Chapter 827
“I’m not trying to be reckless, Dad! Can’t you tell what’s happening right now? Daisy is in charge of the family now and if we stay, do you really think we will be able to live in peace?” Iris questioned bitterly.
“Well,” Gilbert was instantly rendered speechless.
He thought that as Royce’s father, he would still be well taken care of despite having lost the right to become the leader. However, he suddenly came to a realization that after Daisy’s betrayal, his marriage broke apart and he would be at her mercy if he stayed in the family.
Daisy would do whatever she could to suppress Gilbert to prevent him from rising to any position of power, and he would be left to live with no dignity.
Gilbert’s heart was instantly filled with regret as he thought to himself, ‘If I knew that this was going to happen, I should’ve handed the company over to Iris instead of Daisy and we wouldn’t have suffered this much! I’ve brought this on us!‘
“Dad, I can’t stay here any longer. You can stay here if you want to,” Iris said calmly.
“It’s fine. You’re right. We have no place in this family anymore. We might as well leave with dignity,” Gilbert smiled bitterly.
“How is that any of my business? All I know is that you promise to marry your daughter to my son. Neither of you are walking out of here if you don’t fulfill that promise!” Harold said viciously.
“Wh- You have no shame!” Iris paled. She thought that leaving the Youngs would put an end to the marriage proposal, and did not expect Harold to hold onto it.
“That’s enough, Harold Lowe!” Gilbert’s expression darkened with rage.
The Youngs and the Lowes wished to join forces by marrying their descendants and it was understandable from a political perspective.
