After hearing what Aidan Lucas had to say, Lily couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that in the end, it would be great-grandfather who personally kicked Mason Scott out of the house..."
"I thought he would defend Mason Scott with all his might and would stand by him till the end no matter what. After all, at the auction, even though Mason Scott unrecognizably turned his back on his kin, he at least saved great-grandfather's face."
"It's not that simple." Aidan Lucas massaged the head of the woman in his arms, unraveling the deeper significance behind this matter, crushing it, and explaining it to Lily.
"Your great-grandfather did indeed favor his only son, Mason Scott, but that was under the condition that it wouldn't harm the fundamental interests of the Scott family. To him, what mattered most was the legacy of the Scott family. He stood with Mason Scott, which in practice also meant standing with Bella Scott, Tania Scott, and Thea Scott."
