Chapter 1393
“You’re a full-grown man. I’m sure you won’t be knocked down by this. But if you don’t want my daughter, her
future might be affected by hiding her marital history. She will be looked down upon by her future husband. Do you
know how big an impact this could have on a girl’s life? And you just shrug it off like it’s nothing.”
Growing more impassioned, Thaddeus raised his hand, and a bat was immediately passed to him by one of his
men, who then stepped aside.
While swinging the bat in his hand, Thaddeus declared, “As a father, I won’t let anyone mess with my daughter!
You say you want to compensate Sophia? Fine! Here are your two choices.
One, forget about other women, have a grand wedding with my daughter, and take care of her for life..

Take your pick.”
Theo glanced at the bat in Thaddeus’s hand, his face expressionless.
Seeing his silence, Thaddeus’s smile now held a hint of mockery. “What? Can’t make a choice? Theo, you’re more
of a chicken than I thought. You’re neither willing to take responsibility for my daughter nor brave enough to take a
hundred hits for Ellinor. Is that it? And you claim to be responsible for your wife and children?
If
you
don’t have the guts, I suggest you simply choose to marry my daughter. I’ll consider it water under the bridge and
accept you as my son-in-law. Also, I’ve got the lowdown on Ellinor. You can hide her with the Howard family for now,
but she can’t stay there forever. There’s plenty of time.
Besides, she’ll have to go to the hospital to give birth, right? I swear, I’d blow up the hospital before I’d let you two
be together.”
Theo’s frown deepened as he considered Ellinor’s safety. He was clearly hit where it hurt.
He could protect Ellinor temporarily, but he couldn’t always be by her side; there would be moments of
carelessness.
She’d get pissed off eventually if he kept an eye on her 24/7.
Ellinor enjoyed her freedom; once she got fed up with being watched, she would find a way to shake them off.
And Thaddeus International Corporation wasn’t exactly a legitimate business, and Thaddeus was no saint. They had
all kinds of tricks up their sleeves.

Blowing up a hospital…
This notorious madman might actually pull it off. He would find some scapegoats to take the fall, and Thaddeus
could still walk away scot-free.
Theo’s hesitation wasn’t out of fear for the hundred hits, but worry that he’d be unable to rush back within three
days to be with Ellinor in the delivery room.
But compared to her future safety, this was a minor concern.
With that in mind, Theo’s face grew serious, and he slowly took off his suit jacket. “Alright, I’ll take your hundred hits
today. But you must keep your word. After this, allow Sophia and me to proceed with the divorce and promise to
never bother my family again.”
Thaddeus was stunned. He didn’t expect that this young man would rather take a beating than take responsibility
for Sophia.
