Jenson was very resistant to Daddy taking over the Ares and the Yorks’ family affairs. It was because he felt as the Imperial Capital's most affluent and influential family, all the other Ares family's branches harbored corruption and filth. It would be highly inconvenient to manage them. Moreover, those itinerants from the Yorks family and their grudges were even more crafty and uninhibited.
Daddy and Mommy were already utterly exhausted from getting involved with the Areses and the Yorks i n the first halves of their lives. They had experienced all kinds of hardships that involved separations and even death. They should be able to enjoy the rest of their lives after going through so much.
Hence, Jenson was filled with dissatisfaction and said to Jay, "Is this how they repay their gratitude?"
Jay looked at his two vigorous and handsome sons. His dark pupils burst with deep rays of wisdom.
He knew that Jenson and Baby Robbie were slowly growing up.
From babies who knew nothing about the world, they had now grown into tall, upright men. From tiny seedlings dependent on their parents, they had grown into towering trees. From little lambs that needed
protection, they had grown into wild beasts with sharp fangs.
As their father, the only thing he could do now was to trust them and allow them to discover a splendid future on their own.
"Your great-grandfathers fooled your mother into accepting these." Jay stared at his two sons.
Jens and Baby Robbie looked at each other. Their identical faces showed anger and frustration. Baby Robbie said in exasperation, "Those two old men know that Mommy's not in good health. How could they hand her such difficult tasks?"
Jenson mocked them in dissatisfaction. "They have such terrible eyesight. Mommy's a beautiful woman with glowing skin and pretty long legs. She’s just a flower that grows inside of a greenhouse. How could she take on such roles?”
Jay was delighted with their reactions.
"Hence, a mother's debt should be paid off by her sons. So what do you think?”
Jenson and Baby Robbie were both taken aback.
Was Daddy trying to ask them to inherit the emblems instead?
Baby Robbie was not easily fooled and said, "Why can't you take it, Daddy?”
Jenson said, "I've only heard of husband and wife sharing a burden together, but I've never heard that
