Dauntless God Of War

Chapter 126

“How can you say that, child? We have three joyous events to celebrate. How can you call it upsetting?” Glen reprimanded Megan

Her words caused Glen's bright smile to slowly morph into a look of displeasure.

“Look at him. He went out for a few years and came back like this. He's a loser, and we are all aware of his family's situation. They are so poor that you don't even dare to invite them to your grandson's welcoming party. You fear that his family will be troubled and mocked for failing to contribute a monetary gift. I can't believe you have the heart to let me marry into such a family and suffer with them. It makes me wonder if I'm really your biological child!”

After being reprimanded by Glen, Megan did not behave appropriately. Instead, she became even more agitated.

Her words also made Harold's face turn red, but not because she had snubbed him.

He realized that he had misunderstood Glen.

He didn't inform my family of his grandson's first-month birthday party not because he looked down on us, or that he wants to cut off all contact with us, but because he was afraid that it would bring about financial burden as my mom would overspend on the monetary gift if she knew.

Upon realizing that Glen had been sincerely considerate toward his family, Harold felt a little ashamed to have made those assumptions about Glen.

“Shut up! If it weren't for Louis' help back then, would our family achieve our current success? What right do you have to snub Harry? You have to go through with this marriage regardless of your will!” Glen berated Megan loudly once again for snubbing Harold in front of so many guests. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Megan's eyes reddened after Glen scolded her. She stomped her foot and dragged the young man out of the living room.

Glen's wife, having witnessed the commotion, glared at him fiercely and handed her grandson to her daughter-in-law. She went out after Megan.

“Please forgive her impertinence, Harold. The marriage between you and Megs was decided by your father and me back then. She's all yours now. I won't let her reject the marriage just because of your family's situation. I can assure you!” Glen exclaimed firmly, afraid that Harold would feel embarrassed.

“Mr. Zeller, I came here to discuss with you about my marriage with Megan. I think—”

Before Harold could touch on his main objective to call off the engagement, he was interrupted by the older man.

“Don't worry, Harold. Since you have returned, I shall visit your family tomorrow to discuss it with Louis. It's my grandson's first-month birthday celebration today. Let's not talk about anything else. The party is about to start. Sit with me at the main table. Stay for the food,” Glen said heartily.

His words made Harold feel embarrassed for attempting to bring up the calling off the engagement on such an occasion, so he decided to talk about it at a later date.

“All right, Mr. Zeller!” he replied, feeling rather helpless.

Following that, the two chatted a little about what Harold had gone through in the outside world all these years.

Harold was not one who enjoyed showing off, so he did not disclose his identity to Glen. He simply said that he had served as a soldier for two years, and then he worked in Dellmoor after he was discharged from the army.

He did not elaborate further.

The two had not chatted for long when the party began.

Megan, her mother, and the handsome young man happened to return together.

“Let's see how you'll embarrass yourself later!”

Megan saw that Harold was actually chatting happily with her father as he sat next to him. She exchanged glances with the young man. The two smirked.

Soon, Harold, the Zellers, and several other elders were seated at the same table.

“Jacob, didn't you mention that you have a gift for my nephew? Show us!”
