Sebastian glanced at her indifferently and said, "Aunt, you gotta be kidding. My mom has been dead for years, and her dowry was only left to you to manage, not to be given to you! It's only natural for a mother-in-law's dowry to be inherited by her daughter-in-law. I, as her son, don’t even have a problem with it, so what right do you have to disagree?"
Sebastian's aunt wanted to complain, but she held it back.
She wanted to say: It's her dowry! Hers!
Angela felt so wronged...but she dared not say it out loud, or else she would be the one embarrassed.
Oh, how she regretted it! But it was too late for that now.
Stephanie asked in surprise, "Silver Fox...is that really okay?"
"I call the shots. All those things were my mom's dowry, and after she died, I inherited them...I can give them to whoever I want."
Stephanie smiled.
She smiled such a big smile that her lively yet swollen eyes were almost like slits.
She said, "Silver Fox...you're so good to me. No matter what happens in the future...I'll always, always be with you."
Sebastian cast a complicated look at her and said, "Stephanie, remember what you said today."
"I'll remember! So, Silver Fox, when you asked me earlier if I had thought it through, my answer is yes...I want to be the First Lady of the Skyline Corporation!"
Sebastian almost burst out laughing.
Not wanting to be his wife, but the First Lady of Skyline Corporation...
Forget it, why bother arguing with a little girl?
He smirked, "Alright."
Jaxon smirked too, "Finished talking?"
Sebastian replied, "Done."
"Can I say something now?"
When Stephanie heard Sebastian saying all this in front of everyone, she couldn't help but blush and lowered her head, not daring to look at anyone.
After a long while, Jaxon suddenly stood up and said, "Sebastian, come with me to the study."
"Sorry, Grandpa, I don't feel comfortable leaving her here alone."
Jaxon said irritatedly, "Then bring her along!"
"Alright."
Stephanie and Sebastian followed Jaxon up to his personal study in the Ingram family's house.
Behind them, people stared at them with various complicated gazes until their figures disappeared from sight.
In the living room, after they had left, Aaron angrily slammed the wall with his hand. His eyes looked extremely malicious, as if they were being corroded by venom.
Seeing this, Brenda pulled on his wrist and said, "Bear it for now. We'll discuss it in detail once everything's over."
