William was stunned and started thinking.
"You worry that if Ann and I got married, she will be bullied because of her family background, and I will toy with her feelings."
"Karl's family background is ordinary, but he is arrogant and weak-minded. He can easily listen to outsiders and hurt Ann. So, you can see that family background does not mean anything." Phillip continued.
William frowned and said, "Even so, Ann and Karl broke up because of you. If Ann were to be with you, wouldn't it prove that Ann cheated on you? Do you know what that means to a girl?"
Phillip's expression turned cold when he heard this and said, "Mr. William, once you were also a businessman. I believe you know that the wise will not listen to rumors. Not to mention that I'm able to protect Ann. If you reject me because of these rumors, how can I offer happiness for Ann."
