Chapter 79 A New Sweetheart

A New Sweetheart

With these words, the expressions of many individuals changed. Each stared speechless at

the other.

No one dared to eat, and the living room fell into an abrupt silence as no one dared to utter a sound. At this moment, all were anxiously gazing at Kevin.

Although Jonathan had a strained relationship with the Sanders Family, he seldom visited. He only came on specific dates and major holidays.

Still, he rarely encountered such a tense atmosphere.

As his slender and well–defined hand leisurely stirred the soup with the spoon, Jonathan’s flickering dark eyes hinted at danger.

Michael’s face darkened. Seeing that he was getting suppressed by his son in such a manner, he couldn’t help but feel angry. “What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think our family needs her insignificant share? The engagement proposal is for the daughter of the Kins Family. Angela is their legitimate daughter. This marriage is per the parents‘ wishes and the matchmaker’s words. Fanny is nothing but an adopted daughter of the Kins Family. Why is she involving herself in this matter?”

At once, Jonathan chuckled. “Dad, I’m surprised that you actually asked Christopher to keep to an arranged marriage. Aren’t you the one who despises these traditions the most?”

His words weren’t merely tearing off a fig leaf. Rather, it was exposing Michael, his biological father’s secrets.

Teresa Webb was Christopher’s biological mother. Back then, she was just a poor student who had to sell herself to make a living. Teresa did not come from a notable family background, nor did she have talent. What she merely relied on was her insignificant appearance.

By chance, she was pursued by Michael, who adored freedom and despised engagement’s

constraints.

Dad is a man who caused his first wife’s death for the sake of true love. Yet, he is discussing the topic of engagement now. Does he seriously think I will buy his crap?

I’m not dumb. He is merely attempting to secure more benefits for Christopher. He fears I will leave no place for Christopher when I have complete control over the Sanders Family and the Lawsons one day.

Chapter 79 A New Sweetheart

“You! You!” Michael trembled with anger.

Compared to Michael’s loss of composure, Jonathan, who sat on his seat, appeared much more composed.

While sipping his soup, he calmly asked, “Could it be that you’re planning to let Christopher follow in the footsteps of you and Teresa? Publicly marry Angela and keep Fanny as a mistress in the suburbs?”

Jonathan’s words pierced Michael’s heart like a thorn, causing his expression to turn livid.

Kevin, who had remained silent all along, sighed. Then, he stood up and looked at Christopher. “Christopher, this is your marriage. What do you say?”

Christopher was slightly taken aback, for he never expected the decision–making power to fall on him.

Gritting his teeth, he swiftly glanced at his father before making a decisive statement. “Grandpa, I don’t fancy Angela. Although Fanny isn’t the biological daughter of the Kins Family, they had raised her since she was young. She is a good girl and is the one I have always loved.”
