Thinking that she had heard wrongly, Sophia simply laughed it off. “Uncle Linus, you must be mistaken. How can I be that person? You’re my uncle!”

He wants to marry me? This must be a joke. Not to mention, he’s bisexual. I heard he has a bunch of ex-boyfriends.

She had even seen drawings in Sarah’s pornography book of him doing various unimaginable things as the main lead like doing explicit things with an anthropomorphic Lucky.

Sarah called that “Cethos’ Mutt Violating a North European Noble”.

However, Linus was not joking. After hesitating briefly, he continued in a serious manner, “Sophia, you know I was adopted. In this family, it doesn’t matter how much more capable and outstanding I become, as I won’t be accepted by everyone. I need to marry a woman in the Michel Family and use my status as the Michel’s son-in-law to gain a foothold in the family. I came to look for you because you don’t have a foothold in the family yet either. If we get married, it will be beneficial for both of us.”

When Sophia realized that Linus was not joking, she turned serious.

However, after hearing what he said, she also fell silent.

Getting married to Linus was unthinkable.

Linus went on, “You and Mike are divorced and won’t be remarrying for the time being. We can get married now, and if you want to remarry him in the future, we will get a divorce right away. Through this marriage, I can at least become a true member of the Michel Family. It won’t affect your remarriage with Mike. I’ve been wanting to let you take over some business here, but the board of directors still doesn’t have an accurate evaluation of your capabilities yet, so it couldn’t happen. If you marry me, you will be able to take over as soon as possible.”

When he finished talking, he fell silent and lowered his head as though he was afraid to look at Sophia.

 

She was also serious and extremely hesitant. Lifting her heels, she started to walk toward the garden.
