Chapter 1274
Lilian waved her hands. "If he dares to disagree, his father and I will cut all ties with him! This is not
the time for him to object!" i
After saying those words, Lilian paced toward Draco and Magnolia. With a cold and somber voice,
she spoke, "Draco, I will only say this. If Magnolia cannot fork out thirty million dors worth of
dowry, I have n o mood to even entertain the idea of marriage!” s
"Thirty million dors?!" Draco and Magnolia shouted i n shock!
Draco couldn''t hold in his anger, and he blurted," Mother, are you that poor till you''ve lost your
mind? You just mentioned ten million, and in the blink of an eye, you''ve changed it to thirty million.
Where in the world is Magnolia''s family going to get that crazy amount of money?! Even our family
can''t fork out that much!" 1
Lilian grabbed Draco’s sleeve and spoke, "Come with m e, I have something to tell you." i
She then proceeded to look at her husband and shout a t the top of her lungs, "Old man Turk
Scotson! Come here!"
Mr. Scotson quickly made his way toward his wife. The family of three stood in a corner where no
one was around and began talking. Draco, who was

fuming, began questioning, "Mother, what in the world are you doing? Do you truly want to see me
unhappy?" s
Lilian snapped back, "How dare you speak to your mom like that?! I was the one who raised you,
how could I not want the best for you? I''m just worried that you are being too irrational and might be
too blinded t o see that this Magnolia girl is not the right one for you!" 8
"That girl, Magnolia. You know what her family background is like, right? You want to marry her? In
the future, her parents and siblings will be sucking your finances dry! Soon after that, they wille
for your father and I. Do you really want your parents to die of frustration? Or do you want to cause
us devastation?" 7
Draco replied confidently, "Mother, don''t you worry. I promise, once I marry Magnolia, we will live on
our own. I will not burden you or our family with any of our problems. I won''t even ask for money
from you." 5
Lilian gritted her teeth. "Don’t give me all these unnecessary promises! Your father and I have
always been supporting you financially. Since you were a little boy, we''ve made sure that you had
all the money you needed. You''ve never experienced financial issues, therefore, you will never
understand how dreadful it is. The two of you want to rely on each other? Sooner orter, you will
starve to death!” 1
Lilian then proceeded to wave her hand and speak arrogantly, "You, father and son, listen to me,
and you''d better listen well! Right now, there is a golden opportunity to increase our wealth a few
folds! So, you two had better not disappoint me!" 7
Both father and son were surprised to hear such an announcement. They then questioned, "What
golden opportunity?"
In that instant, Lilian blurted out her n to the both o f them. 4
After listening to her story, Turk awkwardly asked, " Lilian... Did you just sell your son like an object?
What i f that foreigner''s child is born? Where are we supposed to put our dignity?" 5
Lilian argued, "Turk Scotson! You''ve worked hard all your life and you can barely make thirty to forty
million dors. As long as all of you are fine with this arrangement, our family will get fifty million
dors i n cash instantly. Did you hear me clearly? CASH?!" 1
Turk’s expression changed. He seemed to be struggling toprehend the situation at hand.
Yes, selling their son was indeed an embarrassing thing, but fifty million dors... The trade didn''t
seem t o be that bad of a deal. 6
Lilian took advantage of his dilemma and continued," Turk, you’d better not forget. The other family
has already agreed. Once our families are joined via this marriage, the flour industry will be ours!
Our family''s flour factory will be making incredible profits! We might even make millions of dors
per year! Who knows, we might even hit tens of millions! Just imagine, one yearter, your assets
will be in the billions!"
