The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 467 A Wrong Decision

"Who said my Jessica must marry Smart? The Evans might be the second-ranked family among The Eight, but I didn't really like what I saw with Smart," Avery declared, still disconcerted by the previous events where Daniel ended up overpowering Smart. If Smart couldn't even handle a country boy, then he certainly wasn't fit to marry her daughter. He just wasn't worthy.

Pork was taken aback by Avery's words. He looked at her incredulously and asked, "Cousin, are you seriously considering marrying Jessica off to this country boy? Jessica is the granddaughter of The Matthews. Marrying her to a country boy would be a disgrace to the entire Matthews family! As the eldest grandson of The Matthews, I absolutely refuse to accept this!"

Avery's face turned stern at Pork's response, and she demanded, "Pork, are you trying to teach me a lesson here?"

"Of course not! I wouldn't dare. I'm just kindly reminding you, cousin. Jessica is your only precious daughter; please don't make a wrong decision."

"What do you mean by a wrong decision? It's my daughter; she'll marry whoever I want her to marry!"

Daniel caught onto the conversation and immediately interjected with enthusiasm, "Mom, so you agree to give me Jessica in marriage? You'll bless our union, won't you? And you'll even provide a generous dowry! Oh dear mom, I love you!"

"Get lost! If I married Jessica off to a dog, it wouldn't be to you, you rascal! You even think you have a chance at marrying my daughter?"

At that moment, the door to the operating room opened, and a man with gold-rimmed glasses, followed by a group of doctors, walked out. His name was Bright Kim, the youngest chief of 108 Hospital and the most prized disciple of USA's top doctor, Joshua.
