Liora hesitated for a moment and said, “We can get the marriage
certificate first, but can we not rush to have the wedding, or maybe just have a small wedding.”
Her parents passed away early, and in the earlier years, due to some past events, her parents and the older generation no longer kept in touch. Now, her uncles and aunts also do not welcome her.
If she were to have a wedding, she would need to find two more people to act as parents.
Furthermore, a few days ago when Greg was live streaming, some of her videos being bullied were circulating all over the internet.
If a big wedding were held now, these people would probably point fingers at Nathan.
Nathan thought for a moment and calmly wrote on the tablet, “If you don’t want to have a wedding, we won’t have one for now. Let’s just get the marriage certificate first. When you decide you want to have a wedding, let me know.”
“As for my grandmother’s side, I would say it was my fault.”
Liora looked down at the two lines of text on the tablet, a hint of color appearing in her watery eyes.
She had already prepared herself for Nathan to ask her why they weren’t having a wedding, but he didn’t ask at all. In fact, he took the initiative and took on the responsibility.

“Will grandma blame you for that?”
Nathan looked at her small face, filled with confusion and helplessness, and for the first time, a feeling of heartache rose in the depths of his heart.
Yesterday morning, the assistant brought the well–investigated. information to the villa.
After he finished reading, he felt both angry and heartbroken.
I was so angry at Greg, this scumbag, for being so stupid!
It is heartbreaking that Liora, who grew up
Without support and love, encountered a top–level scumbag like Greg in her first relationship.
He dared not imagine how Liora had managed to get through the recent period.
Thinking like this, Nathan couldn’t help but hug her and quickly wrote a line: “I would say it’s because I can’t speak now, so I don’t want to have a wedding.”
“Actually, even if you tell your grandmother what’s on your mind, you don’t have to worry about her not liking you.‘

“You saw it today, Grandma spent the whole day with you shopping just to make you happy. Before you, Grandma had never been so indulgent towards the younger generation.”
“Furthermore, the Collen family is wealthy and does not need the support of a single woman to elevate the family. Both I and Grandma have already considered you as a part of the Collen family.”
Liora leaned against Nathan’s chest, looking down at the words on the tablet.

Although the man couldn’t speak, every word and sentence he uttered was filled with warmth.
Liora couldn’t help it and, with tears in her eyes, she hugged Nathan and buried her face in his chest, crying softly.
After holding back for a long time, the grievances suddenly poured out, Nathan lowered his head and gently patted her back with his broad palm.
Davis.
Talia was forcibly sent back to the Renner family by the secretary. Deacon’s face darkened as soon as he saw her, and he picked up a chair and smashed it onto Talia.
He didn’t care about the presence of others, and angrily rebuked, “I asked you to maintain a good relationship with Mr. Alston, but you caused such a scandal! You’ve really offended Mr. Alston!”
“Over the past decade, our Renner family has relied on Mr. Alston’s support to get to where we are today! Yesterday’s live broadcast made a big scene, now where am I supposed to put my face?”
The chair hit Talia’s back, causing her intense pain and making her burst. into tears instantly.
Scenes of being beaten in the past flooded into her mind, and she shuddered, explaining, “Dad, it’s all Liora’s fault. If she hadn’t switched the video, I would be Mr. Alston’s girlfriend now!”
“I’m going to find Liora right now, I’m going to kill him!”
Deacon squinted coldly and raised his hand, slapping her in the face. “Fool! Who doesn’t know that Mr. Alston is full of regret and wants

Liora’s forgiveness now? Are you trying to destroy the Renner family by causing trouble for Liora?”
He said, hating iron for not becoming steel, “I have analyzed with you long ago, when you woke up from a vegetative state, Mr. Alston would definitely confess to you.”
“As for Liora, you’d better make peace with her privately. I can overlook you not listening to me, but sending Mr. Alston’s men to harm her is extremely foolish!”
Now, he had just signed three major contracts with the Alston family. If the funds do not arrive this month, he may have to face exorbitant compensation!
Talia watched as Deacon opened the long wooden box on the mahogany table and slowly pulled out a vine. She shuddered.
Just as she was about to dodge, the cane had already landed on her. Each lash of the whip left Talia with cuts and bruises, causing her to scream in agony.
“Dad, I was wrong! I will go find Mr. Alston now and beg him to forgive
us.”
The secretary looked at Talia with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, then suddenly spoke in a cold voice: “Mr. Renner, Mr. Alston instructed me to tell you that if you want the Renner family to survive, you should know what to do.”
In one sentence, Talia kept backing away, looking at the ominous Deacon in fear. Sensing something was wrong, she got up and ran towards the door.
Talia had just run to the door when Deacon grabbed her back with one

hand.
Deacon stepped on Talia’s back with one foot, while picking up an iron rod that had not been used for a long time from the side, and slammed it down on Talia.
Accompanied by a piercing scream, Talia lay on the floor like a pile of mud, barely breathing.
