After listening to the calculations, Mr. Scotson immediately made up his mind.
He turned to face his son and spoke, "Draco, it'll be a waste if you don't pick this wife. Not only did they not request for a dowry, but instead, they are offering you tens of millions worth of dowry. This is an amazing chance!" 6
Draco replied coldly, "Yes. It is very good indeed. It seems as though you don't mind having a mixed-blood grandson." 10
Turk said without a shred of embarrassment, "After giving me fifty million dollars? I don't mind at all! So what if it's a mixed-blood grandson? For fifty million dollars, I don't even mind if my son turns out to be of mixed-blood!” 6
Draco snapped back, "Stop wasting your saliva. I am not agreeing to the wedding.” 1
Turk sighed. His face was stern and his tone was firm. "My son. You're really lacking in experience. You still don’t understand how things work. You've never experienced the pain of having no money. I really should have made you live a few days of suffering when you were younger to toughen you up. That way, you'd know how valuable money is and how difficult i t is to earn it!" 7
"You're right!" Lilian agreed. "That is true. It is very hard to earn money! Fifty million dollars doesn't just simply present itself to you. Can you imagine how difficult it is to earn fifty million dollars? Are you even sure that you can get that much money in the future? I f one day you look back and regret your decision, please don't blame your mother for not telling you to d o the right thing!” 2
Without hesitating, Draco replied, "No matter what you say, I won't agree to this marriage."
"Won't agree?" Lilian repeated. "You don't want to agree, am I right? Since you don't want to agree to it, I will never let Magnolia into our family! And you... You can leave this house too!" 9
Draco promptly replied, "I will leave. I have been thinking of that for a while now!" 1
"You..." Lilian fumed. "If you leave, I will terminate your credit cards! In the future, don’t you even dare to think of taking any money from this family ever again!” 1
Draco looked at his mother. "Don't worry. I won't take any money from you. I will look for a job with Magnolia, and we will work hard to make a living and pay for our own rent. We will live our lives with whatever money we have! I will be satisfied with just that!" 1
