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
A fifty-plus-year-old man who already had a family and a home, to marry Mr. Morningstar’s daughter?!Charlie’s words made the entire scene explode in anger.Zell Morningstar became infuriated and began scolding, “You must be looking for death's door! How dare you want for my precious daughter to marry Draco’s father?!”Charlie laughed, “You must be quite blind. Didn’t you just see that Draco was not interested in marrying your daughter? Draco’s parents, on the other hand, seem to want your daughter in their family… very desperately… So, wouldn’t the best solution to this dilemma be to allow Mr. Scotson to marry your precious daughter?”“You little b*stard! What nonsense are you spouting!” Lilian was fuming. “To let my husband marry Mr. Morningstar’s daughter… then what about me?!”Charlie continued, “You? I thought you wanted Mr. Morningstar’s daughter to be part of your family? Doesn’t this solve your problem? You should be thankful for my suggestion.”Charlie then turned to Turk and
”You… you…” Lilian couldn’t find the words to fight back. She turned to Hans and commanded him, “Hans! Come help me beat up this useless good-for-nothing b*stard!”Hans took a few steps backward and said in an annoyed tone, “Second Aunt, I thought you just mentioned that I am not part of your family? You even asked me to scram. Now you want me to beat someone up for you? You change your face faster than a woman changes clothes!”Lilian said with a forced smile, “Hans, please don’t get angry. Whatever I said just now was all words of frustration. Don’t you want to see the Scotson family improve?”“I’m sorry, aunty,” Hans replied almost instantly. “Your family is your family. My family is mine. We are not a family. So, if you want to beat someone up, do it yourself!”After he was done speaking, Hans turned to his other family members and shouted, “Let’s all not get involved in this matter. This is none of our business. Other people’s family problems are theirs to solve. Don’t be a fool a
Jayden had always regarded Zell as a source of easy money. The annual protection fee that Zell paid to him alone was already as much as seven or eight million dollars. In addition to the portion handed over to Albert, Jayden could also save two to three million dollars for himself.So, as soon as he heard that Zell wanted him to beat someone up for him, he blurted out without any hesitation, “Okay, wait a minute. I will bring my men there now!”After Zell had thanked him, he hung up the phone before looking at Charlie and sneering as he said, “Young lad, don’t blame me for not giving you a way out. I asked you to kneel in front of me just now, but you did not cherish the opportunity that I gave to you. Even if you decide to kneel in front of me now, it is already too late.”Charlie smiled as he asked, “Who did you call just now? Chief Jay? Is it Bruce Willis from the movie ?”“You must be mad!” Zell replied coldly. “Chief Jay is Jayden Marquez. He is one of Don Albert’s F
At this time, about thirty or forty aggressive and ferocious-looking men suddenly came out of the other cars.After that, under Chief Jay’s command, these men ran over and surrounded the crowd of people immediately.Zell hurriedly waved at him. “Chief Jay!”Jayden nodded slightly before he glanced at him and asked, “Mr. Morningstar, who does not know their own place and actually dared to offend you?”Zell pointed at Charlie before he said angrily, “Chief Jay, this little b*stard here did not only insult me, but he also insulted my daughter!”Jayden raised his brows as he turned around to look at Charlie. As soon as he saw Charlie, Jayden shuddered in fright.F*ck!It was Master Wade!Jayden was one of Albert’s Four Great Guardians, and he was one of Albert’s favorite and more powerful men after all. He had seen Charlie before when the latter had held a banquet at The Heaven Springs before this.However, at that time, Albert himself had been extremely humble toward Charlie, and
When Jayden heard Zell’s words, he was so furious that he gave him another slap across his face as he cursed, “You still dare to talk back to me? You’d better pay attention to what I’ve just said!”Zell felt extremely wronged and depressed after getting slapped twice. When had he ever gotten beaten up by anyone at all ever since he had become an adult?Not to mention, Jayden had actually slapped him twice in front of so many people today.Although he felt very angry, he did not dare to express any dissatisfaction at this moment at all.He could only nod in anguish before he said, “Chief Jay, you are right. I should pay more attention to what I say in public in the future.”Jayden snorted coldly before he glanced at Charlie. He could not help but feel a little guilty. So, he hurriedly asked Zell, “What the hell is going on here today? Tell me everything in full detail and order!”When Zell heard his words, he immediately spoke up with an expression full of anger and grievance. “Ch
He had even slapped Zell in his face twice before telling Zell to marry his daughter off to Turk…The latter incident was much worse compared to the slap on his face!Zell felt even more depressed at this time, and he truly felt as though he wanted to die. He trembled as he said, “Chief Jay… you cannot turn your back on me and favor someone else now! No matter what it is, both of us can be considered buddies and good brothers! My daughter could also be considered as your niece! Do you really have the heart to marry her off to a bad old man such as Turk?!”Jayden immediately replied, “Zell, even though both of us are familiar with one another, you cannot simply talk nonsense. Both of us are just ordinary acquaintances. Whoever said that I can be considered as your own brother?!”Zell was shocked, and he hurriedly replied, “Chief Jay, we have already known each other for so many years. I have never failed to give you benefits every year. I even gave you a big red envelope just some t
”F*ck!”As soon as Jayden heard that Albert was here, he immediately knew that his boss was here because of Master Wade.Consequently, he looked at Zell with sympathy as he shook his head and said, “Zell, don’t blame me for not giving you a heads-up. You’d better get ready to marry off your daughter today!”After he was done speaking, he hurriedly walked over to meet Albert.At this time, someone in the crowd said, “Oh my God! Don Albert is actually here with the other three men from the Four Great Guardians! These were the four great generals under Don Albert’s command! After Don Albert became the mobster boss of the underground world of Aurous Hill, he assigned these Four Great Guardians to a different territory each. It has been a very long time since the four of them have shown up together!”When everyone heard this, they could not help but feel very shocked.Claire asked Charlie in a low voice, “Charlie, were you the one who asked Don Albert to come here?”Charlie nodded be
