Chapter 419 Is That Something a Mother Should Be Saying?
Lara looked at Penny with a frown. “Why wouldn’t I have investigated them? Which one of them is unworthy of
you?” Penny sneered as she picked up the photo of the man she felt was old enough to be her father. “This man…
Is he a candidate to become my boyfriend too?” In the end, Lara seemed a little guilty. “I investigated them before
gathering them into this envelope. This man might be a little older, but the Anderson Family is considerably
influential. Besides, an older man will dote on you more. Look at your dad.”
Penny’s expression darkened. “My dad is only older than you by five years. This man is older than me by at least
fifteen years!” The scowl on Lara’s face grew fiercer and fiercer. “Then, why don’t you look at the others?!” In
response, Penny picked up another photo. “This is the youngest son of the Landry Family, right? He can’t even be
compared to Ben Roberts! At the very least, Ben goes home. This guy spends his days fooling around at nightclubs
without even going home! Are you asking me to marry a guy like that?!” Lara suppressed her rage. “Aren’t all

heart, even a playboy will stop his ways. If not for that, you won’t be able to stop him from fooling around even if
you are given an honest and down-to-earth man!” The expression on Penny’s face became darker and angrier. “Is
that something a mother should be saying?”
“What’s wrong with saying that as a mother?!” “Am I your biological child?! These are the kind of men you dredge
up for me?!”
“That’s why I gave you a selection to choose from! It’s not like I’m asking you to marry them! Why do you have to
give me that attitude?!” “There’s no need for me to choose! I don’t like any of them!” “Penny Nolan!” Lara was so
furious that she stood up and pointed at her. “You get less and less considerate as you grow older!”
Edward hurriedly stopped her. “Calm down. Let’s talk this out. If the child doesn’t like any of them, we can just
choose new ones.”
“Don’t bother choosing new ones. I’ll find my own boyfriend. I don’t need your help.” Penny said as she stood up to
leave.
“Stop right there!” Lara yelled at the top of her voice. “Penny, you were born into a wealthy family. You should have
known that marriages among the wealthy are all
about choosing a partner of equal social status. You can find one yourself, but you have to choose one from among
them. You are not allowed to consider other men.” It’s another one of her orders that I’m not allowed to defy. I’m
sick of her giving orders here and there whenever she wants to. I’m already 23! What right does she have to decide
how my life should pan out? Thus, she suppressed her fury and gritted her teeth as she said, “I said I don’t like any
of them!”
Lara said, “Marriages are all about business. Besides, nobody’s marriage is smooth-sailing. After a long while, all
sorts of issues will pop up within the marriage. The good things you thought were amazing at the start might not be
good after all. Conversely, a marriage you reject might turn out to be the most perfect match for you. At the very
least, these men I’ve gathered for you are comparable to you in terms of family background, education, and
culture!”

In response, Penny gave a self-deprecating laugh. “The most important thing is that it benefits your career
development, right?” “That’s right. If you marry them, it will bring the company to the next level.” “Despite how
high-sounding your words were, they were ultimately still for your own selfish benefit. With how wealthy our family
is, do I even need to marry anybody? I can support myself. Why do I need to live my life revolving around the
feelings of a man and suffering because of him? But, my mom wants me to live like that. She claims that all men
are unfaithful and constantly fool around at nightclubs. She doesn’t plan to allow me to find a man who doesn’t fool
around in the first place. Instead, she wants me to learn how to capture the heart of a playboy. Is that what you
should be saying as a mother?! All you know how to do is work! You will never be satisfied; it doesn’t matter how
much money you earn, you will never be satisfied! If you cared for me, you wouldn’t try to force these men on
me!”
Slap. As soon as she finished her rant, the sound of a slap landing across her left cheek sounded out clearly.
“Hey!” Edward jumped in fright. Grabbing Lara, he exclaimed, “We can talk this out! Why did you have to be
violent? How long has it been since she came home?!”
