted
to leave a good impression on both Johanna and Beal. If Johanna had arranged for her to marry into a
well-known rich family in Barnes to enjoy the rest of her life, Lila wouldn’t be so angry.

Janet had married Brandon, a billionaire, nonetheless. As her elder sister, Lila was arranged to marry a
man from a medium family. How could Lila accept this? Lila’s face immediately turned pale and tears
were building up behind her eyes.

“I didn’t mean that, Mom. The Gray family sounds like a good family. You’re right. Janet already got
married. It’s my turn now to tie the knot.”

Lila couldn’t directly say that she didn’t like the marriage her mother had arranged, so she hesitated and
said, “I haven’t seen the man yet and I have no idea what kind of person he is. I’m afraid it won’t be
appropriate to agree right away.”

Johanna studied Lila quietly. She had been in the business world for so many years and dealt with all
kinds of people, so she could easily see right through Lila.

If Lila liked something, she would never have such a reluctant expression on her face. When the Gray
family offered this proposal, Beal hesitated for a good while. After all, there was a huge gap between
these two families in regard to social status and wealth. It was understandable that Lila didn’t want to
marry beneath herself.



Of course, Johanna had mulled it over in her head. However, other than that she was the daughter of the
White family, Lila had no other advantages. She had an ordinary education background and her beauty
wasn’t too outstanding among the rich ladies. Those who could marry into the top rich and powerful
families could never be simple women.

Lila was simple-minded and wasn’t outstanding in any degree. Furthermore, she was spoiled and
pampered at the same time. Even if she married into one of the rich and powerful families in Barnes and
became a wealthy housewife, she would most likely have a difficult time surviving. Johanna knew that
Lila wasn’t happy with this marriage arrangement. However, she also knew clearly that those who had
grandiose aims but puny abilities wouldn’t have a good ending. But she couldn’t say straight to her face
that those families with high social rank were beyond Lila’s reach. Johanna could only sigh that Lila was
too blind to see her situation clearly.

Johanna smiled and said, “In that case, how about I create a chance for the two of you to meet? You can
get to know him and then make your decision afterward. What do you think about that?”

Now, Johanna could only hope that Lila would be satisfied with the man after meeting him. If that was the
case, everyone would be happy and her efforts wouldn’t be for nothing. In fact, Lila wasn’t happy about
this at all, but she had no reason to turn her mother down.

She could only force out a smile and said, “Well, I’ll listen to you, Mom.”

Over the weekend, Johanna organized a simple party at their house. Johanna liked gardening. It was
now early spring. The garden was filled with blooming peonies and roses, altogether looking very
beautiful. Lila picked out a dress for the party rather casually.

Johanna straightened out her dress and reminded her in a gentle voice, “Remember to greet the Grays
when they come and make sure to be polite. Their whole family’s coming tonight. You should make a
good impression with these people.” Lila nodded stiffly at her mother. She was the daughter of the White



family and from an early age, others had always taken care to fawn over her. Since when was she
reduced to humbling herself in front of others? Just then, the doorbell sounded out. As the door was
opened, several people walked into their home. A man in his late twenties was among them.
