Chapter 41 A Tense Family Gathering

• Stephan wasn’t wrong. Anson had always favored boys over girls. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have forced Isabelle to marry a live-in son-in-law. In some ways, even Isabelle's aunt, Audrey Hart, had it worse than William.
• What Stephan said wasn’t ordinary arrogance. Even Anson furrowed his brows and spoke slowly. "Four years in the military, but still a useless waste. The only thing you’ve gained is a mouth that deserves a slap."
• Stephan clasped his fists, a faint smirk tugging at the corners of his lips as he looked at Anson. "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Hart Senior. But more importantly, I must thank you for the love you’ve shown my daughter. I’ll remember it forever."
