"What nonsense is this?!" Grandpa Clemens frowned angrily. "Your engagement to Amelia has already been announced, and the date for the engagement ceremony has been set." "Just cancel it." Micah shrugged. "It's not like I set the date anyway!"

"You..." Grandpa Clemens' face turned pale. "Have you gone crazy? Can't you see the situation clearly? The James Group is entering the domestic market, and your relationship with Nick isn't good. You're facing external and internal threats. If the Lingston s and the Clarks turn to the James Group, it will be quite unfavorable for us. Don't you know that?"

"The Clark family has already allied with the James family," Micah said casually.

"What? Is it already confirmed?" Grandpa Clemens was shocked.

"It's confirmed." Micah nodded. "Ronan is against me, and he's about to marry Arianna. The Clark family naturally chose to join the James family's side. The two families have allied and are preparing to take over the Atlantic coastline." "In that case, you can't dissolve your marriage with Amelia." Grandpa Clemens frowned. "Otherwise "

"I've already dissolved it," Micah delivered another major blow to Grandpa Clemens.

"Micah..." Silas couldn't stop Micah. He had hoped Micah would wait a bit longer before divulging the matter. After all, Grandpa Clemens had just awakened. Yet, Micah had already spilled the beans.

"What did you say?" Grandpa Clemens widened his eyes in astonishment.

"I dissolved it this morning," Micah said calmly. "I won't go into the details with you so as not to upset you..."

"You, you are an unfilial child!"

Grandpa Clemens went mad, picked up the nearby water glass, and threw it at Micah.

Micah swiftly dodged, and the glass smashed on the ground.

Outside, the attendants were startled by the noise.

Rylan and Andrew exchanged a glance, both looking serious.

"You just praised me for being capable, and now you're cursing me for being unfilial," Micah grumbled, displeased.

"You, you intentionally want to drive me crazy?!" Grandpa Clemens snarled.

Grandpa Clemens paled with anger, clutching his chest, which rose and fell rapidly as he struggled to breathe.

"Sir, calm down, calm down," Silas hurriedly comforted him, patting his chest. "You just woke up, and you cannot be stimulated again.

"Quick, give him some oxygen!"

The medical staff immediately gave Grandpa Clemens oxygen.

Soon, he calmed down, his face gradually returning to normal, though his brows remained furrowed.

Silas feared Micah's words might provoke Grandpa Clemens further, so he gently suggested, "Micah, perhaps it's best to take the children home for now. Let's wait until your grandfather's condition stabilizes before returning." "Oh, alright." Micah looked at Grandpa Clemens. "Grandfather, should I leave then?"

"Where are you going? Stand facing the wall as punishment," Grandpa Clemens barked.

Micah didn't resist and obediently stood facing the wall like a child being punished.

Micah knew his grandfather's personality well. If things weren't explained clearly, he would never let Micah leave.

After a while, Grandpa Clemens calmed down and pointed at Micah, angrily demanding, "Turn around and face me!"

Micah obediently turned around and calmly looked at him.

"Tell me honestly, what do you want?" Grandpa Clemens asked with his hand on his chest. "You have received devilish training since you were six years old, never slacking for more than 20 years. Why are you disregarding the overall situation now? What are you thinking?"

"I can't marry a woman I don't love, especially when this woman has ulterior motives. Amelia has a violent temper. Marrying her would jeopardize my career aspirations, hindering future growth. In fact, isn't avoiding such complications a long- term benefit?"

Micah tried to reason with his grandfather.
