Ulmer could have gone easy on Ben and even let him win for the sake of keeping his face intact in front of Amelie.However, the overconfident words that Ben uttered by saying ‘it’s my victory’ made Ulmer act almost instinctively. He ended up utterly smacking Ben’s hand to the table in no time.Silence filled the whole hall. Nobody spoke a word for a few seconds. Ivy was left in disbelief, and Amelie was also quite astonished by the result.Even Ulmer was not expecting to do what he had done. He was planning on dragging the fight at least for half a minute or so, but then Ben’s words triggered him into reacting before he knew it.“I-I’m sorry,” Ulmer said.Ben’s face turned a bit ugly in response.“Haha,” Calvin laughed out loud. “Why are you apologizing for winning?”“Quite an interesting fellow he is,” Fiona chortled. “And he’s quite strong, too.”“You don’t have to feel bad for losing, Ben,” Amelie told him in front of everyone. “There’s always someone better than us in any field.”

After Amelie explained what happened, Calvin looked at Mollie from top to bottom, but he didn’t say anything to her. Instead, he looked at Fiona.“It’s just one night, Calvin,” Fiona said.Calvin frowned and then loosened his fist. “If anything happens to you due to this mistake, I might not be able to forgive this family.” Saying that he began to walk toward the main door.“Sir, please don’t leave,” Jamie tried to stop him.“Let him be,” Fiona told Jamie. “After he gets some fresh air, he will return.”Jamie then stopped midway.He then asked his mother to come with him. He took her to the backyard and hissed at her. “Why do you always make things difficult for me?”“W-What did I do?” Mollie was confused.“Who told you to use your own skills on his wife?” Jamie was still angrily glaring at her. “What if something wrong happens to her? You think your home remedy can cure what doctors couldn’t for months?”“Jamie, what I gave her is just about an ounce of castor oil,” Mollie said.“She

Jamie didn’t want Ruth to keep acting like this in front of Amelie and her family, so he told her to go and help her mother prepare dinner.Ruth couldn’t refuse even though she wanted to. After all, she was afraid of her parents. Jamie wouldn’t beat her, but Ivy definitely would whenever Ruth crossed the limits.After Ruth left, Mollie leaned into Ulmer and said in a low voice, “She’s probably angry that you defeated her brother in arm wrestling. So don’t take her words to heart.”“It’s alright, Grandma,” Ulmer smiled back.Amelie was tossing a grape into her mouth. The grape hit her chin and was falling down. Ulmer swiftly kicked it up with his foot and caught it in his hand, surprising her very much. However, Ulmer then put the grape in his mouth, which made Amelie’s face flush a little. Did he do that on purpose? But he wasn’t even looking at her. Was all this intentional? She couldn’t tell.“You’ve got great reaction speed, boy,” Fiona complimented Ulmer.“Haha,” Mollie proudly la

Calvin looked for Ulmer but didn’t find him anywhere in the house, so he asked Mollie where he was. She told him Ulmer and Ben were sleeping on the rooftop.Calvin was shocked. “They slept outside? How would they bear the cold?”“They are young, so they can bear it, Mr. Calvin,” Mollie said, smiling because Calvin and his family members were so rich they were acting like sleeping outside was a difficult thing when it was not an uncommon thing for the middle class and especially the lower class people.Calvin wasn’t willing to climb the stairs, so he had to wait for them to come down.Meanwhile, on the rooftop.Ulmer was sleeping soundly, which annoyed Ben quite a bit. He was already awake. “Tsk, I couldn’t even get good sleep because he kept snoring like a pig!”Ben sat up and looked angrily at Ulmer who was seemingly having the sleep of his life. He felt like pouring a bucket of cold water on Ulmer right now.“His family died, but he’s able to sleep so well,” Ben shook his head. “I g

As Ulmer served Calvin and Fiona, Mollie served her son Jamie.All three of them tried the salad first because it was more eye-catching compared to the other two dishes.Calvin hesitantly tasted the dish, but his impression immediately changed. Fiona also looked at him, and they nodded together. Their body language clearly told Ivy that they were satisfied by its taste.Ivy waited for Jamie’s response.And Jamie faintly smiled at his mother after tasting the salad. Though he didn’t say a word, Ivy could see that he liked the salad.Just Mollie served the salad to Ivy and said, “Actually, my daughter-in-law tasted the salad first and then added some salt, so she’s also responsible for its taste.”Calvin and Fiona looked at Ivy, forcing her to smile awkwardly.(Is she trying to embarrass me?) Ivy quickly tasted it and didn’t find any excess saltiness to it. (What the… I’m sure I added extra salt to ruin its taste, so why does it taste the same as before? Did she somehow remove the salt?
