Grandpa was about to respond when Alex stepped in to address the situation. No matter how hard he tried, any negative comments about his wife would upset him unreasonably.
"An elder like you should be aware of the rules by now. The heirlooms are in the custody of whoever becomes the CEO of the King's multinational. Not every woman is deemed suitable to touch or wear these heirlooms."
Indirectly, their husbands or those directly born into the King's family should have strived harder to attain the coveted position. However, they seemed unable to comprehend his anger.
His response left the other women feeling inferior and envious, prompting Rita to ask in a soft voice,
"Alex, every position in this family is not a matter of choice. If we all had our way, we would be in her shoes, but she obtained everything through sheer luck."
