"My dad..."
Jayden Maguire was about to speak when Nana Monty quickly interrupted him: "Dad, why are you asking this? Even if you're told, you won't recognize him."
Nana Monty broke out in a cold sweat, nervously.
She remembered that her own father loved watching the news and he must surely remember Jayden Maguire's father.
These past few days, the trial involving Jayden Maguire's father has been all the rage, and if her own dad found out, he would definitely be anxious and upset, which could affect his health.
It's better not to let him know.
"Just because I don't know him, doesn't mean I can't ask. In the future, when I brag to the people in the village, I could boast about my in-laws being high-ranking officials in the Capital. Maguire is a major general, right? His dad must be even more impressive," dad said, hoping to have his moment of pride.
These years, because Nana Monty remained unmarried, he had been the butt of jokes in the village, unable to hold his head high.
