As the room fell silent, Steve boldly dered, “Uncle Ward, I truly apologize, but I can’t marry your daughter. I am alreadymitted to the love of my life, and I will only marry her.”


    “What kind of game is this?” Grant Ward shouted, his brows furrowed as he red at Leann. “I brought my daughter here, and now you pull this?! Are you trying to make a fool out of me? Or are you attempting to use this situation to demand a higher dowry?”


    “No! Absolutely not!” Leann eximed, shaking her hands defensively. With a guilty tone, she added, “Mr. Ward, I would never treat you like a fool. This son of mine is… mentally challenged! I’m currently trying to educate him!”


    Steve quickly cut in, “There’s no need for you to lecture me anymore. I’m leaving right now!”


    Leann shouted back, “You dare?! If you walk out that door, I will break your legs!”<fnfb15> N?w ?ovel chapt?rs are published on FιndNovel</fnfb15><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie, who had been trying to keep hisposure all day, finally snapped. He turned to Leann and said impatiently, “Old hag, if you keep this nonsense up, I will take matters into my own hands!”


    Leann pointed an using finger at Charlie, then turned to Grant Ward and said, “Mr. Ward, this brat is the one trying to brainwash my son. If it weren’t for him, my son would have agreed to the marriage. Please be patient while I sort this out!”


    Grant Ward felt his frustration rising. He wanted nothing more than to see his daughter walk down the aisle with Steve and resolve this matter once and for all.


    In his impatience, he didn’t notice that Leann was attempting to shift the me onto Charlie. He turned to Charlie and snapped, “Brat! If you ruin my daughter’s marriage ns, I will crush you!”


    Charlie retorted with a sneer, “Why are you so desperate to marry off your yam-looking daughter? Is she really that eager to tie the knot?”


    Through gritted teeth, Mr. Ward replied, “I suggest you choose your next words very carefully.”


    David rushed over as he observed the escting argument between Charlie and Mr. Ward. He addressed Mr. Ward, saying, “Inw, please don’t waste your time on this little brat. He’s inexperienced and has yet to see the world. Getting angry over him will only harm your health.”


    After attempting to calm Mr. Ward, David turned to Charlie. “Brat, I don’t know you, nor do you know me. I don’t wish to interfere with your matters, so I hope you will stop meddling in my family’s affairs. Today, my son will marry Mr. Ward’s daughter. So please, stop trying to intervene and leave!”


    “Exactly!” Leann chimed in. “This is our family matter! You, as an outsider, have no idea what’s going on! So please leave! Stop interfering with my son’s wedding!”


    After saying that, Leann’s face flushed with anger as she red at Isabe, saying coldly, “And you… you worthless, good-for-nothing! You’re not even married to my son, and you’re already pregnant. Disgusting! My family doesn’t wee sl*ts like you! Now get out!”


    Grant Ward’s expression shifted upon hearing her words.


    Since his daughter was also unmarried and pregnant with a child by a mixed-race man, he felt an ufortable tightening in his chest at Leann’s remarks.


    David noticed the change in Mr. Ward’s demeanor and whispered urgently to his wife, “What on earth are you saying?!”


    Leann soon realized her blunder. While she was criticizing Isabe, she was inadvertently insulting Grant’s daughter as well.


    To rectify her mistake, Leann quickly turned to Mr. Ward and showered him with ttery. “Mr. Ward, please don’t be angry. I was scolding this sl*ut. Your daughter is different; she’s a truedy who even continued her education in America, unlike this one!”


    Tears streamed down Isabe’s face as Leann continued her tirade.


    Seeing Isabe sobbing, Leann chose to insult her further, “What are you crying for?! Did I frame you? Disgusting! Completely undignified! Your entire family is beneath us! You think you can marry into my family? Stop dreaming! Look at yourself! You look like a beggar, and yet you believe you can fit in with us?!”


    Charlie’s rage finally boiled over. He red at Leann and shot back, “You despicable old hag! Your only goal is that fifty million dor dowry, and that’s why you’re forcing your son to marry the Ward’s daughter, isn’t it?!”


    Without a hint of shame, Leann replied, “Yes, I was looking forward to that. So what?! That’s none of your business! Why haven’t you left yet? I told you to go, didn’t I? Take that sl*ut and get out!”


    Charlie chuckled darkly, “Since you’re so eager for this… let me grant your wish.”


    Leannughed, “Now you’re speaking sense!”


    Charlieughed mockingly, “Don’t celebrate too soon. What I mean is that today, your son will have to marry Mr. Ward’s daughter. If you don’tply… I will destroy both your families!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
