When Josephine was about to say something because she couldn’t take it anymore, Margaret yelled at her, “Shut up!”

A few seconds later, she carried on with the conversation and added, “Jonathan, weren’t you thinking of getting married to Josephine again? Just consider it done! You’re the son-in-law of the Smith family again from today onward!”

Margaret wouldn’t stop cursing her son-in-law in her mind, but she did a great job keeping her emotions to herself. “Jonathan, stop joking around. It’s not like he would know who I am. Why don’t you approach him on our behalf since he’s your subordinate? He was kneeling in front of you earlier, wasn’t he?”

powerful and mysterious backer, he decided to add on to that misconception. He came up with something fun and announced, “Actually, that’s not the case; they kneeled to show respect to the one I’m affiliated with, not me!
