He said he didn't care about An Group's property, but now, because of that immoral woman, he might be determined to pursue the An Group!”
Edmund, who was paranoid and insecure, had often been worried about his family. He had always been deeply affected by what people thought about An Group. Hearing what Shelly had just said, he was overcome with anxiety. Frowning, he said, ”If Jonny wants to be an ungrateful bastard, then let him be. I'll no longer care about our father-and-son relationship!”

Whenever she came face-to-face with him, she echoed almost every word he said. It was almost as if she wanted to share his anger and his thoughts so that she could finally have her place in the An family.
