As soon as Egbert and Somoset heard these words, their expressions fell as they glared at Momo.
"Momo, stop messing around," Lyla scolded.
Somoset looked towards Ernest and said in disdain, "Brother, Momo is your daughter, you have to discipline her."
Ernest hesitated for a while before summoning the courage to say, "Actually, I think that we should consider Momo's thoughts too since it is her marriage. I think Fade isn’t a bad choice after all. The Soo family can consider-."
Before Ernest finished his words, Egbert interrupted him sharply, "Shut up, Ernest, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Dad, I ." Ernest tried to explain.
However, Egbert did not give him the chance to continue. "Needless to say, you have seen everyone's opinion. Then, it is settled. Momo will be engaged to Hector, and the date will be set on 99
Disappointment and despair were evident in both Ernest and Momo's expressions when they heard Egbert's words.
Just as everyone thought that the matter had been settled, there came a voice. "Master Soo, in fact, I support Mr. Fade."
Everyone looked over at the source of the voice in shock.
When they saw who it was, they were stunned. Even Master Soo frowned slightly in surprise.
"Andrew Xu has spoken
"Andrew is a real estate tycoon in South Bay City, and he can be regarded as one of the wealthiest bosses here.”
"Why does he support Fade? I don't understand at all."
"That's right, Andrew has no relation with Fade!"
Amidst the cries of surprise, everyone turned to Andrew.
Andrew smiled and said, "In fact, Mr. Chen is much more outstanding in every aspect than what everyone thinks. Moreover, Miss Memo has someone she likes. So, I think that Mr. Chen is a good choice."
The discussion just grew heated when they heard Andrew's words. Nobody understood why Andrew was supporting Fade.
The expressions on the Yao family's face fell.
Salgado snorted coldly at Andrew, "Director Xu, it is quite clear that you are not aware of the affairs between the Yao family and Soo family. It's best for you not to speak casually."
The words carried weight and had a hint of threat.
However, Andrew didn't change his mind. Instead, he smiled and said to Salgado, "Mr. Yao, I am just voicing out my opinion. In my opinion, Mr. Chen is indeed a better option."
"You..." Salgado was at the verge of anger, but at the critical moment, his father, Finnegan pulled him back. He did not speak, but instead cast his eyes on Egbert, who was the host of the event.
Obviously, Finnegan did not want to have a meaningless argument with Andrew. As long as Egbert made his decision, it didn't matter what other people thought.
Egbert understood what the Yao family was thinking. He glanced at Andrew and said slowly, "Thank you Director Xu for your opinion, but we have our own choice for the marriage of the Soo family. We still choose Hector."
