Chapter 7

Mr. Zohar continued to speak in a slightly hesitant voice: "My niece has been used to a free and comfortable life since she was young, so I'm afraid it's not very suitable."

Mr. Usha still did not give up, trying to convince him: "It's okay, the rituals that people set can also change and learn to adapt."

Just like that, Mr. Zohar could not help but agree to this marriage because of the sincerity of his old friend. A nod and two bright smiles marked an upcoming marriage.

People come and go, and there are meetings and farewells, but why does everyone feel strangely sad? Those who leave walk away but still feel attached, those who stay cannot bear to leave, they still stand and wave until the two are out of sight. That moment also passed, and everyone returned to life as usual.

Another day passed, and Rosabella was on her way home when the whole family was sitting in the living room.

Mr. Zohar called his granddaughter: "Rosabella, come here for a moment."

"Yes, Grandpa."

Mr. Zohar's face was a little gloomy, and he slowly announced: "Today, our families are all here, I have something to announce. Mr. Usha came to visit our family this time, first to visit me, and then to discuss the childhood engagement between our two families."

Everyone was stunned, their mouths wide open in surprise. Everything happened so suddenly.

Mr. Zohar looked at all his children and grandchildren, sighed in relief, and continued: "This is a childhood engagement, the Romano family came in person, we cannot refuse. Cynthia should prepare."

Cynthia cried loudly. Rosabella and Lawrence were also quite surprised, speechless. The atmosphere became heavy and stifling.

Lawrence felt sorry for her daughter, so he hurriedly said:

"Cynthia has never met that guy, how can she get married, Dad? Husband, say something, are we just sitting here watching our daughter suffer?"

Cynthia cried miserably and choked up,

"Even if I die, I don't want to marry that guy Dominic. He is famous as an 'ice tiger', everyone knows him. Grandpa, do you and Mom want to see me die alone there?"

Mr. Zohar also sighed, he couldn't bear to see his granddaughter suffer but also didn't know how to refuse the Romano family. The space was quiet, everyone was silent, the scenery also became dull, and the atmosphere was much more gloomy.

Returning to the Romano house, the doorbell rang, the servant ran out, and bowed slightly: "Master, you're back."

Cayle helped his grandfather sit down on the sofa, poured a cup of hot tea, and placed it in front of him.

Viktor just walked out of the room, he sat down on the opposite chair, clasped his hands on his knees, looked at his father's face, and asked:

"Are you tired from the long journey, father?"

Mr. Usha smiled lightly, shook his head, and replied: "I'm fine, quickly call the children down here, I have something to tell them."

The atmosphere in the villa was silent for a moment, the footsteps down the stairs gradually got closer. It was Mr. Usha's two grandsons, one by one, sitting down on the chair. Both of them were quite surprised to see that Grandpa's complexion after the long trip seemed better than usual. To be honest, it wasn't because he had traveled far, but because he had met the person he wanted to meet.

After all the members were present, Mr. Usha solemnly announced, "Today I met Zohar, and we discussed the marriage between our families."

Looking at the faces of the children and grandchildren, everyone was stunned and speechless. Even Dominic's icy face changed color, so you can see how powerful this announcement was.

Dominic stammered and asked his grandfather, "What kind of marriage, Grandpa?"

Mr. Usha had predicted that everyone would be extremely surprised to hear this announcement, so it was no surprise. He slowly explained:

"When I was young, Zohar and I made a betrothal agreement that our two families would become in-laws in the future. But I only have one son, your father, and so does Zohar, so the betrothal agreement was passed on to you. Now that you have reached the age of marriage, I should also fulfill this agreement. Dominic, you are the eldest grandson, so I hope you will agree to this marriage."

Dominic was shocked to hear his name called. He had always hated being close to women, but now he was being forced to marry a girl he had never met, so of course he did not agree. Dominic coldly replied:

"I do not agree."

After speaking, he stood up and went straight to his room, closed the door, rolled onto the bed, and sighed repeatedly.

---

The next day, Dominic left the house early in the morning. He seemed to be avoiding his grandfather because the situation was so sudden that he could not find a suitable reason to refuse the marriage. Dominic was always decisive and cool in business school but was quite hesitant and always tried to avoid his family members.

As soon as he reached the office door, he turned around and said:

"Aylin, bring me a cup of coffee in the office."

Knocking on the door, Aylin walked in with a cup of coffee: "General Manager, you look tired today. You should pay attention to your health."

"I know."

The atmosphere was extremely stifling. His usually cold face was even angrier today, looking like a time bomb that could explode at any moment.

A man walked in without knocking and sat on the sofa. He looked quite rich and handsome, with a perfect, friendly face. But just looking at him, one could immediately guess that he was a playboy. He was wearing a dark green suit, with a black and white striped shirt inside. He poured a cup of hot tea and said:

"Dominic, you are getting married without telling your friends."

He was Sharon, the sole heir of the JT Group. He was known as a playboy, surrounded by women, and had never been honest with any girl. Sharon was Dominic's childhood friend.

Dominic was angry, so he took the opportunity to vent his anger on Sharon: "You came in without knocking?"

Sharon leaned back on the sofa and continued smugly:

"I saw that you were about to get married, so I came here to congratulate you. Are you so touched that you cried?"
