Chapter 79
Lance refrained from directly inquiring about the matter between him and Scarlett, out of respect for her as a raised by his second brother
However, unwilling to let go of Dey who had not kept his promise, lie took advantage of Miss Wen’s sil
Dey wasn’t mad at Lance, but his gaze was icy “My tather made the marriage decision without consult intended to wed your sister. Please don’t take it to heart. Seventh Young Master”
me I never
Lance’s face paled and his beautiful visage suddenly darkened upon hearing. “So, you’re saying you want to call off the engagement”
“We’ve never been betrothed before, so how can we call off the engagement Dev smiled faintly.
They had discussed marriage, but nothing had been finalized.
Furthermore, without the agreement of both parties, how could a marriage be arranged unilaterally?
In front of the multitude. Dey’s words were undeniably a slap in the face to the Jackman Lamily
Lance was accustomed to socializing with common guys and was not equipped to handle Dey’s deep and sophisticated temperament
He wanted to give Sebastian a gentle lesson, but before he could even roll up his sleeves, he was stopped
“Seventh Brother”
The man, with a faint but arrogant look, sat in the seat of honor, stunning everyone present
As befitting the sole heir of the Jackman family, his aura was overpowering.
Sebastian gazed at Dey indifferently, his voice devoid of any warmth, rehoing through the hall
“Back then, it was your father who came to ask for marriage. If you wish to witlulraw, just go the same way your father pleaded for marriage then”
The word “plead” brought everyone back to reality
The Gatsby family actually wanted to kiss up to the Jackman family.
Previously, they had believed that the two families intended to ollaborate
It seemed that the Gatsby family was in the same boat, having to resort to selling their children in order to maintain their standing
Everyone snorted disdainfully, their eyes betraying their forgetfulness of their inferiority to Gatsby Group in terms of background, strength, and status.
Dev accepted everyone’s criticisms calmly and also embraced Sebastian’s proposal.
“Be assured, Mr. Jackman, my father will take care of thus situation effectively”
He set out to search for Scarlett.
Gazing at his back, Lance was so enraged that his face turned green. “It’s best to move on. Could my sister find a better one?”
“Indeed, Seventh Young Master’s sister is truly remarkable. It’s a real shame that Mr. Gatsby isn’t interested in her
“None of your business.” Lance shot him a frosty look.
Old Master Wen thought to himself, “Forget it, this person is so discourteous. It appears Dev is preferable.”
Gazing through the French window in the hall, Sebastian spotted Dev heading towards the dining area in the distance, as if searching for someone.
He spun around a few times, then answered a call and headed for the bathroom
