Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin) novel Chapter 397

A frigid look came across Felicia's face when she saw how Timothy was going overboard the more he spoke. Staring straight at Timothy, she prompted, "She saved your and your daughter's lives. Have you forgotten about what she did?"

If word of this got out, others might even say that the Halls were ungrateful people.

Timothy turned livid at what Felicia said. "We can give Suzanne whatever she wants—anything except getting married to Austin."

This wasn't a simple matter. They shouldn't take this lightly.

Yasmine lowered the plate of fruits onto the coffee table. Then, she glanced over at Timothy. "Dad, you seem to have forgotten that the Frost family has her back."

This was something that one would be able to find out just by looking into Suzanne. Yasmine refused to believe that Timothy hadn't found out about this.

Felicia looked upset too. "Maybe he feels like his son is untouchable. The miracle doctor, Jane Smith, has the Frost family supporting her. She has a strong background and is a capable woman. Just think about it—there aren't any heiresses in Dudore better than her, are there?"

Other than relying on their families, those heiresses weren't capable of anything else.

They wouldn't be able to contribute in any way if they married into the Hall family. Meanwhile, those who were career-minded wouldn't actually care about Austin.

Yasmine pursed her lips. Instinctively, she looked over at the dining room, where Emma and Austin were seated and playing together.

The cold and aloof Austin was always pursued by others. At this moment, even his own mother was looking at him in disdain.

Timothy insisted, "They'd still be better than Suzanne."

The Yates family wasn't even a family of any significance in Dudore. Moreover, how could someone like Henry have a daughter who was of decent character and capability?

Suzanne might be able to put on an act for now, but she would show her true colors with time.

If Timothy didn't take preventative measures against her now, who would take responsibility if problems arose in the future?

Suddenly, Austin got to his feet. With Emma in his arms, he walked out of the dining room and to the living room before handing her to Yasmine.

Staring at Timothy with a dull gaze, he said, "It doesn't matter what her background is. Even if she isn't someone with a high social status, I'll still be with her."
