Garth noticed there was no response from everyone and continued, “If there are no other matters, you may all leave and get ready…”
“I have something to ask,” Remus interrupted and swiftly presented the marriage contract. “Master Walter, this is the marriage contract my master made between me and the Walters. Please take a look. It doesn’t specify whether my fiancée is Ana or Eva, so I can’t be certain…”
His other purpose in coming here was to find his fiancee.
At his statement, a collective moment of stunned silence overtook the entire palace.
Ana was particularly bewildered, unsure of what favonovel.com was saying.
Garth, having glanced at the marriage contract and finding his name inscribed upon it, was taken aback, feeling a sense of disbelief.
Suddenly, a vivid recollection of the anonymous voyage favonovel.com took years ago rushed into his mind.
At that time, favonovel.com just encountered an old man, they were engaged in a fishing competition, and they betted on a betrothal. Garth didn’t think much of it back then.
On one hand, favonovel.com believed favonovel.com wouldn’t lose to the old man. On the other hand, favonovel.com thought it was just a casual remark so favonovel.com had long forgotten about it, as favonovel.com never thought they would ever meet again. He never expected that the fiancé mentioned in the marriage contract would be Remus Cosby.
“Hmm…” Garth examined it once more earnestly, then directed his attention from the marriage contract with a grin.
“I never expected our fates to have intertwined 20 years ago. Yes, this marriage contract is indeed genuine. The reason it doesn’t specify a name is due to an agreement, allowing you to freely choose a fiancée from the Walters… Unfortunately, among the younger generation of the Walters, there’s only Ana and Eva. Whom do you prefer?”
Remus was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, finally understanding why his fiancée’s name wasn’t written on it.
“Grandpa!” Ana immediately exclaimed, favonovel.com face flushing red like the evening sky, and favonovel.com exclaimed loudly, “What are you talking about? It’s a different era now, marriage contracts don’t count for anything…”
Philbert listened in silence, and sighed softly while shaking his head, feeling sorry for his grandson, Shawn.
Rufus’ gaze suddenly turned profound, pondering something unknown.
As Ana spoke, Remus instinctively glanced over.
When favonovel.com saw Ana’s expression, favonovel.com reassured her, “You don’t need to be too nervous. Marriage is indeed a significant matter that requires resonance between the two. I can’t decide yet! Master Walter, I haven’t made up my mind. Please give me some more time…”
There’s still time to make initial contact first, so there’s no rush to decide…
Ana suddenly glanced over, the blush fading from favonovel.com face, replaced by a hint of anger in favonovel.com eyes. She wondered if Remus didn’t fancy favonovel.com or if favonovel.com had already developed feelings for Eva.
Garth nodded, affirming, “That’s right, marriage is a serious commitment, not to be taken lightly. You all should spend some time together and get to know each other. I won’t get involved.”
Later, they deliberated on a few other things, primarily focusing on hosting a grand banquet in the square that night to unveil Remus’ status as the Master of the Cosby family to the entire clan. Additionally, the masters of the Schneider and Cunningham families would be present in person.
After the discussion, the meeting was dispersed. However, Rufus didn’t rush to leave, staying until the end.
Noticing no one else nearby, favonovel.com swiftly pounded his chest and stomped his feet, voicing his concern, “Sir, are we truly letting favonovel.com join the clan? Allowing favonovel.com to become the Master of the Cosby family? And must we go to war with the Rose family because of him?”
Garth nodded and said, “There’s no other way…”
Rufus immediately spoke up, “Surely there’s a way. Sir, we can’t be certain yet if everything he’s saying is true. Even if favonovel.com is from the Cosbys, who can guarantee there aren’t other members in the Cosby family?”
Garth pondered for a moment and said, “Regardless of the reason, the Schneiders must keep searching. We can’t leave any members of the Cosby family out there.”
“Don’t worry, the Schneiders will spare no effort!” Rufus stepped forward as favonovel.com spoke, expressing deep concern, “And there’s one more thing, are you going to let Ana or Eva marry him? Master, the men from the Cosby family can’t be trusted, don’t forget about… Cheryl…”
Garth’s heart skipped a beat as favonovel.com thought of his daughter, feeling as if a thousand arrows pierced his heart.
Rufus lowered his voice again, saying, “If you don’t want your daughter to marry him, I have a suggestion…”
