You're Out Daddy

Chapter 866 All Strength Is Merely A Deceptive Facade

Magus remained silent for a long time. He should have understood the reasoning that Anthony presented, shouldn't he?

However, over the years, he had been dwelling in complaints and regrets. It seemed that he had long forgotten his original intentions, forgotten that in the survival of the fittest world, one could only protect the ones they cared about by standing tall and far. Otherwise, the outcome would be like his own, used and discarded like a rag by others. He couldn't even protect his own family...

Even a child could understand that principle, yet he had been confused for so many years!

Magus continued with his work, his eyes filled with anger and regret toward himself.

If he could, he would give himself two slaps on the face right then.

After saying all that, Anthony, who was standing nearby, felt a sense of relief in his heart.

Facing topics that even Benjamin and Denise couldn't bring up, he had managed to say it so openly to Magus.

The heavy burden that had been weighing on his heart suddenly became much lighter in that moment.

Looking at him, Anthony spoke up, “Let's forget about these matters and this conversation after today. Don't tell my younger siblings, they don't need to know!”

Magus raised his gaze, scanning Benjamin and Denise who were not far away. Then he whispered, “Why not tell them?”

“This situation can't be changed anymore. The more people who know about it, the more pain there will be. If someone is already bearing the burden, Why make everyone else suffer as well?” Anthony asked.

Magus glanced at him but remained silent, keeping all his thoughts buried deep within his heart.

That night, it was extremely rare for him to have such a lengthy conversation with someone. It had been many years since he had experienced that, let alone set foot in that kind of situation.

“Don't worry, I have no interest in other people's private matters, let alone gossip about them,” Magus said.

Upon hearing that, Anthony nodded and said, “I can tell!”
