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!”
Charlie laughed after hearing what Turk had to say.Leave Hilton on a stretcher?This Turk truly didn’t know anything about this world.Nevertheless, for him, Charlie Wade of the Wade family, to attack this… this insignificant peasant… it was indeed a little undignified.Therefore, after much thought, the best way to solve this would be to give Albert Rhodes a call. Let him bring a few people along like that time with Kevin White. Then, he would just let the lackeys teach this husband and wife a lesson.Suddenly, a Rolls Royce drove up.Madeline, who had been silent all this while, suddenly jumped. “Oh! Mr. Morningstar is here!”As soon as she said that, Turk and Lilian tensed up.In their minds, they were hoping that Mr. Morningstar would have taken his own sweet time to travel to Hilton. During that time, they were hoping to solve the Magnolia issue. If push came to shove, they were going to pay her a few hundred thousand dollars as a reward for leaving their son.What they did not a
To Juliet, being pregnant was no big deal. Since she was already pregnant, all she needed to do was abort the baby. It was just like all the other times, nothing to worry about.However, during her trip to the hospital, the doctor advised her not to abort the baby as her reproductive organ had reached its limit. If she were to undergo this abortion, she would never be able to get pregnant ever again.Only after hearing those words did Juliet realize that she was in deep trouble.Every woman would like to be a mother someday. Although she was not ready to give birth to a child now, what if she suddenly wanted a child of her own in the future? Not being able to bear children wasn’t something she would want.Due to this, she had come forward and told her parents about it. Upon hearing this, Mr. Morningstar had been furious, but he couldn’t neglect his daughter’s future.Furthermore, she was his one and only daughter. Although she was not a son, he still wished for her to bear him a grandc
After Lilian had spoken, she rushed off into the crowd and said to Draco, “Come quick! Follow me to greet your future father-in-law. I’m warning you, if you spoil my plans, your father and I will never forgive you!”Draco was infuriated. “I’ve already told you, I’m cutting all ties with you. What future father-in-law are you talking about?!”Magnolia felt a tightening feeling in her chest as she looked at Draco and asked, “Draco, what is this all about?”In the spur of the moment, Draco shouted angrily, “My parents have gone crazy from greed! They desperately want me to marry this big boss’s daughter, and they want me to marry into the other family. There was also a rumor saying that their daughter was pregnant with a mixed-race man’s baby, and they want her to give birth to it.”After saying those words, everyone, including Magnolia, Claire, and Charlie, were stunned. Even the rest of the Scotson family were shocked by the news!Charlie finally understood the situation. This husband a
As the voices were drowned out by the silence, Draco immediately spoke up, “Uncle Morningstar, I am very sorry but I can’t marry your daughter. I already have the love of my life, and I am only going to marry her.”“What game are you playing at?” Zell Morningstar bellowed with arched brows as he glared at Lilian. “I even brought my daughter here and now… you do this?! Are you playing me as a fool? Or are you trying to take this opportunity to force me to increase the dowry?”“No! No!” Lilian quickly shook her hands in reply. In a guilty voice, she said, “Mr. Morningstar, I dare not take you as a fool. This son of mine, he is… mentally challenged! I am currently lecturing him!”Draco immediately intervened, “You don’t have to lecture me anymore, I’m leaving now!”Lilian shouted, “You dare?! If you walk out today, I will break your legs!”Charlie, who had tried to keep his mouth shut for the day, finally lost his cool. He turned to Lilian and said impatiently, “Old hag, if you still
