This resulted in the current situation.

At this moment, the third young master of the Smith family actually disregarded his morals and broke off his engagement with Susan! Moreover, it was said that it was because of a mistress.

Once such a report was published, everyone in the Murica blamed the Smith family and Erwin for being unkind. How could they abandon their original fiancée?

Moreover, it was for the sake of a mistress.

The Smith family’s company was affected by such negative news.

Furthermore, at this time, the Jones and Adams families of the Murica were also causing trouble for the Smith family!

Jimmy Jones and Alex Adams were once Kathleen’s underlings. However, they had a conflict with Jonah Smith, and nearly caused Jonah’s death.

They were sent to prison.

Then, just as they were about to escape…

John chased after them to the forest of death and took their lives!

The Benjamin had come to the Jones and Adams families to recount the events of the past. He told them, “It was that brat, Jonah!”

“It was clearly Jonah who was at fault first!”

“The young masters of the Jones and Adams families were merely defending themselves, but the Smith family used their power to oppress them. They were imprisoned and tortured, and…” They were heartbroken.

He told the leaders of the Jones and Adams families about the crimes of the Smith family and how the Smith family had completely disregarded them all these years.

The Millan family was an aristocratic family second only to the Smith family in the Murica.

The Jones and Adams families were the same. They were also aristocratic families in the Murica. Although they were slightly inferior to the Smith family in the Murica, they were still extremely powerful.

Back then, the Smith family had caused the death of their family’s children, but they did not even give an explanation. They had indeed gone too far and had completely disregarded them!

Furthermore, over the years, the Smith family had actually gradually declined in Murica.

Although they still maintained their status as one of the top families in Murica, their strength was no longer at its peak. They were basically a camel that was on the verge of dying.

Now that the Millan family had pulled some strings, the Jones and Adams families immediately agreed to join forces to suppress the Smith family! This would pose an incalculable threat to the Smith family.

Albert felt a sense of crisis.

He immediately contacted Benjamin, wanting to make peace.

However, Benjamin’s attitude was very firm. He said that unless he gave his daughter an explanation and allowed Erwin to marry Susan as his wife, he would not stop!

As for the Jones and Adams families, there was no possibility of making peace at all.

The three major families of the Murica, the Millan, Jones, and Adams families, were trying to steal the Smith family’s business in the Murica.

This caused the stock of the Smith family’s company to fall again and again.

These three families were actually starting to purchase the shares of the Smith family.

Seeing that the losses of the Smith family were getting bigger and bigger, if this continued, they might be swallowed up!

In order to quell this farce, Albert demanded that Erwin marry Susan!

However, after all these years, Erwin was no longer under Albert’s control.

For example, the Smith family’s business in Murica was deteriorating day by day. On the contrary, Erwin’s business in Hillford was thriving.

Albert had long wanted to move his business back to Hilford.

Although Erwin did not object directly, he had been dragging his feet.

Albert’s decision to send people into Erwin’s company would only result in him being ignored.

Albert asked his other sons to set up a branch in Hillford.

Erwin would not do anything out of the ordinary, but his two good brothers, John and Carlos, were always looking for trouble.

They directly kicked his other sons out.

Other than Erwin’s business, the other members of the Smith family were unable to take root in Hillford’s business.

Erwin said to Albert, “If you insist on a marriage alliance…” “Father, you can do it too!”

“After all, you don’t mind having another wife, do you?”

Albert was furious. “You bastard, how can you say such things?”

However, faced with his son, who was getting increasingly out of his control, Albert was really helpless. He could only threaten Erwin with the only thing that Erwin cared about.

“If you’re willing to listen to me and marry Susan, I’ll allow your mother’s ashes to be moved to the Smith family’s ancestral grave and acknowledge her identity.”

“Erwin, this is what your mother wanted the most when she was alive! She wanted me to acknowledge her identity even until the day she died. She even dreamed of entering the Smith family’s ancestral grave after she died.”

“You won’t disappoint her and miss out on this one and only opportunity, right?”

Erwin fell silent.

His mother was a mistress in the eyes of others.

She was a lowly woman who loved her father dearly.

The moment she met her father was the tragic beginning of her life. However, she was unable to extricate herself from it. It was as if she had said to herself, “Erwin, this is all I can do for the rest of my life.”

“Although I know that I love the wrong person, I love him!”

Erwin still remembered what his mother looked like when she was on the verge of death.

She held onto his hand tightly and glared at him. “Erwin, you have to be obedient. You have to be your father’s son!”

“Be filial to him…”

“If possible, Erwin, do me a favor.”

“I really want to be your father’s wife. I want to be able to enter the Smith family’s ancestral grave after I die and not become a lonely ghost with no one to rely on.”

“I want to become your father’s wife. I don’t want to be unable to get rid of my status as a mistress even after I die! Your father can marry so many wives, so why can’t he marry me?” Erwin’s mother loved Erwin very much.

For the sake of her beloved man, she abandoned all her dignity and hid outside. She was criticized and reviled by others. She did not care about any of these.

She wanted Erwin to acknowledge her.

She wished that she could become a part of the Smith family.

However…

Erwin still remembered how his mother died with her eyes wide open. He remembered how much she yearned for him. He also recalled that his father was not even in front of his mother at the last moment of her life.

He said coldly, “You’re not worthy of mentioning my mother to me!”

“Yes, I may not be worthy, but your mother loves me! She has wanted my love and recognition all her life. She wants you to be respectful to me, isn’t that right?”

Erwin was speechless

His aura was very cold.

Even though it was only through the phone, Albert could feel the coldness.

“As long as you can marry Susan, I promise I’ll keep my word. I’ll immediately move your mother’s ashes to the ancestral grave.”

“I’ll also acknowledge her identity and tell everyone that she is my wife!”
