Love At The Wrong Table

"I don't want your money. Everything will be decided by Tommy himself. If he chooses to be with you, I'll let him go with you..."
Upon hearing this, both Tommy and Alessandra became anxious. Luckily, Tia had more to say. "If he chooses me, I'll raise him well, even if it means enduring hardships."
"I want Ms. Franks!" Tommy almost instantly embraced Tia. He knew very well that
Abellyn was lazy, and living with her would mean going hungry often. On the other hand, Tia was gentle, hardworking, and skilled in various ways, always making delicious food. So, even without a blood relation, he liked Tia.
"Oh, you little rascal-" Blake and Abellyn were surprised by Tommy's decision. But before Blake could finish his sentence, Emmanuel intervened. "Now, do you have anything more to say? Whether legally or according to Tommy's wishes, he's following Tia!"
"Hey, you can't do that!" Blake interjected anxiously. "The kid hasn't lived with us yet. He doesn't know how good we can be to him, so he definitely won't choose us now! You have to give us a chance. How about this? Whoever helps him avenge his ugly dad gets to be close to him in the future."
Emmanuel chuckled. "I don't think I need to agree to that."
But before he could finish, Tommy agreed, "Okay, if you can take down my dad's enemies, I'll follow you. Otherwise, I'll stick with Ms. Franks!"
Everyone was stunned.
Blake grinned upon hearing Tommy's agreement. "Haha, that's settled then. We'll honor our word. Kid, you can't go back on your promise!"
"I won't go back on it!" Tommy's gaze was unusually firm. His deepest bond was with Ryder, who had raised him for six years. As his son, it was his duty to avenge his father.
Alessandra and Tia had thought they wouldn't be expecting many visitors for the funeral, but after Blake and Abellyn left, more people arrived. They weren't ostentatious, but their numbers and status were imposing, forming a notable presence.
Seeing their well-dressed attire and distinguished demeanor, Alessandra and Tia wondered how Ryder had such friends during his lifetime. Even Mackenzie was somewhat surprised. As the foremost family in Nuthana, the Silverbane family, coming to mourn someone they hadn't even interacted with, showed their eagerness to connect with her husband.
Do they perhaps know Emmanuel's true identity? Otherwise, even if Emmanuel helps Onza Silverbane secure an advancement slot, they won't show such respect!
"Mr. Lowe, Ms. Quillen, we're here to offer our condolences!" Angela spoke first to Emmanuel and Mackenzie.
After Emmanuel and Mackenzie nodded, Angela approached Tia and Tommy.
"Mrs. Lowe, Tommy, please accept this small token of our condolences on behalf of the
Silverbane family of Onza." Angela handed a bank card to Tia, who was somewhat surprised!
This woman seemed like a princess, a noble figure. In the past, she would have been proud to know such people, but she had a feeling they were now approaching her because of Emmanuel. She knew that becoming Emmanuel's sister-in-law would bring her treatment she had never dared to dream of before.

After a slight nod from Angela, she turned to her family behind her.
