Chapter 1269
Lilian had always disagreed with her son and Magnolia’s marriage.However, the reason why she had agreed to hold the wedding today was because she wanted to wash her hands of it as much as she could.Therefore, she decided to embarrass and humiliate Magnolia and her family today. She wanted to make it seem as though she was unable to lift her head up high in front of her relatives and friends because of Magnolia’s parents today. With this alone, she would be able to stand on the moral high ground and refuse to allow Magnolia to marry into her family today.This was also representative of what smart parents would do in their daily lives.Smart parents would never give their children an ultimatum whenever they had some kind of dispute with their children.If they made a resolute decision to reject their child’s decision without a doubt, then if their child could not get over the matter or pass the hurdle in the future, then the child would definitely blame or hate his parents in fut

There were two relatively large sales channels for his flour. One was the large supermarkets, such as Carrefour and Walmart. The other was through the medium-sized chain supermarkets such as the supermarkets owned by the Morningstar family.The flour mill industry had relatively low technology content and there was also fierce competition.There were many big grain and oil brands such as Bertolli and Adolphus in Oskia. Their brands were relatively strong and so, their products were also selling relatively well.Moreover, there were also at least a few other local flour brands in every city.So, a small brand like his own would only be able to generate a certain amount of sales locally and his sales were very dependent on the sales channels.If the sales channels gave him more display positions and bought more of his goods, then he would be able to make more money.However, if the sales channels did not give him any display positions or buy any of his goods, then he would not be a

Lilian felt very lost and confused at this time.The thirty million dollar dowry was certainly very attractive. However, the main point was that she would have to ask her son to marry a pregnant woman.Wasn’t this what people would often refer to as fathering someone else’s child?Although she was not a young person anymore, she still had some understanding of these buzzwords.However, when she thought about the fact that Mr. Morningstar had already offered a thirty million dowry and that he was also offering various resources to support their family, then Lilian began to look forward to it deep within her heart.In her opinion, as long as he was willing to give them a lot of money, then it would not be a big problem for her son to father someone else’s child.However, the crucial point of this matter was that it would be easy for her to explain things to her relatives and friends if the other party was pregnant with an Oskian child. She could just tell her relatives and friends

“As for the flour resources in the supermarket, most of it would have to be allocated to my family. If they agree to my conditions, then we don’t even need to decide on any dates. After all, I’ve already set up a banquet here today and there are no names written on the wedding arch yet. You can just ask Mr. Morningstar to send his daughter over here and we can just hold the wedding here today.”After she spoke, Lilian smiled and said, “Madeline, their daughter is already pregnant so it would also be better for them not to delay this matter any further. The sooner, the better. In addition, Madeline, if you assist me with this matter, then I’ll also give you two million dollars as a reward!”The main reason why Madeline was so enthusiastic about running this errand was because Mr. Morningstar had already promised her that if she could find someone who would willingly accept his daughter and her baby, then he would also give her five million dollars as a reward.After all, Mr. Mornings

Mr. Morningstar felt a sense of relief after hearing those words.All his worries were due to the fear of tarnishing his daughter’s name, which would eventually affect her future happiness.Now, right in front of him was a good candidate to be his son-in-law. The most surprising part was that he didn’t even mind having an immediate wedding and was able to make an instant arrangement for it. This kind of guy was hard to find.Therefore, he gave it some thought for a moment before immediately answering, “No problem! Go back and tell your family, fifty million dollars! There won’t be a dollar less, don’t you worry. I will bring my daughter over immediately. We can organize the wedding ceremony on the groom's side first, and then I will invite my family and friends over tomorrow to organize the wedding on my side. Once the ceremonies are done, the wedding can be considered complete.”Madeline spoke excitedly, “Mr. Morningstar is the best! Being able to make big decisions so easily and make

Lilian waved her hands. “If he dares to disagree, his father and I will cut all ties with him! This is not the time for him to object!”After saying those words, Lilian paced toward Draco and Magnolia. With a cold and somber voice, she spoke, “Draco, I will only say this. If Magnolia cannot fork out thirty million dollars worth of dowry, I have no mood to even entertain the idea of marriage!”“Thirty million dollars?!” Draco and Magnolia shouted in shock!Draco couldn’t hold in his anger, and he blurted, “Mother, are you that poor till you’ve lost your mind? You just mentioned ten million, and in the blink of an eye, you’ve changed it to thirty million. Where in the world is Magnolia’s family going to get that crazy amount of money?! Even our family can’t fork out that much!”Lilian grabbed Draco’s sleeve and spoke, “Come with me, I have something to tell you.”She then proceeded to look at her husband and shout at the top of her lungs, “Old man Turk Scotson! Come here!”Mr. Scotson qu

After listening to the calculations, Mr. Scotson immediately made up his mind.He turned to face his son and spoke, “Draco, it’ll be a waste if you don’t pick this wife. Not only did they not request for a dowry, but instead, they are offering you tens of millions worth of dowry. This is an amazing chance!”Draco replied coldly, “Yes. It is very good indeed. It seems as though you don’t mind having a mixed-blood grandson.”Turk said without a shred of embarrassment, “After giving me fifty million dollars? I don’t mind at all! So what if it’s a mixed-blood grandson? For fifty million dollars, I don’t even mind if my son turns out to be of mixed-blood!”Draco snapped back, “Stop wasting your saliva. I am not agreeing to the wedding.”Turk sighed. His face was stern and his tone was firm. “My son. You’re really lacking in experience. You still don’t understand how things work. You’ve never experienced the pain of having no money. I really should have made you live a few days of suffering

It didn’t matter if Lilian had to break her relationship with her son, or that Turk had to cut all ties with his flesh and blood. As long as they were able to force him to do what they wanted him to do, every sacrifice would be worth it.Draco exclaimed aloud, “Since all of you don’t respect me, I have nothing else to say to all of you. If you want to cut ties with me, so be it!”Lilian exploded upon hearing her son utter those words. She snarked, “This cold-hearted b*stard child! Even raising a dog seems like a better choice compared to raising an ungrateful child! You’re willing to disown your own family for the sake of that… that low-life woman! I can’t believe I wasted so many years raising you to be such an unfilial son!”Draco replied, “I’m sorry, mother. I don’t want to live the rest of my life being manipulated by you.”Turk exploded furiously, “You useless son! If you walk out on us today, you won’t be getting any share of assets from us! You’d better reconsider your actions!”
