She knew that his use of "aunt" was not to show her respect. Instead, he would not come off as mean and would keep up appearances as the good eldest grandson.

"It's been two days since Grandpa stormed off to bed in a rage. He hasn't eaten anything since finding out what Arnold did. You can imagine his anger."

Aaron's piercing gaze was icy. "The last time Grandpa was so angry was when you insisted on being with Chairman Thompson. You knew Chairman Thompson was married, but you humiliated yourself and your family to be Chairman Thompson's side piece."
