Chapter 2 Unexpected Marriage

Vera thought to herself, 'Is this old man blind?'

Shawn may be old, but his heart was not.

He understood that the Linister family didn't want their daughter to marry so early, but Vera was destined to be his daughter-in-law.

"I think August 15th is a good day. Let's set the wedding date for that day."

Not only did this meal fail to change the Olteran family's attitude, but even the wedding date was decided.

Vera said to Warren and Brianna, "I agree."

“Vera ”Brianna was very worried about this forced marriage.

They were supposed to meet and get to know each other today, but only Shawn and his eldest son Vincent Olteran showed up. None of the women did.

Even the groom, Patrick, didn't even make a phone call.

Warren felt that Vera had been wronged. "We do not agree. I will go and annul the marriage later," he said.

He thought, 'She's my only precious daughter. Why should she marry Patrick, who is eight years older than her and who is not respected by the Olteran family? Even if the Olteran family is powerful, I can give up my company. I have only one daughter. Her marriage is about her lifelong happiness.'

Brianna also exclaimed, "Yes, we make money to provide a better life for our children. Now our money has become a burden. We can do without it."

Warren and Brianna made up their minds and drove home.

Vera was moved to tears.

She thought, 'How can I bear to let my parents give up years of effort? We can do without everything. But what about my brother? I can't be so selfish.'

In the president's office of the Olteran Group, a handsome man was working at his desk. His sternness could be felt from afar. His eyes were sharp, his forehead wide, his nose high, and his face resolute.

Shawn walked in, but Patrick only glanced at him before returning to his work.

Shawn sat on the sofa and informed directly, "Your wedding date is August 15th."

Patrick's hand paused as he signed, his body didn't move. He raised his head again to look at Shawn on the sofa.

Shawn picked up the coffee cup on the table, brought it to his lips, and elegantly took a sip of coffee. "I know you have been insisting on something for these years. But even your mother in heaven wouldn't want to see you remain unmarried."

Then, Shawn continued, "Your wedding date has already been set. The bride is from the Linister family, her name is Vera, and she's a very special girl. She's 20 years old and still a student."

"20? Let me give her to Randall," Patrick sneered, directly mentioning his nephew, Randall Olteran!

"Patrick, you're such a jerk! She's your wife. You can't give her to your nephew!" Shawn always got angry when talking to Patrick.

Patrick's words and actions were always against Shawn, so Shawn usually didn't want to see Patrick.

Patrick said, "Then how about letting the one who made the decision to marry Vera actually marry her?"

"Patrick!" Shawn was once again infuriated by Patrick.

"This time, it's not up to you. We have prepared gifts. Get ready to meet the Linister family. I warn you, Patrick, even if you die, you still have to marry."

Patrick's eyes were fierce. He coldly said, "That's impossible!"

Looking at Patrick's resistance, Shawn directly said, "If you get married, I will tell you everything about her."

This time, Patrick felt surprised.

He knew who "her" referred to.

Patrick squinted his eyes and said, "Are you investigating her too?"

Shawn no longer drank his coffee and stood up, saying, "August 15th is your wedding day. Get ready."

Time flew by, and the wedding day quickly arrived.
