Right at this moment, Stella turned to look at him in confusion, “Why aren’t you sure of it?”

“It’s because she chased after a man at her birthday party several days ago regardless of the presence of many people. When today’s worship ceremony is over, I guess they will criticize her emphatically.”

When the doyens of the James family began to educate a person, it would last for several hours.

The younger generations in the James family, no matter how naughty and unruly they were in usual times, would be obedient in the two months before the ritual gathering as they were afraid that they would be criticized in the ancestral hall if they created any trouble. The worst thing was that they couldn’t refute it and could only listen to their criticisms obediently.

If they tried to refute or showed any weird expression, the denouncement, which was supposed to come to an end in several hours, would last for longer.

Stella groaned a simple answer and slowly withdrew her gaze.

When Archer was talking excitedly, he spotted the coldness in Clarence’s eyes.

He immediately adjusted his expressions and stood there with his back straightened.

Maybe Elaine had heard his words, she subconsciously turned around. Her eyes lit up when she saw Clarence, but when she prepared to run towards them, her arm was grabbed by her father Franklin.

Franklin criticized her in a low voice, “Do you know what day it is today and where you are?”

Elaine then turned around reluctantly.

Franklin looked toward Clarence and Stella, knitted his brows and pulled a long face.

Stella had seen such an expression numerous times, but she could understand it. After all, when a father saw the man who abducted his daughter, it was normal for him to become angry.

Archer said in a whisper, “Almost all the James are here and the worship ceremony will begin five minutes later.”

Stella asked, “But Darnell hasn’t arrived.”

Just as she finished the words, a tall man walked into the door.

It was Darnell.

The ancestral hall, which was prevailed by discussions, immediately became silent because of his arrival.
