Chapter 253

Cedric always had a bone to pick with his good–for–nothing” younger brother, Jason.

He felt Jason spent his days catering to women, fetching their shoes and massaging their feet, like some kind of butler. With no ambition, there was nothing remarkable about him! But who would have thought that Emeric, a prominent figure in Skyrim and a top–tier tycoon, would openly declare Jason as his godson? It was an Indirect way of showing his support for Jason.

What added insult to injury was Emeric’s lavish praise for Jason in front of everyone.

Was he trying to subtly mock Cedric through Jason?

The Ashbourne siblings wore varying expressions. Evadne’s lips curled into a smirk, barely suppressing her laughter.

If Jason weren’t a good kid, I wouldn’t have chosen him. You agree, right?” Emeric’s praise for Jason was a slap in Cedric’s face.
