Chapter 890: Chapter 890: General Moore Gets Angry: In Your Dreams!
"Nonsense!" Sebastian Moore scolded Arnold, then continued in a stern voice, "You agreed to the marriage before, and now you’re backing out. Do you think marriage is child’s play!"
Mark looked at Sebastian Moore and took the blame himself, "Commander, about this matter..."
"Shut up, I’m not letting you speak!" Sebastian’s eagle-like sharp eyes swept over to Mark, coldly stating.
After saying this, Sebastian stood up from his chair.
Without even looking at Mark, he walked directly to Arnold, continuing in a cold voice, "This matter was personally arranged by your father with Ethan Sterling, and now you’re backing out, where does that leave your father’s face? Besides, both families are already preparing for the engagement!"
Arnold shrank back, trying to say something.
However, before she could speak, Sebastian’s cold voice cut in again, "Do you remember you are a soldier? A soldier must keep their word. How can you just back out once you’ve agreed? Is this how a soldier should act?"
Arnold looked at Sebastian, her voice still low, but her attitude unwavering, "Dad, I never agreed to marry Ethan Sterling the day before yesterday, I, I just didn’t oppose it."
Sebastian raised his hand in anger.
Arnold shrank her neck, continuing in a low voice, "You assumed I agreed and found Ethan Sterling without asking me, announcing the engagement between him and me."
Then Arnold looked at Mark beside her, speaking with unusually firm eyes, "The only person I want to marry has always been my boss, Laurant Foster!"
"No way!" Sebastian pointed at Mark, "Don’t even think about marrying this guy!"
Mark looked at Sebastian, interjecting, "Commander, it was my mistake before, now I..."
Sebastian glared at Mark, commanding, "Shut up, I order you to shut up!"
Afterward, Sebastian looked at Arnold, commanding her next, "Monica, listen to me, you must obediently marry Ethan Sterling!"
Sebastian looked at Mark, scoffing, "As for this guy, humph! He ignored your sincerity before, hurt you, rejected you, have you forgotten?"
Arnold: "..."
Her boss had ignored her feelings before, but that was unrequited love, and she had been willing.
Moreover, hasn’t her boss fallen for her now, isn’t that enough?
Even though a soldier should obey their superior’s orders, Mark was never one to blindly obey, especially when it concerned his and Arnold’s happiness.
So, even though he was ordered not to speak, Mark still addressed Sebastian, "Commander, even if you order me to shut up, this involves mine and Arnold’s happiness, so I can’t follow your order."
Sebastian, furious, pointed at Mark, "You..."
Mark looked at Sebastian, apologizing sincerely, "I’m sorry, Commander, all of this was my fault before. It was because I didn’t understand my own heart, which led to Arnold being hurt."
Continuing, Mark spoke earnestly, "If the Commander is displeased with me, you can punish me in any way. But please don’t marry Arnold to Ethan Sterling, because Arnold won’t be happy that way!"
"Humph!" Sebastian scoffed, "Unhappy marrying Ethan Sterling, and you think she’d be happy marrying you?!"
"Yes!" Mark replied without doubt, firmly.
His mischievous, profound eyes tenderly, affectionately looked at Arnold, solemnly continuing, "Commander, it was my blindness that made me not see Arnold’s goodness before. But now I’ve realized my own heart, I care for Arnold, and I will never let her down again!"
Arnold looked at Mark in shock.
Even though before coming here, she already understood Mark’s feelings.
Even though Mark had already kissed her, clearly and dominantly stated that from now on, she was his girl.
But hearing Mark say he liked her, like this, was a first.
While Arnold was in shock, Sebastian’s cold, unhidden angry voice sounded, "Now you’re not blind in the eyes or the heart?"
Without waiting for Mark to answer, and giving him no time to respond, Sebastian coldly and decisively said, "You better kill that thought, there’s no way Monica will marry you! She might marry anyone else, but not you, you brat!"
Ending, Sebastian dismissed them coldly, "Humph!"
Then Sebastian turned around, returned to his desk, and sat down.
He looked at Mark and Arnold with cold eyes, "Now, both of you can leave!"
Mark and Arnold stood there unmoving.
"Commander, please withdraw the order for Arnold to marry Ethan Sterling, I must marry Arnold!" Mark looked at Sebastian, speaking with determination, stubbornness.
Arnold’s small hand reached out, gripping Mark’s large hand.
She looked at Sebastian with determined eyes, speaking right after Mark, "Dad, I believe in my boss, he will definitely bring me happiness!"
Sebastian’s attitude was equally firm.
He looked at them coldly, pointing at the door, "Get out!"
Mark and Arnold spoke simultaneously, "Commander/Dad!"
Sebastian’s demeanor unchanged, still with a cold face, "Get out! This is not open for discussion!"
Finally, with no choice, Mark and Arnold had to leave.
In Mark’s Humvee, Arnold gazed at Mark with furrowed brows, asking, "What do we do, boss? Elder Moore is as unyielding as a rock, and the engagement with Ethan Sterling is..."
Mark’s expression was dark as water.
"Humph! No one but me can marry you!" Mark looked at Arnold, "Since it won’t work with the Commander, we’ll take another route."
Arnold’s crafty eyes lit up, "You mean with Ethan Sterling?"
"Mm." Mark nodded, "I refuse to believe it, if I can’t handle the Commander, I can’t handle that Sterling kid!"
Arnold looked at Mark.
The boss looked like he was ready to pick a fight with Ethan Sterling!
Thinking of Mark and Ethan fighting over her, Arnold suddenly felt like a femme fatale.
But Arnold didn’t want to be a troublemaker.
She looked at Mark, quickly speaking, "Ethan grew up with me, he’s my buddy, my good brother, maybe I should talk to him first?"
"Humph!" Mark sneered, "You see him as a buddy, a good brother, but I don’t think he sees you that way!"
Arnold: "..."
