Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 519

Martin also felt that for a man, being known as someone who used and discarded women was an ugly reputation.

Even if he himself had been a bit of a player, he had always made sure both parties were well taken care of. He had given Eleanor Lancaster plenty of money and other assets. Although Eleanor’s life was ruined, she would never have to worry about money and would always have people to look after her. And he had remained devoted to the love of his life for years. In his own mind, Martin saw himself not as a scoundrel, but as a deeply affectionate and dependable man.

“Brandon, a man needs to have a sense of responsibility. This behavior isn’t appropriate.”

But just as he said it, Martin remembered something else: Bella’s so-called best friend came from a very ordinary background. A small-town girl who studied her way into the big city, earned a decent degree, and managed to land a permanent position at the Blake Group—she had some talent, at least. In Martin’s eyes, she was certainly more capable than his own useless daughter.

But unfortunately, Hannah’s origins were too humble. She wasn’t from a distinguished family, nor was she a person of influence. Her future couldn’t compare to Bella’s. Her academic credentials were nice, but that was all. There were countless people more impressive than her. When it came down to it, Hannah’s background and qualifications just didn’t measure up.

Therefore, Martin would never approve of such a marriage.
