"Hmph, if he could be a bit more promising, would I be this angry?" Ian Douglas’s face remained grim, glaring furiously at Matthew Saxon.

"Sir, it’s normal for young couples to be in love. How can you say the young master is not promising because of this? Aren’t all young people like this when they fall in love? You can’t forbid the young master from pampering his woman just because he’s your grandson."

Uncle Spencer was trying to persuade him while pulling Ian Douglas to sit again, lowering his voice even more: "Sir, why are you so impatient this time? I know the real reason for your displeasure. Isn’t the young master still not married to her? Before that, the situation can still be turned around, but sir, you must keep your cool. The more you act like this, the more the young master will want to oppose you, which won’t be beneficial to your plan in the slightest." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"If he, in a fit of anger, moves up the wedding date or they secretly get the certificate, all your plans will fall through."

Uncle Spencer’s voice was so low that only Ian Douglas could hear it, while others could only see the two men whispering.

Uncle Spencer’s final words were quite effective.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ian Douglas’s expression changed drastically.

Indeed, doesn’t he know his own grandson?

Since childhood, this little brat liked to oppose him. The more he was forbidden to do something, the more he wanted to do it.

If he stubbornly opposes him and Scarlett Yates now, perhaps this brat will really go and get the certificate behind his back.

When he was young, Ian Douglas couldn’t do anything with this brat. Now that he has grown up and become more independent, there’s even less he can do to control him.

If he really gets the certificate with Scarlett, even if he, as the grandfather, gets furious, what can he do?

After analyzing it in his mind and weighing the pros and cons, Ian Douglas’s anger slowly subsided.

This matter can’t be opposed openly; it must be handled quietly.

Not only should he not oppose openly, but in front of Matthew Saxon, he has to be a little more gracious towards Scarlett Yates.

Actually, Ian Douglas had been doing exactly this before. It’s just that this time, with the wedding date approaching, he got anxious, and in a moment of haste, he made a mistake.

"Forget it. You’re grown up now, with your independence, beyond my control. Do whatever you want, anyway, I won’t be here for long. Once I leave, out of sight, out of mind." Ian Douglas sat back, as if he was compromising, picked up the teacup from the table, and drank the now cold tea in one gulp.

With a cup of cold tea downed, the anger was quenched quite a bit, gradually calming down.

During this period, until the meal was finished, Ian Douglas didn’t say anything further.

--

After the meal, Ian Douglas said he was tired and wanted to rest.

It was still early, around eight o’clock in the evening. Matthew Saxon arranged for someone to send Ian Douglas away first, while he took Scarlett Yates to Darknight City as agreed.

Who did they meet up with? Of course, it was his old friends. Roy Saxon referred to this group of people as Fox and Hound Allies, but among these young men, regarded as the troublemakers by common folk, there were indeed quite a few who were genuinely talented.

However, because of their numerous scandals, even when they had some talent, it was overshadowed by widespread tabloid news.

Matthew Saxon hadn’t been to Darknight City for a long time.

Years ago, when indulging himself, he often visited here. After meeting Scarlett Yates, he rarely came here.
