“Mother, what are you talking about? I chose this myself, and I regret nothing. Just so you know, I feel that Fane is so much better than Young Master Clark and Young Master Wilson!” Irked by her mother’s behavior, Selena rolled her eyes at Fiona and walked past her to get inside.
“Hmph!” Fiona looked at Fane, obviously displeased. Everything happened because Fane was incapable as a provider, and others had looked at their family with disdain. While their lives had changed for the better, they could have had that luxury and happiness even from back then.
Fiona brusquely walked inside, silently as she did. Andrew’s lips curled into an awkward and sheepish smile as he patted Fane’s shoulder. “Fane, don’t take it too seriously. This is how she is. She’s not a bad person; she’s just hoping that Selena would have a good life.”
Fane smiled bitterly and nodded. “Don’t worry, Father-in-law, I won’t let you guys down! I don’t care that much about the Gold family or Clark family either!”
Fane’s reply made the corners of Andrew’s mouth twitched. He intended to comfort Fane and alleviate his mood, but he never thought that such proud words would come out in reply instead.
This disappointed Andrew; he felt that Fane was not down-to-earth enough. Fane just could not compete with others but he did not want to admit to it.
A heavy sigh escaped Andrew’s lips before he walked toward the villa’s entrance.
