Mr. Jackson put down his teacup and stared at the sloppy form of Erwin, shouting in displeasure, "Can't you stand or sit properly? Is this what you learned growing up in the Jackson family!"
Mr. Jackson roared.
Immediately, Erwin sat up straight.
After all, Mr. Jackson was the most authoritative person in the family.
Lyra's lips curled slowly into a smile. Seeing this, Erwin's face hardened instantly, "What are you laughing at?"
Lyra's smile disappeared, she looked at Erwin innocently, "I didn't laugh."
Lyra's innocent explanation made Erwin look foolish.
He bit his cheek, having endured enough humiliations from Lyra today. He needed to cancel the marriage contract as soon as possible. Once it was cancelled, he would be free too.
Mr. Jackson, seated at the top, spoke:
"Erwin, regarding the cancellation of your and Lyra's marriage contract, your parents have already agreed, and Lyra herself has agreed. Under these circumstances, you should do what is expected."
