Chapter 558
William walked over with a stern expression, hands behind his back, and stood in the doorway, displaying a domineering posture. “Do you think it’s easy to marry a daughter of the Fletcher family? Without a decent dowry, even the almighty won’t be of any use.”
Robert pointed at William, blowing his mustache and glaring, “You are feudal and stubborn. When two children are in love, we as parents should encourage and support them.”
William said, “In short, if you want to marry my daughter, you have to present a decent dowry. Otherwise, forget about it.”
Thea became anxious, “Dad, you clearly promised me not to trouble Theodore, didn’t you?”
William frowned and said, “Daughter, I only promised you that I wouldn’t accept a large dowry. But I didn’t say I wouldn’t accept anything at all, did I?”
Thorne took out a box from his pocket, inside of which was a set of emerald jewelry worth billions, along with a bank card, a property deed, and a car key.
Thorne handed the box to Thea and said, “This set of jewelry is an heirloom left to me by my mother. In the letter she left for me, she said that once I find the girl I want to spend the rest of my life with, I am to entrust these to you.”
“In my bank card is the dowry I earned in these past few da Although it is only a meager one billion, it seems insignificant

compared to your worth, but having something is better than having nothing. I just want to tell you through this bank card that as my wife, everything I have is yours.””
“This real estate deed is for a villa I bought by the seaside. I remember you saying that you love the ocean and want to live by its side. Facing the sea, with warm spring blossoms. So I took my time and finally found a sea–view villa, hoping that you would like it.”
“This car, seemingly ordinary, is different on the inside. Its material is made of a new type of material that I used, even in the event of a collision, it will not explode or shatter, and the safety factor is several times higher than that of ordinary cars.”
“Thea, this is all I have for my dowry, please don’t despise them.”
Thea had long been moved to tears.
“You have given me enough. You gave me a chance to be reborn, gave me a healthy body, and gave me family, gave me so many robots…” She knelt in front of him, holding him and sobbing loudly.
“You gave me everything you could. You turned yourself into someone with nothing. Are you still not satisfied with what you gave me? You fool.”
William was completely confused.
However, when he saw Thorne’s dowry, he couldn’t help but smile from ear to ear.
Just seeing Robert, he quickly restrained his proud

Robert pointed at him and coughed, saying, “You, you have become so vulgar and insatiable. When did that happen?”
William retorted at him, “You, as a father, have never fulfilled your responsibilities as a parent for a single day, and now he is about to start a family. You should at least show some gesture.”
Robert hesitated for a moment, furrowing his brow for some unknown reason, before handing the bag he was holding to Thea. “Daughter–in–law, your father–in–law doesn’t have much talent, but these are a small gift from him to you. I hope you can accept them with a smile.”
Thea opened Robert’s gift with confusion, and when she saw that Robert had transferred all of his shares in the Miller Group, which belonged to him, to her, she was utterly shocked.
“This was too valuable.”
“And besides, wasn’t the Miller Group’s future plan to monopolize the field of artificial intelligence? If you give me so many shares, how can the Miller Group achieve its grand goal?”
Robert laughed and said, “So, Jade, you must make sure to guard it well. Don’t let it be taken back by the Miller Group.”
His smile, for some reason, carried a hint of helplessness.
Thea turned her head to look at Thorne, and Thorne made a decision for her, “Since it is Dad’s wish, accept it.”

William looked at Robert in shock and said, “Are you really willing to hand over the legacy you have built your whole life to my daughter?”
Robert glanced at him and said, “Jade is now my daughter too. I also hope for her to be happy with Thorne, just like you.”
William always felt that something was strange, “Robert, what exactly are you up to? I’m telling you, give the shares to my daughter. My daughter won’t be polite about it, and we’ll accept them.”
Robert laughed and said, “William, you must take good care of the legacy I have given to Jade.”
William was very pleased with the Miller family’s sincerity and laughed heartily, patting his chest. “Alright, seeing how sincere you father and son are, I agree to marry my daughter to Thorne. Come on in, lunch has been prepared for you all since early today.”
William led them in, the interior carefully decorated. Red lanterns hung from the ceiling, with photos of Thea and Thorne cuddling on them. Many red agate stones were tied to the railing, and stickers of intertwined lotus flowers adorned the windows.
Thea blushed with embarrassment. “Dad, what are you doing?”
William complained, “You and Thorne didn’t want to have a wedding, so even though today is my daughter’s big day, what’s wrong with me decorating the room for you?”
“Dad, it was too exaggerated.”

“Not at all exaggerated,” Robert rarely stood on the same front as William, “In my opinion, there is too little agate and it is too small. That sticker lacks texture, it should be made with ruby mosaic patterns, and these red silks are too cheap…”
William rarely had a falling out with Robert, “Haha, you think so too? I think so too. But all the good stuff has been used to decorate the wedding house. We collected all the jewelry stores in the Capital and bought all the red gemstones. But it’s not enough.”
Robert glanced at him and said, “Don’t you know how to go abroad for collection? Have you been sleeping for so many years that you’ve become brainless?”
“I certainly knew about going out of town for collection, but Thea and Thorne suddenly had the urge to get a license. I didn’t have enough time to prepare, so I just made do with a little.”
The two old friends started arguing again.
Thea held her forehead in pain, but Thorne gently patted the back of her hand and said, “Let them go.”
“Are you hungry?” Thorne asked, concerned about Thea.
Thea suddenly remembered something, “Theodore, today is the anniversary of our wedding. So I have decided to forgive Lady Miller and Mr. Joshua this time. Let it be a blessing for our baby and you.”
She gently caressed her belly, her face radiating the glow of motherly love.
Thorne sighed and said, “As long as you are happy.”

Thea called the police station to express her intention to issue an apology letter.
In the afternoon, Thea and Thorne, accompanied by their two fathers, went to the civil affairs bureau.
Originally, William was very worried that Robert would change his mind at any moment, making the trip less smooth, so he prevented Robert from following.
But Robert humbly pleaded with Thorne, “Thorne, Dad wants to bring the love of your mother and witness this happy moment.”
Thorne agreed.
William warned Robert, “You hypocrite who is inconsistent in words and actions, you are not allowed to play tricks later.”
