My Marriage to a Mute Girl

After returning from Howard's house, Edith was smug as hell.

As soon as she entered the house, she was called out by Peter, "Edith, where have you been?"

Edith just entered the house, didn't notice her father sitting on the sofa and was startled, "I ...... I went to Howard's. Didn't you tell me to approach Alan?"

"Nonsense!" Peter slapped the table and stood up, "Did I let you get close to the Howard family to do something nonsensical? What's with the news?"

Edith said sheepishly, "What news, I ...... I don t know."

"You don't know?" Peter's face turned livid with anger, "You're my daughter, there's absolutely no way I'd let you marry Alan. You've never seen his tactics, so you don't know how sinister he is."

Having fought with Alan many times, he had long known that Alan was a man who would do whatever it took, otherwise he wouldn't have risked offending Alan by marrying Lexie instead in the first place.

Edith thought otherwise, seeing Peter's face easing, she immediately took advantage of the situation to hold his arm and said petulantly, "Dad, don't worry, Alan is really good to me. He even taught Lexie a lesson for me today in front of me, no matter what I say, he believes it, I think that Lexie is useless to stay in the Howard family."

Saying that, Edith spiced up what happened today at Howard's house.

The more Peter listened, the more uneasy he felt, "Edith, listen to me, he's not that simple, do you think he can't read these little tricks of yours?"

A man, who had been in the business world, had seen many storm, how would be get fooled by a girl?

"Gee, don't worry, Dad, I promise you that when I marry into the Howard family, Alan will help our family's business."

"Edith!" Peter immediately changed his face, revealing a stern look as he scolded, "I'm telling you for the last time, it is absolutely impossible. If you insist, I will send you out of the country to continue your studies, and you don't have to care about Kevin Stewart."

Edith was startled, looking at her father's stern look, the words she wanted to say were all swallowed back, the smug look frozen at the corners of her mouth for a long time before she reluctantly nodded her head in agreement.

Looking at his daughter's aggrieved look, Peter's heart softened and he said kindly, "I am doing this for your own good. Don't get angry, cheer up, Alan is coming tomorrow morning."

"Alan is coming to our house?" Edith's eyes lit up.
