Even Jeremiah was dumbfounded.

Stephen started in a cold voice, "I've never thought about getting Mr. Charlie back to Eastcliff. I'm just telling you objectively that Mr. Charlie is no less inferior to his father, who was so influential in Eastcliff back in those days. As for the marriage arrangement, it was Lord Wade who proposed it, not m e!" 6 "Moreover, calm down. I can assure you that Mr. Charlie has no intention of coming back at all. With my understanding of him, even if I kneel and beg him, he will not cback, let alone abandon his wife to marry the Schulz family's descendant!" 6 Everyone heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that.

He didn't want to cback? That would be awesome! Jeremiah's eyes narrowed. After pondering for a while, he said seriously, "Actually, I think if Charlie comes back, he might really succeed in marrying Sophie." 6 "Impossible!" Clayton blurted, "The Schulz family is so prestigious and prominent, they might not even be interested in Felix, who is so outstanding and charming. How could he, an uncivilized hillbilly, impress the Schulz family?!" 7 Jeremiah glared at Clayton with cold eyes and snorted, sending chills down Clayton's spine. Clayton felt as though his father had seen through his mind at one glance.

Jeremiah knew very well that Clayton belittled Charlie because he was afraid that Charlie would really cback, and even more afraid that Charlie would agree to marry Sophie Schulz.

The act of belittling Charlie creflexively because of fear. It seemed to be justified, but it was just a disguise to cover up his panic, i The rest of the family members had started to agree to Clayton's remarks for a very simple reason-Charlie's outdated and lupbringing had made him a horrible candidate as the groom of the Schulz family's descendant. 3 Clayton started with a sarcastic smirk, "Father, although Charlie is my nephew, he is called a deadbeat loser by the youngsters in Aurous Hill. How could a loser like him be at the slevel as Sophie, the elegant lady?" 5 Seeing everyone's disapproval, Jeremiah snorted and said, "Did you know that Sophie's mother, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Schulz family, was once head over heels in love with Curtis? Back then, she had pursued Curtis for many years, and she would have becthe second daughter-in-law of our family if Curtis had agreed to her pursuit. Until today, she still visits Curtis's grave annually without fail. She who loves the tree loves the branch. Do you understand?" 9 A loud shocked gasp echoed across the conference room.

m It was only then that Clayton remembered those past events.

Back then, Curtis was the godlike existence in Eastcliff that many young girls from rich and prominent families, including Sophie's mother, dreamed of marrying, even if it meant being his mistress. On the contrary, the men were jealous of Curtis to the point of hating him, including him as his brother. 6

If what Jeremiah had said was true regarding Sophie's mother loving marriage between Charlie Curtis, and Sophie could actually set sail...
