Chapter 377: The World is Declining!
Mother Grant’s words made Daisy Grant’s fingertips stiffen for a moment, her eyes slightly lowered, bitter and helpless."Aidan Sutherland is coming back to the country soon, right? Once he’s back, your marriage should be settled. Daisy, your future mother-in-law is not a simple woman. After marriage, you should learn to integrate into the Sutherland Family. Also, Dawn Sutherland is an illegitimate child, and in Selah Sutton’s heart, he’s definitely like a thorn because it’s evidence of her husband’s betrayal. She definitely dislikes Dawn. It’s good if Dawn distances himself from you. You two shouldn’t get too close. If Selah dislikes you because of that, your married life will be difficult."
Daisy Grant bit her lip and bowed her head silently.
Avoid Second Brother? Impossible! She never wants to be estranged from Second Brother in her lifetime!
Mother Grant saw her silence, glanced at her, and spoke earnestly, "It’s not that Mommy is worldly, but this is reality. No mother would harm her daughter. Daisy, you’ve grown up sheltered by the family’s wings and haven’t experienced darkness. It’s understandable that you don’t understand. Once you take over the Grant Clan and deal with people, you’ll understand. Marriage isn’t just about one person. Marrying someone means marrying into their family. If your mother-in-law dislikes you, Daisy, your future tears will become an ocean."
"Mom, I’m going for a walk, feeling quite stuffy. You should chat with those socialites." Daisy Grant said and then turned to leave.
As soon as she turned around, she bit her lower lip hard, desperately suppressing her emotions from showing.
Happiness is so hard to find, Second Brother is so far away, the road ahead is bleak, what should she do?

The birthday banquet was about to start, and the three young masters of City C, along with Callan Walkers, gathered in a room.
Arlo Seys raised his wrist to check his watch, pursing his thin lips, and spoke solemnly, "Callan, the Saxton Family from City T and the brothers Langdon Seal haven’t arrived yet?"
Callan Walkers shook his head, "The Morris Family is here, but there’s no sign of the Seal Family and the Saxton Family. Could they not be coming? In theory, even if these two families don’t come, being prestigious families, they should understand the etiquette and at least call or send someone to make an appearance and apologize."
Nico Haynes said, "I’ve met the young master of the Saxton Family at a rich second-generation party before. Damn, he’s even more of a player than me. Little me always plays with mutual consent, but that bastard doesn’t care if the girl is willing or not; he’ll pursue her until she agrees! If it weren’t for the Saxton Family’s prestige in City T shielding him from embarrassment, he would’ve been executed several times over by now!"
Callan Walkers laughed, "Like Young Master Haynes said, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. A crooked upper beam leads to a crooked lower beam. It’s understandable! Scumbag fathers raise scumbag sons! Benny Saxton abandoned his wife for a mistress and ignored his missing eldest son. He even legitimized the mistress. This world is truly going downhill, with morality collapsing!"
Dawn Sutherland pondered for a moment, "Arlo, Damien Morris’s sister is the wife of the Saxton Family, and there’s a connection between the Morris and Saxton Families that we’re already aware of. But what about the Seal Family? What’s the relationship between them?"
Arlo Seys’s eyes were deep, "I just want to know what role the Seal Family plays in this, but I’m sure they’re here with hostility towards the Saxton and Morris Families, not for love."
Nico Haynes twirled a pen, raising an eyebrow with a wicked smile, "Conflict is better; that way, we can reap the benefits as a third party. Boss Seys, I’ll play this chess game with you. Facing the Saxton, Morris, and Seal Families, we must stand tall! Bring it on, who’s afraid of who!!! We, the three young masters of City C, aren’t afraid of those ghosts from City T. This is our turf! Besides, Boss Seys, you have the Quinn Family’s support! I’m itching for a fight, so excited I want to start the battle right away!"
