Even though Magnolia's father was using all of his strength, he felt that he was hitting the rolling pin against hard steel. After that, there was a strong and violent vibration in between his thumb and index finger. He felt so much pain that he released the rolling pin immediately and he held onto his wrist as h e yelled out in pain. 2
When he looked at the rolling pin again, he realized that it was already broken into two!
This really shocked Magnolia's father. 1
This man could actually break a rolling pin into half using his bare hands. Moreover, it seemed as though the other party was not in any pain at all. This guy was obviously a well-skilled fighter at first glance! 1
How could he possibly afford to offend someone like this? What if he suffered a concussion after he punched him? Who could he reason things out with then? After all, he was just an old man with no money and no power at all. After getting beaten up, he would have no way to get anyone to avenge him either. 1
As he thought of this, he could not help but feel a little fearful of Charlie.
When Charlie saw that he was afraid to come forward, he told Claire and Magnolia, "Let’s go."
Magnolia’s father and younger brother were filled
with anger. However, they did not dare to step forward to stop them at all. 7
Magnolia's mother sat down on the ground and cried," You have no conscience at all. I must have been blind t o have raised a daughter like you! If you leave now to marry that Draco, then I'll just jump down directly from this building and fall to my death!” 8
"Mom ..." Magnolia cried as she knelt down and begged, "I beg you. Please just let me fulfill my own wishes this time. Give me two years. I'll definitely find a way to make more money for my brother so he can pay for the down payment of the house. If you agree to it, then I assure you that I'll definitely fulfil my promise to you. However, if you don't agree to my request, then there’s nothing else I can do. No matter what you do or no matter how you try to force me, I must marry Draco today for the sake of the baby in my stomach!” 1
