Old Master Mallory could not help but laugh when he looked at how desperate they were to use the Mallory family's name to solve their current crisis. He took a sip of the tea and let out a sigh. He remained silent for a long time.

Madison and her father exchanged looks at each other. She then said in a sweet voice, "Grandpa, I really like Percy very much. So, I'm asking for your permission to let us get married earlier. After the wedding, I'll try my best to become a good wife for Percy. I'll help Mallory Corporation penetrate the global market.”

Old Master Mallory placed his teacup back on the saucer. He understood how desperate they were.

If it were the Johnston family in the old days, then he would certainly agree to it on behalf of Percy, but things were different now. He put on a serious expression and looked at the father and daughter. He said, "I don't think it's the right time now. It'd be better if the Johnston family can focus on solving the problem at hand. After that, we can discuss the wedding matters."

Nick got anxious when he heard that. He explained, “Old Master Mallory, you must be thinking that the Johnston family is hoping to overcome the crisis through this marriage, right? I'm sorry but you've got it wrong. We're confident that we can solve the crisis ourselves. It's just that my daughter can't wait to get married, so that's why I came to discuss it with you. If you're not comfortable with it, then I can guarantee that the Johnston family will never ask for a penny from the Mallory family to overcome this crisis after the two's wedding.”

All he wanted was the Mallory family to back them up to assure the banks.

Old Master Mallory shook his head. He had already figured out the ways of survival in the business world. The Johnston family did not need the Mallory family to invest their money in them to get through the crisis this time. They wanted the Mallory family to back them up so that it would be convenient for them to borrow money from banks.

However, the Mallory family could not take the risk.

Mallory Corporation was doing quite well now, but no one knew what would happen in the future. Should anything untoward happen and they needed to take out loans from the bank, what should they do if their reputation was ruined by the Johnston family failing to overcome their crisis?

In the beginning, Old Master Mallory was only thinking about the future. That was why he forced Percy to marry the daughter of the Johnston family. Now that the Johnston family was in trouble, he was sure that he could no longer cooperate with them.

When Nick was about to say something, Madison tugged at his sleeve.

She was afraid that the old master would break off their engagement if her father kept talking.

The Johnston family was in a passive situation right now, but the Mallory family was doing nothing. They were kind enough not to kick them when they were down by breaking off the engagement.
