Chapter 394

A hint of coldness flashed across Jeremy’s eyes as he heard Marvin’s fickle remark.

‘How can someone like him be worthy of being a father?! Just what sort of family environment did Corinne grow up in?’

Jeremy narrowed his eyes frigidly and said, “First of all, you need to live up to your position as a father to my wife, and then I’ll show you respect and accept you as my father-in-law. You’ve been incompetent in your role as a father to Corinne, so to me, you’re not even worth being treated as a human.”

Marvin felt intense pressure and guilt, still wanting to argue with Jeremy. However, as soon as he met the cold eyes of his son-in-law’, he suddenly felt an unprecedented fear and hist words were stuck in his throat. His son-in-law’s attitude toward him had changed completely compared to before.
