At the mention of it, Jasper couldn't help but grimace.

He knew it was coming!

Yorick was on a warpath!

And Arthur, always stirring the pot!

Rising to his feet, Jasper cast a cold glance at Arthur. "Aren't you going to deal with this?"

Arthur, ever so calmly, picked up his fork. "Dad, I'm now Arthur South. Your son. And a son's problems? That's for a father to solve."

Bold as brass, he was!

Jasper was speechless.

Outside, Yorick had waited for quite some time without seeing Arthur emerge and decided to storm in.

Seeing Arthur still calmly eating his meal infuriated Yorick to the brink of explosion!

"You ungrateful wretch! How dare you still eat? Who gave you the right to change your surname? Is 'Linklater' too shabby for you?" Before Arthur could respond, Yorick turned to Jasper, fuming, "And changing it to 'South'? Jasper Perez, playing smart, are you? With all your sons, and now you're poaching mine? Think I'm too old to fight back?"

Jasper had intended to have a civil conversation with Yorick, but seeing the latter's rage, he simply sat down and responded indifferently, "Your son insisted on changing his surname. What's that got to do with me? He slept with my daughter and then deserted her. I haven't even settled that score with your Linklater clan, and here you are, demanding answers?"
