The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1235

The relationship between the prestigious families of Eastcliff was very intricate.

Noble intermarriage was a common practice between these families, similar to the royal intermarriage where members of the ruling dynasties married into other reigning families. 1

After all, every family had both male and female offspring, and when they reached the marriageable age, they were bound to look for suitable spouses.

Since it was impossible for them to choose a spouse from ordinary families, their only options were the descendants among the prestigious families. 1

It could be said that all of these prestigious families were more or less related by marriage between each other. In fact, some families that had many offspring would extend their intermarriage practice to the large network of other prominent families. 1

In Europe, royal intermarriage was very common among monarchies where their kings and queens were related to each other, and this was because the royal families throughout Europe were one huge family formed by a long term intermarriage practice, i

Dylan’s mother, Sylvia Koch, was the daughter of the Thomas family and was Doreen's aunt. She had

married Dylan's father, Leonard, thirty-five years ago. 8

During their wedding, the Thomas family was a little stronger and wealthier than the Koch family, but over the years, the Thomas family had been going downhill. On the contrary, the Koch family had been rising and progressing upward, so it gradually widened the gap between the two families.

Despite this, Lord Koch and his wife always doted on Sylvia, particularly because the Thomas family had indeed helped the Koch family a lot when Sylvia married their son back then, 7

After marrying Leonard, Sylvia gave birth to three daughters before Dylan was born, so the entire family doted on Dylan very much. 1

Dylan was twenty-seven going on twenty-eight this year, so Sylvia's concern about her son's marriage had started.

She first searched for a potential candidate from the prestigious families in Eastcliff, but she hadn’t found one who met her standards.

The Koch family had spent a lot of money as a disguise of a donation in order to send Dylan to study abroad.

Hence, although he was the third young master of the renowned Koch family, he was much worse than the hardworking high-schoolers in terms of personal ability.

Sylvia didn't want her son to end up with a girl with good looks but empty-minded as he was, so she nitpicked on the list of potential brides for her son and found Jasmine. 7

However, plans always fell behind changes. She didn’t expect that her son would be such a disappointment that he started a fight with some random man at Jasmine's birthday party, and he had even swallowed the ruby necklace because of a stupid bet. 1

She was very frustrated and depressed at this moment. 7

Nonetheless, she didn’t reveal her disappointment in her expression since her son was about to undergo surgery, so she urged her son to quickly get dressed and took him to see his grandmother who had fallen and injured herself.
