Aaron gritted his teeth in anger. “They didn’t even invite us for offerings, yet they expected us to give blessings to Joycelyn?”

“Dad, keep your voice down,” Gavin urged, speaking in a tone of concern.

Lily’s eyes burned with anger as she glared at the elegant figure of Joycelyn in the family chapel. “None of us have been included! Why does she, a commoner, deserve it?” In that moment, her hatred for Joycelyn reached its peak.

As an elder, Aaron could at least understand the significance of the genealogy. Not only had he never been included in it, but even his mother had never been granted entry, despite their past status.

Genealogy had a value beyond mere status; without it, one was not considered part of the Grant family and was not even on the same level as the servants.

As long as one was part of the Grant family, one could benefit from its vast enterprises. Even the most insignificant member received millions annually, and future generations continued to benefit from the family’s protection and resources. This longstanding tradition lasted over a century.

Once Joycelyn joined the Grant family, any children she had, regardless of gender, would be the first in line for inheritance. She would also have inheritance rights, inheriting the family’s vast fortune and numerous global assets.

The older generation would have to defer to the wishes of the young couple. At that point, any attempts to divide the Grant family’s wealth would be impossible–unless this entire family branch was wiped out.

“A family genealogy entry is a significant matter. Only daughters–in–law expecting children can be added to the records.” Aaron stepped forward respectfully before gently advising, “This has been the Grant family’s tradition for over a century. Besides, it seems the newlyweds haven’t held a wedding ceremony yet.”

“The Grant family’s century–old tradition prohibits keeping secondary partners, but that didn’t stop your mother from shamelessly giving birth to you. Besides, I’m in charge of the Grant Group now. Anyone have a different opinion?”
