"Miss Yeager!"
The Yeager family's descendants called out to her in reminder because Sabina had fallen into silence.
Sabina came back to her senses and put down the barbell in her hand. "I know the rules."
"That's good. I thought you didn't know about this rule, Miss Yeager! The hidden family has been passing this down for so long. Genes are very important and inheritance is paramount! That's why you should hurry up! You must give birth to your first child next year!" Alfred was at ease to hear her acknowledgement.
The other members of the Yeager family felt at ease too.
It was one of the Yeager family's superstitions. The new head of the family had to have a child a year later. It was a practice that signified that the Yeager family would have children from generation to generation.
"Yes, I know!" Sabina promised.
"That's good. As the elders, we have found ten people that we collectively decided on. They're outside the door. These people are all elites in the business world. Therefore, there is absolutely no problem in terms of height or appearance and most importantly, business genes. I'll let them come in and let you have a look!" Breathing a sigh of relief, Alfred clapped his hands.
"Don't!" Sabina stopped him instinctively.
"Miss Yeager? Are there any other problems?" Alfred had a surprised expression on his face.
Sabina fell into silence.
The Yeager family's members exchanged glances. Alfred approached her and coaxed, "Could it be that when you were let out, you found someone you liked?"
"No! There's nobody I like!" Sabina's beautiful eyes turned cold!
"What about someone you're interested in?"
"No!" repeated Sabina, her gaze growing increasingly frosty like ice.
"Are you angry?"
"No!" Sabina was indifferent.
"Oh, that's good! Since you're already the head of the family, normal men definitely can't touch you. They have to be tested in regards to their height, appearance and meet the genetic requirements. Only then can you..." Alfred elaborated a lot on that matter.
How could any man be allowed to touch the head of the Yeager family?
That was impossible!
They had to pass the Yeager family's test. Only then could they ensure that Sabina would give birth to a child with good genes.
That was why there was no choice but to do so.
"Alright! Stop talking and let them in!" Sabina wiped away the sweat on her forehead.
"Clap, clap, clap!"
Alfred clapped his hands.
The door opened and ten handsome men came in.
There were some with blond hair and blue eyes and others with black hair.
They all had the body of a standard model.
"Miss Yeager, you can choose!"
Sabina stared at them coldly. Once again, the members of the Yeager family looked at each other in dismay in her silence. Did she not like any of them?
"Miss Yeager, due to time constraints, you can just pick one today. Choose one that you find pleasing to the eye! Once today has passed, your first child will be born in ten months," explained Alfred.
"I..." Sabina shook her head and fell into silence.
"Miss Yeager, do you want to have a child after getting married? There's no problem with that. You can do the deed tonight and we can hold a wedding tomorrow! Miss Yeager, we know that it may be too sudden today. But we all came here based on the rules that were passed down from past generations. Even if you feel wronged, you still have to follow the rules!" Alfred and the others began to nag her.
"I know!" Sabina sighed. "Just pick any of them to stay behind!"
After she said that, she went to take a shower.
Alfred and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
The ten handsome men were all looking forward to it.
