Ian was a mild and gentle man. He quietly worked his way up from being a university lecturer to a
professor. His academic theories were solid, and his lecturing style was humorous and interesting.
He was also a simple and honest man. When he came across students from financially disadvantaged
families, he would even help them out from his own paycheck so that the student could focus on their
studies.
With that, he had built for himself a stellar reputation.
Ian Lemmington rarely lost control of his temper, and would always choose to reason and patiently
explain things to others.
His wife was similar.
However, this wasn’t the case with the Jennings.
The Jennings…
Enzo Jennings!
“If it weren’t for your brother, my daughter would never have gone overseas!” Ian said, his eyes filled with
tears.
He had a head full of white hair.
Hope and yearning for his daughter were all that kept him alive.
The thought of his own child made his lips tremble.
As Diana held Mrs. Lemmington, she could tell the old lady felt miserable as well. Thus, she hurriedly
brought a cup of warm water. She patted Mrs. Lemmington’s back, and encouraged the latter to sip
slowly on the water to calm down.

When Ian saw his wife in a better state, he looked gratefully at Diana. But when he turned to look at Lina,
the grateful smile on his face gave way to never before seen disgust.
“My daughter was tricked by your brother!”
Lina laughed derisively. “How could that be? I’ve never heard from my brother about a sister-in-law.
What’s more, my brother has high standards for a partner.”
She looked disdainfully at the Lemmingtons’ family portrait hanging on the wall. “Look at that huge
birthmark on your daughter’s face!”
Tutting, she sneered, “She’s terribly ugly! I’m sure my brother would never fancy her!”
Ian choked on Lina’s rude comments, and struggled to catch his breath. He was so angry that he
grabbed the chair next to him, the veins on his arm popping.
He yelled at Lina, “None of you Jennings are decent folk! Take your oranges and get out of my house!
My family will never accept anything from you!”
Lina was furious to hear the professor scold her.
No one dared to treat her this way, especially not recently!
This damned old man!
If Julian weren’t around, she would have taught them a harsh lesson!
Yet Julian was in fact around, and she didn’t dare behave so arrogantly before him. All she could do was
grit her teeth and suppress her anger.
Still, she remembered what her brother had told her. “My brother said that someone in your family loves
oranges, and that I must deliver these to you.”
With that, Lina glared at the old professors and stomped on the oranges.
A wicked grin flashed across her face as she said,” Whatever it is, I’ve delivered these oranges to you. In
the future, don’t even think about letting your ugly daughter smear my brother’s reputation!”
She waved her fists at them, threatening, “If I hear it, I’ll make you two wish you were dead!”
“Lina Jennings!” Julian roared. He glared at her, wishing he could rip her to shreds.
Lina started trembling with fear and fled the scene immediately, leaving the pile of smashed oranges on
the floor.
Seeing the mushed pulp and broken orange skins on the floor…
How was this a gift?!
Lina was clearly here to disgust and insult them!
Noel hurriedly reappeared to clean up the mess. Glancing in the direction that Lina left, he asked, “Mr.
Fulcher, shall we send someone to give her a stern warning?”
“No need,” Julian said. “Just find someone to fix Professor Lemmington’s door, and leave two of our
bodyguards outside their villa.”
Ian’s tense face relaxed the moment he heard that Julian was helping him. He kept insisting on paying
for the door, and urging Julian to tell him the repair cost.
This young man treated him so well. He didn’t want Julian to go to such extent for him.
“And the bodyguards…” Ian exchanged glances with his wife, and waved his hands. “We don’t need
them.” Ian sighed. “We’re advanced in years, and have one foot in the grave. We don’t have a lot of time
left. Perhaps it’s a good thing if the Jennings family come looking for trouble with us.”
