The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 984

Pretending to ponder for a moment, Godfrey put on a troubled face and said, "Coincidentally, Finnian came by today with the same thing in mind-talking about marriage. And he mentioned his favorite protégé."

He almost stumbled over his words but managed to keep his composure.

After all, today's star was his dear little Leopold.

As long as today's event went smoothly, he could retire in peace.
