After knowing this news, everyone's impression of Connor began to change.
After all, if the Washington family was not involved, it was normal for Connor to want to marry Freya; Mr. McDonald of Porthampton was also very powerful and definitely worthy of Freya.
At this mont, an old man suddenly spoke. "No wonder Freya was so bold. She actually dared to bring that boy to our Yearwood family. So this boy is actually Porthampton's Mr. McDonald. Now I finally understand what's going on. Porthampton's Mr. McDonald is still very capable…"
"That's right. If this kid is really Mr. McDonald of Porthampton, then we really have to consider this carefully..."
The others quickly followed suit.
At this mont, a thin old man said calmly, "I think Mr. McDonald Porthampton is also worthy of our Yearwood family!"
Tom's expression was a little strange after hearing the old man's words. He frowned and asked, "I think that's a stretch. So what if Connor is Mr. McDonald of Porthampton?"
"Don't tell you think Connor isn't worthy of our Yearwood family?" the old man asked.
"Now is not the ti to discuss whether or not Connor is worthy of our Yearwood family. Don't forget that the Washington family is an ancient martial arts aristocratic family. Connor is nothing when compared to them. Moreover, his style of doing things is really too arrogant. If we marry Freya to him, I'm afraid it will cause big trouble for our Yearwood family in the future…"
Tom had a very good relationship with the Washington family, so he was speaking up for the Washington family, worried that the Yearwood family would suddenly change their mind.
When the old man who had spoken earlier heard this, he looked a little helpless and lowered his head without saying anything.
The old man had a good relationship with Camila's father. However, the old man's status in the Yearwood family was relatively low, so he didn't have any right to speak. Therefore, he didn't dare to say anything after hearing Tom's words. He could only shut his mouth obediently.
In the Yearwood family, it wasn't that the older one was, the higher the status. It was that the more one contributed, the higher of a status they would be at..
Tom controlled a lot of the Yearwood family's businesses, and his position was second only to the family head. The old man didn't contribute much to the Yearwood family, so even if Tom scolded him, he didn't dare to refute.
"I think Tom is right. Although Connor has so background and Mr. McDonald Porthampton is indeed very powerful, no matter what, he's still a little weaker than the Washington family..."
Everyone also began to take advantage of the situation.
"That's right. Moreover, Connor even beat Wilbur up to such a state. The Landon family will definitely not let this matter rest. If we get too close to Connor, we might even be implicated…"
"At that ti, it would really be a loss to offend the Landon, Washington, and the Hons families because Connor. We should still side with the Washington family and the Landon family. I think this is the right choice…"
Everyone chid in.
Tom nodded slightly, showing his satisfaction.
In the eyes of these people, no matter how powerful Connor was, he was still just one person. He still had no way to compete with the Washington, Landon, and Hons families.
Camila sat there without saying a word.
In fact, she was also very surprised. She did not expect Connor to do such a thing.
However, this was not what she cared about. What she really cared about was whether this matter would bring her so trouble. If it didn't bring her any trouble and she could take this opportunity to get rid of Connor, it would be a good thing.
"Alright, it's useless for us to discuss this now. Let's wait for the family head to co over and see what his opinion is!" Tom suddenly said.
At this ti, Grayson had just entered the conference room.
After seeing Grayson, everyone seed to have found their backbone and began to ask him for his opinion.
Grayson didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. No one knew what he was thinking at this ti.
After Grayson sat down, Tom asked, "Patriarch, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Grayson hesitated for a mont, then slowly turned his head to look at Jules's position. He said to Jules expressionlessly, "Tell everything that happened today from the beginning to the end. There's no need to mix in your emotions. Just tell what happened, understand?"
Jules did not dare to speak nonsense after hearing Grayson's words. He quickly told him everything that happened today from beginning to end.
Although Grayson reminded Jules not to bring his own emotions, in fact, Jules's words were more inclined to Will's side.
After all, his father, Tom, was on Will's side. He would definitely support his father.
After Jules narrated the whole incident, everyone felt that Connor's character was a bit too arrogant.
Actually, Wilbur had not done anything too overboard, but Connor had actually beaten him to such a state.
Moreover, Jules also recounted everything that Connor had said in detail. After listening to it, everyone beca even angrier.
"Connor is too arrogant. He obviously doesn't think highly of our Yearwood family at all. He's just the boss of Porthampton now, and he doesn't have any big skills. If this kid is given a few more years, I guess he'll be looking forward to bullying us!"
An old man shouted angrily.
"That's right, Connor is too arrogant! How could there be such an arrogant person? I really don't know what he's thinking…"
Everyone began to discuss in low voices.
However, at this mont, Grayson suddenly looked up at Jules and asked him expressionlessly, "The Ted you ntioned just now should be Marshal Hons's son, right?"
"That's right, it's him…" Jules hurriedly nodded.
After Grayson heard this, he couldn't help but gasp, "This Hons family is not an ordinary family either; their power in the military is still very terrifying. Moreover, I heard that the Hons family and the Washington family have a very good relationship. Connor himself has offended the Landon family. This kid is in big trouble…"
