As his subordinate, Hogan didn't have the right to say anything regarding Tremaine's family affairs. However, if Hogan spoke as a senior member of society, then his opinion held weight.

Tremaine glanced at Hogan. "Mr. Welmert, what are you trying to say?"

Hogan said, "Mr. Tremaine, you are the president of Nashaland, and filial piety is a major priority in our country. That old lady is your grandmother. You've actually made that old lady apologize to a little girl who is still wet behind the ears in front of everyone. This does not

show filial piety!"

The older people get, the more severe and direct their words are.

Hogan was a very intimidating man and had just put Tremaine on the spot.

Yuliana interrupted, "Yes, Mr. Welmert, it's just as you said! I don't believe that Tremaine would have done such a thing on his own. Maybe someone else is behind this!"

In the past, Yuliana wouldn't have dared to say such things in front of Tremaine, but now that Hogan was here, she had become much bolder.

Having heard Yuliana, Madam Quartley's resentment increased even more.

Tremaine ignored Yuliana.

He looked directly at Hogan. "Mr. Welmert, since you yourself have said that I am the president, then let's think of it this way. Did you know that in Nashaland, even if a member of high society commits a crime, they would be punished in the very same way as a commoner would?"

"Of course, I am aware."

"Good." Tremaine said coldly, "Although the lady in question is my grandmother, she still made a mistake and should therefore apologize for it. Don't you agree?"

Hogan's expression didn't change. "What mistake did she make?"

Before Tremaine answered, Madam Quartley spoke, "I just tossed her soup away. Is that such a crime?!"

After Madam Quartley was done talking, Yuliana chimed in. "That woman is so annoying. Madam Quartley doesn't like her, so she tossed the soup. Is that wrong? Doesn't Madam Quartley have the right to toss away the soup of this commoner woman?!" Hogan was quiet.

He felt a dull pain in his head. These two women...
