Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 446

Chapter 446 I'll Crush You in Every Aspect!

"Oh? There's this matter too? It must be a misunderstanding," Erik said calmly, showing no particular reaction to Jude "exposing" Lachlan.

Jude's expression froze at the sight of this.

The next second, he signaled Edward with his eyes.

Edward nodded and then turned to Erik. "Erik, don't you care about what kind of man Kiera ends up with? How can this guy be worthy of her? In my opinion, Mr. Smith is the best match for Kiera because he truly loves her."

Erik shook his head noncommittally and asked sarcastically, "What? Did the family send you here just to worry about who Kiera marries?"

Edward's eyes flickered a few times as he spoke in a deep voice. "Erik, that is indeed one of the reasons why I came here. If Kiera can marry into the Smith family, it would be a great thing for the family."

Hearing this made Erik snort coldly and mockingly ask, "A good thing for the family? Which family are you talking about? Yours or mine?"

Kiera couldn't help but show anger on her pretty face when she heard these words. She sneered and said, "You are really good at scheming! You want to form an alliance with the Smiths but use me as your tool for marriage?! Why are you so shrewd?"

Edward's eyes flickered as he looked at Erik, his tone carrying a hint of condescension. "Erik, I hope you understand the situation! My grandfather said that as long as Kiera agrees to marry Mr. Smith, we can consider allowing your branch to return to the main family and relocate back to Iylonio."

"Our two families were originally one family! We were one of the five major noble families in Iylonio. However, due to the disagreement between the two patriarchs, we split apart."

Erik's branch was excluded by his elder brother, Anders Ward, and they moved away from Iylonio to Edoland. However, despite winning the internal power struggle, Anders' branch of the Ward family suffered greatly from the split. Their overall strength was no longer comparable to the other five major noble families in Iylonio. Over the years, they had been at a disadvantage in the power struggles within Iylonio, continuously weakening their power.

So, the Ward family in Iylonio wanted to form an alliance with the Smith family to gain their support and stabilize their position among the five major noble families. When the Smith family's eldest son, Jude, took an interest in Kiera, the Ward family in Iylonio started scheming.

Their behavior was truly shameless. The Ward family in Iylonio wanted to form an alliance with the Smith family, using the young descendants of the Ward family in Edoland as marriage tools. It was no wonder Kiera was so angry!

Erik snorted and his expression turned dark. "No need! Our branch is living quite comfortably in Edoland and we have no interest in returning to Iylonio. Go back and tell your grandfather that he already has a granddaughter, and whoever wants to marry into the Smith family can, but don't dare have any thoughts about my granddaughter! Hmph!"

Upon hearing this, Edward's face turned unpleasant, and Jude looked embarrassed and unwilling. In the next moment, Jude glared at Lachlan and said to Erik, "Mr. Ward, even if Kiera doesn't marry me, should she just be with any man? How can this swindler, who deceives and cheats, be worthy of Kiera?"

As Lachlan stood there, a sharp look flashed in his eyes. Although he was just a shield and didn't have any substantial relationship with Kiera, he felt a sense of dissatisfaction being criticized as unworthy. "How am I unworthy of Kiera? Fatso, tell me, what makes you better than me?" Lachlan asked mockingly.

Hearing this, Jude's chubby face trembled, and he angrily pointed at Lachlan. "Who are you calling fatso? You're asking for trouble! Look at yourself in the mirror before criticizing others. Can you compare to me? I am..."
