Angel's innocence had always come with an imperceptible sense of disobedience. Jens frowned slightly. If only he had been more sensitive.
Jay brought his sons and adopted daughters back to Imperial Capital, which was considered a small reunion for the Ares family. Hence, Grand Old Master Ares specially invited the descendants of the Yorks family as well to reunite for dinner.
During the banquet, the two older men, Grand Old Master Ares and Grand Old Master Yorks, were still in a love-hate relationship with each other. Grand Old Master Yorks said arrogantly, "Ares, Jay’s ability to complete such an arduous and complex task this time is enough to show his excellence. You have to thank the Yorks for this. If it weren't for my daughter’s genetics, we wouldn’t have such an outstanding child."
Grand Old Master Ares shot him an angry look. "Your daughter might be excellent, but she has a lot of shortcomings.
Fortunately, my Jay didn't inherit those shortcomings but inherited his grandmother's love and broadmindedness. Otherwise, just relying on those monsters produced by the Yorks, you'd be better off wishing you had a grandson like him in your next life instead!"
The two showed zero sensitivity to each other's feelings and continuously listed down each other’s shortcomings like three-year-old children.
They were divided into factions, so the
Ares and Yorks families soon formed their own camps. The Areses were criticizing Chloe for being out of her mind back then, as well as for breaking Jay and Angeline up so ruthlessly. As for the Yorks, they scolded the Areses for all those years of internal strife, which caused Jay to end up in a wheelchair.
Angeline started flushing when she saw both sides quarreling. She tugged on Jay’s sleeve and said, "Darling, shouldn't we stop them?"
Jay sipped on his wine in contentment. ' Let them argue. It's good for the elderly to exercise their brains."
It was just that as they argued, they brought up things from the past to the present time. Grand Old Master Ares snorted. "If it weren't for all of the troubles you Yorks had to face, why would my Jay have to go to Yorks Stronghold to suffer again and again?"
Grand Old Master Yorks argued, "You have to be reasonable here, Ares. It's clear that the Areses and Yorks are closely related. Otherwise, why was the python emblem unresponsive even after being in the Yorks family for generations? As soon as it reached Robbie's hand, it was activated."
