<h4>Chapter 231: Chapter 228: Dad’s Intervention</h4>


    Night falls.


    Elliana Lyle had already arrived at the Bet Family home, because Zane Bet was introducing Summer Hue to the old Mr. and Mrs. Bet today, so Julia Bet specifically called them back for this asion.


    The Bet Family had originally thought that she and Summer Hue didn’t know each other, but they didn’t expect the two to be cousins.


    As a result, the old Mrs. Bet couldn’t stop smiling, thinking it was an extraordinary coincidence.


    For some reason, when she saw the old Mrs. Bet, her first thought was of her own grandmother.


    Not sure how Grandma Lyle has been recently.


    Eliza Bet was still like before, looking like an innocent and carefree little girl, whose carefree demeanor naturally made people fond of her.


    But she knew, this little girl Eliza Bet saw things clearer than most adults.


    "Uncle, you actually managed to get a wife? I was just wondering what to do with you when you got old." Eliza Bet blurted out in front of everyone.


    Naturally, this wasn’t a lie. The old Mrs. Bet often worried aloud, thinking Zane Bet would stay a bachelor for life.


    After all, he always seemed unreliable, not someone you could count on.


    So the old Mrs. Bet often reminded Eliza Bet, "When your uncle gets old, you’ve got to take care of him."


    "Eliza Bet! Watch your manners." Though Zane Bet’s tone was scolding, the smile on his face was indulgent, clearly not bothered by what she said.


    Summer Hue pursed her lips and smiled, thinking this little girl was quite amusing.


    Because Philip Bet and Mia rke weren’t around, the family enjoyed a harmonious dinner together.


    After dinner, everyone went their separate ways, and Norman Bet took her and Eliza Bet for a walk to the back hill, which was an artificially constructed path indistinguishable from a park.


    Zane Bet and Summer Hue naturally started ying games together, after all, their rtionship began with gaming — a true pair of "inte addicts."


    At 10 PM, Philip Bet returned, having heard that Zane brought his girlfriend home to meet the elders, he couldn’t sit idly by.


    He had previously arranged a daughter-inw, but unexpectedly Zane found someone on his own.


    His eldest son waspletely out of his control, so he pinned all his hopes on this younger son, leaving no room for error.


    Marriage, naturally, couldn’t be taken lightly.


    After asking the butler, he went looking for their room.


    The door was ajar, and he could hear the conversation inside from the corridor, he didn’t bother knocking and pushed the door open directly.


    "ACE"


    Summer Hue’s voice came through: "What are you charging in for? I haven’t even arrived, and you’re already starting the fight. Who’s going to do the damage?"


    Then came Zane Bet’s apologetic voice: "My bad, my bad, I’m just not used to initiating fights."


    Though Philip Bet couldn’t see them, he could hear the uproariously loud noise that waspletely against the Bet Family’s rules.


    A quick nce around suggested the sound wasing from the bedroom.


    "You go distract, I’ll go backdoor them."


    "Quadra Kill"


    An enthusiastic announcement of a ’Quadra Kill’ came through the headphones, just as someone opened the door!


    Both of them snapped their heads towards the door, their hands frozen on the keyboard.

    Because it was hot, Summer Hue was wearing just a cool tank top.


    Zane Bet was shirtless.


    Theputer desk was littered with beer cans and snacks.


    In Philip Bet’s eyes, Summer Hue was an unsophisticated woman without proper etiquette, talking loudly, and appeared to be someone without proper upbringing.


    "Hello, uncle," Summer Hue quickly greeted, recognizing Philip Bet immediately since she had met him before.


    Zane Betined slightly, "Dad, why don’t you knock before entering?" Also ming himself for forgetting to lock the door.


    Philip Bet didn’t show either of them any kindness and grew even more averse to Summer Hue; he had never seen such an ill-mannered woman.


    Dressed so casually in the presence of elders, certainly not a daughter from a traditional family.


    If Summer Hue knew what Philip Bet thought, she would surely have retorted with a few words. This was her attire in the bedroom, not how she dressed outside.


    Moreover, entering someone’s bedroom without knocking, was really eptable?


    Of course, Philip Bet wouldn’t care about any of this; he only saw others’ mistakes, never recognizing his own.


    There was no way he would allow Summer Hue to marry into the Bet Family. He couldn’t control Norman, but he believed he could control this younger son.


    So, he sternly said to Zane Bet, "You,e to the study with me!"


    Having said that, Philip Bet turned and left directly.


    "Your dad doesn’t seem very happy," Summer Hue couldn’t quite understand what she did wrong; Philip Bet shot her a very displeased look—he even red harshly at her as he left.


    Zane Bet ruffled her hair, nted a kiss on her forehead, andforted her, "That’s just how my dad is, don’t mind him. Be good and wait for me toe back."


    "Okay," she obediently nodded.


    Zane Bet put on a T-shirt and left the room, then walked to the door of Philip Bet’s study.


    He had a bad feeling about it, hesitating at the door for a long time, unsure whether to enter or not.


    But he knew Philip Bet’s temperament—if he didn’t go in today, Philip Bet would stir up the entire Bet Family, which he found most annoying.


    In the end, he knocked on the door.


    Knock, knock-knock!


    "Come in!"


    The voice was authoritative and intimidating, making one feel unnerved.


    He had no choice but to walk in, with Philip Bet already standing behind the desk, his face dark as if someone owed him money.


    "Dad, what’s up?" he asked.


    Philip Bet said in a deep voice, "Is that the girlfriend you found for yourself?"


    Upon hearing this question, he realized his father was up to no good, and replied, "Yes."


    "Hmph!" Faced with his son’s assertive answer, Philip Bet couldn’t help but snort coldly and then angrily said, "Bringing just anyone home! Do you think this house is a shelter? Break up with her immediately!"


    Those words hit like a blow to the head, and Zane Bet was already furious, especially with the first part of the sentence.


    He didn’t want to say much to Philip Bet, so heid it all out: "Is this all you wanted to say? I’ve chosen her for life; no one can stop me."


    "Hmph! It’s impossible between the two of you, and I absolutely forbid it. Instead of dying things, you better break up soon."


    With that, Philip Bet continued, "The heiress of the Bright Tower Corporation, that’s who you should be marrying!"


    Once he finished speaking, silence filled the study, with Zane Bet’s face a mask of resolve, showing no intention of speaking.


    However, no matter what happened, he could never give up Summer Hue to marry the heiress of Bright Tower Corporation.


    He simply didn’t want to waste any more words with the person in front of him.


    Seeing his son silent, Philip Bet assumed he was in a dilemma, so he softened his tone, "The Bright Tower Corporation is arge corporation. Our family alliance is for future development. You must not follow your brother’s example."


    Zane Bet replied coldly, "If it’s for the future of the Bet Family, then why don’t you marry her yourself?"


    "You!" Philip Bet was instantly infuriated, scolding, "You unfilial son! You’ve really turned against me!"


    "Think what you want; I will never let you control me." With this statement, Zane Bet left the study directly.


    Leaving only the sound of the door mming behind.


    Philip Bet was left speechless with rage, and after a long while, he summoned his most trusted person to the study.


    "I’m giving you the task to make sure that woman leaves the second young master."
