A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 709

The Yoder Family.

Archie hung up the phone and walked back into the living room.

Gavin Yoder looked up at him, clearly annoyed. "I was in the middle of talking to you. Where'd you go?"

"Had to take a call," Archie replied, voice cool.

"What kind of call is so important you can ignore me? Was it those useless friends of yours again? Archie, seriously, can't you pick up some better habits? Hanging out with those losers all day just gets on my nerves."

Gavin leaned forward, frustration in his eyes. "You're not getting any younger, you know. Like your aunt keeps telling you, it's time you settled down."

"The girl Willow picked out for you is a good match. When are you going to meet her and get this sorted?"

Archie frowned at him. "I’m not interested."

"Not interested?" Gavin scoffed. "This isn’t about what you want. It’s a business arrangement. You’ll get married because I say so. Honestly, you should be grateful she’s even considering you. Who do you think you are? You think you could do better?"

He let out a sharp laugh. "I don’t care if you like it or not. You’re marrying her, end of story!"

Archie rolled his eyes. "What if I just refuse? You gonna drag me to the altar?"

"Why the hell not? You got someone else?" Gavin narrowed his eyes. "Even if you do, it doesn’t matter. Marriage is business. What you do on your own time, I don’t care. Love’s overrated. You should be focused on your career!"

Chester shook his head instantly. "No way. I heard she’s dumber than a box of rocks, and ugly as homemade sin. I’d puke!"

Archie shrugged. "If you won’t do it, why should I?"

Chester finally looked up, smirking. "Mom and Dad spoil me. I don’t have to settle for someone like that. But you? You should be thinking about your future. Dad already said the company’s mine, so you’ll be marrying into someone else’s family."

"My mom found you a catch, rich as hell. What’s your problem? You should thank my mom for finding you a millionaire," Chester said matter-of-factly.

Archie’s face darkened. He turned to Gavin. "I’m not your pawn. Who I marry is my business, not yours. Stay out of it!"
