The Shaw family, though formidable, still lagged significantly behind the four prominent families in Eastonia.Members of the Shaw family, particularly Jack's brother, Malcomn, and his son George were eager to leverage their ties with the Scott family to ascend socially and gain substantial benefits.Only Melrose wore a troubled expression; she knew her daughter liked Mike. She had previously covertly allowed Jane to escape to Hodbridge in pursuit of Mike.Reluctantly, Jack agreed to the arrangement for the sake of the family's interests.Jane kept her head down, typing away on her phone screen, sending numerous messages to Mike.Mike had not responded despite her efforts, and the family discussions were nearing conclusion without his arrival, leaving her increasingly uneasy.Even though she understood Mike's family lacked the power to intervene decisively, how could he not at least attempt to challenge that situation? Perhaps the assurances of his influential brother-in-law were

"Father, are you really going to ignore my future and force me to my death?" Jane stared at her father with tears in her eyes, her voice tinged with anger.Jack looked embarrassed, but the family's intentions were clear. It was also about safeguarding the family's interests. Otherwise, the consequences of offending the Scott family would be too dire.He said helplessly, "I'm not forcing you, but Young Master Scott is the best match for you.""That's right, Jane. Young Master Scott is young, handsome, and talented. Many girls from prominent families in Eastonia would wish to marry him but won't have the chance. Don't be fooled by that useless guy," Malcomn said immediately."Yes, Jane. The Miller family is just a small family, and Mike is nothing but garbage. You will never achieve anything in your life if you're with him," George said emphatically.However, Jane shook her head and said, "I don't care. I only love Mike, and I want to marry him."Henry was secretly surprised. He ha

Everyone was slightly stunned, including Jack, but he still took the tablet from Henry. His expression turned extremely grim as he viewed the contents inside.Most troubling of all, there was more than one woman involved. Nathan was revealed as a pervert. While Jack had heard rumors of Nathan's youth and fickleness before, he had hoped for change in the future, but the reality was far worse than he had imagined.At that moment, Melrose stood up, her expression drastically changing upon seeing the tablet's contents. Even though Jack quickly turned off the video, her gaze hardened.'I will never allow my daughter to marry someone like Nathan, no matter what. Otherwise, her life will be ruined.'Jack swiftly deleted the video and returned the tablet to Henry, speaking in a low voice, "Thank you for the video. I've deleted it. I hope you don't have a backup."He glared at Nathan. "Otherwise, not even God can save you!"Henry was stunned. 'What did he mean? Was he trying to protect Na

Nathan sneered viciously, taking a step forward. "You'll regret this soon enough. Don't come crawling to me begging for mercy when the time comes," he taunted, laughing.Hearing Nathan's mocking words, before Mike could respond, Jane interjected anxiously, "Father, you—""Jane, what happens next isn't within my control. He claims he can protect himself; now it's up to his own abilities," Jack interrupted firmly."What abilities do you expect him to have? He's from an ordinary family. How can he stand up to the Scott family?" Jane asked."Jane, enough. You know the power of the Scotts. I'm staking the Shaw family's fate on this."Melrose finally spoke up, shaking her head. "It's up to him now. If he can survive this, I'll support you two being together. But ever since you two started dating, he's been destined to face the Scott family. If he can't overcome this, you'll have no future."Jane grimaced, realizing the Shaw family could not help her. She turned to Mike urgently. "Mike,

"Look at how nervous you are. How can you propose to Jane if you're such a coward?"Henry shook his head. "I just wanted to ask—when will your father arrive?""It'll be within half an hour." Though his father was not far, there was still quite a distance to cover.His father had promised to come immediately, showing no intention of deploying additional forces against Henry."Half an hour? That's too slow," Henry sighed, shaking his head.Everyone smiled bitterly. They had seen people courting death, but never someone so eager to meet their demise. Wesley's arrival would likely spell a miserable end for Henry.Henry paid no mind to their incredulous looks. He glanced at the table and said, "Since we have time and plenty of delicious fruit here, let's all take a seat and eat leisurely. We'll wait patiently."Taking a seat, he poured himself some tea and began munching on nuts, inviting Mike and Lydia to join him.Mike escorted Jane and Lydia to the table, and they all settled in
