Reborn From Ashes novel Chapter 451

"Maybe, just maybe, you could actually fall for each other and realize that this is the person you're meant to be with in the future?" Francis' words softened, his gaze sincere as he looked at Julia and Anna.

It almost felt like he was wholeheartedly invested in his daughters' happiness.

"I…"

Julia and Anna hesitated, and they exchanged a glance. The request didn't seem so unreasonable now.

"But what if neither of them likes the person you introduce them to?" Charlotte suddenly asked, her voice sharp.

That damned woman!

Francis shot a glare at Charlotte, anger flashing in his eyes. But he quickly controlled himself and turned his gaze back to Julia and Anna, his expression softening with a hint of concern.

"Well, that's simple," he said with a smile. "If you don't like them, then you don't like them. You can just refuse to marry them. That's all.

"I'm just arranging a marriage for you and introducing you to people. If you don't like them, do you think I'll force you to marry them?" He chuckled.

"Well, if that's the case… we can accept it." Julia and Anna sighed in relief, feeling less resistant to the idea now. They felt like they'd regained a sense of freedom.

The atmosphere in the hall finally grew quiet as the tension lifted.

"Julia, Anna, Dad is doing this for your own good. You can trust his judgment! If those two guys dare to treat you badly, I swear I'll make them pay. I'll protect you both! I won't let anyone take advantage of my two amazing sisters!" Morgan declared, his tone firm as his expression grew serious.
