Chapitre 627: Gathering

Claire lowered her head, her eyes still snapped shut as she nodded.

"Can you tell me why you want to marry me?" He asked.

Claire stayed silent for a while before she took a breath and honestly said.

"Because you are strong and influential. If I became your wife, I won't have to struggle to survive and Kevin would have proper resources to cultivate when he starts to cultivate. Also because like every child, he also needs a father figure, someone to take care of him, someone he could rely on."

Hearing this, Max asked, "What if I die to the noble families? Then would it all be useless?"

Claire remained silent.

Sighing, he said, "Alright. I can marry you but–"

"That's enough for me." Claire cut him off. 

"As long as you take me as your woman, promise to take care of Kevin and me, I don't care whether I'm your wife, concubine or even a servant. I don't need a status to show in public."
