“What’s wrong?” Mr. Edmin looked worried. “Is it about the company?”
“You should know that I have successfully asked for Jiang’s grandfather’s permission to propose to Snow,” Terrence Edmin looked coldly at Mr. Edmin. “Now Snow is officially my fiancée, so if anything happens to her, it will be a big deal for the Luo family!”
“What exactly are you trying to say?” Mr. Edmin said he didn’t understand.
He frowned slightly and looked at his son, “Can you just be clear about it?”
“Edward Edmin went to threaten her and almost hurt her. How do you plan to resolve this?” Terrence Edmin said, with a hint of helplessness in his smile. “Actually, I wanted to handle this myself, but he’s your son, so I had to come and ask for your opinion out of respect for you.”
Although he was smiling, the pressure in his aura made Mr. Edmin’s expression instantly change.
“Terrence Edmin, do you have any evidence to support what you’re saying?” Mr. Edmin really didn’t know how to handle this.
“Of course I do.”
Terrence Edmin directly threw a USB drive in front of Mr. Edmin. “All the evidence you need is in here. And why do you need evidence? Do you not know what kind of person your son is?”
There was a hint of mockery in his eyes. “Father, you know all too well the danger I’ve faced in the past few years, but every time my mother asks you for an explanation, you dodge the question with ‘need for evidence’. This play has been staged too many times, and it’s honestly quite boring.”
“You…” Mr. Edmin didn’t expect Terrence Edmin to be so straightforward and disrespectful.
He gritted his teeth, trying to explain himself.
However, Terrence Edmin didn’t want to give him a chance to explain, so he simply smiled and got up to leave.
Mr. Edmin looked at the USB drive and, after some thought, reached out to take it.

Terrence Edmin and Snow Cecy’s wedding was prepared at the fastest speed possible.
Although the preparation time was short, everything was top-notch, and Terrence Edmin personally oversaw everything. He wouldn’t allow any flaws in his wedding.
The wedding was set for the end of July.
Although by this time the lavender fields had mostly withered, Terrence Edmin had people cultivate a batch for the wedding.
On the eve of the wedding, shocking news came out from the Edmin family.
The second son of the Edmin family, Edward Edmin, has been expelled from the family and left France without Terrence Edmin’s permission, and is forbidden from ever setting foot on French soil again.
Although it was well-known that Edward Edmin and Terrence Edmin had always been in a hostile relationship, Terrence Edmin’s actions still surprised many with their severity.
Everyone was speculating as to what had caused Terrence Edmin to abandon his usual decorum.
When Snow Cecy heard the news, she immediately called Terrence Edmin.
“Your command?” she asked in astonishment, biting her finger.
“Not me!” Terrence Edmin chuckled. “Do you think I have that kind of authority? It should be the duke who does this kind of thing.”
“So, it’s your father?” Snow Cecy was even more surprised. She remembered that had always leaned towards Edward Edmin, yet he now banished his youngest son from France. What had happened to make him change his mind?
“Yes, he issued the command himself, so Edward Edmin had no way to struggle or refute it. He has already packed his bags and will be leaving tonight.”
Although he was expelled from the family, Mr. Edmin had still arranged a place for his youngest son to go, so Edward Edmin wouldn’t be left with nowhere to turn.
“Oh,” Snow Cecy felt much more relieved.
This way, both Snow Cecy and Terrence Edmin would have fewer troubles.
“So, now you just need to focus on preparing for the wedding and become the most beautiful bride with the best appearance…” Terrence Edmin’s tone gradually became gentle, and he smiled, “Snow, no one can hurt you anymore…”
“Okay…” Snow Cecy smiled and nodded in agreement.
After hanging up the phone, Snow Cecy was overjoyed.
That persistent troublemaker Edward Edmin had finally left, and she wouldn’t have to avoid anything anymore, nor would she need bodyguards to accompany her every time she went out!
Before the wedding, Snow Cecy had a meal alone with Mrs. Luo.
It was Mrs. Luo who had invited Snow Cecy out.
Although the relationship between future mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was a bit awkward, Snow Cecy wasn’t nervous because Mrs. Edmin didn’t put on airs.
“Do you know why Edward Edmin was sent away?” Mrs. Edmin suddenly brought up the matter with a mocking smile during their meal.
“Why?”
Snow Cecy looked at Mrs. Edmin with a puzzled expression, her face full of curiosity. “Wasn’t it because he made a lot of mistakes in India over the years?”
“It’s because of you. Terrence Edmin told his father about Edward’s behavior towards you in the bridal shop, so his father sent him away. After all, he was afraid that this time bomb would do something even more outrageous later.” Mrs. Edmin’s eyes were proud. “You helped me solve a big problem.”
“This is something Edward Edmin did wrong. It has nothing to do with me, Auntie. You’re wrong,” Snow Cecy quickly corrected Mrs. Edmin’s words.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Edmin looked at her with some doubt. “Why? Are you trying to distance yourself from this matter?”
“No, that’s not what I meant. I just think that Edward Edmin got what he deserved,” Snow Cecy smiled helplessly.
She didn’t expect to be blamed for this.
Feeling a little helpless, Snow Cecy rubbed the back of her head and looked at Mrs. Edmin with a slightly distant expression. “You might think that the Edmin family has no sense of familial bonds. The mother and son don’t look like mother and son, the father and son don’t look like father and son, and the husband and wife don’t look like husband and wife. But we don’t want it to be this way. The situation has developed to this point and everyone feels helpless! You’ve taught Terrence Edmin how to love someone, and I’m grateful to you.”
Mrs. Edmin understood her thoughts and laughed at herself before raising her glass to Snow Cecy. “He has also brought many changes to me. We have redeemed each other…” Snow Cecy smiled and clinked glasses with Mrs. Edmin, whispering, “So, don’t worry, I will live well with him.”
“Uh-huh…” Mrs. Edmin nodded in satisfaction. Indeed, her son’s judgment was spot-on.
The dinner allowed Snow Cecy to understand Mrs. Edmin better. She could understand Edward Edmin’s hatred for her, but she could also understand why Mrs. Edmin treated Edward Edmin that way. After all, to her, Edward Edmin was the intruder, and it was normal for her to be wary and defensive.
Before her wedding, Alice, arrived in France with Martin King. Thomas Reagan, who had been receiving treatment for a hand injury in Switzerland, also came along. “Thomas, how is your hand recovering?” Snow Cecy anxiously looked at Thomas Reagan’s hand, which was still wrapped in a bandage, and quietly asked.
