Chapter 366 

Initially, he thought that one of the residents in the building had an accident, but he didn’t expect that the person he would see was Sonia. He couldn’t be bothered to ask who Douglas was, and neither was he curious as to why he was addressing her as his aunt. He immediately rushed in to check Sonia’s condition, and he realized things were bad after taking a look at her.

Could it be Toby Fuller? But Ive not heard that he‘s an uncle, he thought.

When Douglas heard Charles criticizing his own uncle, he pouted his lips. “My uncle is Zane Coleman!”

In the end, he sighed in defeat. “Forget it. What can I possibly do to a little guy like you? Alright, Little Doug. Tell me how my darling got hurt,”
