Invincible Heir

Yuri sobbed like a banshee as if she was trying to jettison all the unfairness, indignation, and humiliation she’d endured in just a few days.

Of course she’d thought the expensive gifts the Lewis family had brought were betrothal gifts for her.

Of course she’d assumed that the feast the Lewis family had taken them to in the Starry Garden Hotel was an engagement banquet.

It had taken Edward Lewis denying it in person for her to realize the truth.

Henry didn’t believe a word of what she’d said, raging, “Even if Mr. Lewis doesn’t have a son, there are other unmarried males in the Lewis Clan. It’s all listed as ‘Betrothal Gifts’ in the inventory, and you’re the only one in your family who hasn’t married yet. If it wasn’t for you, who was it all for?”

Hearing “Betrothal Gifts” finally brought some clarity to Yuri, and her face turned ashen. “So they really were betrothal gifts. Just not for me.”

With that, she turned and left.

When Edward had come saying he bore gifts for Baron, she’d had her doubts. The list had actually said “Betrothal Gifts” when the items first arrived. She’d thought she had made a mistake then.

Now she finally knew. They were betrothal gifts – the Lewis Clan had passed them to Tracy on Baron’s behalf.

“Yuri, don’t go!”

Seeing that Yuri was leaving, Henry began to panic.

“Dad, don’t get too worked up. Give us some time, and we can convince Yuri,” Sherry hastened forward and spoke.

“If we can’t solve the clan’s crisis tonight, then it’s all over!”

Henry roared furiously, then continued, “The trouble the Perry clan is in is all thanks to your household. If you can’t get the Lewis Clan’s forgiveness by the break of dawn, forget about coming back to the family – I’ll make you all pay!”

With that, Henry spun and left. Sherry hurried to chase after him. “Dad, you really mean it to make Terry assistant general manager, and give us the courtyard mansion?”

Henry was far too incensed to reply. He stepped into his car and sped off.

“Terry, what did Dad mean by that? I thought he said he would make you assistant general manager. What about our mansion?” Sherry wasn’t yet aware of the danger to the Perry Clan.

His wife was so infuriating that Terry had to laugh. “If you want to live in a mansion, go to the Perry courtyard yourself tomorrow to see if he has one ready for you.”

“What do you mean, Terry?” Sherry snapped, embarrassed.
