Chapter 30: Will Continue To Refuse
“You’ve had enough of playing with women. Your age is very ready to get married, Arthur.”
“I-don’t want to!” Arthur flatly refused.
The corner of his dad’s lips twitched at the son’s disrespectful refusal. “You ... How long are you going to keep asking me to marry?!” snapped Albern.
“Dad too! How long will you keep telling me to marry?!” Arthur replied not wanting to lose.
Albern sighed heavily, having a child like Arthur did require more energy because it was really tiring. “Don’t you want your mom to have the grandson, huh? Don’t you pity our age?” Andrew asked now trying in a pleading way.
“Then you can get Angela to marry first,” Arthur suggested lightly.
“Your sister is still continuing her studies!”

“Anyway, I don’t want you to arrange an arranged marriage for me like before. It would be a waste, Dad. Because I don’t want to get married yet,” Arthur said very firmly, showing that he was really serious.
“Then when are you getting married?” asked Albern still stubbornly.
“Who knows.” freeweb novel.com
“You didn’t give any certainty how your dad and mom could keep waiting!” said Albern again, his eldest son always made his patience run out.
“Listen to me, Dad. If you keep forcing me to marry and I comply with your request, what will happen is that the divorce rate in this country will increase rapidly,” Arthur said.
Albern couldn’t say anything anymore, his son was really beyond expectation.
“Never mind, Dad. Let me enjoy my life first. Besides, I’m still happy with what I have. I’ll get married if I want, you know I don’t like being forced,” Arthur continued, sipping his americano coffee.
Previously, Albern had often arranged his son’s matchmaking with several women who he thought would suit Arthur. However, what happened was that Arthur dated them only briefly after getting what he wanted. Even though Arthur did was a jerk, but no one was angry with his son. Albern was surprised that he had a child who was too clever to play with women.
“Okay. I’ll wait again,” said Albern.
“I didn’t ask dad to wait?!” Arthur shrieked because Albern still didn’t want to understand what his son wanted.
Albern looked at Arthur as sharp as a samurai sword. “I’m going to say this because I’m still your dad. If you keep playing with women, one day you will feel what they feel,” advised Albern.
Arthur raised his eyebrows, impressed by his dad’s words. He also understands the risks. The corner of the man’s lips lifted, smiling very sweetly. “Thanks for the advice, Dad. I’ll always remember that.”
Albern was certainly very worried about the life of his eldest son. There was no way his life would go on like that. Deep in his heart, he and his wife always hope that the child will find true love that will make Arthur turn into a better man.
“The inauguration ceremony for Camille’s branch office is coming soon, don’t forget you have to come. The kid keeps asking you to come,” said Albern as he got up from his seat.
“W-what? Do you know? Will you come too?” Arthur asked.
Albern furrowed his brows, surprised. “Why are you panicking like that? Of course, I will come,” replied the dad. Shit, Arthur forgot that his dad was close to Camille’s father.
Even though he was planning to take Kalea there, for some reason seeing the girl who seemed excited when doing something new made Arthur also entertained. However, if Albern came to the event, of course the plan to bring Kalea was automatically canceled. Not the right time to meet them. His dad would definitely ask Kalea weird questions and think that Arthur would be serious about the girl. After that, Albert would again urge him to marry. So far, Arthur has never introduced a woman personally to his family.
No, no. Arthur really didn’t want that to happen. He can be crazy. freewebnov el.com
“You came, didn’t you?” asked Albern again as Arthur continued to daydream.
“Y-yes, I’m coming,” Arthur replied nervously.
Albern was a little suspicious, but he didn’t want to make too much of a fuss. “Ah, by the way, doesn’t Camille like you? Why don’t you guys-”
“If Dad wants Camille to be one of my toys too, I’m fine if I have to marry her. It’s just that it’s going to be troublesome for our company-to-company relationship because it’s a personal matter,” Arthur quickly cut in. He knew what his dad was talking about. He knew exactly how Camille was. The woman was very spoiled and possessive. And Arthur was the laziest to have a bond with such a troublesome woman.
“You really ... where did your unfaithfulness come from? Very different from me and your mom,” Albern grumbled.
“Eh~ really? But what mom told me was actually the same dad as me. Before you were with mom, you also had many women,” Arthur replied with a very sweet smile.
Albern seemed unable to reply anymore, he turned his face to the side as if he had been beaten badly by his own child.
“B-but I’m not like that anymore after meeting your mom!” Albert defended himself.
“And I haven’t found anyone like a mom yet!” Arthur said, not want to lose.
On the other hand, Juan looked at the two men so tiredly. They haven’t finished fighting over a marriage. The father who continues to force his son to get married quickly, while the son doesn’t want to get married and still wants to play with many women.
“Just tell Juan to get married! Didn’t Dad treat him like your own son?!” Arthur said, throwing it at Juan. The man with the ash gray hair looked confused and did not accept that his name was suddenly being linked.
“You rebellious child, instead throw your blame on someone else!” shouted Albern as he hit Arthur’s arm with a wooden stick.
“What did I do wrong?!” shrieked Arthur.
Juan sighed heavily, this is how the two meet. Fights more often because of marriage. Because of that, Arthur rarely returned to his parents’ house.
“Gezz, I’m getting older when I talk to you. Juan, please make my son sane,” said Albern as he walked out of the room. Juan smiled faintly as he ushered Albern off without Arthur following. The man ruffled his black hair and lay down on the soft sofa.
For some reason, if he was mentioned about love and marriage, it congested his heart. Arthur took his cell phone from his trouser pocket. He called someone who could accompany him tonight.
[Hello?]
“Tonight, let’s go to the usual place.”
[What? Today I can’t because my nephew is coming.]
“I’m your nephew too.”
[It’s still noon, Arthur. Don’t be crazy.]
Arthur snorted in annoyance. “I’m going crazy, then I’ll just take Zeline.”
[I’ll try to come. Don’t get so drunk like that time to rape your sugar baby.]
“... don’t bring it up again.”
After that, Arthur hung up the call. He just wanted to forget what happened earlier by having fun at the club.
