Wyatt stared at her with his unfathomable eyes and then looked at Lance. "Amelia is my youngest daughter with Celeste. She's also precious to me. Celeste and I were picking suitable marriage partners for her.
Originally, I wanted her to marry into your family, but you wanted Bella, so I had to make other arrangements for Amelia. Now that Bella is dating Mr. Salvador, why don't we sit down and discuss the marriage between Christopher and Amelia? Amelia can marry Christopher once she graduates. What do you think?"
His words were like lightning that struck Amelia's head.
She trembled, pupils contracting as the color left her face. "Dad... I....."
Suddenly, Celeste grabbed Amelia's arm so hard that her fingers almost embedded into Amelia's flesh.
Amelia anxiously looked at her mother, who was shaking her head.
In the end, she could only lower her head timidly and aggrievedly, tears rolling around in her eyes.
Wyatt's suggestion to let Amelia marry Christopher reversed the crumbling relationship between the two families.
However, Christopher felt extremely anxious and excused himself, pacing back and forth on the balcony alone, emanating with resentment.
He panted heavily, and his eyes were bloodshot. His clenched fist punched the railing repeatedly, hurting himself until his hands were swollen and red. However, the pain could not suppress the burning anger in
his heart.
What should he do?
Lance's true motive was to enter into a marriage alliance with KS Group, taking over Savrow together. Even if Bella were unavailable, he would not have many complaints about Amelia as a second choice. But now, Charles was a cripple.
Wyatt would never marry his daughter to a cripple, so in the end, the marriage alliance would fall on Christopher's shoulders. But Christopher would never marry any woman other than Bella.
"Hahaha... Christopher, you've calculated and schemed, but you've fallen into your own trap. You bent backward to flatter Chairman Thompson but still ended up with nothing!"
Charles slowly limped over with the crutches, grinning widely when he saw Christopher's expression. "You dreamed of marrying Bella and did everything you could, but in the end, you still lost to Justin. "Bella had divorced Justin once. She would rather return to him than be with you. Say, how much of a failure are you? Hahaha!"
Christopher's face was pale with anger, and his fingers gripping the rail bulged with veins.
Suddenly, he recalled how Charles tried to woo Amelia during the dinner, and a plan formed in his mind.
He smiled. "Charles, do you still have the heart to mock me? Why don't you worry about yourself? You're now crippled and can't handle most of the family business Dad is losing
patience too. Your only way to turn things around is through a marriage alliance. But now, Chairman Thompson was unwilling to let you have even his worst daughter. Of course, if I were Chairman
Thompson, I would never let my daughter marry someone useless."
"Who are you calling useless? I dare you to say that again!" Charles growled with bloodshot eyes.
"Even if I can't marry the eldest daughter, marrying Amelia wouldn't be a loss to me. Either way, I'd still become Chairman Thompson's son-in-law. It doesn't matter who I marry. But you'd have to think carefully. When I marry Amelia, I'll naturally gain Dad's favor. When the time comes, will you still have a place in the Iverson Group?"
After that, Christopher smiled smugly and walked past Charles.
"Christopher! Don't celebrate too soon!"
Charles angrily slammed his crutches on the floor. "It's not up to you whether this marriage comes true!"
Christopher's lips curled sinisterly just as he left the balcony. He knew that idiot Charles, had taken the bait. "What a bargain for you, Charles."
