Chapter 277

"You... you...

Waylon pointed at the two of them, but he dared not curse again under Dustin's glare.

"Waylon, what do you want? Just say it!" Shawna said coldly.

Waylon's face changed drastically.

"I came here to inform you that..." He suddenly sneered as if he was happy about her misfortune. "You and your mother, Shawna. You must show up at the Riley family villa before 5 p.m. today. "Today, the Finn family will arrive with extravagant gifts to propose marriage.

"The family patriarch says that if you two don't show up, you'll lose everything you have now!"

When Waylon said that, Shawna's face darkened.

"Marriage?" Dustin frowned.

How cliche!

Another family that was forcing an old-fashioned arranged marriage yet again.

Then again, with Shawna's stunning beauty, it was not surprising for her to be caught in the web of arranged marriages tied to family interests.

'Since Shawna took good care of Mrs. Swift, I should return the favor. I can't let the Riley family manipulate her and cut her happiness short,' Dustin secretly thought.

"You didn't even ask about our opinion. It's insane that you just went ahead and arranged the marriage!" Shawna said angrily.

"Haha... all these years, you both have lived a good life in the Riley family, haven't you?" Waylon sneered even more. "Why do you think the Riley family let you manage Creative Arts Corporation when you're an illegitimate child? Because of your supposed talent? "Let me tell you honestly. If your mother hadn't begged the family patriarch, both of you would've been kicked out of the family long ago!"

Shawna's face turned pale in shock.

She did not even know that her mother had begged the family patriarch.

"Everything comes with conditions, doesn't it?" Shawna asked softly.

"Of course!" Waylon's smirk became more pronounced.

"Your mother already agreed to it. It's not up to you to decide anymore. Come early in the afternoon.

"You'd better behave. If the marriage falls through, the family won't spare you!"

After Waylon said that, he glanced fiercely at Dustin, turned around, and got back into the car.
