Chapter 276 Are You Angry or Not?

Miranda couldn't help but burst out laughing, and Markus suddenly felt dizzy and entranced!

In that moment, he was even more head over heels for her! He wished he could divorce Miranda from Lachlan right away so he could have her all to himself. With a mocking and arrogant tone, Markus said, "You're still laughing when you haven't even paid your dowry yet? Where is it? I don't see it anywhere."

Lachlan stopped smiling and calmly replied, "I had someone send it over. It should be here soon."

"Hmph," Markus sneered. "You still need someone to bring it up? How much did you give anyway? Can't show face in front of us?"

"We're actually staying at Uncle Lowe's house for dinner tonight," Markus added teasingly.

"We want to see how much dowry you can give Miranda's family. It doesn't matter if you're just ordinary people; you should at least have some attitude." Alfred chuckled with an expression that seemed like he was waiting for Lachlan to embarrass himself.

Even Emmanuel and Cara had said that their son-in-law's family was quite ordinary. In this situation, how much dowry could Lachlan possibly give? He must be trying hard to save face in front of them.

At this point, Alfred's family wasn't afraid of provoking Emmanuel and his wife so much that they wouldn't be able to come down from their high horse.

It would be best if things escalated further until Emmanuel couldn't bear the shame anymore and wanted his daughter divorced! "Uncle Alfred and Markus, I suggest you leave now before things get too embarrassing for you later on," Mason said nonchalantly.

Hearing this remark made Alfred frown as he didn't expect Mason would say something like that.

Markus' face darkened with a hint of resentment as he retorted back at Mason, "Mason, are you also taking sides with him now? Don't forget when we were kids; you also wanted me as your brother-in-law." Mason replied irritably, "As I recall what I said earlier about wanting my sister married off has nothing do with what's happening right now! My brother-in-law is only one person - Lachlan! Markus, don't make a fool out of yourself by comparing yourself even just one finger against my brother-in-law!"

With those words spoken, Mason shook his head disdainfully while feeling amused inside just like Lachlan who wasn't angry despite hearing Markus' thoughts about his sister because both found the situation funny!

"What did you say?" Markus asked indignantly after hearing Mason's words.
