"Hmph! So you're finally admitting you acted impulsively," Caleb Sterling snorted, his voice hard. "Are you aware that your actions have made the Sterling Family the biggest joke in Aethelburg? How are we supposed to maintain our standing here now?"
Every time Caleb Sterling remembered the rampant gossip of the past two days, he wished he could just strangle Rosalyn Sterling. The only thing stopping him was the thought that she still had some use.
Seeing Rosalyn Sterling's meek and obedient demeanor, Caleb Sterling's anger subsided slightly. "For now, just focus on recovering at home. I've already made arrangements. Once you're a little better, you'll go to S-City to learn how to take over the Sterling family's jade business. I'll have people on site to guide and assist you." His cold words carried a hard edge, leaving no room for refusal.
