Erine raised her voice in anger, attracting the attention of people around her.

Christopher sat on the other side and felt distressed hearing her words.

He had investigated her and found out that Meredith had eloped with someone without leaving a trace. That's why Hudson had his eyes on Erine. Most importantly, Meredith knew that Hudson was on to something. It was Erine who helped her when she left, otherwise, there would be no way for her to leave.

Erine took all the burden alone. He also knew that Meredith and Erine had a good relationship because they knew what kind of person their father was.

Now, Christopher knew why Samuel would not let him come forward. It was infuriating. He had seen a lot of shameless people, but for people like him, giving him a beating wouldn't even be enough to extinguish the anger.

Samuel sneered, "The things that were supposed to be prepared for the marriage of Erine to our Meyer family will be prepared, but I hope you can understand that we didn't marry her to help you financially. It's the Harrison family's issue that your business is not doing well, but you can't exchange it for your daughter."

"If you don't agree, someone else will."

"Oh really? Do you think the Laneigh family would want to be your in-laws? Mr. Harrison, one can be poor, but one cannot be without dignity. I can't see any dignity in you. On the contrary, I admire Erine very much," Samuel praised her.

Erine raised her head and glanced at him. She was disappointed that only the outsiders would appreciate her.

"Can you stop it?" Hudson said shamelessly.

Samuel slammed the table angrily. "Do you want to try? I will see who dares to hurt the daughter-in-law of the Meyer family. Don't think that you can do whatever you want with the Laneigh family. Remember, you are nothing without this entanglement. Also, if you threaten us again, I will not hesitate to take over your Harrison family sooner and leave you with nothing."

Samuel really meant it as he had already planned. If Hudson obeyed, he would gladly be his inlaw. However, if he wouldn't agree, he would not show any mercy.

When Erine heard Samuel expressing his anger, she surprisingly felt relieved.

She had heard about how her father abused his status to achieve what he wanted.

Although she did not know much about the Meyer family, she could still tell from Ysabelle and Felicia that the Meyer's family business was huge.

Hudson also lost his temper. "Did you think that I will be fooled by your nonsense?"

Samuel knew that he would say such a thing. He snorted and said, "You can ask the Laneigh family if they know who I, Samuel Meyer, really am." After saying this, he pulled Erine and walked out. She followed without looking at her father.

When Hudson heard the name "Samuel", he was stunned. "Samuel?" He thought to himself.

His name sounded familiar.

Christopher followed them out as well.

Both Samuel and Erine sat in the car, waiting for Christopher to come out.

"Uncle Samuel."

"Erine, I know you can't choose your family, but we, the Meyer family, will never let you be wronged, and I hope you can understand that. Your parents can't give you any care, but the Meyer family can. Moreover, you know Christopher well."

Erine lowered her head. It was a lie to say that she was not touched. She had never felt anything like

this before.

However, she had never complained about her background. She thought that without a father she'd be nothing, but now, she figured that she would rather have none.

Christopher got in the car and sat next to her. "Erine, don't be sad. Let my dad solve this matter."

Hearing this, Samuel raised his head and looked at him. "What kind of a man are you? You can't even protect your woman, and you want your father to help you? What were you thinking?" "Dad, you just mentioned that you would do anything for Erine. I'm just telling the truth. Why do I sound so useless to you now?" Christopher rubbed his head and said sadly.

Samuel snorted. This brat was really good at catching words.

Why didn't he defend her just now?

Erine burst into laughter as she watched them.

What a pair of loving father and son.

Samuel looked a little embarrassed and said to the driver, "Drive back to the Meyer family home."

"Yes, Master Samuel." The driver was used to the way they interacted.

At the manor, Vanessa couldn't be at ease. She didn't know how the conversation would go down.

Felicia came back to get some documents. She was told about the incident and waited for them on the sofa since she was not in a hurry to return to the company. "Mom, can you stop pacing? You're making me dizzy."

"What do you know? Can't you see how worried I am?" Vanessa was really anxious as they had not come back at this time.

Right at that moment, the servant came in and said with a smile, "Madam, they're back."

Upon hearing this, she walked over and saw Samuel, but she could not read his expression, so she asked anxiously, "How was it?"

"He disagreed and even forced me. Call Ysabelle immediately. If the Harrison family is still so arrogant, we will take over them," Samuel pointed at Felicia and instructed.

She glanced at Erine and called Ysabelle. She believed that Erine had also had enough of the Harrison family. Otherwise, Samuel would not have said such words. Even if it was for Erine's sake, he wouldn't do that either.

Vanessa agreed with her. If they were polite, they could be great in-laws, otherwise, they could only let it be. However, this would only make Erine even upset. "Dad, Mom, we'll head back to the hospital first. Everleigh is keeping an eye on the hospital." After saying this, Christopher left with Erine.

At that moment, in the hospital, Everleigh was waiting for their arrival. They had said that they would come over in the afternoon.

When she saw Christopher, she quickly asked, "How was it?"

"What else can I do? They are determined to marry Erine off to the Laneigh family. I don't understand, how can parents like them ever exist?" He asked unpleasantly.

She listened and felt sad for Erine for having such a father.

"Then what should we do now?"

"Now, we can only wait for Erine's father to make his decision. If there's no agreement from him, the Meyer family will take action," he explained helplessly. He had never abused his status before. For the first time, he found the advantage of having power and influence.

"At least I can keep the woman I love with me so that's good."

She agreed. The only way to deal with people like them is an eye for an eye.

"Where's Erine?"

"She went back to her own department."

She thought for a moment and said, "Get Erine to join us tonight. Let's go to the bar."
