Reborn with Nothing but My Farm and Vengeance in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 486

Chapter 486: Chapter 486: Selling a Daughter

Hearing Melody Summers say this, Caleb Summers’s expression completely darkened.

Zoe Kane, on the other hand, was overcome with a sense of injustice and resentment.

If it weren’t for her in-laws’ refusal to take in her family, her sister and mother wouldn’t have died in the snow disaster, and Howard Fletcher wouldn’t have become an orphan, forced to live under someone else’s roof!

Zoe Kane didn’t understand why Melody Summers would speak about Howard Fletcher that way.

’Are these in-laws all heartless? Don’t they feel even a shred of guilt for the deaths of my family members?’

’How can such cold-hearted, cold-blooded people exist in this world?!’

Just as Zoe Kane was about to say something to Melody Summers, Howard Fletcher, who was standing beside her, suddenly turned to Caleb Summers and shouted, "Dad, I don’t like this bad woman! Since she won’t acknowledge me as her brother, I don’t want her as my sister! Dad, why don’t you marry her off to Mr. Sheffield too?"

Howard Fletcher’s words struck like a clap of thunder, stunning everyone in the living room.

Melody Summers was completely baffled. ’Mr. Sheffield?’

Zoe Kane quickly covered Howard Fletcher’s mouth and whispered into his ear, "Leo! Don’t talk nonsense!"

’We can’t let the cat out of the bag now. What if Nina finds out and refuses to go back with us?’

But Howard Fletcher had a temper. He smacked away the hand Zoe Kane had clamped over his face, pointed at Nina Summers, and yelled, "I’m not talking nonsense! My dad said he’s going to marry her to Mr. Sheffield!"

Although Howard Fletcher was young, he was precocious. He understood the adults’ conversations and knew that being married off to that Mr. Sheffield was definitely not a good thing.

He then pointed his small hand at Melody Summers and said with a malicious tone, "You bad woman! Since you won’t acknowledge me, I won’t acknowledge you! I’m going to make my dad marry you off to that bald Mr. Sheffield too!"

Hearing Howard Fletcher’s words, Melody Summers suddenly remembered something. During the heatwave two years ago, Caleb Summers’s family had come to her door to propose a match. The groom they mentioned back then seemed to be called "Sheffield."

’I can’t believe two years have passed in the blink of an eye, and this ’Sheffield’ still isn’t married?’

Melody Summers didn’t understand, but Nina Summers, standing to the side, knew exactly what was going on.

Nina Summers’s eyes widened. She stared at Caleb Summers in disbelief and asked in shock, "Dad... is what he’s saying true? You... you’re going to marry me to Winston Sheffield’s third uncle?!"

Faced with Nina Summers’s shocked and incredulous expression, Caleb Summers’s gaze shifted evasively. He rubbed his nose awkwardly and said in a low voice, "Let’s talk about this when we get home..."

Seeing Caleb Summers’s guilty look, Nina Summers knew everything. ’What Howard Fletcher said was all true!’

Even though she had been disappointed in her father thousands of times, hearing that he was going to marry her off to Jim Sheffield still sent a chill through Nina Summers’s heart.

She stared blankly at Caleb Summers, shaking her head repeatedly as if in disbelief. "Dad, how could you do this? Winston Sheffield’s third uncle is over fifty years old, and four of his wives have died... Aren’t you just pushing me into a pit of fire?"
