Chapter 889 Insulting Jepherson
When Jepherson sat down, he first greeted Paige, "Grandma." Paige was actually satisfied. Back then,
Paige was actually jealous of how Calvin had treated Sophia. However, at her age, she finally
understood why it was easier for grandparents to be on good terms with grandchildren.
"The Cole family''s invitation is here. It''s from Brooklyn. How do you want to reply to it? After all, the
Cole family is rted to your mother. Although we don''t get along with each other, we still have to save
face. I haven''t told your parents about this, so you call the shots."
Paige passed the invitation on the table to Jepherson. He leaned against the sofa, picked up the
invitation, and skimmed it. It was a personal invitation from the Cole Family, which meant that the
banquet was going to be in full swing.
In other words, they had an ulterior motive.
Jepherson looked at it for a while and set down the invitation.
"Grandma, what are you trying to say?" Jepherson knew quite well that there would be no return if they
epted the invitation.
"Although the Cole family is no good, they''re still your mother''s family. Brooklyn is your mother''s great-
grandfather. It''s time for you, the very blessed grandson, to visit him. " Paige thought for a moment and
added, "However, you have to take someone with you. I''ll be worried if you go alone. No matter what,
your mother is still a member of the Cole family. I don''t know what they have done to be so blessed to
have your mother as part of their family. As for the rest..."
Paige paused for a moment and continued, "Of course, your grandparents are quite nice as well."
Jepherson wasn''t fussy about the matter. As people aged, their words would grow harsher and harsher,
but there was no actual malice behind them.
Paige looked at Jepherson as she said, "I''ll call Mr. Atkinson and ask him to go with you. If you don''t
like that, then..."
"Grandma, there''s no need for others to apany me. I''ll go alone."
"Alone?" Paige looked at Jepherson. "Are you sure you want to go alone?"
"Positive. I don''t believe that I''ll be bullied on my first visit to the Cole family. If they really dare to do so,
they''ll be the ones who will lose their dignity."
Paige thought for a moment, then she replied, "You''re right. The Cole family will have to uphold their
own name, so they won''t do anything malicious."
"Grandma, don''t worry about this. I will handle this."
"Alright, I''ll go rest. I''ll leave this matter to you. The young are surely fTristaness, huh. Don''t worry, I will
watch over you." Paige had long heard of Brooklyn, but she had never met him.
One reason was that she was not in Capital City. The other reason was that Brooklyn was so old that
he could note out and meet anyone easily.
No one dared to look down upon Paige''s identity at present. However, she had been nothing in the first
twenty years.
"I got it," Jepherson agreed. Since Paige had exined everything clearly, she returned to her room.
After she left, he went back, sat down on the sofa, picked up the invitation card, and continued to read
it.
Stuart came in from the outside and asked, "Mr. Jepherson, should we tell Mr. and Mrs. Harvey about
this?"
"No, I can handle this myself. If I can''t, they will naturallye back to help me. Do you really think that
the old man doesn''t know what happened?" Jepherson put down the things in his hand and leaned on
them with his eyes closed. Puzzled, Stuart asked, "Mr. Jepherson, I lost you."
Jepherson said, "It''s enough for you to just listen. There are some things that you don''t have to say
when the time isn''t right, even if that means that you have to keep it a secret forever. Remember that."
Stuart hurriedly nodded.
"Mr. Jepherson, will we go tonight? Do you need to rest?" Stuart was worried that Jepherson''s body
would not be able to endure the constant traveling.
Jepherson answered, "I''m going to rest for a while. Wake me up at 10 p. m."
"Mr. Jepherson, the Cole family set the time to 6 p. m. Are we only going at 10?" Stuart failed to
understand his motives. Jepherson nodded but did not exin himself. After that, he got up and went
to his room. He entered the room and began to sleep. At ten o''clock, Stuart woke him up. Then, he
took a bath and changed his clothes. It was already midnight when they reached the Cole family.
At the Cole family''s entrance.

Jepherson got out of the car and looked up at the gates of the Cole family residence. The Cole family
was worthy of their reputation as a big shot in Capital City, as well as the reputable lineage in politics.
Their houses alone were more luxurious and majestic than other families''.
However, the Harvey Group Manor was notcking either. Jepherson''s gaze was incredibly calm. As
he was a person born with a silver spoon in his mouth, his reaction was expected to be one of surprise.
Jepherson stopped as Stuart hurried to the door. He raised his hand and first pressed the doorbell,
then stood at the door and waited for the Cole family members toe out.
Jepherson nced at the time, not taking a step away. After waiting for a few minutes, no one from the
Cole family came out. Jepherson turned around and was about to leave.
At that moment, someone from the Cole family came out.
The Cole family''s Lennox hurriedly came out to open the door. When he saw Jepherson, he notified
him, "Mr. Harvey, you''rete. Old Master Brooklyn has already retired to his quarters. Please,e in
to rest."
"There''s no need for that. We''ll head back to rest and get up Tristany to visit." Jepherson turned around
and returned to the car. He sat in the car and picked up a book, reading it by the faint light in the car.
Lennox was already fifty years old. He had been with the Cole family long enough and had worked
hard to reach such a position. It was not an easy feat.
He looked at the unperturbed Jepherson in the vehicle and could not help but be worried for the Cole
family''s current generation.
Among the Cole family, there was almost no one who could rival Jepherson. What else did he have to
be afraid of?
Stuart hurried back to the car, and the driver drove away. Jepherson put down the book and leaned
against the seat, closing his eyes to rest.
The Cole family''s Lennox returned from the entrance and hurried over to Brooklyn''s side. Brooklyn was
old, but his health was still in good condition. At that moment, he was sitting on his bed.
Lennox entered through the door and hurried over to Brooklyn''s room. Brooklyn''s room was
surrounded by members of the Cole family, including Yousif.
They were all waiting for Brooklyn''s speech.
Lennox whispered something in Brooklyn''s ear. Then, he snorted, "It seems that Jepherson is going to
strike back."
The Cole family members lowered their heads one after another. Brooklyn''s savvy eyes fell on Yousif
as he said, "It''s all your fault for bringing down the entire family and even letting Jepherson control us
and act atrociously. You''re so useless. You can''t even deal with a kid."
"You''re right, Grandfather." Yousif was usually brave, but faced with Brooklyn, he was as timid as a
mouse. He did not dare to retort.
Brooklyn added, "Since her face has already been disfigured, give her the best treatment. Treat it to the
best it can.
"No matter what, Quirina is still part of our Cole family. Just marry her to Jepherson."
"Grandfather..." Yousif suddenly raised his head. Brooklyn had already closed his eyes in an
unbothered manner. He raised his aged hand and waved outward, indicating to everyone to retreat.
Yousif nced at Lennox and thetter nodded. Yousif then led his men out one after another.
No one said anything, but they knew in their hearts that Brooklyn was deliberately insulting Jepherson.
What else could he mean by betrothing a child, who was not even born from a mistress, to Jepherson?
If that wasn''t an insult, what else could it be? By doing so, Meica''s status in the Cole family would drop
even lower.
Brooklyn was killing two birds with one stone: He would ruin Jepherson and pile the mess on Meica.
Yousif''s mood took a turn for the worse. No matter how low Meica''s status was, she was still the
woman he had his eyes on. He possessed the authority to the current Cole family. He was only waiting
for Brooklyn to die before he could bring Meica into the Cole family.
Nheless, with Brooklyn''s current ns, Yousif was thrown off track.
Brooklyn was not insulting Jepherson, but Yousif instead!
