Chapter 118
After her outburst, she looked at Liam apologetically. “It may seem like I'm sticking my nose into business that isn't mine, but I'm really thinking for the good of the Hamilton family. Wouldn't you think so?
He nodded after a short silence. “Yes, I sure would.”
Thea seemed to be encouraged by his words and continued to speak enthusiastically. “I only learned about this when I went to visit Ms. Watson at the hospital today. I wanted to talk to her about leaving Kenneth, but you have no idea what she told me next.”
“What did she say?”
“She said that if she wanted to marry into the Hamilton family, not only would you not resist, but you would want her to do just that!” Thea said, observing Liam's expression closely.
He frowned. “Did she really say that?”
Thea nodded. “Yes! I can swear on it.”
“Did she say that she was going to marry into the Hamilton family?”
She nodded again.
Liam stood up abruptly. “I have to go ask her myself!”
Thea hurriedly stood up as well. “The problem is that Kenneth is all engrossed in her and he isn't even in his right mind now. I only came to tell you so that you could talk to him about it. But if you go now, you might not like his reaction.”
“Who cares about his reaction? If he really can marry Nat again, I'll let him do whatever he wants!” Liam said enthusiastically.
What?
Thea stood there, stunned silent. Did I mishear him?
She looked at Liam in confusion. “W-what did you just say?”
He looked at her as he spoke. “You really shouldn't have to worry so much about Kenneth or the Hamilton family, young lady. However, Nat is right. If she really wanted to marry into our family again, I would welcome her with open arms!”
“Don't you care about her having a daughter?” Thea asked as she was shocked.
“I wouldn't mind even if she had a son!” he replied.
Thea was stunned silent once again.
Am I crazy or has Old Mr. Hamilton gone mad? Maybe the whole world has gone mad!
Her jaw was still hanging open in disbelief.
Liam started to walk out and she chased after him, still adamant that he hadn't understood her. “Old Mr. Hamilton, did you actually hear what I just said?”
Liam sighed and nodded at her relentlessness. “Yes, I heard you. I heard you loud and clear.” “S-so what's this then? Are you willing to let the Hamilton family be embarrassed just for that woman?” Thea asked.
She knew how much of a stickler for tradition Liam had always been. Why is he acting so strangely this time around?
Is Natasha really that good at winning people over?
Liam suddenly scoffed and his gaze became strict as he looked at Thea. “If that's the case, then who do you think wouldn't embarrass the Hamilton family, Ms.
Jarman?”
Thea was shocked and began to stutter, “W-well, I-” Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
“Do you think you would be a better choice?”
“That's not what I meant,” she said as she frantically shook her head.
“Ms. Jarman, don't assume that I'm blind to your feelings toward him. I know you only came to me in hopes that I would stop them. However, I must tell you this. If you manage to win Kenneth over, good for you, but the Hamilton family isn't that easy to marry into. No matter who he gets with, I'll only accept Natasha as my granddaughterin-law!” Liam said in determination.
“B-but why?” Thea asked, still in disbelief.
Am I worse than a woman with a kid?
Liam smiled. “Just so you know, I don't believe any of the rubbish you spouted just now. I know who Nat is much more than you do, and I also know that you've already lost to her just based on moral standing alone.”
He spoke clearly, not leaving any space for her to doubt him.
Thea's pale face began to turn splotchy and red.
“Also, before you try to twist the facts next time, you should at least get things clear first. If not, you'll only make a joke of yourself.” With that, Liam walked away without even sparing a glance at her.
Thea stood there, rooted to the spot. Her face was redder than a ripe tomato.
She had basically just dug herself a hole and jumped right into it!
Despite that, she just couldn't figure out where she had gone wrong.
Is Natasha really a witch or something? How did she manage to seduce so many people into being on her side?
Thea felt resentful and was full of hatred toward Natasha. She clenched her fists in defiance, but when she thought about what was going to happen that night, she smirked coldly.
Soon enough, Natasha would disappear from the face of the earth.
So what if he wants her to marry into the Hamilton family? She'll be dead long before that happens.
She calmed herself down and walked out of the cafe.
After leaving the cafe, Liam went straight to the hospital.
His face lit up with a smile the moment he spotted Denise and Benjamin.
Kenneth saw him and asked, “What are you doing here, Grandpa?”
“What? Am I not allowed to be here?” Liam said scornfully.
His grandson stayed silent.
Liam rolled his eyes at him before walking toward Natasha. “How are you, Nat? Are you feeling any better?”
“Yes! I’m feeling much better, Old Mr. Hamilton.”
“That's good,” Liam said. He seemed to be in a rather good mood.
“What are you doing here?” Natasha asked.
Liam finally started talking about the reason he was here. “I heard that someone wanted to marry into our family, so I rushed over to see if that was true. If it is, I'll have a lot of preparation to make!”
Kenneth looked over at Liam upon hearing what he said.
He finally realized why his grandfather had been angry and exposed that Thea had
already looked for him.
Kenneth frowned.
Natasha, on the other hand, was rather nonchalant. She smirked for she foresaw Thea going to Liam. She just hadn't expected her to do it so soon.
“Nat, is this true?” Liam asked with a huge smile on his face.
Before Natasha could reply, Terence walked out of the bathroom and said, “Of course not. Don't even think about it!”
Liam's first instinct was to argue with Terence, but at the thought of his two precious great- grandchildren, he immediately did his best to suppress his temper.
“I didn’t expect to see you here, Terence!” Liam greeted.
Terence could already guess Liam's intentions and glanced at him. “I'm telling you, Liam, stop thinking of ways to drag Nat into your family. She won't be stepping foot into your house again. Besides, I've already found a good match for her.”
Kenneth turned abruptly at Terence's sudden confession.
“Who is that?” Liam asked.
“Why would I tell you that?” Terence scoffed.
Liam frowned. “It's not like you'll lose anything if you tell me.”
Terence glanced at Kenneth before smirking as he looked back at Liam. “Well, I've known you for long enough. Of course, I know that you've got a little plan up your sleeve. Either way, forget about having her marry your grandson ever again.”
