"Your father has already publicly acknowledged your identity, so you are a part of The Donovan Family. Since you’re a part of The Donovan Family, you naturally have to be present at family celebrations!"
"If you continue to be this selfish, do you believe I won’t kick you out of The Donovan Family right now?"
Old Master Donovan had wielded power all his life, and there were few who dared to defy his arrangents.
Even Richard Donovan would consider his health and not oppose him directly.
Yet July Quinn again and again acted willfully, challenging his authority!
How could he accept this?
He imdiately reprimanded July Quinn, even threatening her.
Yvonne Donovan also spoke up at this mont: "July, if you have a problem with , I’ll leave. There’s no need to deliberately upset Grandpa because of ."
That’s right, Yvonne Donovan once again tried to retreat to advance, attempting to drive a wedge between July Quinn and Old Master Donovan.
Indeed, Yvonne Donovan found this trick to be frequently successful, especially in front of Old Master Donovan.
Who knew July Quinn’s response would be: "You’re overthinking it, you’re not that important."
Yes, in July Quinn’s eyes, Yvonne Donovan indeed held little weight.
So she wouldn’t upset Old Master Donovan because of Yvonne Donovan, just as she wouldn’t delay her plans to find her mother for Yvonne Donovan’s engagent.
But such a blunt response made Yvonne Donovan’s face turn quite sour and left her at a loss for words.
Fortunately, Old Master Donovan interjected, "Look at your attitude! You claim Yvonne isn’t important, yet you’re disregarding our family’s reputation to spite her."
Yvonne Donovan is now an adoptive granddaughter of The Donovan Family, and her engagent is entirely organized by them.
If July Quinn doesn’t appear at the engagent party, others will surely think there is discord in the family or question Yvonne Donovan’s status.
This series of consequences would affect The Donovan Family’s reputation.
Otherwise, July Quinn’s presence or absence made no difference to Old Master Donovan.
If she didn’t appear, it would be better, as it wouldn’t affect his mood.
But once it involved the reputation of The Donovan Family, Old Master Donovan had to prioritize the bigger picture.
Seeing July Quinn unresponsive, Old Master Donovan asked again, "Be honest, is it because you can’t stand that I still treat Yvonne as my own granddaughter?"
July Quinn remained silent, and the more Old Master Donovan fud.
"Even if you can’t stand it, you have no right to criticize. Yvonne, after all, was raised by . Our bond cannot be replaced by anyone, including you!"
Richard Donovan naturally couldn’t let Old Master Donovan continue to reproach July Quinn like this:
"Dad, don’t go too far! July has just returned to The Donovan Family and doesn’t feel a sense of belonging yet. Besides, she’s eager to find her mother."
"Finding her mother can’t be delayed by ten days or half a month."
"You’re not her, you can’t understand how she feels having never t her mother."
Richard Donovan’s words not only hit the heart of July Quinn but also left Old Master Donovan at a loss for words.
Indeed, in this regard, they had wronged July Quinn.
So Old Master Donovan could only swallow his complaints and left with one last remark: "Anyway, it’s best if you attend Yvonne’s engagent banquet, and if you don’t, at least give a reasonable excuse."
"Yvonne, help out to bask in the sun!"
"Yes."
Yvonne Donovan supported Old Master Donovan as they walked out, and she couldn’t help but frown slightly as they passed July Quinn.
It would naturally be best if July Quinn attended her engagent banquet.
Because Old Master Donovan had promised her that her engagent party would be grand, one that July Quinn could never match in the future.
If July Quinn didn’t show up, it would be sowhat uninteresting...
