An arrest
Silence engulfed the room, and Mrs. Taylor frowned before she cleared her throat and said, “We trusted you and give Emma to your bastard, and you betrayed us the moment your son–“,
“He‘s not my child anymore.” Mr. Briggs coldly interrupted.
“Well, the moment he rebelled against you, you turned on our family… So how do you expect us to trust you when you have the means and ability to back out from any deal you make?”
“Well, that‘s why I drafted out a contract. Mr. Alfred is offering fifty million for the project, and if we settled on Theo marrying your granddaughter and living with you, I will offer you fifty percent of the fifty million.”
Shock by her husband‘s sudden decision that she knew nothing about, Deborah cried, “Honey–”
“Stay out of this woman.” Mr. Briggs sternly replied, shooting his wife a deadly glare , and then, his gaze shifted to Mrs.
Taylor as he added, “What do you say to such an offer?”
“Also, you wouldn‘t need to feed me like that bastard or worry about me becoming a liability in your home. After all, I am the Chief Financial Officer of my father‘s company. I have a master‘s degree and Doctorate Degree.” Theo bragged.
His titles immediately drew their attention like a mosquito is to an o blood person and also because of the offer Mr. Briggs was making, the pair were immediately sold and smiling widely at Mr. Briggs, Mrs. Taylor said, “Emma is not here, but
“We are not here for Emma!” Theo scoffed, already knowing the history behind Emma in the Taylor family.
Clearing his throat, Mr. Briggs glared at his son before looking at Mr. Taylor, saying, “We are interested in Ava, your oldest granddaughter.”
A slight frown crossed Mr. Taylor‘s face, anger boiling inside him, but he forced it aside, knowing that twenty–five million was at stake, and then he said, “The first agreement we had, I reap nothing from in it, except headaches, disrespect, and problems because my granddaughter got married to such a man that is unworthy of her. And now, you are asking me to give another of my granddaughter to you?”
A nervous look passed Mr. Briggs‘ face at Mr. Taylor‘s words as he continued, “Emma is a beautiful young lady, and another wealthy family would have been excellent to have her as their daughter–in–law, but now she‘s stuck with the child you don‘t want.”
A line formed between Deborah‘s eyebrows as she looked at her husband and then said to Mr. Taylor, “Why doesn‘t she just dumb him and remarried? it‘s only been a couple of days that they have been wedded, so what‘s the issue?” Now it was the Taylors‘ turn to feel uneasy as they exchanged glances with one another, knowing Emma already refused, and yet, they still wanted more out of the deal. “Zane had already know about our granddaughter, devaluing her worth to get married to the next suitor, and the title of a divorced woman is also degrading… Because of you, she has become corrupt.” Mr. Taylor spat.
“50.5 percent of the fifty million.” Mr. Briggs stated, giving Mr. Taylor a smug grin. “Honey,” Deborah cried.
“sixty percent.” Mrs. Taylor said. “After all, this project was supposed to be her dowry… Now, you want to use it to marry another one of our granddaughters.”
Scowling, Deborah met Madam Taylor‘s eyes, and she was about to object to such a bizarre request when her husband suddenly interrupted, “Deal. My son, Theo, is going to marry your granddaughter then.” “Who is Theo going to marry?” Zane asked, his eyes darkening at the sight of his father. As Zane led her into the room, Emma kept close by his side, seeing how her grandfather was glaring at her.
“Mr. Briggs has come to ask for my granddaughter‘s hand in marriage.” Mr. Taylor proudly uttered.
