Chapter 16 Monstrous Father

As Jacob’s eyes were gradually filled with frigidness, he heard a sarcastic scoff. “Hah! Jacob, are you really saying that I’m pampering her? I simply didn’t want you to use my daughter’s happiness as your bargaining chip. As her mother, I can’t let my daughter marry that scumbag of a man!”

“What do you know? Don’t you think I’m doing this for Mich’s sake? Don’t you know how powerful the Xander family is? Yes, Zack has made a mistake, but if Mich were to forgive him now, he’ll be all over her to make things right! Besides, Quentin and his wife will also feel indebted to Mich.

Michaela’s mother was still trying to fight for Michaela’s happiness. “Are you saying that it’s good that he’s trying to make it up to her only after he’d committed an atrocious act? That’s something only a scumbag like you would say! I’m not going to risk my daughter’s happiness, and that’s that!”
