Elegy couplets are used in mourning for the lost and also in funeral rituals.

It was Old Master Quinn's birthday banquet, and they gave verses as gifts.

It was clearly tearing up the banquet!

Instantly, Kevin Quinn turned brutal and ruthless.

"Bang!" He immediately threw the gift box onto the floor, the verse in it was also broken.

Everyone saw a commotion.

All the descendants of the Quinn family behind Kevin were also dumbfounded.

Soon, they all went berserk.

The guests and servants of the Quinn family around were all shocked after seeing the sight.

Suddenly, the atmosphere froze at the front door of the mansion.

There was a strong smell of war in the air.

There was a strong smell of war in the air.

"Yael Quinn, you son of a bitch! The Quinn family didn't bargain with you, but how could you be so arrogant! You even cursed my grandfather at his birthday party, now get out of here!"

Kevin shouted furiously at her. If Jack Hughes wasn't next to Yael, he'd ask someone to break both his legs.

Yael smiled disdainfully.

Jack on the right bowed slowly and put the couplets back into the gift box.

"This is the gift I have prepared for Old Master Quinn. Mr Kevin, are you also going to get rid of me?"

Jack laughed out loud and handed the gift box to Kevin again, his eyes sharp.

What's?!

Kevin and the others were shocked at the same time.

Kevin gritted his teeth and tried to contain his anger, "Master Hughes, you are the heir to the Hughes Family, the Quinn family respects you. At your wedding, my grandfather and I were there to congratulate you. Now is my grandfather's birthday.'s banquet and this is what you do in return?"

Even when he tried hard to keep it to himself, but his words were still very cold.

"Don't you know that?"

Jack looked slightly surprised, his gaze suddenly turning dull, "Then ask your grandfather! Today, we're going through this door to the Quinn family home. If you don't allow us, then we will fight through it!"

His tone was loud and domineering.

After which, Jack took a heavy step and headed straight for the mansion.

Kevin's expression instantly turned hostile and wanted to stop him.

But Brent and Yael stepped forward together.

Brent's towering physique instantly stopped Kevin from stepping up.

Yael said in a cold voice, "Do you want to tell everyone and ruin the birthday party?"

Kevin's expression changed in a second and hummed indifferently.

He then turned around, led several descendants of the Quinn family, and walked into the mansion.

"Idiot."

Yael smiled disdainfully.

Jack smiled and was about to enter the mansion with a few others.

Suddenly, there was a giggling cry coming from behind him.

"Yael!"

Yael was surprised and immediately turned around.

Jack, Brent, and Joe Hughes all stopped and looked back.

They saw a young lady wearing a white dress happily running towards them.

He immediately jumped into Yael's arms and smiled broadly, "Yael, it's been a long time since I last saw you."

"Down Amelia. You've grown up and become heavy." Jael pretended to be trying hard.

Amelia squeezed her mouth and landed on the ground. He said sadly, "You're heavy. I've been losing weight lately, I'm not heavy at all."

Yael rolled her eyes, she held Amelia's hand and walked over to Jack, "Amelia, let me introduce you. This is Jack, my friend."

Then he told Jack, "This is my sister, Amelia."

There was a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

He smiled and shook hands with Amelia.

Amelia is cheerful, she calls Jack by his name when they shake hands.

"Are you here to celebrate the sad old fool's birthday?" After all the introductions, Yael asked in a low voice.

"Yes, but I'll leave after sending the gift." The smile on Amelia's face disappeared, her appearance was extremely dull.

Jael frowned, "It's been two years, that pathetic old fool still wants you to obey the same rules?"

"That was my fault, wasn't it?"

Amelia shrugged, she pretended to be fine and smiled as she said that. But everyone could see the sadness and disappointment in his eyes.

Yael's face turned grim and held Amelia's hand, "Today, I'm here. I'll let you stay here until the banquet's over. No one dares kick you out!"

"Jael..." Amelia's face slightly changed, she slightly panicked, "This, this is not a good thing, what if..."

"Don't worry about anything that might happen. You are the only little sister I have in the Quinn family."

Yael's expression was ice-cold, his eyes full of determination, "After the incident that befell my family, I no longer involve myself in anything about the Quinn family. But what happened two years ago, the Quinn family is still acting like that. Since I'm here, then I'll protect you!"

His tone was firm, making Jack and Brent amazed who were right next to him.

All the time, Yael gives people the impression that he is cynical, and he doesn't care about the Quinn family.

But his sister suddenly appeared out of nowhere at this moment.

And that even frustrated Yael!

"About that, what really happened?" Jack asked curiously.

Yael held Amelia's hand and headed towards the mansion. At the same time, they tell Jack the story.

In the past, Amelia was amazing. Right after she turned 18, she went to university but simultaneously ran the company she had just founded. He runs his company so impressively that it shows a trend that they can dominate the city X market.

With his talent, he could become the greatest elite in the younger generation of the Quinn family.

But two years ago, Amelia was in a relationship. Maybe it was his first relationship or he was too young. They ended up getting married very quickly and having a family together.

But the man had a poor family but the Quinn family did not allow women to marry men of lower social status. They thought it was embarrassing, so they forced the man to marry into the family and become the living daughter-in-law.

Unfortunately, the man was quickly unable to withstand the pressure and suffering of being a stay-at-home daughter-in-law. Shortly thereafter, he chose to divorce Amelia.

Marriage for two months!

When Amelia was still recovering from the pain of divorce, the Quinn family found the divorce too embarrassing. So for the sake of the Quinn family's reputation, not only did they seize Amelia's company, they even treated her like a stranger. Whenever there was an event, he could attend but could not stay too long!

Amelia was not in the direct lineage of the Quinn family, the resources she got were limited so establishing the company fully relied on her own abilities. Because of his ability, he was still able to attract attention in the Quinn family. But the divorce completely destroyed everything he had built.

Even as they summed up the whole story, Jack could still make sense of it all.

Isn't that similar to Yael's meeting?

They sympathized with each other because they had the same meeting. No wonder Yael is so outrageous about this.

But Jack still thinks everything's funny.

The Quinn family actually made their actions quite despicable just to save their face.

Amelia had founded her own company at the age of 18. He even goes to great lengths to make his company the best in the market. With her skills and some extra training, Amelia could become the future elite of the Quinn family.

But contrary to what was expected, the Quinn family did not appoint Amelia regardless of her merits. They chose to keep their so-called reputation instead.

Is reputation important to noble families or giant corporations?

Jack realizes when Yael tells the story, Amelia looks very frustrated and depressed. But there was aversion and anger in his eyes.

Clearly, deep down, he still cared even as he continued to act as if he did not care at all.

"Jack, please don't interfere with this. Amelia will be staying with us today!"

Yael suddenly became resolute, "I want to see which idiot from the Quinn family dares to kick my sister out today."

Jack smiled casually as he patted Amelia on the shoulder.

"Let's go, we're here. Today not even Old Master Quinn would dare kick you out!"
