YM778.TV Chapter 101
The patriarch was not angry at Robin\'s response and continued, "Just listen, Robin, this situation is not new, on the contrary, I personally have been through it a lot, and all the senior families have passed by it at least once... taking a step from pure business between two untied families to something more, is a challenge, but not impossible!"
Saint Edward furrowed his eyebrow slightly, these words had already given a hint of what the patriarch would say...
"...Well, go ahead. What is your suggestion to solve this crisis of trust?" Robin pinned himself down and prepared to listen seriously this time
"There are a few methods that have been tried over thousands of years in situations like this, but the best of them is… marriage!"
Saint Edward sighed, he was right in his prediction.
"Hmmm? What marriage? Do you mean someone in our family is to marry into the Bradleys? how would that solve it?" Robin was shocked by the patriarch\'s answer and asked again to make sure he understood what was being said
" Indeed if two worthless candidates from the two families were to marry then it really won\'t make any difference... that is why the marriage has to be of the highest caliber to secure strong ties "
Robin smiled, " Oh? Why does it seem to me that you want to get yourself a younged pride, uncle Brian?"
The patriarch laughed when hearing this, "Haha, I\'m old, I do not have the energy or the patience for a new one, and even if I want to, the marriage of an old fart like me wouldn\'t be solid enough! ...you, Robin, you are the one who should marry from the Bradleys!"
"Great idea!"
" haha that indeed will solve everything"
"We have a lot of talented girls in the family, my granddaughter is a good girl, and my niece is also very beautiful.. I\'ll bring you both!"
The three Saints loved the idea and began to express their opinions, while Mila fell silent and looked at the ground with a long, unfocused look..
and Saint Edward shook his head, He knew that was not what Patriarch Brian was aiming at, but he kept silent, hoping that the patriarch would say something else.
When Robin heard the Patriarch\'s suggestion and then the approval and words of the three Bradley saints, he chuckled and almost turned to continue his way out of the room...
When the Patriarch saw this, he knew what Robin was thinking and shouted at the three saints, "What the hell are you talking about? Robin is the representative of the Burton family, he has higher standing than me! and you talk about him marrying little girls? Not even an ordinary saint deserves him... Only lady Mila can be put in the same sentence with him!"
when heard this, Robin who was about to leave, stood in his place, finally, this gained his attention! he then cast a glance towards Mila to see her reaction
Mila\'s unfocused gaze regained its luster and she looked toward the patriarch in shock
It was long ago that she decided that she would get to the peak of sainthood as fast as possible, then start seclusion to try and get the Fire Shards Minor law technique to the threshold of the third stage and perhaps become a sage herself... this plan will take her entire life, thus she had never thought about her marriage before.
\'As expected\'... Saint Edward sighed, this won\'t be easy...
Anger was clearly visible on the faces of the other three Saints, "Patriarch, I think you are overestimating your conditions here, Lady Mila is the daughter of a Duke, she has been the number one genius of the kingdom since she was ten, she recently broke through to the twenty-fifth level -the same as you- when she is barely 150 years old!
so please don\'t put her down * in the same sentence* with anyone, lady Mila is unique and will not be married to anyone that is lower than her in any aspect! Robin can choose any other unmarried girl and she will be his."
Patriarch Brian slapped his hand on the table in front of him angrily, "You arrogant bastard, did Galan send idiots to negotiate? You came crawling on your stomach to plead our son Robin\'s favor and now you\'re the one acting arrogantly?
Give me the name of a young man in the Eight Kingdoms or Four Empires that is better than our Robin, you will never find one!
Girls have to get married sooner or later, lady Mila, no matter how many thousands of years she waits, she will eventually marry someone, who will she choose at that time based on these high ambitions you idiots have? an emperor? You overestimate your family and overestimate your lady!
Do you think no other dukes have girls to marry? Leave the dukes... do you think if Robin proposed marriage to a princess of the royal family, they would refuse?
please listen carefully... I\'ve offered this to you for one reason and it is that you guys have treated Robin fairly when he stayed with you, it\'s an honor to you that I\'ve offered to connect your family with the one-of-a-kind person throughout history... If you don\'t appreciate it, then there\'s no need to continue talking about marriage further, let\'s continue our discussion when you find a Good commercial offer for Robin."
Then with *hmph* the patriarch returned to his seat and left them a chance to think and respond, but his angry attitude did not reveal the truth of what he was feeling...
the patriarch was jumping for joy inside him that Robin gave him the opportunity to act arrogantly and distract people from a Duke\'s family!
If this was in the past, he would have gone himself to get them something to drink!!
One of the three Saints stood up angrily and shouted, "Hmph, it looks like we\'re not welcome here, let\'s go!" And move to the door
When he looked behind him, he found Mila was still standing in her spot, looking confused...
Saint Edward was still setting relaxed with no intention to follow him... and the other two saints also hesitated, when he saw that he shouted at them "What the hell are you all waiting for? Are you really thinking of Mar-.." at this point he was interrupted by Mila\'s voice as she says:
"I agree."
Everyone in the room was shocked except for Saint Edward, even Robin looked at her strangely
One of the other two saints who had not yet moved spoke to her, "Lady Mila, you don\'t need to sacrifice anything for the family, and you don\'t need to agree or disagree now... Let\'s go back and have a meeting with counsel and discuss the matter further."
The look of confusion on Mila\'s face disappeared and was replaced by a confident expression, "No need, this is a personal decision and only I have the right to agree or disagree... and I agree."
"Girl, You know you don\'t have to do this..." Robin spoke to a mile
"I know I don\'t have to do anything, husband, but I want to do it... What? Am I not pretty enough for you?" Mila replied with a charming smile and a little wink
Robin was shocked by her response, she is already calling him husband before he even agree?! this girl is more shameless than he is!
He doesn\'t love her... but he doesn\'t hate her either.
Robin is not some ascetic that is hostile to the idea of having sex and getting married, even during his isolation in the cave he used to go to brothels constantly!
But marriage is not as normal as visiting a prostitute...
He is not looking for a girl with a big breast or a round butt to spend a night with!
Marriage is a sacred bond and a solid partnership that would last forever, how can such a decision be easy?
But at this point, he asked himself... If he should marry one girl in the world for any reason, whether based on intimacy and feelings of closeness or to form a strong partnership with another family, or for her intelligence, beauty, talent, or strength, etc... who would she be?
The answer is Mila... always Mila.
