Sebastian was riveted by the commotion.

Medal?

He had never seen something like that.

Nevertheless, he knew that a token like that was significant to a family with a military background.

Medals like that were allegedly only presented to those who managed to accomplish magnificent feats. In addition, the possession of such medals would elevate the family’s standing.

They might as well be considered as distinguished members of royalty.

Alas, the Jadesons’ second son may have ruined it all for them.

Sebastian also could not fathom Devin’s uncle’s choices. “But why did he do that? A medal is symbolic of your family’s esteemed prestige. Were he and your grandfather at odds?”

Instead of outrightly berating his uncle, Sebastian chose to pose his questions from a neutral standpoint.

Maybe it was because of his own upbringing.

After all, he himself had gone against Frederick’s wishes many a time in his youth.

Devin nodded in response to his question. “I think he wasn’t fond of having his life set out for him. As the family’s heir, from a military background at that, there were many matters that were forced upon him. For instance, his marriage and his job.”

“If that was the case, that I think his rebellion wasn’t unorthodox. Although, I have to agree that he shouldn’t have destroyed your family’s medal.”

“Yeah. That’s precisely why my grandpa was fuming mad. According to what I heard, the state was so displeased that they issued my grandpa a harsh warning and recorded the incident as a major offense. My grandpa was so incensed that he didn’t even bother to take a look at him when my uncle passed on.”
