"Grandpa, I've brought my new girlfriend back. I want to marry her," Brogan said, pulling Marlee in without noticing me inside.

When he saw me, his face darkened instantly.

Hector's face was also dark.

"Tianna, you're shameless! We've broken up, and you still dare to come to my grandfather's house for a meal?"

I was about to speak when Hector stopped me. He picked up his cane and struck Brogan heavily.

"You bastard! Why would I have such a grandson like you? At the wedding, you humiliate your bride by making your ex-girlfriends the bridesmaids and ruin the entire event over a necklace!"

Brogan seemed indifferent, clearly still not grasping the gravity of the situation.

"Grandpa, it doesn't matter who I marry. What's important is that I give you a grandson."

Hector nearly choked on his anger. How could a man so clever have such a foolish grandson?

He issued Brogan his final ultimatum, "Listen up, only the person who marries Tianna can inherit the entire Malone family fortune!"

As I was about to leave, Brogan blocked my way, demanding to know what I had done to his grandfather.

Looking at the man in front of me, I felt it ridiculous and said.

"Brogan, you must be the most incompetent among the younger generation of the Malone family. You waste your time on pleasures and remain indifferent. Why do you think your grandfather would leave the family fortune to you? Before our wedding, Grandpa already made it clear. Only the person who marries me can inherit the Malone family fortune. Do you and your parents plan to rely on others for everything?"

Brogan laughed at my words, seemingly unconcerned. "Tianna, you're so funny. Do you think I won't get the fortune if I don't marry you? Without me, you're nothing. Your family's company is about to go bankrupt, right?

"Making my ex-girlfriends your bridesmaids was a favor to you. What's wrong with that? I just wanted to give every girl a home. In a way, our wedding was also my wedding with them."

I truly didn't understand how Brogan could say such shameless things with such confidence.

I had no interest in arguing with Brogan. Soon enough, he would learn that he had crossed a line.

Years ago, my grandfather, who was a soldier during the war, had saved Hector's life.

Because of this, my grandfather had lost his life.

Over the years, Hector had treated my family well, repaying the life-saving grace of the past.
