The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1280

As the voices were drowned out by the silence, Draco immediately spoke up, "Uncle Morningstar, I am very sorry but I can't marry your daughter. I already have the love of my life, and I am only going to marry her." 6

"What game are you playing at?" Zell Morningstar bellowed with arched brows as he glared at Lilian. "I even brought my daughter here and now... you do this?! Are you playing me as a fool? Or are you trying t o take this opportunity to force me to increase the dowry?" 6

"No! No!" Lilian quickly shook her hands in reply. In a guilty voice, she said, "Mr. Morningstar, I dare not take you as a fool. This son of mine, he is... mentally challenged! I am currently lecturing him!" 1

Draco immediately intervened, "You don't have to lecture me anymore, I'm leaving now!" 1

Lilian shouted, "You dare?! If you walk out today, I will break your legs!"

Charlie, who had tried to keep his mouth shut for the day, finally lost his cool. He turned to Lilian and said impatiently, "Old hag, if you still persist with this nonsense, I will take action!" 8

Lilian immediately pointed at Charlie, turned to look a t Zell Morningstar, and blurted, "Mr. Morningstar, this twerp is the one who's been trying to brainwash my

son. If it wasn’t for him, my son would have agreed to the marriage. Please be patient and give me some time to handle this!” i

Zell Morningstar felt frustration building up inside of him. He couldn’t wait any longer for his daughter to walk down the red carpet with Draco and settle this issue once and for all.

Due to his impatience, he couldn't tell that Lilian was trying to pin the blame on Charlie. Zell turned to Charlie and said, "Twerp! If you were to spoil my daughter's marriage plans, I will crush you!"

Charlie sneered, "Why are you so desperate to marry off your yam-looking daughter? Is she really that desperate to get married?" s

With gritted teeth, Mr. Morningstar ground out, "If I were you, I would pick my next sentence very carefully." 1

Turk quickly ran toward them as he saw Charlie and M r. Morningstar arguing. He then turned to Mr. Morningstar and said, "In-law, please don't bother with this little twerp. He has not seen the world yet. It’ll be bad for your health to get angry over this inexperienced child." i

After trying to calm Mr. Morningstar down, Turk turned to Charlie. "Twerp, I don't know you, nor do you know me. I don't want to meddle with your affairs, so I hope that you will stop meddling with my family's affairs. Today, my son will marry Mr. Morningstar’s daughter. So please, stop trying to intervene and leave!" "That's right!" Lilian exclaimed. "This is our family affair! You, as an outsider, know nothing of what's happening! So, please leave! Stop interfering with my son's wedding!" 6
