If Clayton did not propose, how would they get married?
If they did not get married, what would happen with the procedures after their child was born?
For the first time, Clayton felt that although cumbersome, these formalities in Mediania were quite perfect!
It was much better than in Liberty, where children could be registered without proper procedures.
Clayton wanted to get Nicole's approval before he had the courage to go in and face Floyd's wrath.
Nicole knew what Clayton was thinking about and laughed. "As long as my father agrees, I won't have any problem with it."
She threw the problem back to Clayton.
Clayton helplessly held his forehead. This little witty devil was deliberately making things difficult for him at such a critical moment.

"Lil K, what nonsense are you spouting over there? Get your *ss in here!"
Kai answered and ran in obediently, then smiled at Floyd. "Dad, I came here to visit you in the middle of a very busy day. Did you have a good lunch?"
Director Sven, who was standing on the side, was amused and laughed. "Look at how filial your son is! I'll head back first and come back to play chess with you this afternoon."
Floyd smiled perfunctorily and waved his hand.
Kai said goodbye to Director Sven very politely.
"Goodbye, Uncle Sven. You’ve lost weight lately. Why don’t you eat something good for lunch?"
