I gulped, swallowing down my next words.
Tyler held Susan's hand tightly, and I noticed the firmness in his expression for the first time. "I won’t have any other women in my life except Susan. If you can’t accept her and introduce her to the public, then you should be prepared for the family to be without heirs."
He owed Susan too much and could only repay her with his life.
However, if Susan could not be given an official status, it would also be unfair to her.
I grabbed the sofa, hesitating whether I should do as Cole said.
As for the Schuman couple, they were so angry that they could not speak when they heard what Tyler said.
Tyler's parents died young, and Carlson and Yvonne were the only ones left in the Schumans.
They had no children and treated Tyler as their own. It was natural for them to be angry now that he had said something like this.
I hurriedly reassured them. "Ty is just being hasty. Don’t take it to heart. You guys actually like Susan very much, right? Why bother with those rules and regulations if you do? As long as you’re willing to think outside the box, everything will be fine."
"Easier said than done." Carlson sighed. He wiped his face, hesitance showing on it. "How can someone within the political world have even the slightest dirt on them? They’ll be in all likelihood forced to step aside if found out."
"Give it up, then. It's time for the two of you to retire and enjoy your blessings. You can take care of the child at home and travel when you have time. Won’t life be more carefree?" I said easily.
Carlson glanced at me and boomed, "Ridiculous! How can you say such a thing?!"
