William Cole laughed, looking calmly at the matriarch of the Dawn family.
"First, Ruth and I have already signed a divorce agreement, I have no association with the Dawn Sect. Whether or not I pay respects to you in Capital City is my business."
"Second, you accuse me of disregarding the law, perhaps forgetting that there is a notion within the law called self-defense! Fernando Bauer beat me to the point of breaking my limbs, my retaliation was merely self-defense!"
"Third, Rose Dawn had my sister attacked. The poor girl was completely innocent but was falsely accused of being a vixen. Given another chance, I would hit Rose, and I would hit her hard!"
"Fourth, Eloise Torres insulted me repeatedly, age does not excuse disrespect and audacity. She deserved to get hit; do people like her even deserve to be called elders?"
"Fifth, what era are we living in? I need to report to you my commercial ventures outside home? To say I am at fault for this is nonsensical!"
