The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 506 Brainless Fools

The Stewarts were gobsmacked to find that Caspian was even more powerful than a senior general.

“H–How could this be? Caspian … really is a big shot!” Marilyn stammered.

“Everyone knows how useless he is. How could he hold an even higher position than General Anderson?” Alicia exclaimed nervously.

“I can’t believe it. I must be seeing things!” Kate cried out. Feeling thunderstruck, she couldn’t bring herself to accept what was happening.

Caspian, the son–in–law she had been disparaging all this while, turned out to be an important figure. His true identity had been kept a secret this whole time.

Kate shook her head, thinking that she had merely been mistaken.

However, the onlookers began to mock the Stewarts.

“You Stewarts are all fools! You mistreated such a powerful son–in–law and even decided to cut off all ties with him! What an idiotic thing to do!”

“How laughable! Willow is the wife of a five–star general. Do you think she cares about nobodies like the Stewarts? Even if they got on their knees and begged for forgiveness now, she wouldn’t bother entertaining them!”

“The Stewarts never had any respect for Caspian, but look at the way things are now. Caspian’s even more powerful than they could ever imagine.”

“The rumors were true, after all. Caspian is indeed no ordinary person. Here we were, thinking they were all lies!”

“What do you expect from the Stewarts when an ignorant old woman’s heading the family? Look what happened to the family. I distinctly remember the family having a much more prestigious standing when Madam Stewart’s husband, the late Mr. Stewart, was still alive.”
