Carson gulped. Feeling like he had entered a lion's den, he answered in a trembling voice, "To be honest, Ms. Severe, regarding the misfortune that befell the Ares family three years ago, you were supposed to be on the death list because you're their daughter-in-law. But Young Master is too deeply in love with you that he would rather sacrifice his pinkie than to hurt you.

Carson swore, "I will never have the guts to lie to you, Ms. Severe. Who knows, maybe you'll become the Yorks' stronghold's madam one day. I will never go against you even if I have more than one gut." Angeline's heart sank into the abyss of darkness after obtaining a confirmation.
