Chapter 11
Griffith agreed with his brother. “We don’t have a problem with you guys going on your honeymoon, but Mary is an adult now. I don’t think she needs our care. Everyone has their own things to do. Can’t we just leave each other alone?”
Hugh and Jayce didn’t say anything.
Because they knew that Henry hadn’t finished his sentence.
Sure enough, Henry said again, “I don’t care what you are busy with, and I don’t care how you manage your time. I only ask one thing of you.”
Henry’s gaze swept across the faces of his four sons. “Let Mary spend a month with the seven of you. This month can be considered a trial period to cultivate a relationship with you alone, and to let you experience how it feels to finally have a sister.”
Lastly, Henry’s gaze stopped on Mary’s face, and he revealed a gentle smile. “Mary, sweetie, what do you think of this arrangement? Will it be a problem?”
All eyes fell on Mary.
Mary felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles.
Mary felt the warning glares!
Mary was pretty much shot dead by the glares!
Mary, despite being the party involved, was also the last to know of Henry’s arrangement!
Of course, she didn’t agree!
Who would want to spend a month alone with them?!
She just wanted to be free, okay?
However, her task now was to get in touch with Monroe Hall, and she just happened to offend him, which made him very upset.
Mary was still worried that she had no way to start, so she had to hesitate at this moment…
Such a good opportunity, should she give it up?
Mary didn’t answer immediately.
Henry decided, “Okay, it’s decided then! Diana and I are tired. We have to catch the flight early tomorrow morning. We have to go and rest.”
After Henry said his piece, he turned and was about to leave. Monroe seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and his gloomy face exploded, “Daddy, aren’t you going too far!? We didn’t agree at all!”

Hugh finally said, “Daddy, we respect your marriage to Diana, but please respect our lives. We can’t accept Mary, and we won’t agree to live alone with her for a month!”
Griffith nodded in agreement.
Only Jayce sat there with his legs crossed, not saying a word.
Mary knew that this was probably the only chance she had to get in touch with Monroe Hall!
She pulled her little face, feeling wronged.
“Henry, forget it. You Don’t have to force them. We should indeed have our own lives. I’m still the same as before. I should go back to work at the publishing house. Today was like a dream… I’m very happy, thank you.”
Mary felt that her acting skills had become better.
Hearing that, Diana, who had been quiet for the whole night, finally could not help but go up and hug her daughter.
“Oh, my baby, you’ve been wronged! Mommy originally wanted your brothers to take care of you and help you adapt to the Hall family life as soon as possible, but it seems that it’s not possible… why don’t you accompany mommy on her honeymoon?”
Diana was reluctant to part with Mary because she also wanted to renew the old relationship she had with her daughter.
But Henry’s words were also right. The relationship between a brother and sister was also very important.

Moreover, they could help Mary gain a foothold in the upper class of New York society faster.
Diana’s tears made Henry anxious.
“Darling, what nonsense are you talking about? How can we bring Mary along on our honeymoon? Don’t worry, if they don’t agree, I’ll write off my business empire for Mary to inherit! I’ll make sure these brats don’t get a single cent!”
Although Henry said it in anger, it still shocked everyone present!
Even Mary felt that Henry was crazy!
If he dared give it to her, she wouldn’t dare take it!
