Sir Ares, Goodnight

Grand Old Master Severe's body started trembling, and he suddenly slammed his cane to the ground fiercely before howling to the sky. "Heavens, just how much did our dear Angeline suffer? How did such a resilient and strong child end up like this?"

George's eyes appeared bloodshot as he glared at the Yorks resentfully. He clenched his fists and furiously exclaimed, "All of you with the surname Yorks, how dare you people show your faces in the Severe household? Get out, all of you."

The guests started pointing at Chloe and whispered, "S o she's Angeline's mother-in-law, what an evil person! She pushed the lively and cheerful Angeline to the edge."

"Exactly. Just take a look at her. She doesn't seem very easy to deal with too. Angeline's so unfortunate to get such a vicious mother-in-law."

"Lady Severe is truly the gentle and kind one. That's why her daughter is so well-mannered. If it were any other younger daughter-in-law, they would never have been able to withstand such a wicked mother-in law. If it were my daughter getting such treatment, I would've brutally beaten her up."

Chloe had never been subjected to such insults all her life. Her eyes turned scarlet from anger, and she ferociously glared at Lady Severe.

Now that Angeline is sick, I'm very much mournful and want to seek justice for her sake. But after what's said and done, we're all family, and everyone's the loser in a family feud. So let's put the past behind us, and whoever speaks ill of Angeline in the future, I will no longer tolerate it. Once Angeline returns, she will be the person in charge of the Ares family.
