Watching Reginald's retreating figure, Matilda muttered with a mix of frustration and disappointment, "Over thirty and still so unreliable. No wonder his dad was considering bringing in a son-in-law to take over the Reed Group..."

Matilda, Reginald's biological mother, had watched her son grow from a mischievous child into a rebellious teenager. At one point, he even went off the rails, getting mixed up with a bad crowd and landing himself in a major mess.
