Chapter 527

Wendy’s mother said, “H-How can you be so cruel? She’s your daughter. Don’t you feel sorry for her at all?”

Brandon said furiously, “What do you mean, I don’t feel sorry for her? I feel sorry for her, so I don’t want her to marry into such a family to suffer! I found such a good husband for her, yet she doesn’t want to marry that man but a piece of trash! She brought this onto herself!”

Wendy’s mother was frustrated. “A-Are you sure you found a good husband for her? Do you really think I don’t know what you’re scheming?

You just want the position of assistant factory manager for the sake of your own future, so you tried to curry favor with the director. His son is an idiot! Do you think Wendy will be happy if she marries him?”

Her words immediately caused a commotion amongst the onlookers.

Many people didn’t understand what was going on. After hearing this, they saw Brandon’s expression darkening.

Matthew also frowned. He thought that the family just disliked the poor and loved the rich, so he didn’t think too deeply into it.

After all, this was his daughter, and it was normal for parents to want their daughter to marry into a good family. What they were doing was the same as James and Helen, who had wanted Sasha to marry Young Master Cooper. This did not mean that they did not love their daughter.

However, what Brandon was doing now had crossed the line.

He selfishly asked his daughter to marry an idiot for the sake of his own future and disregarded his daughter’s happiness!

Exposed by his wife, Brandon couldn’t help being furious.

He slapped his wife’s face abruptly and yelled, “Bullsh*t! I’m doing this for her good. What do you know?”

Wendy’s mother wanted to refute him, but her two sons had rushed over and helped her upstairs.

“Mom, let’s talk at home. Wendy just went through something traumatising and we should get her into the house first.”

To avoid the embarrassment of a public fight, the two sons forced their mother upstairs.

As for Wendy, she was also dragged upstairs by Laura.

Ed followed behind but was directly stopped by Brandon. “Who allowed you to go upstairs? Scram!”

With his face flushed red, Ed gritted his teeth and shouted, “I won’t leave! I’m going to marry Wendy whether you agree or not!”

Ed’s reaction stunned Brandon as Ed had always been relatively cowardly.

Usually, Ed would never resist no matter how badly they treated him.

What was going on with him today?

Brandon was furious. “What did you say? Keep dreaming! My daughter won’t marry you even if she dies!”

Ed also stubbornly said, “Mr. Atkinson, I know you look down on me, but I love Wendy and I will do my best to give her a good life.”

Brandon sneered, “You? What kind of life can you give her? You want her to marry you and serve you and your sick mother? You want her to earn money to feed your family? Ed, do you know the situation you’re in? You are as good as crippled because you can’t even do labor-intensive work. How are you going to feed her?”

Ed gritted his teeth without speaking, and his eyes turned red. Brandon had touched his sore spot.

At this moment, Matthew came over and said softly, “Ed’s illness can be cured, but have you ever seen an idiot being cured?”

Brandon was infuriated. “Who do you think you are? It’s not your place to speak. This is my family’s matter, do you understand?”

Matthew said casually, “I just saved your daughter!”

Brandon was suddenly at a loss for words. Then, he immediately said furiously, “So what? She wants to marry this trash! It’d be better if she just died. Who asked you to save her? Why didn’t you just let her die?”
