Chapter 1388
The old Master Shaw did not answer Sebastian's question, and continued to look down."I know what my uncle-in-law is thinking, better than anyone else," Jennie said. Lately, she has been the one who took care of the old Master Shaw. She saw it with her own eyes how enraged the old Master Shaw was the day Gloria came to his door. He had been so angry that he almost choked on his own breath. Had it not been for her who tended to him in time, the old man would have died out of rage towards the illegitimate daughter he had never acknowledged. Jennie knew how much the old Master Shaw hated that illegitimate daughter of his since she was three. Not even Marcus knew all the details of the conflict between the two, but she knew it like the back of her hand. The old man's contempt towards his illegitimate daughter was deeply rooted into his heart. No one on this table could represent the old Master Shaw with regards to what he thought about the daughter of his illegitimate daughter better than
Chapter 1389
"After all, Mrs. Ford's mother has been bothering my granduncle since she was a child, and even managed to obtain the family name of my granduncle. Not even my mother and I have the honor of obtaining the Shaw name despite being so close to my granduncle. But...a woman like that, how could she..." Lori stopped half-way. Her expression and words remained understanding and innocent, as though she only happened to be dragged into this. She shrugged and looked at the old Master Shaw, doe-eyed. "I think we should let my granduncle decide.""Granduncle?" she called out and the old Master Shaw lifted his gaze and looked at her. She immediately continued, "Don't be scared, Granduncle. Mom and I will take care of you today, you will be fine. Besides, even conflicts that occurred decades ago in the past need to be resolved eventually. Let's take the opportunity today at Uncle Sean's family banquet and resolve everything. I know that some people might get frustrated and become violent after bein
Chapter 1390
Everyone at the scene was stunned at what the old Master Shaw said, especially Sabrina and Gloria, who both gaped at him.Gloria recovered after a split second and scoffed. "What are playing at, old bast*rd? Just say it if you want us dead! I'm going to bite you to death and return every last drop of blood in me that originated from you, right back to you!""Gloria, how dare you??" Jennie gritted out. "How dare you speak to my uncle-in-law like that? The old man is your biological father, what you are doing is immoral!"Jennie had already noticed that something was wrong after hearing what the old Master Shaw said. ‘What did he mean by that? Is he planning to forgive Gloria? No! I have to push these two further into conflict and hatred towards one another!’ she thought."Uncle-in-law, you are too kind, but she won't understand it. Don't get too mad. Don't worry, even if your own daughter doesn't want you, you still have me, right? I will take care of you for the rest of your life,

"Grandpa..." Marcus muttered. Lori was instantly silenced.Sabrina and her mother gave one another a confused look, unsure as to what the old man was planning on doing this time.Jennie blurted out. "Uncle, what did you just say? You...""I said that my Gloria hasn't been willing to acknowledge or to refer to me as her father! It's been over a month and she finally came to the Shaw Family's door and you told her off!"Jennie felt as though her heart had sunk into a freezing lake, but she still couldn't bring herself to believe it. After all, decades had passed since they were young, but the old Master Shaw had always favored her, his nephew-in-law, instead of his actual daughter. But what was going on with him now?"Not only did you chase my Gloria out of my door, you even went to where she is taking dancing lessons to cause all sorts of troubles? Jennie Gibson, you call that repaying your debt to the Shaw Family?""Un-uncle, wh-what are you talking about?" Jennie asked gingerly.
Chapter 1392
At that very moment, Gloria sneered. She shared no affection with her own father, all she had was humiliation and resentment, which is why she would not believe the old Master Shaw when he said he was going to help her find justice. She simply felt disgusted.After a split second of silence, she sneered and said, "Can you stop with tricks already, old bast*rd? If you want me and my daughter dead, just say it. There's no need to be subtle about it. I'm not afraid of you! Even if we die, we are going to come back and haunt you. You are about ninety this year, right? How many years do you have left? Who knows? You might just die at the celebration party for your late wife's nephew along with your family out of joy after killing me and my daughter. That's when we are going to become the fiercest spirits that will skin you alive and drag you down to hell!" She lifted an eyebrow and gritted out viciously. "Old bas*rd! I will curse you to death for every life I am reborn into! I swear that I
Chapter 1393
"I was the one who dragged her mother down, causing her to wait for me in misery for her entire life. I made her the target of condemnation."The old Madam Ford's expression instantly darkened upon hearing what the old Master Shaw had to say. "Hmph! Then you deserve to be scolded! I should be yelling at you too! You old bast*rd!"Sean looked at his mother. "Mom...""Let the old bast*rd speak! If he says anything wrong, I am going to bash his brains in with my cane today as his sister-in-law!""Okay, Mom. Okay.""Go on, old bast*rd!" The old lady commanded while poking at the old Master Shaw with her cane."Oh, okay, sister-in-law," the old Master Shaw continued, "for my whole life, I had always thought that I did the right thing, that I didn't betray my wife. Even when some other woman gave birth to my child, I refused to acknowledge them! I was absolutely capable of not showing any mercy, and I didn't. I even treated the kids of my relatives better than the child that woman gave
Chapter 1394
Both Jennie and Lori were dumbfounded."Spill!" A roar erupted from Marcus. "What have the two of you done to hurt my aunt and cousin? Tell us the truth!"Jennie was so embarrassed at being scolded by someone younger than her that she didn't know what to do with herself. She glanced over at Sean and his wife and found Rose stunned, while Sean observed the situation with concern. Jennie realized that under the power of the old Master Shaw, she couldn't depend on anyone else given the circumstances. Even if Sean wanted to help her out of the temporary bond they shared over that one night of intimacy, Sean's mother, the old Madam Ford, wouldn't allow him. At that moment, she could only face reality."Uncle, you...you being confused, your avoidance to take part in things that happen out there, even your illness and your incapability to eat well were all just a play? Actually, you have known everything from the start, haven't you?" she asked gingerly."Not entirely," the old Master Shaw

"You threatened my aunt, and even asked Grandpa's bodyguards to hit her? Jennie Gibson! To think that the Shaw Family have been keeping a snake around like you!""Isn't that right?" The old Master Shaw agreed. "Not only did she go to where your aunt takes dancing lessons to beat her up, she even plotted against your cousin Sabbie with Lori!"The old Master Shaw turned to look at Lori. "That man who's currently in hospital was brought into the picture by you, wasn't he?""Grand-uncle...""That man came from his hometown, Rock County, which is over a few thousands miles away from South City. He was quite the boss in that town, but he likes you a lot, and you used that to your advantage. You called him over to South City for your plan to frame Sabbie."Lori looked at Sabrina and Sebastian, her eyes widening in fear. Sebastain was expressionless, while Sabrina was gaping at the old Master Shaw. Not only was Sabrina surprised, even Gloria was staring at the old Master Shaw in shock."
