Chapter 446:

“Connor, you must stay alert around Neil,” Allyson said. “I’m also his aunt, and we share the same blood. I shouldn’t interfere with your relationship as brothers, but I worry that if you place too much trust in brotherhood, you might end up hurt.

Neil might not have inherited the sharp intelligence of your parents and is considered the least clever among you all, yet he compensates with cruelty and jealousy stronger than any of his siblings. This is why I’ve brought up these past incidents today. I hope you can protect yourself.”

Connor nodded in response. He had long recognized Neil’s true character and was aware of the resentment Neil harbored against him, but he had kept quiet to ensure their grandmother could live her later years in peace. Now that Allyson had openly expressed her concerns, it seemed that Neil’s ambitions were clear to everyone.

Allyson paused, debating whether to continue. After a few false starts, she decided to share more.

“Connor, there’s something I’ve been hesitant to tell you. But now that you’re mature and capable of making your own judgments, I trust you enough to share it.”
