Mr. Law's Official Announcement: He is a Wife-Doting Fanatic!

The father and son, who have a four or five-part similar appearance, stood facing each other, and Adrian Law fixed his gaze on Frank Law’s eyes.

In the middle-aged man’s long and narrow eyes, there was a hint of something almost like guilt.

Guilt?

What right does he have to feel guilty!

Adrian Law felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, but more than anything, it was ridicule.

...

”Father, is it just today’s matter that you were too arbitrary about?”

”If you really feel sorry for my mother and me, please make sure you interfere less in matters between Cecilia and me from now on...”

”Adrian!”

Frank Law suddenly became anxious, watching Adrian Law turn to leave, instinctively wanting to grab his sleeve.

However, Adrian Law moved even faster, avoiding Frank Law’s approach with an almost incredible angle.

Leaving Frank Law reaching into thin air.

Frank Law stared incredulously and painfully at the young man in front of him who looked just like him.

”Adrian, I know you still resent me for what happened to your mother, but think about it, throughout history, you are also a man. It is instinctive to gain the admiration of more women. I admit I wronged Susan, but for so many years, I have felt enough guilt. Even with Tyson and Mabel, I’ve never thought about kicking you out of your position as the heir of the Law Family.”

”As a husband, as a father, I may not be perfect, but compared to many heads of noble families throughout generations, I have been quite fair and considerate. Over the years, I knew you were seizing control over the Law Group, but didn’t I allow you to do so?”

...

Hearing Frank Law’s grandiose speech, Adrian Law’s heart suddenly tightened.

He turned back, feeling a deep sense of irony.

Almost the next moment, his eyes captured Frank Law looking at him earnestly, as if he were the heinous sinner.

”You were fair and considerate? Ha, ridiculous!”

From childhood to now, Adrian Law had never heard such a disgusting joke.

It turns out that as long as a man keeps a mistress and illegitimate children outside, but does not strip away the legitimate wife’s place or her children’s inheritance rights, he’s considered fair and considerate?

”You never considered how much these things hurt my mother, me, and Nancy!”

”You know my mother never wanted to share a room with you again after you got involved with Mabel, but you complained she was putting on airs and indulged even more in pleasure.”

”Yes, maybe monetarily you didn’t mistreat me and Nancy, but you don’t understand how behind my mother’s apparent indifference there was so much sorrow.”

”Even if you won’t admit it, even after Nancy and my mother passed away, you didn’t feel much guilt because it wasn’t long before you joyfully welcomed Tyson and Mabel into the family, and even threw a grand banquet...”

In this lifetime, Adrian Law rarely spoke so much at once.

He had initially thought he would collapse bringing these things up.

But he didn’t. In fact, he was even cold, and his emotions were calm to the extreme, just feeling as if a part of his heart was missing. Amid his trance, he saw his mother, clearly exhausted, yet still pretending to smile in front of him and Nancy.

His mother, always sharp and strong.

He understood that his mother did not choose to divorce, not because she couldn’t, but because she was concerned about him and Nancy being in the Law Family and fearing how difficult it would be to fight for custody.

After all, there were likely few in Veridia who could genuinely challenge the Law Family’s power.

Even with the best prospects, if the Law Family indeed conceded, it was likely they would only let Susan take Nancy.

Even when, at that time, Frank Law already had an illegitimate child, Tyson, with Mabel Keaton outside.

Susan Roswell could not stand to see the siblings separated.

She ultimately chose to endure but could no longer accept living as a normal couple with Frank Law.

...

This was not cowardice.

In a way, Adrian Law understood that his younger self had held back his mother’s steps.

If Susan Roswell had indeed wished to seek her own happiness, abandoning her children, she likely could have found someone she truly resonated with.

Moreover, his mother bore all the pain of being hurt, unwilling to confide in others, even in front of Adrian Law and Nancy Law, she never vented her grievances like a bitter woman, complaining about her father’s infidelity.

Instead, she encouraged them to be righteous, brave, and devoted in the future, and to treat their partners well.

Thinking of past events brought warmth to Adrian Law’s eyes.

Men aren’t quick to shed tears; it’s just that they haven’t reached the point of heartache.

But the next second, the mist in Adrian Law’s eyes turned into a sharp cold light.

”Do you admit to these things?!”

Confronting his son’s long and cold eyes, Frank Law felt anxious for the first time.

He frowned, yet remained unwilling to admit how horribly wrong he had been.

”Adrian... all of that is in the past... why do you cling so deeply to it?”

”Heh... it’s all in the past...”

Adrian Law shook his head, curling his lips into an icy smile.

”This lifetime will never get past it.”

In the dead of night, sometimes he would still think of his mother’s unparalleled beauty, tenderly embracing him and Nancy, teaching them reading, painting, and playing music.

”I’m sorry...”

Frank Law’s lips moved slightly, finally forcing himself to lower his head with extreme reluctance.

”That’s not all!”

Adrian Law stared coldly at the middle-aged man’s face.

”Father, whether you admit it or not, you claimed to raise me as the heir of the Law Group all these years, but haven’t you been doing the same for Tyson?”

”In the past, even if Tyson was inferior to me, it wasn’t enough for you to give up on him. But now, because he’s been drowning his sorrows over Fiona Vaughn and almost never comes back home, completely demoralized, you’re disappointed with his lack of ambition and only then inclined towards me, right?”

It’s said that in royal families, there are no fathers or brothers, and isn’t it the same in noble families?

Sometimes, when people are too smart, they feel all the more lonely.

...

Adrian Law’s words starkly embarrassed Frank Law.

His face turned red for quite a while before he barely managed to shake his head.

”There’s no such thing. Who taught you these damn words?”

Isn’t it the same in any noble family?

If the legitimate child isn’t competent enough, of course, you have to find a backup option.

Unable to look directly into Adrian Law’s cold eyes, Frank Law lowered his eyes in embarrassment, increasingly earnestly trying to persuade Adrian.

”Adrian, perhaps you misunderstand your father. In the future, dad will make it up to you.”

”Make it up?”

”What’s lost can never be regained.”

He had already missed the age when he most needed fatherly love...

Some people, when they turn around, it’s for a lifetime.
