Chapter 849: A Hundred Ways to Appease a Daughter

Ruud saw Ian fuming with rage and quickly tried to smooth things over. "No, Dad, you've misunderstood! From now on, I'm your son!"

He couldn't figure it out. On the battlefield, he was decisive and commanding, yet in front of his future father-in-law, he could barely string a sentence together.

Ian was completely livid. If this continued, Ian might actually get sick from anger, and if that happened, how would Natalie ever be able to marry him? No, no, Ruud had to calm Ian down as soon as possible.

But just as he finished speaking, Brandon and his brothers immediately objected.

"Ruud, do you have no shame? If you're going to call our dad yours, then what does that make us?"

"You're General Praevion for crying out loud, and now you're here trying to steal someone else's father? Does your own dad know about this?"

Ruud waved dismissively. "Don't worry about him; he has plenty of kids. He won't miss me."

Leo, from a distance: This ungrateful son, he'll be the death of me!

Ian snorted angrily. "I have plenty of sons as well. I don't need you!"

"But none of them are General Praevion!" Ruud replied earnestly. "Wouldn't it be impressive to have a General Praevion as your son?" Brandon and his brothers exchanged incredulous looks.

Was this man shameless or just completely delusional?

Ian roared, "Someone, throw him out!"

A group of Brookes family staff stormed in. Ruud, unwilling to fight back, was quickly carried out by the servants and thrown out the gates.
