“You mentioned that you want Tyler to marry you. Had he agreed to it, we wouldn’t oppose it. However, Tyler doesn’t want to marry you,” Old Mister Hart explained. “What can we do as his elders? We can’t force him to marry you. If he refuses to marry you, we can’t make him do it, can we now?”
Old Mister Hart’s words were relatively tactful, but everyone present understood his message.
If Avery was willing to have the child, the Hart family would take responsibility. If she did not want to do so, they would not force her either. After all, she was the one carrying the child. Regardless, none of them were happy that Avery was trying to blackmail them into compliance using her pregnancy.
Compared to Avery, the Hart family found Vicky easier to accept, which was one of the reasons Old Mister Hart and Tyler’s parents did not outright oppose Tyler’s desire to marry Vicky.
Women who tried to use children as leverage like Avery were not welcomed into the family.
Mister Yeager was also irritated by Avery’s foolishness and frowned at her. “Let’s wait until the paternity test is done before discussing what comes next.”Books Chapters Are
Avery was reluctant to give up but noticed her mother signaling her to calm down, so she suppressed her anger.
“Let’s leave it at that for now, then,” Mister Yeager said as he stood up. He turned to Old Mister Hart and added, “Whether this child stays or goes, we’ll inform the Hart family as soon as possible.”
Old Mister Hart nodded. “It’s getting late. Why don’t you take Avery back home to rest?”
After bidding farewell, Avery’s parents led her away.
It was only after they left the Hart estate that Avery finally exploded. “Mom, Dad, why didn’t you let me speak? Are they not afraid that I’ll terminate this child? I don’t believe they’d stand idly by as I remove this child!”
“They wouldn’t have said what they did if they cared,” Mister Yeager said coldly. “If you don’t want to give birth to the child, countless other women are willing to bear a child for the Hart family.”
“Alright, then! I’ll terminate this pregnancy and make them regret this forever!” Avery claimed arrogantly.
Missus Yeager could not stand by quietly anymore. “Avery, know your place. The Hart family may care about the child, but they have a higher regard for you because of it. Besides, the Hart family has many heirs. Another child doesn’t make much difference.”
“But you heard Tyler just now. He’s refusing to marry me and wants to marry Vicky!” Avery screamed.
Missus Yeager cautioned her, “Avery, you are my daughter, and you are the best in my eyes. However, I have to remind
you that you’re already married to Lincoln. Even if you divorce him, you’d be a woman who was married once. Tyler is the head of the Hart family. How important do you think you have to be for him to marry you at all costs?”
Avery’s breath caught, and she could not find words to argue.
Mister Yeager was not as careful with his words as Missus Yeager. He coldly stated, “You’ve spoiled her, and that’s why she thinks so highly of herself. She must think that she’s a goddess or something to have the guts to demand someone like Tyler to marry her. Just look at her!”
