Chapter 977

Bryan felt humiliated upon hearing his father's harsh words.

“Why do you hate my daddy so much, Uncle Bryan?” Gavin questioned as he gazed at his uncle angrily.

The look in his eyes and his aura resembles Benjamin so much. It pisses me off. Wait. I thought this kid didn't speak much in the past.

Bryan's expression darkened as he reprimanded, “Is this how you're supposed to speak to your elder?”

“Is he wrong to do so?” Darius defended the boy and gave his son a dirty look.

“Dad!” Bryan's expression was grim.

“You should be grateful that he's willing to call you uncle, considering you don't act like an adult at all. If there's nothing else, go back home! I don't want you to keep annoying me here!” The old man had no qualms about chasing his son away.

Bryan couldn't believe he had waited for the dinner to end for nothing. Hence, unwilling to stick around any longer, he left. “Fine! I'll go back now!”

“How disrespectful!” Darius chided with exasperation.

William served the old man a glass of warm water. “Calm down, Old Mr. Graham!”


Darius' anger was appeased after he took a sip of water.

“Why does he hate Mr. Graham so much, Grandpa?” Zachary asked, frowning with displeasure.

The old man was a little shocked to see the boy acting in that manner. He cares quite a lot about his father though he doesn't show it.

Darius then glanced at the other children, elated when he saw that they were similarly unhappy about the way their uncle treated their father.

Embracing the sextuplets, he patted their heads. “There's no need for any of you to concern yourself with adult matters. It's my fault for not raising your uncle properly and letting him think he can bully your father.”

The children consoled their grandfather when they noticed how guilty he felt. “It's not your fault, Grandpa. We won't blame you for what happened.”

Touched, Darius uttered, “Thank you, Sweethearts.”

As Arissa followed Benjamin back into the bedroom, her line of sight occasionally landed on his face.

Sensing her glances, he stared at her, his eyes as deep as an abyss. “I know you have questions. Ask away.”

“No, I don't!” She hastily lowered her eyes to avert his gaze.

As he pulled her toward the bed, she resisted because she felt quite uncomfortable acting intimately in the manor, for fear that someone would see them.

Benjamin held her even tighter as he rested his chin on her head. “I've always known they hate me.”

Confounded, Arissa asked, “They?”

Does he have another sibling except for Bryan?

“My second elder brother's family,” he replied indifferently with a scoff.

No wonder I don't see his siblings around here. Turns out their relationship is bad. I get it now.
