Ryan was furious when he heard Luke brazenly call the old master's name. "How dare you! Do you think you can just say my grandfather's name so casually?!"
"Aren't names meant to be called?" Luke scratched his head. "Or does everyone in the Carter Family have untouchable names? What kind of logic is that?"
Ryan was livid. "You—"
"Enough, Ryan." Old Mr. Carter didn't seem the least bit upset. "Let me introduce you. This is Logan's younger brother, Luke Reid."

Old Mr. Carter, his expression unreadable, gave a pleasant smile. "Selina, have a seat. Guests are always welcome. The reason we didn't send you an invitation was—"
"Because Ryan owes me. Because the Carter Family knows they're in the wrong. How could they possibly have the audacity to invite me to an engagement party for him and his mistress?"
