Chapter 642 Find Him A Hypnotist

I do not care for the child in that woman's belly, even if it was a Shurmer. Being the Hoffman family's heir, that b*tch has a complicated background. Though the Shurmer family has no cause to fear the Hoffman family, both sides stand to lose if a war broke out. It is not worth it to wipe out our bloodline for somebody who isn't even born yet. I would rather my son marry a woman with no background or societal standing than have him provoke a prestigious family as big and ancient as the Hoffmans. Doing that is no different from playing with matches and raining death and destruction onto our family. Besides, I never liked that little b*tch. I don't care if she's pregnant. She will never marry into the Shurmer family without my blessing.

Zeke watched her. Though his expression was blank, his gaze was frigid.

“I'm not telling you to ask for your blessing. Truth be told, I will be breaking Juliana out of that place no matter what you think. Aside from the fact that she is carrying my child, I owe her that much just from the fact that she's Bay's disciple alone. If you're worried about me implicating the Shurmer family, you could discuss the matter of disowning me with my father. I'll give you back all my rights and be officially out of the Shurmer family. Whatever trouble I get into will never come back to haunt you.”

Waverly's eyes widened with disbelief.

How could he say that? Is he going to cut himself from his family for a woman? We have spent decades nurturing him, grooming him with much difficulty to take over the family. He would give up everything for an unimportant woman. Just what a great son I have raised.

“Are you going to sever ties with your mother, Zeke? You would do that for a woman? How could you be so irresponsible?”

Zeke smiled coldly. “I'm glad you brought that up. You should know I have a responsibility for her and her son—a man's responsibility. On the one hand, you want me to be responsible, while on the other, you're forcing me to abandon them. Isn't that double standards?”

Waverly choked.

My son is too quick with words. I cannot outwit him.

Naturally, she would not allow him to give up his birthright, nor would she stand and watch while he severed ties with the Shurmer family.

It took us years to raise a worthy heir. He is the only son of the Shurmer family. What will happen to us if he leaves?
