The Runaway Groom
Chapter 1019

Zachary said, "That's right. You'd envy me for having a daughter while you don't."

Isaac chuckled. "For now. Who knows what happens when she gets older? On the other hand, my sons would still be mine."

Zachary was speechless.

What was that supposed to mean? That his daughter would not be his once she became an adult?

Hilarious! His Jean would always be his! How would she not be his daughter once she got older?

And yet, something suddenly occurred to him and he understood what Isaac meant and was left frowning!

"Isaac!" he cried, chasing after him. "Y-You'd better watch your sons! Tell them to stay away from my daughter!"

Irene gave Baby a pointed look and chuckled. “That's why you shouldn't get too smug or you'd lose your daughter.”

Zachary was speechless.

The thought that the daughter, with whom he would raise carefully, would grow up to be someone else's girlfriend or wife left him utterly frustrated.

Isaac's words were especially infuriating.

What was that supposed to mean, his?!

Jean would never fall for the likes of Isaac's sons! And no one was taking Jean away from Zachary! S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Dream on." Zachary snorted coldly.

Isaac was not bothered to argue with Zachary—how long had it only been, but he was already an overprotective father?!

“Then raise her until she's as old as seventy,” Isaac said.

Zachary was left speechless again.

No way!

His darling Jean would marry someone young and successful in the future and certainly not end up a spinster!

Come to think of it, letting her marry one of Isaac's sons made sense. Isaac was rich, and neither him nor Irene were ugly.

In that case, both Tommy and Baby would look more or less the same. Zachary could keep an eye on them while they grew up as well and pick the more successful one, and Isaac would have to follow his choice!

Moreover, if his daughter were to really marry one of Isaac's sons, the boy would become his son-in-law.

From a certain perspective, he would have a daughter and half a son... which meant he would have stolen half a son from Isaac!

That was certainly no loss!

Hurrying up to Isaac's side, Zachary said, "So, I was thinking Tommy can attend school now."

Son-in-laws had to be groomed from a young age, after all.

Isaac looked at him askance. "That's my son. What are you worried about?"

"Haha." Zachary laughed. "I'm concerned for your sake, y'know?" Isaac, however, saw through him. "Anyone can read you like a book." Zachary was left speechless—was he being that obvious?

Well, it did not matter.

Chuckling, he said, "I think both your sons are just fine."

“I won't bethrothe my sons while they're still children,” Isaac said, cutting him short.

Isaac respected his children and their marriage, so no one got to have any funny ideas with them.

"Of course. It's no issue,” Zachary replied.

However, his daughter would be growing up with Isaac's sons, so that made them childhood friends.

So what if Isaac refused? It was fine as long as his sons were willing. Now that he thought about it, Jean would be a better fit for Baby—they were almost the same age and could attend school together and play together...

And a boy beside his daughter meant she would be protected.

"When Baby's older, you could send him to self-defense classes," he suggested to Isaac, so that Jean would be better protected.

Isaac warned, "Bother me again and you're out of here."
