"It's a shame I only learned about Miss Sasha after she's married. Still, she and Mr. Matthew Larson are the perfect match for each other. He's the head of the Summit Warden of Martial League and the Holy Doctor of Cathay. An ordinary person could never imagine themselves holding one of the titles. Yet, Mr. Larson achieved both of the titles."
Tritus' compliment brought a smile to James' face. "Oh, please, Mr. Tritus. You're too kind. It's fate that brought Sasha and Matthew together. Even if Matthew isn't a big shot, we won't stand in their way as long as Sasha likes him."
The two exchanged pleasantries. James failed to notice Helen's darkened expression.
"Matthew used to be humble and respectful when he served us at home. Now he has become the Summit Warden, he becomes full of himself. He doesn't even respect us anymore."
Her mockery made James' smile slip. He tilted his head and whispered, "Why did you bring that up?"
Her face contorted in anger at his implication. “I'm just telling the truth! Can't I speak my mind now?"
Her disregard for the outsiders' opinion and attempt to argue with him publicly embarrassed him.
He turned to Tritus and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lullaby. I'm caught up in a sudden family matter. I'm afraid I have to go. I'll surely make it up to you someday."
"It's okay, President Cunningham. I also have something to attend to later, so I'll take my leave too. Goodbye."
Tritus' face was devoid of the sign of displeasure. He bid farewell to James and turned to leave.
