Chapter 794
Jayne finally broke the silence, "Dailey, we've never pressured you. We've even asked you before if you wanted
more tto think about which path to choose, and we've let you be for all these years." "But this freedom
wasn't meant for you to fall for a woman and go against us. It was for you to make the choices you're meant to
make."
"The Clarkson legacy is your burden to bear, it's the hand you were dealt at birth, and that can't change."
Dailey remained silent after hearing this.
They weren't wrong, and neither was he.
It was a stalemate.
Madge spoke up again, "The Clarkson family has thrived through generations because we've all made sacrifices
to keep it that way. We've invested everything in raising you, hoping to see a return on that investment." "You're
meant to marry a woman of significant standing, to share the Clarkson responsibilities, to make the same
sacrifices we did. That's your duty."

"We've already indulged you by letting you date her for a year."
"Dailey, you don't have a choice in this matter, and throwing a fit won't change anything."
Dailey understood this.
Without their guidance and care, he wouldn't have becthe man he is today, nor would he have met
Christine and fallen in love with her.
But he couldn't let Christine be treated as ssecret mistress either.
"Family background shouldn't be the absolute standard. She's exceptional, you'd see if you just got to know her."
Madge laughed, "We've known about her since you started this affair. We know everything about her, probably
more than you do." Dailey's lips tightened.
He and Christine were in the thick of their romance, not yet at the stage of delving into each other's pasts.
"Just because of her father, she can't be your wife," Madge said, glancing at Gregory.
Speaking up, Gregory added, "Legally, she has no ties to her father anymore."
"In the future, she won't need to support him or have any contact."
Madge's smile carried a deeper meaning, "If it were that simple, the tabloids would be out of business." "Family
bonds aren't so easily severed."
"The diversity, complexity, and sometimes the repulsiveness of human nature are beyond your imagination."
"Think about it. A father who's a gambler and drunkard, with no source
come, sees his daughter
marrying into wealth. Do you think he won't cknocking?"
"If he had any conscience, any guilt, he wouldn't have treated his daughter that way to begin with."
"And why should we leave ourselves open to such a risk?"
"Onceps into the Clarkson e eyeing the Clarkson et

wealth
will use this as leverage against us."
"Why would we take such a risk when we can avoid it?"
Truth be told, this issue had been dragging on for too long.
Gregory was getting restless, let alone Dailey, the man in the middle of it all.
He suggested, "It seems we can't
sew. Let's put it aside
and
on sorting out Nelly's
situation first."
Meanwhile, Christine shared Madge's words with Jane.
