Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back! ( Leanne Castillo ) novel Chapter 536

"Tina and I are dating." Phillip announced, nearly causing the utensils in the elders' hands to clatter to the floor. After a moment of surprise, Hamilton's face gradually turned a shade of pale green.

Phillip continued, "The breakup was my fault, and over the past six months, I've never stopped caring for her. That's why I've come to ask for your blessing."

"Ridiculous!" Hamilton's face darkened with anger. "Phillip, you're usually so steady. How come you're suddenly acting wild like Tina?"

"You both made a scene about ending things before, and now, with Tina about to get engaged to Alfred, you come here to say you're in a relationship? Do you think this is some kind of game?"

Phillip remained calm and firm, "I've never treated it like a game. Despite the ups and downs, Tina has always been the one I want to spend my life with."

"This isn't just about the two of you; it involves three families now. Even if you don't care about the Watsons' reputation, what about your parents? Do they approve of this behavior?"

Curtis's failed marriage had taught Maddox and Jennifer a valuable lesson. It's best not to meddle too much in their children's affairs.

Before coming to Capital City, Phillip had already discussed his plans with his parents. Maddox didn't object, knowing full well he couldn't be stopped.

"We had everything arranged perfectly for you, and yet you chose to stir things up. Your mother and I won't interfere; it's your life. Since she's the one you want, you'll have to sort things out with both the Watson and the Lewis families on your own."

"I've already spoken to my parents, and I have their support," Phillip said. "I care more about the person right in front of me than about our so-called reputation or what outsiders think."

His sincere words sparked a complex look between the elders.

Hamilton hadn't expected Maddox to let Phillip get his way, fearing he'd seem unreasonable and cruel for opposing their love.
