    Actually, after knowing that Daniel was a single father, Alice had already anticipated that his financial


    situation might not be good.


    She had a casual attitude toward marriage, so she did not prioritize material possessions when it came


    to rtionships.


    So, she pondered for a moment, estimated her financial capability, carefully chose her words, and said,


    “This is not a problem. I’m an actress, and currently, my pay per episode is 5 thousand dors. I also


    own a 100-square-meter small house and have a domestically produced car and a BMW provided by


    thepany.


    “Currently, I have savings of around 160 thousand dors. After we register our marriage, I will take


    care of the children’s school fees and your living expenses.”


    Being the family member of an artist came with a lot of pressure, so she would take on more financial


    responsibility and support him financially. Alice thought this could be considered a form of


    compensation for Daniel too.


    Daniel was left speechless.


    “Why do I feel that she is somehow keeping me by supporting me financially?” he thought.


    Seeing Daniel’s serious expression, Alice thought momentarily and realized he was probably afraid of


    being deceived into a marriage fraud. So she added, “You can check my information. I’m a C-list


    actress who has appeared in several TV dramas. I’ve got a certain level of poprity. After we register


    our marriage, I can draft an agreement for you. I will ensure the rights and interests of both you and the


    children.


    “We can have a trial marriage for six months, and if we find it unsuitable after six months, we can get a


    divorce. I can offer you and the children the apartment where I currently live in.”


    As Daniel listened to Alice’s words, his expression became increasinglyplex.


    He thought, “This woman… I’m the one who is supposed to say the very things that she just said.


    “What is she doing?


    “Making somepromise so that she can control me?”


    William, unable to resist eavesdropping, was now looking at Alice’s back with an admiring look in his


    eyes.


    He thought, “She is a bada ss!


    “I never expected that in my lifetime, I would witness a girl speaking to Daniel in such a manner!


    “My brother is clearly a domineering CEO, yet the other party still manages to assume a superior


    posture of financially supporting him.


    “Even my brother is now dumbfounded and doesn’t know how to respond.


    “Haha. Such an interesting girl. If she doesn’t be my sister-inw, it would surely be a waste.”


    It was at this moment that Daniel’s phone rang.


    Seeing that it was his eldest sister calling, Daniel frowned deeply and answered with aplicated


    expression. “Daniel, how are the kids doing? How many times have I told you to get them a mother?


    You never listen.


    “If they had a mother to pick them up today, would it be like this? I don’t care. Once the kid is


    discharged, you go and get married to the daughter of the Fowler family. I’ve already spoken to them


    about this.”


    The thought of his eldest sister causing chaos in the entire family over his marriage matters caused


    Daniel’s expression to be displeased.


    That daughter of the Fowler family was willful, arrogant, and domineering. Neither Daniel nor his


    children liked her. He would rather marry the scheming woman in front of him than choose a woman


    who would cause turmoil in his own home.


    After all, as she mentioned, they could sign an agreement for a six-month trial marriage. If they were


    not satisfied, they could simply part ways.


    “Rachel, I will collect the marriage license tomorrow,” Daniel said. “You and Mom and Dad, please


    make some preparation.” Daniel interrupted his sister’s incessant talk.


    “What?” Rachel Kaur said. “You’re getting married tomorrow? Your fussiness is next-level, yet youThis is from N?velDrama.Org.


    manage to get a girl? You, um, you’re not getting married to a dude, right?” Rachel expressed her


    concern.


    Daniel looked displeased. He said, “A woman. Her name is Alice Doyle.”


    The words of Daniel instantly caused an uproar in the Kaur family.


    After ending the call, Rachel rushed back to Khawst Community. She woke everyone up in the house,


    calling for a family meeting to discuss whether they should do something to express their gratitude


    toward Alice,
