“Yo, so this is Mr. Z of the Hamertons?”
A middle-aged man looked at the video on his phone and revealed a cryptic smile, especially after hearing Zephyr
say, “Do you think we’re pushovers?”.
Rowan poured himself a cup of tea as he stared at the chessboard, figuring out what to do next.
“I’m talking to you. Why are you looking at the chessboard?”
Rowan lifted his hand and put the chess piece down. “Gotcha!”
The man widened his eyes.
“You…”
“Who asked you to check out my son-in-law instead of paying attention to chess?”
The man gave him a look of disdain, just like looking down on the enemy on the battlefield before.

he returned next time so that he would be less bored.
It was an isolated courtyard with an artificial mountain, flowers, and plants. If one did not see the many guards
outside, it would be hard to imagine this was a part of the Southeast Aciatic Prison.
The man who was playing chess with Rowan was the glorious general, Noah Harris.
The latter was temporarily held in the prison, waiting for his hearing. However, Noah had used his connections to
put him in this heaven on earth. He even visited him frequently. The two old buddies would drink tea, chat, and play
chess. They were living a good life.
Cordelia thought it was an eye-opener when she had a video call with him. “So, dad, there’s a VIP room in prison
too?”
Rowan chuckled. “What? That brat Zephyr didn’t tell you what it looked like when he lied to you?”
She pouted and hung up the call.
Zephyr had never been in prison, so how would he know if there was VIP treatment or not?
“Hey, why are you dreaming?” Noah waved in front of his eyes.
Rowan put the chessboard away when he snapped back to his senses. He did not want to play anymore.
Noah did not care about chess. He still had his eyes glued on his phone, watching the scene where Zephyr stood up
for his mother-in-law.
“Buddy, you got lucky on your live-in son-in-law. He’s so good to your family!”
“What live-in son-in-law!” Rowan’s eyes widened. “My daughter married into the Hamertons, okay? Stop spewing
nonsense!”
Noah glanced at him. “Wow, you’re protecting him? Didn’t you despise him before?”
“I despise you!”

“My son-in-law is the best in the world!” Rowan looked at him with his side eye. “If you dare spew nonsense again,
don’t blame me for stabbing you with my needle!”
The two old men did not want to yield. Soon, they started arguing in the ‘VIP prison’.
Neil was dumbstruck when he arrived and saw that.
He quickly separated them.
“Dad, uncle! What are you guys doing?”
“Nothing, nothing!” They smiled at him at the same time. “Just exercising, that’s all!”
He was rendered speechless. “You guys are old and will hurt yourself if you move too much. If you hurt your…”
Rowan and Noah rolled their eyes at him at the same time.
Neil got back to business. “Dad, uncle, I have something to discuss with you two.”
Noah discarded his joking expression and glanced with his sharp eyes. The guards around left.
“The hearing will happen at the end of the month next month. The king and queen will be there.”
Rowan smiled while nodding. He had expected that.
It was just that it would take quite a long time to get to the hearing day.
