LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Originally, Jun Chester thought that Melina Hale’s sudden appearance was to stand up for Penn Chester.

But now it seemed… Melina Hale was here to arbitrarily claim a son-in-law!

And the son-in-law she wanted to claim… was himself?

For a moment, Jun Chester’s emotions were in chaos.

Really, like mother like daughter!

Thelma Hale’s actions were so outrageous, so absurd, so provocative, it seemed that all of it was related to Melina Hale’s upbringing!

In fact, the one who was most confused right now was Penn Chester.

She originally thought that Melina Hale was her savior, but now it seemed that Melina Hale and Jun Chester…

Were they in cahoots?

What… exactly was going on?

Melina Hale! She wanted to acknowledge Jun Chester as her son-in-law?

And… what did she just say?

Eight years ago, Jun Chester took advantage of Thelma Hale? And he didn’t want to take responsibility?

This… how could it be?

What kind of existence was Thelma Hale?

Although Thelma Hale was a woman, she was the next clan leader of the Hale family!

She took a liking to Jun Chester?

Jun Chester… what merits did he have?

You should know that even the son of the Chester family clan leader, Pam Chester, who ranked third on the Divine Leaderboard, once proposed to the Hale family, Thelma Hale didn’t even give him a glance!

But while Penn Chester was so shocked, Melina Hale was looking at Jun Chester with a smile and spoke again.

“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore.”

“You may not know me, but it’s normal, as long as you remember Thelma Hale!”

“My precious daughter has missed you for eight years.”

“Many nights, she couldn’t sleep thinking about you, I as a mother, have been heartbroken!”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“In due course, after you and her get married, you must love her well, otherwise, I won’t agree.”

Jun Chester’s face was dark as he asked coldly.

“Where is Thelma Hale?”

Melina Hale’s smile grew wider.

“She’s in this city. I came here this time to deliver an invitation to you. In three days, there’s a Medical Conference in this city, you have to attend. Of course, the main purpose of attending the Medical Conference is to have a meal with the people of our Hale family, so that they can get to know you.”

Jun Chester squinted his eyes.

“Are you being a bit presumptuous with your words?”

Melina Hale was slightly taken aback, then laughed.

“Look at me, after years of high position, I am a bit out of touch. But… I think you better meet my precious daughter first. She said she is confident that you will fall in love with her at… no, upon second sight. Besides, she is determined to be with you, as a mother, what can I do? I can only support her.”

When she said this, Melina Hale paused, then added, “Oh, right, besides delivering the invitation, there’s another thing… I am here to apologize on behalf of my daughter for calling you before. It was rude and must have startled you and your friends.”

Upon hearing this, Penn Chester was so shocked that she seemed to forget to breathe.

What had Thelma Hale done to Jun Chester?

Her mother, Melina Hale, actually came to apologize in person?

Melina Hale… among the four major clans of the Dragon Alliance, she was known for being domineering and unyielding.

When had she ever seen her apologize to someone?

What on earth was going on?

But, no matter what happened, it now seemed that at least one thing could be confirmed.

Melina Hale had recognized Jun Chester!

Thelma Hale had also recognized Jun Chester as her future husband!

In other words… today, she was doomed!

At this moment, Jun Chester was still at a loss for words. He could never have imagined that the woman standing before him was Thelma Hale’s mother. More importantly, she was actually apologizing on behalf of Thelma Hale. It seemed as if he would appear petty if he did not accept her apology.

Melina Hale looked at Jun Chester with a smile, seeming to see his difficulty, and said, “You don’t have to accept the apology. After marrying Thelma Hale, you can handle her any way you want. After all, a married daughter is like water that’s been poured out; you can discipline her as you like. Besides, I’ve been too indulgent with Thelma over the years. As a mother, I always held back from disciplining her, but you’re different. You are her man, you can discipline and correct her as you see fit.”

Melina Hale sighed and continued, “However, I suggest that you go easy on her. Never be too harsh, or else, I would feel distressed.”

Jun Chester was left speechless.

Melina Hale pouted and asked, “What, even with my attitude, you still won’t forgive me? How about I kneel to you? I’ll fetch a cup of tea and toast it to you, my future son-in-law?”

Jun Chester was once again left speechless.

This woman, Melina Hale, was truly unpredictable. On the surface, she was apologizing, but in reality, she was clearly being sarcastic.

Jun Chester took a deep breath, for the first time he didn’t know what to say. Because Melina Hale was clearly an unreasonable woman!

Seeing that Jun Chester remained unmoved, Melina Hale said, “I’m really going to kneel!”

As she said this, Melina Hale was about to kneel before Jun Chester.

Almost reflexively, Jun Chester blurted out, “What are you doing? You… this is simply absurd!”

Melina Hale smiled charmingly, winked at Jun Chester, and said, “I knew you wouldn’t be so unreasonable. How could I let my future mother-in-law kneel to you? Okay, okay, since we’ve talked about it, everything’s fine. In the future, we’re all family. I’ll work to elect you as the leader of the Chester family. Then, no one will have anything to say about your marriage to Thelma.”

Jun Chester said sternly, “When did I agree to this marriage? My relationship with Thelma Hale is not what you think! And, I am already married!”

Melina Hale sighed and said, “I understand. I know Thelma is still eager and impatient right now. But, time will tell. Besides, you should understand the saying, ‘Familiarity breeds affection.’ As for the fact that you’re already married, that’s all up to you. If you want to divorce Miss Harding, you can. If not, that’s okay too. Thelma said she’s willing to be the lesser wife. And I’ve heard that you already have a son, that’s great! It saves my daughter the trouble of having to bear you a child. If you feel that one child is lonely in the future, that’s no problem. There are plenty of maids at home, you can have children with them, we don’t mind.”

Jun Chester was speechless, his forehead full of black lines.

For the first time in his life, he was encountering such an absurd situation!

Melina Hale continued, “Don’t judge my current thinking with a worldly perspective. I’m very magnanimous, and so is Thelma. As for status, it’s even less important. Our family is well-off, status or no status, it’s all the same. Life is only so many years, as long as you’re happy. Besides, even if you give Thelma the title of legal wife, if you don’t spend your nights with her, what use is the title to her? Don’t you think I, as a mother-in-law, make sense?”

Anyone else, after hearing Melina Hale’s words, would certainly be confused.

But Jun Chester… still remained rational.

Jun Chester frowned and said, “It’s impossible between me and Thelma Hale. This is not the ancient times. What are you talking about maids and main wives? This is absurd! Absolutely ridiculous!”

Melina Hale retorted, “Which man doesn’t want multiple wives and concubines? Are you not a man? Enough, I won’t beat around the bush anymore. Just say whether you agree to be with my daughter or not. If you agree, everything is settled. If not, I’ll stay here and won’t leave!”

Not only was Jun Chester dumbfounded.

Penn Chester and Landon Fuller, not far away, were also stunned.

Melina Hale… what kind of peculiar woman was she?

They had heard of men who would cling desperately to their mothers-in-law, begging them to marry their daughters. But they had never heard of a beautiful woman clinging desperately to a man, begging him to marry her daughter!

Melina Hale was determined to stick to Jun Chester, and her words were simply mind-blowing.

How could a woman be so shameless?

Seeing that Jun Chester didn’t respond, Melina Hale chuckled, “No matter what you say, my daughter won’t give up. Just agree to her.”

Jun Chester had never encountered such a woman.

After a long silence, Jun Chester took a deep breath and said, “Let’s have a fight. If you lose, stop bothering me. If I lose, I’ll give you a definite answer.”

Melina Hale was elated at the news, she laughed and asked, “So, if you lose, will you marry my daughter?”

Jun Chester didn’t respond.

Melina Hale persisted, “Is that what you mean?”

Jun Chester was exasperated.

He never expected to encounter such a person!

So, saving a person with a congenital defect eight years ago was just asking for trouble?

And it was a big trouble?

As Jun Chester was thinking this, Melina Hale said with a laugh, “Let’s not fight today. I’m afraid you’ll go back on your word after losing. Three days later, at the Medical Conference, in front of the four major clans of the Dragon Alliance, we’ll have a fight. If you win, everything I said today will be disregarded, and you’ll also receive a major gift. If you lose, I’m sorry, but you, Jun Chester, will be my son-in-law! How about that?”

Jun Chester coldly responded, “No good!”
