CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64 Do Not Sell My Daughter

Her lofty declarations, dreams, and aspirations for the future now seemed like mere jests.

Courtney knocked on the door, "Dad."

Mr. Sachs raised his head. The exhaustion that could not be concealed between his eyebrows, as well as his disappointment in her, "Instead of staying in your room, why are you coming to find me?"

"I can get a business marriage," Courtney said.

Mr. Sachs paused and looked at Courtney in disbelief, suspecting he misheard, and said, "What did you just say?"

Courtney fell silent for a moment and her voice was somewhat hoarse, "Only through a business marriage can we resolve the current crisis facing the Sachs family and salvage the stock market."

Mr. Sachs's mouth hung slightly open and his expression was ever-changing.

In the past, he pressured Courtney to marry in the hope that she would find a good match and lead a stable life in her rest lives.

But she talked to him about ideals, the meaning of life, poetry and distant places.

Now she suggested a business marriage of her own accord, and though unexpected, it was not what Mr. Sachs wanted. He never thought of trading his daughter's happiness for profit.

"How long will you continue messing around? Go back to your room!"

However, Courtney did not leave, "I'm not messing around. This is the quickest way to resolve our predicament. Dad, please agree with it!"

Mr. Sachs slammed what was in his hand onto the table, suddenly stood up and shouted, "How many times must I say it? Go back! Even if I, Simon Sachs, didn't do well, I wouldn't sell my daughter!"

Marriages used to be about the equal status, but later they were about negotiations and transactions. How could Courtney possibly find happiness in such a marriage?

Courtney looked at her father's furious expression, and her once-arrogant heart was now replaced with an indescribable dull ache.

She realized only now that she misunderstood her father previously.

Her dreams of soaring high were dragged back to solid ground by reality. The wings that yearned to fly were broken by the harsh winds of reality.

Courtney went back and returned to her room.

Someone sent messages on her phone. A lot of people sent messages, but she didn't open any of their messages.
