"That's good then. Make sure they hit rock bottom! I want them to crawl back to the slums, where they belong! How dare that General took away what's supposed to be my grandson's!?" Hissed Old Madam Liu into the phone. Senior Liu accidentally heard it when he entered her office.
"What are you doing, mother?" Senior Liu asked in disbelief, sincerely hoping he heard it wrong.
"What?!" Old Madam Liu challenged him with an arched eyebrow.
Then she added, "You and your son are both weak… Letting that General get away with everything, as though he didn't do anything wrong. He stole the Chans's daughter away from us and ruined my plan!"
"Mother!" Senior Liu shouted so loudly that it startled his mother. He scowled at her as his face reddened in rage. Old Madam Liu had never seen her son act like this before.
"What!? Why are you acting like this!?" She hissed.
Senior Liu tried his best to regain his composure. For a few minutes, there was only silence.
