"Jude Scott this old man you do not see him all day long a smiling look, think he is very good talk, in fact, he is very fine"
"Don't worry, Mom has scrounged up a lot of goodies over the years anyway. Leaving the Scott Family is also enough to clothe and feed our mother and daughter for the next life."
This is the conversation that Arya's mother and daughter had together when she first returned.
Arya spoke without any semblance of respect for Jude in her tone.
It was a far cry from the gentle nature she usually displayed.
Arya's sobs stopped abruptly and she looked at Josie with an open mouth and a shocked face.
Josie hooked her lips in a smile and looked over at Jude, "Dad, I'm sorry I snuck a camera into the house to give you a better look at the mother and daughter's faces. Are you sure you want to keep them?"
Jude's face was hard to read at this point.
He pushed Arya's hand away and said in a deep voice, "Housekeeper, ask Mrs. Servello to leave and never set foot in the Scott Family again."
This is throwing her out with it.
Arya blushed and cried as she went to pull Jude's pants down.
"No, Jude, after all these years, I've been true to you, you can't listen to a recording and throw me out."
Jude's face was hard but unmoved, "What are you still standing there for? Ask Mrs. Servello to get out."
"Jude Scott, I'm not leaving, Jude!"
Arya was eventually pulled out of the villa.
The room fell silent for a moment.
Josie looked at her father's ugly face and knew that he was actually intolerant in his heart.
She stepped forward and took his arm, "Dad, I don't want to force you, and if you still want to keep them, I won't object."
All human hearts are long.
Arya has taken care of her father for so many years, and it would be too cold-blooded for him to have no feelings for her at all.
Jude patted Josie's hand, "Come on, I've treated them well over the years. How much have you alienated yourself from your father because of their existence? From now on, you can replace them and stay at home with me, the old man."
Hearing this, Josie smiled, leaned on her father's shoulder, and dutifully answered.
In the past, she was too stupid to let an outsider hog her father's love in vain in order to annoy him.
