Charlotte’s face turned unpleasant, “Frank, what do you mean by this?”
Frank smiled, “Charlotte, although my family used to have a little money in the past, we were just a branch of the Duncan family and didn’t have much power…”
“But things are different now.”
“My father now controls billions in fixed assets, and as his son, I have some say in the Duncan family.”
“I now have the power to make you happy.”
He sounded confident.
Emma was also very polite, showing enthusiasm, “Oh, Mr. Duncan, you’re being too formal. Please, have a seat.”
The members of the Pittman family were also very surprised. They had heard a bit about the changes in the Duncan family. Could the person before them be the new young master of the Duncan family?
Indeed, they were meeting a big shot today!
Russell quickly stepped forward, showing extreme respect with a hint of flattery in his tone.
“Mr. Duncan, hello, I am Charlotte’s grandfather, Russell. It’s a great honor for the Pittman family to meet such a distinguished figure like you today. It’s truly a great privilege for our family.”
Upon hearing Russell’s words, Frank was also very pleased and quickly put on a humble appearance, “I dare not, I dare not. You are Charlotte’s grandfather, so naturally, you are my grandfather as well.”
“It should be me who feels honored to meet you.”
“Mr. Duncan, you’re being too polite.”
Charlotte angrily said, “Frank, what are you trying to pretend with me?”
“What does my grandfather have to do with you?”
Emma immediately tapped her, scolding, “Charlotte, how can you speak to Mr. Duncan like this? You two need to get along well in the future, you know?”
“Mom’s judgment of people can never go wrong. Mr. Duncan is really great!”
Russell also reprimanded with a stern face, “Charlotte, Mr. Duncan is a talented and outstanding young man. It’s your great fortune that he fancies you. Shouldn’t you be grateful?”
“Is it too much to call me grandfather?”
“You don’t know how to behave!”
He then put on a grandfatherly demeanor.
Frank looked at him gratefully, thinking to himself that this old man really knew how to handle things.
Charlotte coldly said, “Grandfather, my personal lifelong matters, I will decide on my own without bothering you.”
Russell, feeling his face being challenged, immediately became furious, “Nonsense! You are my granddaughter! I am the head of the family! Your marriage should be decided by me! Whoever I choose for you, you must marry!”
Frank also spoke confidently, “Charlotte, I am now one of the highest-ranking individuals in Stresall. Being my partner will be the best decision of your life!”
“Otherwise…”
“You will regret it!”
He confidently said this with a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
Now, he can choose any woman he wants, but she still doesn’t know what’s good for her!
Charlotte couldn’t be bothered with him and directly picked up a box of money and threw it out, “Take your dirty money and get out!”
“You…”
Seeing this scene, Frank, Russell, and the other members of the Pittman family were almost driven crazy!
Is this woman, Charlotte, out of her mind?
If Mr. Duncan is interested in her, it’s her good luck. Yet she still dares to treat Mr. Duncan like this, unforgivable! Most importantly…
Once Mr. Duncan marries Charlotte, they will benefit as well! The entire Pittman family will rise with their success! This is what they care about the most! As for whether Charlotte is willing or happy…
What does it have to do with them?
As long as they can get what they want, it’s all good!
Russell smiled at Frank and said, “Mr. Duncan, I’m truly sorry for this moment. My granddaughter has always had a temper since she was young. Please forgive her.”
“You are interested in Charlotte?”
Frank spoke up, “Yes, I like Charlotte and have been pursuing her sincerely for three years.”
Upon hearing this, Russell’s eyes lit up, “Mr. Duncan is talented and devoted. I agree to this marriage! As long as you are willing, Charlotte can be your wife at any time!”
In the face of profit, he chose to sacrifice Charlotte’s happiness as a bargaining chip, hoping to use the power of the Duncan family to help the Pittman family rise again.
“Really?” Frank was overjoyed.
Russell assured, “As the head of the Pittman family, I have the authority to decide on family matters and marriage. If I say yes, then it’s a yes.”
“No one can object!”
