Sean and his family members were stunned!
Mr. Peyton should be in his sixties, right? And he wants to marry a young mistress from the Smith family?
The age gap is just too wide!
On second thought, Mr. Peyton was the head of the Black clan and had significant power and wealth. It would be a blessing for anyone from the Smith family to marry him.
It would also be good news for the Smiths.
Sean's mouth curved into a smile and asked cautiously, "May I know which of my granddaughter is Mr. Peyton interested in? Who does he plan on marrying?”
Victor answered without hesitation, "The daughter of your second son, Penny Smith!"
What?
Mr. Peyton gives us all these dowries
because he wants to marry Penny?
The Smith family were utterly stupefied.
Upon noticing their reaction, Victor asked in dismay, "What's wrong? It seems like you're not happy about it.”
Sean was taken aback. He could not afford to offend the Black clan!
He immediately explained, "It's not because we're unhappy, but Penny is already married and she even had a child. I don't think she's the best candidate."
Victor snorted, "She can always get a divorce. It's up to my godfather to decide whether she's a suitable candidate for him. I only want to ask you one question now — will you approve this marriage?"
Just when Sean was about to reply to him, Victor squinted and threatened him coldly, "Mr. Smith, think properly before you answer. No one has ever rejected the Black clan's request. If you upset my godfather, the entire Smith family will be in the soup."
They were so terrified that their faces turned pale upon hearing his threat.
