The eldest daughter of the Payne family, Chloe, had a very sonorous voice, and it also had a prideful tone. Chloe was dressed in bejeweled and luxurious clothing. In a general sense, she was considered a woman from the high society of the small county. Her husband's family owned a bathhouse and it was able to fetch them around two thousand dollars in income every day. In a month, the bathhouse was able to generate an income of sixty thousand dollars. Chloe was working in a cotton mill herself, so she was considered to be a worker with a stable income.Not only that, but Chloe also had two stores that her own family had given her when she got married. Those two stores were also able to fetch Chloe a few thousand dollars of income every month. Therefore, Chloe had always been living comfortably like a wealthy woman in the small county.When fur coats were fashionable in the county, she was willing to spend a few thousand dollars to buy fur coats to wear. When it was trendy among the wo
"It's already putting it very nicely to say that they are getting married. They are letting our brother go to the provincial capital to develop his career in their family and also to keep up appearances for their family! He is a child raised by the Payne family, so why should we let the Turner family have the bargain!"What Chloe had said instantly struck a chord with Ashnah and Abigail. All three of them had the same thought. Although their brother was adopted and the Payne family would never give the stores to their adopted brother, they had raised him. It was all the Payne family's credit for raising him into such an outstanding person. They could not just simply give his credit to the Turner family for nothing, so the Turner family had to give them gifts, and it must be a hefty price. That was because a talented person, the top talent in the country, was priceless!When the three sisters were passionately discussing it in private, they even raised the net worth of their brother t
Phil looked at his daughter, Mira. He did not say anything, but his gaze had already told her everything. 'You've seen it, right? The man from a lowly background is right in front of you. The typical man from a lowly background is a man who had made something of himself, so he had to take care of his entire family, which includes his parents, grandparents, and also sisters. Also, his family is going to be occupying a very important position in his life. You, as his wife, are simply just an outsider. Do you still want to marry him?'After he had asked his daughter that with his gaze, Phil turned his head around and looked at Lucius and his wife, as well as the three daughters of the Payne family in an incomparably contemptuous manner.The three girls, however, did not sense Phil's contemptuous gaze at all. It was particularly so for the third daughter. She was the one who had the gift of the gab among the three sisters.The third sister, Abigail, was wearing a small leather jacket. T
"Therefore, it's still very worth it for you to be paying this little bit of gifts."Two hundred dollars in cash, a high-end car, and a house. These were much more than the gifts people usually give to the bride. Not to mention, they even asked for three stores at strategic locations. It was a small county, but if those were stores at strategic locations, they surely would not be able to purchase one without over one million dollars. With all of that combined, the gifts that the Turner family was going to give might cost more than ten million dollars.Phil suddenly laughed. He was laughing because he was angry. Phil was the one who was marrying off his daughter. Originally, he had intended to give more than a hundred million dollars to his daughter when she was getting married. In addition, all of the Turner family's properties were going to be his daughters alone. Who among all those elite and quality men in the provincial capital dared to ask for a single penny of gift when they ma
Everybody was left speechless by what Vireo had said.Mira, on the other hand, felt that she understood Vireo very well at that moment. She already knew Vireo's full name. "Vireo, don't overthink it. After I've married you in the future, I will be a part of the Payne family. We'll all be a family. It's only right for us to be buying properties for the Payne family. Don't feel burdened. I love you."She appeared to be very generous, and her smile was enough to melt Vireo's heart.Vireo's eyes were radiating with gentleness. "Alright, thank you, Mira."He simply wanted this negotiation to end quickly. He just wanted to leave the Payne family to go to the provincial capital as soon as possible. He also was not thinking of relying on his father-in-law and Mira, he just wanted to leave this place that made him feel suffocated but unable to struggle free.After all, they were her adoptive parents. They were his parents who had raised him since birth. He truly could not be so heartless.
Vireo willingly went to the provincial capital with Phil and his daughter, Mira. From the start of the journey to the provincial capital, Phil simply had been ignoring Vireo. Vireo knew it very well that he truly had become a man from a lowly background. However, he did not care. He would use the truth and his action to prove that he would not be a burden to the Turner family. On the contrary, he would certainly bring glory to the Turner family. Vireo had the confidence. Therefore, even though he knew his father-in-law hated himself very much, Vireo also did not explain anything.When they arrived at the provincial capital, Phil did not hold a grand reception to introduce Vireo to the people within his circle and let them be acquainted just because he had gotten himself a son-in-law. Phil only gave his son-in-law the cold shoulder and arranged a place for him to stay. Mira, on the other hand, stuck to Vireo like glue all day long.When Phil saw his daughter like that, he was also fee
Vireo was speechless.It was absolutely shocking when he heard such a piece of news. In Vireo's heart, perhaps nothing mattered. Money, status, wealth, and everything did not matter. However, he wanted to have a family. He wanted a family who was truly close to him. He wanted to have his own child and the kind of affection among a true family. As long as he could have a child, he would not care about money at all, he would not care about everything, and nothing mattered.However, fate truly was too good at joking with him. Vireo wanted a family, he wanted his own loved ones, and he wanted to live an ordinary life like the millions of families in this world. Why was it so difficult for him?It was after a long pause that Vireo smiled and said, "It's fine. The medical field is very advanced now. You can definitely be cured. Even if you're not able to be cured, we can still try in vitro fertilization. What is there to worry about?"Mira looked at Vireo. "No, Vireo, no…I…I can never ha
Vireo did not lash out in anger because the Turner family had shown kindness to him. Mira then told Vireo about the story of her and her ex-boyfriend while in tears.They were classmates in college. That boy's family were high-ranking executives and they were considered a suitable match. When they just started dating, the boy took care of Mira's temper quite well. However, not long after they had been together, her boyfriend's arrogant and domineering temper was completely exposed.However, it was helpless as Mira was already madly in love with her boyfriend then. After all, her boyfriend was handsome, had style, and his grades were also top-notch. He was also very influential in the college and his organizational skills were particularly strong. He had the air of a born king. That kingly air of his had conquered many girls in the school. The number of girls who wanted to line up and throw themselves into Mira's boyfriend's arms was so great that even Mira had lost count.At first,
