Chapter 790
Mack had been observing Cassian’s expression all this while. He guessed that the brat did not know about the Cloudshadow Sect at all, nor did he knows how powerful the Cloudshadow Sect’s Lady Valor was. As Mack was worried that the brat would regret it, he did not tell the brat the truth,
“You came from the lower realm, so it’s understandable that you don’t know about the Cloudshadow Sect. Let me tell you then. The Cloudshadow Sect is the most powerful faction in Frihamen City. Even the people from Deariton have to accord Lady Valor some courtesy.
“Lady Valor has taken a fancy to Felipe and wants to marry him. However, because of the heart surgery Incident, I felt that the Cherry family had let you down. That was why I was thinking of letting you take Felipe’s place and marry Lady Valor so that you could lead a good life.
“Since you’re unwilling to marry her, I can only follow Lady Valor’s wishes and let Felipe marry
her.”
After listening to Mack, Cassian remained unmoved. “Since Felipe wants to get married so badly, just let him marry her. I don’t care about this Lady Valor,
whoever she is.”
Mack nodded repeatedly, but a hint of disdain flashed across his
eyes.
Hmph! These people from the lower realm were so short–sighted. He actually gave up his bright future for a bitch who came from the lower realm just like him.
However, Cassian’s decision was exactly what Mack wanted. When such a golden opportunity dropped on the Cherry family’s lap, they had to take full advantage of it.
“Alright then. At first, I wanted to make it up to you, but since you’re unwilling, I can’t force you. Now, I can only let Felipe marry Lady Valor.
“Actually, you’re well qualified to be the son–in–law of a wealthy family. It’s a pity you’re too stubborn and wasted our good intentions.”
By now, Cassian finally understood why these two characters changed their previous arrogant attitude and took the initiative to apologize to him. It turned out that they wanted to use him as a tool in some marriage deal.
“Since you guys have already planned everything, just let Felipe marry her. Isn’t this what he dreamed of? Moreover, my surname isn’t Cherry, and I have nothing to do with your Cherry family. All of you don’t have to worry about me.”
With that, Cassian got up from the bed and left the room without hesitation.
“Cassian! Cassian!” When Tuesday saw Cassian walking off, she turned to look at Mack in shock.
“Dad, are you planning to let Felipe take Cassian’s place to marry Lady Valor?” She never expected Mack to come up with such a brazen idea.
“Hmph! Actually, I wanted Cassian to marry her, but do you think he would listen to us and marry her obediently?”
Mack gave a scornful snort and continued, “Now that the Cloudshadow Sect’s Lady Valor has stipulated that she wants to marry our male offspring, if we don’t comply, our entire family will be in trouble.
“You have heard it yourself just now. Cassian said that his life has nothing to do with our family and doesn’t want us to interfere. Moreover, he doesn’t acknowledge you as his mother and doesn’t want to marry Lady Valor. Do you want to take the risk of the Cloudshadow Sect taking revenge against us by telling them that Cassian rejected their marriage proposal?”
Tuesday’s expression changed drastically. She quickly shook her head. “No, that’s not what I meant.”
The old man continued, “Since Cassian is unwilling to go, why can’t we let Felipe take his place? Anyway, Lady Valor has never met Cassian before.
“Tuesday, don’t forget your place here. Felipe is also your biological son. Don’t you want him to have a good future?
“Right now, it is not us taking away Cassian’s chance to make a name for himself by not letting him marry her. He’s the one who doesn’t cherish this opportunity. We can’t let our entire Cherry family be implicated by him. We can’t risk offending the Cloudshadow Sect by rejecting the marriage proposal, can we?”
