Chapter 69 Unworthy

Ren was delighted when he saw Darcy raise the toast. He knew Darcy had no intention to do so but she would comply if Agnes ordered her

1.

His plan of flattering Agnes worked perfectly.

If he could manage the narrow-sighted stupid woman, she would then send her daughter to his bed.

He poured a glass of wine for his father but then he realized his father was petrified.

“Father, Darcy is raising a toast to you, what are you thinking?”

“Huh?”

Jack recovered his composure and saw the glass Ren gave him. The glass of wine was like a burning piece of coal and he immediately let go of it.

Crank!

The glass fell and shattered on the floor.

Agnes was shocked. She thought Jack was unhappy with her daughter’s actions, so she shouted, “Darcy, what are you doing? I

asked you to toast to Mr. Joestar and look what you made him do. Go get another glass for Mr. Joestar!”

Jack was terrified. He knew Agnes had misunderstood him.

“No, no! NO! Stop, don’t offer any toast!”

The more he declined, the angrier Agnes was. She pushed Darcy and said, “Hurry up!”

Darcy sulked as she poured another glass of wine. She gave it to Jack and said, “Mr. Joestar, cheers to you. Please don’t mind me as I

don’t drink a lot.”

Knowing that Darcy was not a drinker and was forced to have

with himself, Jack froze. He dared not clink glasses with Darcy.

He noticed Agnes wanted to urge her daughter again, so he quickly said, “Mrs. Quint, can you stop her from doing this? I’m not worthy enough to accept it.”

Not worthy enough to accept it?

The phrase sounded familiar.

The lot of them turned to Kaze because it was he who said the same thing earlier.

They thought Kaze was simply voicing his grievance and Agnes even scolded him, but it turned out that Jack’s response was exactly like

his.

“Mr. Joestar, are you looking down on us? Do you think my daughter

is unfit for your son?”

Agnes’ expression turned stiff.

She knew it was difficult to get the attention of a first-tier family with her background and status. Her daughter married the idiot, so it was

normal for Mr. Joestar to look down on them.

She assumed Jack refused to clink glasses because of this particular

reason.

However, it sounded differently in Jack’s ears.

He assumed Agnes was angry and was talking sarcastically.

“Mrs. Quint, I dared not look down on your family. It’s not that Ms.

Quito un vi my son, les die ouer may arvanu.

Jack’s words made Agnes panic.

As a man from a first-tier family, it was understandable that Ja not want to be frank and his rejection of the toast already stat

stance.

Yet Agnes insisted and made things awkwardly frank. It must have angered Jack.

She immediately apologized, “I am so sorry, Mr. Joestar! I didn’t mean it! I’m so sorry!”

Jack was mortified when Agnes bowed and apologized.

He could not handle the pressure on his shoulder anymore.

Thump!

He got down on his knees and said with a trembling voice, “Mrs. Quint, please spare me! I really don’t know what happened yesterday!”

His sudden kneel shocked everyone except for Kaze.

“Father, why are you kneeling to this woman? A stupid woman like her

doesn’t deserve this!”

Ren got agitated and revealed his true colors.

He could not accept his father kneeling before a woman whom he looked down upon.

“Ren, you…”

Agnes stared at Ren blankly.

He was all buttering her up a while ago but now he called her a stupid Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

woman.

“What are you looking at? I’m referring to you, you stupid woman!”

at Agnes with

Ren contempt.

Kaze’s expression turned grim. He said coldly, “Ren Joestar, how dare

you speak to my mother-in-law this way? Do you want to die?”
