After Lilian had spoken, she rushed off into the crowd and said to Draco, "Come quick! Follow me to greet your future father-in-law. I'm warning you, if you spoil my plans, your father and I will never forgive you!" 7
Draco was infuriated. "I've already told you, I'm cutting all ties with you. What future father-in-law are you talking about?!" 1
Magnolia felt a tightening feeling in her chest as she looked at Draco and asked, "Draco, what is this all about?”
In the spur of the moment, Draco shouted angrily, "My parents have gone crazy from greed! They desperately want me to marry this big boss’s daughter, and they want me to marry into the other family. There was also a rumor saying that their daughter was pregnant with a mixed-race man’s baby, and they want her to give birth to it." 2
After saying those words, everyone, including Magnolia, Claire, and Charlie, were stunned. Even the rest of the Scotson family were shocked by the news! 7
Charlie finally understood the situation. This husband and wife were willing to sell off their son to marry into another family for money. Wasn’t Draco their flesh and blood? How could they do such a thing?! 7
Lilian couldn't endure it any longer. She yelled, "Draco!
I am telling you, this is not the time to be ignorant! The dowry is fifty million dollars!"
The Scotson family was taken aback by the crazy sum of dowry. Fifty million dollars?! They couldn't believe someone was willing to pay that ridiculous sum just t o marry someone's son. 1
Hans Scotson, who was Draco’s paternal cousin, spoke up, "Second Aunt, since Draco is unwilling, why don’t you let me handle this? For fifty million dollars, be it a mixed-race man's child or an alien's child, I wouldn’t even mind it." 2
Lilian arched her eyebrow. "Stop dreaming. This has nothing to do with you. Their family wants to marry m y son, Draco!" 7
After saying that, she looked at Draco and began scolding him in a harsh tone, "Did you see that? Everyone would have jumped at the given opportunity. Only you... are unwilling to do it. Your father and I have been working diligently all our lives. How in the world did we give birth to a dumb son like you?!" 1
Draco replied coldly, "Since Cousin Brother is so interested in it, let him go for it. I am definitely not going!" 7
