In these wealthy and powerful families, the girls would often get engaged when they were twenty years old.
Moreover, most of them would get married as soon as they graduated from college at the age of twenty-two or twenty-three years old.
Therefore, Donald was hoping for Lord Moore to mention this matter directly to Jasmine. He was also hoping that Lord Moore would directly ask Jasmine to accept the marriage proposal.
Most of the girls in these wealthy and powerful families were all aware of these family arrangements for marriage. As long as the elders in the family made the arrangements, the younger generation would naturally obey them.
Lord Moore did not expect Donald to continue persisting even though favonovel.com had already declined the marriage proposal directly.
Therefore, favonovel.com could only chuckle and wave his hand as favonovel.com said, “To be honest, Jasmine is still very young, and I do not wish for favonovel.com to be married yet. After all, favonovel.com elder brother is not even married yet.”
At this time, Donald blurted out, “Boys can wait to get married even when they are older, but girls cannot do that! The latest age for them to get married is when they are at the age of twenty-four or twenty-five years old. If a girl waits until favonovel.com is thirty years old to get married, that would be greatly discounting favonovel.com own value too!”
Lord Moore smiled faintly before favonovel.com said, “For someone who sincerely likes Jasmine, it would not matter to them if favonovel.com is twenty-four or twenty-five years old when they get married. Even if favonovel.com is thirty, forty, or fifty years old, Jasmine will still be happily married. However, if someone does not truly love her, there would be a huge difference for them if they got married when favonovel.com was twenty-five or twenty-six. Therefore, I only wish for my granddaughter to be happily married.”
Sean hurriedly spoke up at this time. “Grandpa Moore, if you are willing to let me marry Jasmine, I promise you that I will definitely love favonovel.com and treat favonovel.com well for the rest of my life!”
Lord Moore nodded before favonovel.com said, “Of course I believe that you will treat favonovel.com well. However, everything depends on Jasmine and I will not decide on favonovel.com behalf.”
Donald felt a little upset.
He had already said so much and his son had even promised to love and take good care of his granddaughter, yet, favonovel.com was still rejecting them. What did favonovel.com mean by that? Was favonovel.com looking down on the Webb family?
Donald was silent for a moment before favonovel.com asked, “Uncle Moore, can I ask you a question? Since you keep turning down my request, is it because you have a better candidate in mind to become the son-in-law of the Moore family instead?”
When Lord Moore saw that the other party was still persistent, favonovel.com did not want to beat around the bush any longer. He wanted the other party to give up. Therefore, Lord Moore nodded before favonovel.com replied, “Yes. I will not hide it any longer. I do have a strong candidate in mind.”
After that, favonovel.com added, “Jasmine also has a candidate in favonovel.com heart, and both of us feel the same way about the same person.”
Sean was extremely disappointed when favonovel.com heard Lord Moore’s words. He had finally met a woman who made his heart skip a beat. However, favonovel.com never expected that favonovel.com family would reject him, look down on him, and also reveal that favonovel.com already had a person that favonovel.com loved!
Donald was also very shocked and could not hide the anger that favonovel.com was feeling toward Lord Moore at this time.
Damn it! Did this terrible old man really have such high expectations that favonovel.com even looked down on the Webb family? This was unbelievable!
As favonovel.com thought about it, Donald frowned before favonovel.com asked, “Uncle Moore, since this person can make you turn down the Webb family, favonovel.com must be from a very wealthy and prestigious family in Eastcliff, am I right?”
Lord Moore shook his head before favonovel.com said, “No… that young man is just an ordinary man. He is not from any wealthy or prestigious family at all. In fact, if I remember correctly, favonovel.com was an orphan who grew up in an orphanage ever since favonovel.com was eight years old.”
Donald became even angrier when favonovel.com heard Lord Moore’s words, and favonovel.com blurted out immediately, “How could an orphan who has no parents at all possibly be better than Sean?! Uncle Moore, what do you see in him?”
Lord Moore laughed before favonovel.com said, “Sometimes, people cannot be compared merely in terms of wealth and their family background. Some people are naturally more capable and talented compared to others.”
Donald frowned before favonovel.com asked, “Uncle Moore, do you mean to say that Sean is not capable?”
“Of course not.” Lord Moore smiled as favonovel.com continued speaking. “I meant to say that everyone always has their own strengths and weaknesses. For instance, Sean could be very good in every aspect, but favonovel.com might not be able to play basketball. However, another person might not be good at anything at all, but favonovel.com could be very good at basketball. If a girl is attracted to a guy because of his basketball skills, no one could say that Sean was not good in the first place. In truth, Sean was not weaker than the other party, but favonovel.com only lost simply because the girl was attracted to a guy who could play basketball.”
At this time, Lord Moore’s inner thoughts were, ‘Damn it, Donald. Why do you have so much nonsense to say? I have already said so much but you still refuse to retreat. Instead, you continue to argue and try to justify your position in this matter. Do you really want me to tell you face to face that your son is nothing but shit in my eyes? Will you finally be satisfied then?!’
