Newton’s expression darkened when Javier mentioned Alyssa. He demanded, “What did you say?

What does that mean?”

“Everyone in the family knows Alyssa and Sophia have never seen eye to eye. Think about how much

trouble she has caused us ever since. the divorce. This time, Alyssa was present as well when the

debacle happened. Even if she holds no regard for Sophia, she should have shown some respect to

you and our family.”

At first, Javier only attempted to dismiss his misjudgment of his wife’s character, but he was

inadvertently carried away as he vented his anger at Alyssa. “Why choose a somber funeral to settle

scores with Sophia? Couldn’t she have waited until it was over?

Javier was stunned at the resentful look in Newton’s eyes. His blood froze as his temples throbbed. He

questioned, “So, you have never approved of me, have you? You’d prefer if I went to prison instead of

Chester.”

Newton’s eyes wavered, and he slapped the arm of his wheelchair. You and Chester are my sons. To

me, you are both precious. I thought of favoring one over another. It is you who overthink it and

“But now, I feel regretful about my past decision. I regret not putting you in jail for a few years to teach

you a lesson. I regretted not intervening when you insisted on marrying that sly woman! And I regret

not protecting Anne and Jasper. Because of that, Jasper lo his mother at a young age, and you lost a

Newton felt bitter when he recalled the memory of Anne Bartley. “That young lady had never fallen in

“No. That’s impossible…” Javier’s eyes clouded over when he came to the shocking realization. “If she
