Glen's wife had passed away, so the others had been urging Glen to find someone to keep him company so that he didn't need to spend the rest of his life alone.

However, no one could accept it if he were to find a wife who was in her twenties.

Simon continued, “Find yourself a woman in her forties or fifties, okay? In that case, we might be able to accept her. T-That woman is in her twenties! If you marry her, that's unacceptable!”

A trace of anger flashed across Glen's wrinkled old face. He then reached out his hand and smacked the back of Simon's head. “Idiot! What are you on about?”

Simon instinctively tried to dodge it, but he failed.

After getting smacked, Simon pursed his lips and asked, “Didn't you say you like her? What did you mean by that, then?”

Glen scoffed and said, “Only you would think of it that way! I said I like her, but couldn't that mean I want her to marry one of my grandsons?”

“I don't want her.” Simon became emotional again. “That woman has a bad reputation, so I wouldn't want to marry her. Granddad, I'm your grandson, okay? Why would you do that to me?”

Glen glared at him and sneered, “Who said I want her to be your wife? Stop being delusional, will you? I mean Artemis and Edmund.”

Simon was stumped. Granddad is mean, all right.

“Artemis won't accept it. He's into this woman's sister. As for Edmund, there's a chance. Everyone says her son is of the Chivers family's bloodline, right? Who knows? Thanks to her son, she might end up being the next matriarch of the Chivers family,” Simon said.

Glen's eyeballs darted around. At that moment, a mysterious glint flashed across his eyes. Things could be blurry now. However, once the dust has settled, everything's going to be different.

Half an hour later, the trial started as scheduled.

The judge, attorneys, defendant, and the crowd were all there except for the plaintiff.
