When the Family 359

Chapter 359 He Had a Rough Childhood

+8 Pearls

Jean pressed her lips together, curiosity quietly blooming in her heart about the relationship between Dalton and Winston.

After a brief hesitation, she typed out a few messages and sent them one after another: “You and my brother… You two look like you’re enemies or something. But you don’t really seem to hate him?”

“Why is that?”

“My brother has a terrible temper. He doesn’t even treat family nicely. But you… you actually think he’s not a bad person?”

She fired off several messages in a row.

This time, Dalton did not reply immediately.

It was like he was weighing his words. Half a minute passed before a response finally came.

Dalton explained: “Your brother had a rough childhood. The way he is now… it’s understandable.”

His childhood? Wait a second…

That one line carried a lot of weight, and Jean needed a moment to fully process it.

So Dalton and Winston might have known each other since they were kids.

They were childhood friends? Their connection went that far back? And then there was that part about Winston’s difficult past… What exactly had he gone through when he was little? It had to be something bad. Bad enough to twist a person’s personality this much.
