Chapter 732
Amelia had never met James’ grandfather, but she had heard of
him.
It was said that when Dominic Evans was in power, not even the four great European families dared to compete with him.
It was precisely because of his iron-fisted approach that the Evans Group had remained strong in the North America and even throughout the world.
The powerful but retired man had come to see her in person, most likely because of James’ marriage.
As Amelia vaguely guessed the purpose of his visit, she became nervous and scared, but she still pretended to be calm and went downstairs after tidying up.
Without an invitation, Dominic entered the house, wearing a well-tailored suit, leaning on a dragon- head cane, standing upright in the living room.
The old man, aged 75, had white hair but looked young, he was
in great spirits and exuded an aloof aura of a powerful and refined
person.

Chapter 732 I Don’t Agree With Your Marria…
2/5
Amelia could feel the oppressive aura emanating from him even
before she approached him, but she had to gather her courage, clench her fists, and walk up to him.
“Mr. Evans.”
She greeted him politely, and only then did Dominic retract his gaze from scanning the surroundings and shift it towards her.
His poised eyes were not so much sizing up Amelia as they were scrutinizing her, from head to toe.
Amelia felt chills all over her body as he stared at her from head to toe, and her heart was pounding with nervousness. Despite this, she did not dare to show any sign of fear on her face.
Seeing that Dominic remained silent, she pretended to be calm and invited him to take a seat, “Mr. Evans, please be seated.”
She made a gesture of invitation, hoping to have him seated on the sofa, but he raised his hand and waved, “No, I’ll just say a few words and then I’ll go.”
The old man’s voice carried a sense of vicissitudes brought on by the passage of time, but he was still vigorous and powerful, with an imposing manner that made people dare not disobey his
wishes.
Amelia retracted her outstretched hand and looked up at the
Chapter 732 I Don’t Agree With Your Marria… towering figure of the old man, “Mr. Evans, may I ask if there’s anything you would like to instruct?”

She did not ask him why he was here or what he came for, but instead asked if he had anything to instruct, showing full respect.
Originally, disliking her, Dominic had a look of contempt and disdain in his eyes, but it had subsided slightly after hearing her
words.
He gripped his cane and looked down at Amelia from his high position, “On the night when James proposed to you, he invited me and all the elders of the family. Do you know why we didn’t go?”
Amelia knew the reason, but still pretended to be ignorant and shook her head, “Mr. Evans, perhaps I can get an answer from you
now.”
Dominic straightened his body and said coldly, “I don’t agree with your marriage.”
After he had said his purpose for coming, Amelia felt relieved inwardly, “Mr. Evans, James will decide everything about our marriage. If you don’t agree, you should go and discuss it with
him.”
She and James had gone through so much together, but when it came to the point of marriage, they faced obstacles from James’ elders. It was out of her control and the most immediate and
Chapter 732 I Don’t Agree With Your Marria… effective solution was to leave it in the hands of James.
Dominic was surprised that the good-looking girl was not only unafraid but calm and composed when facing him, and even
threw the question back at him.
4/5
He stared at Amelia, sizing her up again. This girl must have known that he had opposed the marriage between them in front of James, that was why she dared to be fearless and ask him to go discuss with James instead.
She was very clever, no wonder his grandson was dazzled by her
charm.
Dominic changed his disdainful expression and became guarded, “Ms. Garcia, you clearly know that James loves you very much and will naturally insist on marrying you. Don’t use him to dodge the issue between us. It’s better for us to be straightforward with each other.”
As she heard his tone becoming less polite, Amelia began to feel nervous, and her heart started to beat faster and faster, “I…”
He interrupted her before she could reply and raised his hand to stop her, “I won’t say much else. As James’ grandfather, I want to ask you a few questions.”
Amelia squeezed her hands and nodded gently, “Okay.”
Dominic raised a finger and asked Amelia, “First question, with
Chapter 732 I Don’t Agree With Your Marria… your background and status, are you worthy of him?”
