Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 635 "Winnie, you promised me you wouldn't get close to Michael again! Do you still have a conscience? Haven't you caused him enough pain already?" "|... I'm sorry..." Winnie lowered her head, words failing her beyond the apology. She truly had broken her promise. Even if Oscar struck her, she would bear it without complaint. Michael's heart ached at the sight of his father's fury, but this was his choice-and he would shoulder every consequence of it He drew Winnie back to his side, then lowered his head respectfully toward Oscar. "Dad, everything is my decision.

Punish me as you see fit; | will accept it. All my life I've obeyed you and never asked for anything... but today, | ask once-please accept our marriage." Winnie's heart trembled. How could Michael go to such lengths for her? Could it be true, as Charlotte said, that he still cared for her? But someone like her-did she deserve this? "No! I will never agree to this marriage!" Oscar's roar cut through the air. Michael hadn't even finished his words before his father's voice, sharp and cold, thundered over him.

The easygoing composure ---- and grace that normally defined him were gone, replaced with a crushing weight. "Tomorrow, go file for divorce." "Dad..." Michael began, but Oscar's eyes glinted with a ruthless chill as he continued, "If you are willing to give up this family, my pride, and even your future for a woman, then you may choose not to obey me." He glanced away, a slight, deliberate smile playing at the corners of his mouth, but his eyes remained ice. Michael and Winnie exchanged a fleeting, hesitant glance.

Oscar paused, then continued, each word punctuated with icy finality, "Michael, you are grown now, and | cannot control your choices. Think carefully. Either tomorrow morning you go and file for divorce... or you walk out of here with her right now." Michael opened his mouth, but his father's words stopped him before he could speak. But if you do, you will no longer be my son. "| will legally sever all father-son ties with you, and all your assets will be returned to the Morrison family." Michael froze. ---- Winnie was equally stunned. She had never imagined Oscar would say such things.

Speaking them so publicly, there would be no turning back-if Michael chose her, Oscar would truly sever ties for the sake of his pride. Veronica couldn't suppress a sneer. Even the Olsons were momentarily taken aback. Mr. Olson, ever polite, stepped forward with feigned diplomacy. "Oscar, Michael's just acting impulsively. Young people are sometimes rebellious. You're all family-there's no need to sever ties... And besides, Michael has been pampered all his life. If he leaves the Morrison family, he won't cope!" Winnie's father only added fuel to Oscar's fire.

It was precisely because he had spoiled Michael so much that the young man felt invincible. To go behind his back and act on a major life decision, conspiring with someone like Winnie-outrageous! Oscar's gaze hardened. He fixed Michael with an icy glare. "Michael, have you made your choice?" Mr. Olson turned to Winnie. "Winnie, don't be so reckless. Even if you and Michael were childhood friends, you're not suitable for each other. Can love that defies your parents endure to the end? Are you being fair to him?" ---- "Fine! Welll divorce!

Oscar, don't be angry at Michael-this was a moment of impulse. It's entirely my fault. Don't blame him."
