Chapter 300 Cynthia


    First, Emrys quietly paved the way for the Ginger family, anticipating the moment when his beloved


    would return home for a visit. Then, he could proudly dere, “Look, my love, this is the empire I have


    built for you. Even your great–grandfather must acknowledge and respect you!”


    As the time approached, he wondered how she would choose to greet him. Perhaps a k*ss on the left


    cheek, or the right, or even on his forehead.


    The mere thought filled him with excitement.

    While the two were conversing in the main hall, a woman entered from outside. With a somber


    expression, she announced, “Father, Ryker has gone too far. I want a divorce!”


    This woman was Cynthia, Emmett’s youngest daughter. Though her beauty did not surpass that of


    Lydia, she possessed her own youthful charm.


    She had a strained rtionship with Lydia.


    In the past, the Ginger family had intended to arrange a marriage between Lydia and Ryker of the


    Warhol family. However, by that time, Lydia had already fallen in love with Richard and rejected the


    arranged marriage. Out of resentment, she even left the Ginger family.


    Ironically, this yed right into Cynthia’s hands.


    Considering the rtionship between the two families, the Ginger family ultimately decided to have


    Cynthia rece her sister, Lydia, and marry Ryker. This fulfilled Cynthia’s wish.


    Thus, the bond between the two families was maintained.


    However, Cynthia suddenly came forward, dering she wanted to divorce Ryker. Upon hearing this,


    Emmett was naturally filled with rage and eximed, “Why now? The martial arts tournament is


    imminent, and you choose this moment to talk about divorce? Can’t you distinguish between what is


    urgent and what is not?”


    Cynthia, with a sense of injustice, replied, “Father, it’s not that I want to bring this up at such a time, but


    Ryker has crossed the line. He said either we divorce or I must sever all ties with you.”


    “What?”


    Emmett, seething with anger, mmed his hand on the table and eximed, “Did that wretched Ryker


    really say that? Is the Warhol family trying to gain favor with the Houghton family?”


    By speaking those words at such a crucial time, Ryker was essentially expressing the stance of the


    Warhol family.


    Of course, Emmett understood what Ryker meant.


    While wiping her tears, Cynthia spoke with a sense of grievance, “That’s exactly what the Warhol family


    meant. I couldn’t bear to stay in that house any longer, so I ran back here to tell you.”


    “That d*mned Ryker! Even before the results of the duel are known, he dares to utter such words. Does


    he truly believe that our Ginger family is weak?” Emmett’s anger was so intense that his beard


    trembled.


    Cynthia said. “Father, I truly don’t know what is happening. This time, the Warhol family seems


    unusually confident, as if they are certain the Houghton family will emerge victorious. I can’t shake this


    uneasy feeling.”


    “Hmph, what is there to panic about? If this were yesterday, I might have thought that the Ginger family


    stood little chance. However, now… Just wait and see. The time wille when the Warhol family


    regrets their actions.” Emmett also harbored a deep frustration in his heart.


    It was truly unbearable for him.


    Upon reflection, he realized that it was indeed wise of his beloved Lydia to refuse to marry that


    scoundrel Ryker in the first ce.


    With that thought in mind, Emmett couldn’t help but turn to look at Emrys. He took a deep breath,


    suppressing the anger in his heart, and said, “Mr. Lund, I apologize for the embarrassing situation you


    had to witness.”


    Emrys shook his head, remaining silent.


    Cynthia, on the other hand, asked with a hint of confusion, “Dad, who is this?”


    As she entered andid eyes on Emrys, she was momentarily taken aback. She couldn’t understand


    why her father would still be in the mood to sit there, sipping coffee and chatting at that hour, especially


    with such a young man.


    Upon hearing how Emmett referred to Emrys, her suspicion grew even stronger.


    Emmett spoke respectfully. “This gentleman, Mr. Lund, has been a great supporter of our Ginger


    family.”


    A great supporter? Cynthia became increasingly perplexed. Just then, a burst of excitedughter


    erupted from the backyard, startling the entire Ginger family. “Hahaha, truly, the heavens are smiling


    upon our Ginger family. Those who were waiting to mock me, I will make them regret it now!”


    stair’s heartyughter reverberated throughout the entire Ginger residence, leaving everyone


    present wondering what hade over him and if he had lost his mind.
