chapter 30

He sat down after greeting his granddad.

"Oh! Mason's aunt made fun of him by saying, "The runaway's kid is home."

"Stop talking, Shila. The return of your brother's son should make you glad. Why must you say anything like that on his first day of visiting? The elderly master chastised her.

"Why wouldn't I, Dad? Even if several of your grandsons have lived with you for years, you disregard them and give everything to a complete stranger. Is this how you want to treat us? Shila lamented vehemently.

"Yes, it is just. I don't have any prejudice against you people. Each of you is a member of this family. What have you and your sons accomplished throughout your many years of living with me? They can only gamble and go out to clubs. During their time at school, they failed every exam. They constantly leave you with a mess to clean up. How will they inherit the family business if they adopt this attitude?"

"But dad, I've been running the business under your supervision for a while

    Chapter 32Mason visited his mother's house. He had never been to the estate before. He had never had reason to visit. The mansion was huge and expansive, the driveway sprawling. Mason could see a number of cars in the parking lot. He approached the front door, relieved that he did not have to answer any questions to get inside. He swung the front door open and stepped into the entryway.Mason turned to the right and walked down the hallway. He rounded the corner into the living room.On the wall, he noticed his mother's portrait hanging. His mother was just a girl in that picture, not a grown woman with a husband and a child.Mason sighed; He was contemplating something as he looked at the image. After ascending, he found Old Master McDonald in his study."Old master." He called, his face expressionless. Mason's almond eyes were like the depths of the ocean; nothing could be seen, no matter how far you probed, and nothing could be felt. His expression could fool even the wisest ma

He turned to face his grandchildren and continued, "You're Ethan right and you're Ella," Ethan uttered the endearing words, "Yes, great-grandfather," but Ella didn't do much more than nod."Why is the boy so playful when the girl is so icy? Does she think the world owes her?""Grandfather, that's how Ella is; she's a child who rarely speaks and who constantly pulls that long face. Let her be!""If she keeps acting this way, how can she ever find a husband soon? Don't you want her to get married?""how are you able to say that? Why discuss marriage at this age when she is only five years old. There are a lot of things a girl her age should be worried about and that does not include marriage. Plus She is cute and gorgeous.""Grandfather, you seem to be from another planet." Ethan said to the amazement

Leonard was absent, giving her no resistance. "Mason," she exclaimed, but then remembered their last disagreement and paused mid-way. "Just take it easy my love. You know you can never get rid of me - I'm still the mother of your baby and that fact won't change.""I said I will not accept that child, for your sake and for my own." he replied. "But he's already born. Look at this photo - isn't he cute?" She showed him the picture. "You understand that the child is blameless, and you wouldn't want your child to experience the same as you did. Mason, you can't let it go that far."Tanya then revealed that she had conducted her own investigation and knew why Mason's parents had to flee for their lives - they were on opposing sides.Mason was in a thoughtful state.

Sunlight filtered through the window, casting a warm glow across the room, but his mind was far from the tranquil scene outside. Thoughts swirled in his head, a mix of frustration, confusion, and a touch of disbelief.His grandfather's mischievous suggestion had caught him off guard. How could he have even entertained such an outrageous idea? And to think that Ana's grandfather and his granduncle had joined forces to conspire against him made him feel both amused and exasperated. It was as if their mischievousness knew no bounds.As he pondered the audacity of their suggestion, the sound of the office door creaking open broke his reverie. Leonard, his diligent personal assistant, entered the room with an air of excitement. His voice filled the space, carrying a hint of urgency, as he launched into a lively rant about the hectic nature of the company in Mason's absence."Mason, you won't believe the

    MASONCHAPTER 190As the sun began to set over the ancient castle, casting a golden glow across the vast courtyard, a sense of immense power and ancient wisdom permeated the air. The Lord of the Order of the Witches, a figure cloaked in long, flowing robes, stood at the center of the courtyard, surrounded by towering stone walls adorned with moss and ivy. Behind him, the entrance to the castle loomed, its heavy iron gates creaking ever so slightly in the gentle breeze.In the center of the courtyard, nestled within a small jade cradle, lay a baby. Its tiny face, peaceful and innocent, radiated a pure light that seemed to illuminate the surrounding area. The Lord of the Order, known as Artemus, peered down at the child with a mixture of awe and concern. His piercing blue eyes, lined with age and wisdom, glimmered with an ethereal purpose.Satisfied that the baby, young Seraphina, was now safe from the clutches of evil, Artemus turned his attention to those who had allowed jealousy and
