Married a Secret Billionaire

“Dad!” Persephone frowned. “Did I say something wrong? What you’re worried about is that if there are any rumors about Morpheus and me, it might hinder potential alliances with other families, right?

“I want to decide my marriage for myself! I’m not a pawn for alliances, and I refuse to pick someone I don’t like among these families just for the Hamertons’ benefit!”

“Quiet!” Lina glared at her. “You’re becoming more disrespectful, shouting like this at your parents!”

Persephone stopped speaking, but her chest heaved with emotions, and her hands trembled.
