Cole's face turned black as coal. "If she refuses to forgive me, then I'll sever ties with you. When you grow old, you can go ahead and pick up a wild child from the streets to take care of you."
Spencer clenched his fists in anger. "Are you even listening to yourself, kid? Do you think I need you to support me? I'll ask Carson to do it if you refuse to-"
Carson glanced at his young master. He thought that Old Master Yorks had crossed the line this time, hence he decided to stand on Young Master's side.
Carson put on an awkward expression. "I need to take care of my mom and dad too, Old Master Yorks. I'd like to help you, but I can’t. I'm sorry."
Spencer said, "My oh my, what should I do if no one is willing to take care of me? I have so many treasures. Should I perhaps donate it to the country?"
Carson turned his coat almost immediately. "Old Master, I can marry a lot of wives and have many sons. I should be able to support another person with n o problem."
Cole snapped. "Have you no integrity at all, Carson?"
Carson shrank back in fear, too afraid to answer.
Spencer said, "You may have gotten Angeline using a
rather dirty method, but your long-cherished wish has been realized now. It's too late to change anything now. She’s your woman. When a woman loses her chastity to you, her heart will be yours too.
"Rather than raising a ruckus here, you should go back and comfort her instead. Hurry up and prepare a grand wedding for her to cheer her up."
Cole glared bitterly at Spencer. "I don't need you to remind me of what I should do."
He loved Angeline and would offer everything he had t o her.
Cole retaliated, saying, "I know you’re eager to have grandsons, but I must remind you that Angeline already has three children. I’m not going to force her if she refuses to carry on the Yorks' ancestral line."
Cole was not saying this out of sudden impulse.
He knew better than anyone that the Yorks destroyed Angeline’s husband's family, hence Angeline would most probably find it hard to forgive the Yorks.
Naturally, she would be unwilling to carry on the Yorks ’ ancestral line.
