A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO

“This is Heaven’s retribution against you!”
Every word that Alton spoke struck at Terence’s vulnerability. His main objective was to force Terence to leave.
However, Terence did not give in. Instead, he stood outside the door with a somber expression, refusing to budge.
Suddenly, Alfred’s ears perked up before he vanished into the darkness of the night.
In the next moment, he appeared in front of the young girl, who had been hiding behind the stone, secretly eavesdropping on the
conversation.
“Ah!”
Marilyn shrieked in surprise as she fell on her backside due to his sudden appearance.
“Didn’t Old Mr. Quillen tell you to wait in the car? What are you doing here?”
Alfred narrowed his eyes as he scrutinized her, emitting a menacing aura.
“I-I...” Marilyn was terrified, shuffling backward on her buttocks. Her mind was racing as she knew that Alfred was truly capable
of harming her!
“Alfred, let her go,” Terence spoke just in time, forcing Alfred to stop.
Meanwhile, Marilyn felt as if she had narrowly escaped a disaster as she quickly scurried away.
Her heart was pounding with a mix of fear and excitement!
She hadn’t intended to eavesdrop on any secrets. Frankly, she didn’t even know that these upper-class elites would consider
such casual conversation a secret. Even though she had no clue what had happened, she couldn’t help but wonder why they
were being so secretive. It’s not like whatever they’re saying is extremely serious, right?
She just wanted to understand Terence better, even if it meant putting her life in danger!
“Alton, since I’ve returned, at least invite me in for tea!” Terence pleaded again.
When Alton saw that Terence refused to leave, he sighed and opened the iron gate to let him in.

There were two large dogs in the yard.
However, the two beasts didn’t bark when they saw Terence and Alfred. It was as if they recognized them.

Alton sighed as they entered the building, saying wearily, “Terence, why have you returned? Don’t you know that every time you
do, it brings about bloodshed and chaos?”
18 years ago, Tony suffered from depression and ultimately died in a car accident. After a police investigation, the accident was
classified as a suicide case.
Terence sent his son back to his hometown for burial, which was the last time he returned to his
hometown. Yet, even that had attracted mysterious forces and a horde of assassins. They were all after Tony’s possession
before his death-the Heart of the Sun!
Ever since that incident occurred, Terence had always done his best to avoid visiting his hometown.
Over the years, he claimed to be afraid of others mocking the Quillen family for having no heirs. Regardless, he understood that
deep down, whenever he stepped foot in his hometown, it would inevitably attract people, people who wanted to get their hands
on the Heart of the Sun to satisfy their greed.
Recently, Alton’s mining site had been repeatedly targeted by several forces. Over time, he came to realize that someone was
eyeing the Heart of the Sun, thinking that he possessed it.
Still, Alton remained indifferent no matter how much noise these people made. He knew that all their efforts would be in vain as
long as Terence didn’t return to Anchortown.
Unfortunately, he had never expected that Terence would have the audacity to come back to Anchortown after so many years!
He had deliberately tried to drive Terence away earlier. However, all his efforts were in vain. So, he could only grit his teeth and
let the man in, interested to know what the man was up to this time.
“I know! But we’re all getting old. Eventually, that responsibility will have to be passed on to the younger generation!” Terence
sighed solemnly.

“Who?” Alton asked.
“My granddaughter and my grandson-in-law!”
Terence smiled and remarked, “I have high hopes for them. They will definitely surpass me.”
Alton was also curious about what kind of man his grandson-in-law was, considering Terence’s confidence.
As for Mackenzie, he had seen her 18 years ago. She was indeed intelligent and astute, with a cold and discerning
temperament. She seemed like someone who could handle things calmly and achieve great things.
“Why don’t you bring your grandson-in-law over tonight? That way, I can see him for myself instead of just taking your word for
it.” Alton joked, “We’ll see if he can give the Quillen family the male heir it needs!”
“Haha, he definitely can!”
Terence firmly believed that one day he would have a grandchild to carry on the family name, even though Emmanuel had yet to
prove himself in that regard.
“I have already sent him my location, and he will be here soon. Then, you can also have a good look and see if I have made a
mistake!”
“Haha, that’s great!”
Alton was filled with anticipation.
He and Terence had been childhood friends. Moreover, Terence eventually became his brother-in-law. Of course, he also hoped
that the Quillen family’s lineage could continue, even if not in the traditional
sense.
Just as they finished speaking, there was a commotion outside the door.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Someone was pounding on the door.
“Could it be your grandson-in-law?”
