The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 14

Old Master Taylor was having mixed feelings. Fane's guess was almost spot on.

The Old Master was a person that cared greatly about his reputation. Back then, he had Fane marry into the Taylor family to prevent Ivan from being enlisted.

That itself was already something that affected the Taylor family’s reputation.

He never expected an even greater shame to come later on. Fane was only married to Selena for a day when he got enlisted the very next day. However, Selena became pregnant soon after.

He was aware that Selena had gotten drunk that night. He even suspected that it could have been Fane that forced himself on Selena.

Never did he expect Selena to claim that it was voluntary. That matter almost gave him a heart attack.

That was why, in a fit of rage, he kicked Selena, her parents, and her 14 years old brother out of the Taylor Residence.

As for Selena’s inability to be employed and the restrictions placed on her, that was the work of Ivan.

"Are you sure I can write any amount?"

Fane was surprised for a moment and then asked while snickering.

"Of course! Just fill it!"

Seeing how Fane was really moved by money, Old Master Taylor's heart rejoiced. Selena's beauty was above others. Furthermore, she was talented in business matters. As long as she divorced Fane, she would have no problem looking for a wealthy partner.

In fact, he heard that Young Master Clark was trying t o court Selena.

"Of course, the Old Master will keep his words. Fill it i n quickly!” said Fiona.

Fiona was extremely excited upon hearing their exchange. She quickly approached the dumbfounded Selena. "Daughter, look. I've told you that he will let you down. You wanted to keep the child for him and wait for five years. You suffered five years of hardship, yet he still ended up choosing money? This i s a materialistic world!"

Selena stood there in a daze. She felt lost. All those years spent waiting, all those suffering, in the end...

"Fane, you... Are you stupid? Where else can you find such a wonderful wife? Are you really giving up your wife and daughter for money? Selena suffered five years of hardship. All those scorn and ridicule she had to endure! She even had to collect trash and gave u p looking for a job!"

Joan stepped forward and looked at Fane, her eyes filled with disappointment. "We can’t be heartless!" 1

"Ma, let him be!"

Selena's eyes were filled with despair, complete despair. The five difficult years she endured came to such a conclusion.

"You see? Selena, all men are hopeless. I've told you to abort the child, yet you didn't listen!" 1

Cecilia then added out of the blue, "Sigh, although I can’t find a boyfriend, it's still better than you finding a n undependable one!"

Selena's eyes were tearing up. She looked at Fane, feeling hopeless. "Have you decided?"

Fane smiled. "I've decided!"

Having said that, he started scribbling on the check.

He then quickly passed the check back. "I'm done. You told me to fill it up!" 1

"Hehe, of course, I'll keep my word!"

Seeing Fane choosing money, Zeus’ gaze showed a hint of disappointment.

At first, he had come to respect Fane a little bit more. H e was thinking if Fane were to show some capabilities and treat his granddaughter well, that would also be acceptable. 2

Unfortunately, this person failed.

However, he froze up after he looked at the check.

On the check, it was written with a string of numbers,"

999999999999999999..." 1

At the end of the string of numbers, it was followed by ellipsis!
