“Sansa, I had only one daughter and she died the day she decided to betray the family,” As Kelvin spoke those words his heart ached. Having cultivated to the card emperor realm, he still couldn’t give his only daughter the life she deserved. Despite all that love for his daughter Kelvin said those cruel words in front of Sansa because of the same reason he sat by and watched his family remove his only daughter’s name from the family ancestry book.

“I am sorry uncle but I think you should cut Ellen some break, no matter what she did, she loved you,” Sansa seemed to be defending her late friend but her words added to Kelvin’s pain and she knew it better than anybody else. She was enjoying it. The only reason she had left this old man alive was to satisfy this particular sadistic side of hers.

Not just Kelvin, but from the corner of her eye, Sansa saw her husband’s expression turn complex and him trying hard to maintain a poker face. Sansa did not mind, after all, she won. Sansa may have left Ellen and her family alone if her husband had not gone behind her back to help Kelvin aid his daughter Ellen. Nah, she probably would still end up hunting Ellen down just for the sake of entertainment.

Sansa wasn’t done there, she continued to add, “I heard Ellen has a son and he is up to no good. Is it true?”

“Yes, the family wanted to forgive his mother’s crime and invite him back into the family but it seems fate wouldn’t have it,” Kelvin said expressionlessly. Kelvin knew the truth behind these words but he chose to use the answer the family used to uphold their appearance. Only he knew how much willpower it took for him to stop himself from breaking the family orders and reach out to his grandson.

“Um, I heard that he is quite a fraudster, and he was caught trying to cheat the southern emperor,” Sansa was enjoying the look on her husband and kelvin’s face, clearly they were not happy to talk about how Ellen and her only progeny ended up.

“I don’t know what really happened but it seems to be true since the Duskborn family has announced the same,” Kelvin decided to continue to answer Sansa with what he had answered to his friends and other acquaintances.

“Sansa, now that you have brought up this topic, I have good news to add to it,” Demigod Baylor finally spoke.

Hearing him, Sansa panicked from inside but her expression remained as usual, and with an elegant smile she asked, “What is it, honey?”

Hearing Sansa address him so dearly, Demigod Baylor’s expression became odd, despite two decades of their marriage Demigod Baylor was still not used to Sansa calling him endearingly. He still had trouble seeing Sansa as anything more than a friend. He knows that he isn’t doing justice to Sansa this away but when he explained this to Sansa before their marriage, she said she was happy with just getting to see his face every morning as for his feelings for her, he can cultivate it slowly with time, she had no problem waiting. Two decades of waiting and there was no noticeable progress.

“Uncle, if you don’t mind I would like to adopt Ellen’s child and raise him as my own,” Demigod Baylor said with great resolve.

Hearing Demigod Baylor asking to adopt Ellen’s only child, a small explosion took place in both Kelvin and Sansa’s minds alike. Despite their surprise Kelvin and Sansa maintained their calm, not letting their real thoughts surface on their faces. Especially Sansa who wanted the boy dead.

“Demigod Baylor, haven’t you heard, the Duskborn family and that boy have no connection whatsoever. So there is no point in you asking for my permission. You do what feels right to you,” Kelvin was overjoyed to hear Demigod Baylor’s proposal but he couldn’t show it outside and chose to reply with a neutral tone. As if this matter did not concern him. But in his heart, he was happy that his grandson would finally get everything he deserved.

“I will support your decision no matter what, honey,” Hearing her husband’s proposal Sansa was not without words, she had a lot to say alright. But knowing that there was nothing she could say to change her husband’s decision Sansa decided to go along with it. And felt damn good about her decision to abort the priority task ‘Blessed Spring’ and focus on the priority task ‘S.O.B.’

On the surface, Sansa planned to agree with her husband but behind the scenes, she planned to delay him from reaching out to the boy, buying enough time for her people to assassinate the boy.

Hearing Sansa agree with his decision, demigod Baylor felt more guilty toward Sansa. But thinking that Ellen and Sansa were best of friends he thought this was what Sansa wanted.

Hearing Kelvin’s response, which basically said he did not care, Demigod Baylor was not satisfied with it. Because Demigod Baylor knew Kevin was just putting up a front. He felt Kelvin should be honest about his thoughts, after all, he was among friends.

Therefore Demigod Baylor looked at Kelvin and said, “Uncle, please be honest about your thoughts, you are among friends. In here you don’t have to keep giving neutral answers as you do outside. If there is anything I can help with, please tell me, I will help you to the best of my abilities.”

“Demigod Baylor, if you put it that way. I do have one request to ask of you but I don’t want to trouble you,” glancing at Sansa Kelvin finally opened up to Demigod Baylor.

“Uncle please don’t hesitate, tell me what you need I will see through it to the best of my abilities,” Demigod Baylor let out a gentle smile seeing Kelvin finally deciding to open up to him
