Jarold had not expected things to turn out the way it had.

He would never have imagined that Monica would do such a despicable and shameless thing.

He closed his eyes as he digested these sudden changes. Then, a moment later, he opened his eyes and let out a murky breath. "You can't tell anyone about this." After that, he glanced at the people present with a warning in his eyes.

Geoffrey could understand this. After all, this happened to be the business of a big, aristocratic family. Monica of the family had done such a dirty thing. Wasn't it shameful?

But then, he was shocked when he heard Master Collins's following words.

Master Collins looked at Maddox. He seemed to be disappointed in Monica after hearing what she had done. A tired look appeared in his pair of old eyes as he said, "Even if it was true that she drugged you, you can't deny that you injured her and caused her to be marred by a scar, right?"

Maddox pursed his thin lips and looked at him coldly. He stood there as if he was a statue and

did not move.

The aura around him was gloomy, and his pursed lips were like a straight line. He seemed to have already guessed what Jarold would say next.

He thought for a while and said, "So, let's consider things to be even among you two, alright?"

Geoffrey opened his eyes wide in surprise. Even Baldrick was a little surprised. He didn't expect after all these things had happened, Jarold would... still stand together with Monica.

He was afraid that it wouldn't be good if the situation continued on like this.

Sure enough, after Maddox heard it, an indifferent smile appeared on his thin lips. It seemed that he was not surprised at all and raised his eyebrows coldly.

"And then? If that's the case, Grandpa, you won't let me get engaged to her again, will you?"

Jarold's face didn't look good either.

However, Maddox did speak out what he had in mind. He did think of letting them get engaged.
