But Solomon had always been unable to go head-to-head with Avery. After a few exchanges, he found himself on the losing end.

Reluctant to admit defeat, he shifted his focus toward Neera.

“So, this is the recently talked-about head of the Gordon family. I heard there’s even a marriage alliance. Tsk tsk. I must say, Chad really is making a fuss. How did he manage to find such an outsider to become the head of the Gordon family? Are the people of the Gordon family okay with it? Chad seems to be disregarding both the Gordon family and the Cox family. Although you’re the head of the Cox family, Chad has burdened you with such an unwelcome fiancée. You must be quite upset, right? Poor you…”

Not only did he involve himself, but he also besmirched Chad’s name. Neera furrowed her brow, feeling annoyed.

Before she could respond, Shane intervened.

“Mr. Gardner, this is an internal matter for the Gordon family. As an outsider, you’re not privy to the details. It’s best not to make hasty speculations. Neera’s position as the head of the Gordon family has been duly recognized, and no one has the authority to question it. Regarding the marriage with the Cox family, it’s not within your purview to interfere,” Avery said, his tone frigid. “Mr. Gardner, I am engaged to Avery, and our relationship is not open to others’ commentary.”

Despite the pushback, Solomon showed no signs of backing down.

“All right, that’s enough. There’s no need to silence me like this. I couldn’t care less about the Gordon family’s affairs, nor do I want to meddle. I just find it amusing that an outsider, and one who appears rather inexperienced, has been entrusted with the Gordon family. It’s truly perplexing. Chad must either be out of his mind or had been put under a spell. He doesn’t seem concerned if the Gordon family faces difficulties under this young lady’s leadership. I heard she was even attacked a few days ago. Thankfully, it was not a serious incident. Otherwise, the newly appointed head of the Gordon family might have been in jeopardy. That would have provided ample material for Phison’s jests!”
