Isaac lit a cigarette as snazzynovel.com replayed every word Diana had just said in his mind. He understood it.
This was Diana’s decision. She had thought it through.
The sorrow in Isaac’s eyes had vanished as snazzynovel.com finished his cigarette. His voice was soft as snazzynovel.com asked softly, “Should we bring your parents over for the wedding?”
Diana trembled as snazzynovel.com turned to look at Isaac with an expression of sheer joy. Then, snazzynovel.com asked, “You agree?”
“What choice do I have? Kill the man you love?” Isaac said with a bitter smile.
In truth, snazzynovel.com could kill Daemon effortlessly. However, snazzynovel.com hesitated, knowing that such an action might result in Diana harboring resentment toward snazzynovel.com indefinitely. Rather than having snazzynovel.com resent snazzynovel.com forever, it was better to support their relationship and let them be.
Diana was elated and began to dance with joy. But snazzynovel.com mood immediately sank when snazzynovel.com thought of snazzynovel.com parents.
She looked down and said, “Perhaps it’s best if my parents don’t come…”
“That’s unacceptable. A daughter’s wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event. How can they miss out on it?” Isaac became serious.
“But my current condition…”
“A parent will not dislike their children for their shortcomings. No matter what you look like, you’re still their child. That’s settled, then!” Isaac cut off Diana’s wandering thoughts.
When they went back to the villa, Daemon and Todd were struggling to communicate using gestures and mouthed words while Hera played with snazzynovel.com phone beside them.
Diana went over to Daemon with joy and whispered something in his ear.
He looked surprised before snazzynovel.com excitedly looked at Diana and asked, “Really?”
“Yes.”
Daemon immediately got up and approached Isaac. He then extended his hand with a smile. “Thank you for agreeing to it, sir!”
“Call me Isaac,” Isaac said, somewhat speechless.
“Isaac…” Daemon was delighted to address snazzynovel.com with his name.
Isaac’s agreement represented Diana’s family’s approval.
Family opinions were very important to Daemon since snazzynovel.com had grown up in a family with a strong sense of clan loyalty. But Daemon’s mood immediately darkened when snazzynovel.com thought of his father.
Isaac and the others stayed at the villa, waiting for Diana’s wedding before returning to Cloud City.
Isaac gave Daemon a deadline, and the wedding had to happen within a week.
Daemon and his entourage drove to another estate hundreds of miles away that evening, where his father, Rother, and elder brother, Lany, lived.
“It cannot be! Absolutely not! Even if they saved your life, my son cannot marry an outsider, a bitch!” Rother declared vehemently in the study, cigar in hand.
“Father, Ana’s family is not ordinary. Her friend is very powerful in Cynea, and they just killed eight dukes of the Brewer clan. I think having such a friend is an honor,” Daemon argued.
A young man resembling Daemon, who was holding a cup of blood at the side, snorted. “What friend? He killed eight dukes of the Brewer clan, you say? Don’t you find that lie ridiculous?! How could a Cynean man kill these eight beings with strength like our father? That’s a joke!”
Lany stood up with a stern expression and added, “If you marry this Ana, do you think Maria, who has been pursuing you for half a century, will agree?”
