Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1181

The annual banquet of the Soo family officially began at ten o'clock in the morning, at the Soo family's hall.

The distinguished guests of South Bay City City were seated below according to their social status.

Egbert Soo, also known as Master Soo, appeared at the main seat clad in robes. Behind him were his three children - Somoset, Ernest and Lyla.

Then, the third generation of the Soo family followed after them. Zarriah and Momo walked out together.

There was a seat for Harper too. However, he was still going through the harsh intensive training at the Stealth Team base in Jade City, so he couldn't attend the meeting.

Egbert was glowing as he glanced at the invited guests below, and announced loudly with a smile, T m honored by the presence of everyone here who took the effort to join the Soo family's annual banquet."

"It is an honor for us to be here." "Master Soo, the pleasure is mine."

"The Soo family annual banquet is a grand event in South Bay City."

A round of compliments echoed in the hall. The Soo family felt proud and smiled.

Egbert nodded, then gestured for everyone to quiet down before he continued, "The main agenda for the annual banquet today is my granddaughter, Momo's marriage."

"Momo has reached the age for marriage, and it's time to find her a suitor. If anyone is interested, please come forward. The Soo family will consider him carefully."

As soon as that was said, everyone turned to look at the Yao family.

Everyone present knew that Master Soo's speech was just for the sake of formality - in reality, Momo's marriage had long been decided and it was to marry Hector. Master Soo was just being polite. If someone really were to step out and propose, they would obviously become a laughing stock.

The Yao family obviously had the same idea. After Egbert said this, Hector looked towards Momo, and the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a brilliant smile.

Just then, Finnegan, the elder of the Yao family, and Hector's father, Salgado, both stood up at the same time and made an obeisance by cupping their hands together as they turned to everyone.

Then, Finnegan said to Egbert, "Egbert, the Soo and Yao families have been friends in South Bay City for many years. Moreover, I have watched Momo as she grew up into a fine young lady. Therefore, I would like to propose to Momo on behalf of my grandson, Hector."

Salgado also turned to Somoset and continued, "Somoset and I are also old acquaintances. Momo is beautiful and talented, well-behaved and sensible, and she is definitely a wife candidate. Hector has been in love with Momo for a very long time. Will you fulfill my son's wish?"

Somoset smiled and answered, "Salgado, you are too humble. Hector is young and promising. A talented young man in South Bay City. It is an honor for our Momo and Soo family to have Hector's favor! Since Hector is interested, then Momo would agree too."

After he finished he words, Somoset glanced at the old master. Egbert immediately added, "Since both parties are interested, I am here to announce that the marriage has been decided."

Everyone else began congratulating the two. Many guests even took the lead and started applauding.

"Young Master Hector and Miss Momo are both talented and good looking, they are indeed a match made in heaven!"

"The both of them are outstanding talents, what a perfect match!"

"There will be another fairy tale on everyone's in South Bay City in the future."

"Is this the marriage of the prince and the princess? What an envy."

The marriage that everyone expected was about to be settled.

The two elders of the families had agreed on the engagement way earlier. They made the final decision after all the formalities. However, all the while, no one had asked Momo what she would have wanted, and no one even consulted Memo's father, Ernest.

Just when Egbert was about to announce that the marriage was set, a loud voice interrupted Master Soo's words. "Wait a minute."

Then, everyone saw a young man stood up and stared straight at Egbert. "Wait a minute, I object to this marriage."

In an instant, everyone's focus was on this young man.

Those who were slightly familiar with him, recognized him immediately. He was none other than Fade.

A smile appeared on both Momo and Ernest's face when they saw Fade.

On the other hand, the Egbert, Somoset and the others' faces darkened, especially Somoset's.

Somoset stared at Fade and exclaimed, "What are you doing? This is no place for you to mess around. Get out!"

Fade did not flinch, and instead replied loudly, "I'm not messing around. If I heard it right, Master Soo himself announced that anyone who is interested in Momo can propose to the Soo family." "You..." Somoset's face paled. Master Soo did indeed say those words.

Fade continued: "I have admired Momo for a long time. So, according to Master Soo's words, I am eligible to propose a marriage too. I hereby formally propose to the Soo family to win Miss Momo's heart. Please agree."

As soon as his words came out, the scene was in an uproar.

Although many had heard of the scandal between Fade and Momo, they did not expect him to daringly offend both the Soo and Yao families in such occasions by expressing his love for Momo publicly. Everyone started to gossip and Yao family's expression looked grim. Hector's face turned green as he stared at Fade with hatred.

Several of the Soo family members also looked terrible.

When Somoset heard Fade's words, he immediately waved his hands dismissively. "The Soo family disagrees with your proposal. Guards, throw him out of here!"

After speaking, Somoset was about to chase Fade out.

Fade replied to Somoset in a loud voice, "I am proposing to Momo. It would only be fair for Momo to decide whether she agrees or not. Words from the others shouldn't be counted."

With that said, Fade looked at Momo and said, "Miss Momo, will you marry me?"

When Fade asked the question out in public, Momo's cheeks blushed. She took a step forward and said with a smile, "I do. I will marry Fade."

"Wow!" As soon as these words came out, there was a clamor.

Somoset, Lyla, Zarriah and the others turned to Momo with disappointment. "Momo, you..."

Egbert slammed the table and stood up in a rage.

"This is nonsense. I don't agree to this proposal."

Momo said anxiously, "Grandpa, this is my own marriage. I want to make the decision myself. I really like Fade and I want to marry him. I will not marry anyone else." "Nonsense, shut up," Master Soo shouted at Momo, his eyes were red, and anger was evident on his face.
