Chapter 2054
"That's enough, Stefan!" Renee pushed Stefan away. She could no longer tolerate him.
He had grown harsher and colder than when Renee first knew him. He even used such words to harm her closest family. He was inconsiderate toward her feelings, and it broke her heart.
Speechless, Quinton stood where he was in a trance. He wasn't as fierce as he had been before. Instead, he seemed sullen and thoughtful.
"Let's go, Quinton." Renee felt she could no longer stay there, and grabbed Quinton's hand to leave with him.
"Okay," Quinton answered softly. He acted like a mental patient who had suddenly regained his wits. His obedience gave rise to sympathy from others.
"Grandpa, we're leaving. Quinton was rude today because he was worried about me. I hope you won't take it to heart. We'll visit you another day," Renee said, bowing deeply to Timothy to express her apology.
Nevertheless, Quinton was her family. She would never distance him or cut him off. Hence, she would bear the consequences and criticisms on his behalf.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Don't be a stranger, Ren," Timothy said.
He wasn't angry at all and looked at Quinton in agitation, his eyes teary.
Sighing, he said, "Yes, you look just like Maurice. Your countenance and character resemble him. You're bold and straightforward..
After praising Quinton, Timothy glared at Stefan and spat disdainfully, "Unline a certain someone. He's awful and is always disappointing. He drives me mad all the time!"
"My head hurts. I'm going back to sleep. Stefan turned away coldly, and went upstairs.
"Look at him! What rudeness!" Timothy pointed at Stefan's back, raising the ruler angrily. "I should've beat him up harder and ruined his hand! He wouldn't be this stubborn otherwise."
"Stop that, Grandpa. If you ruin his hand, I'll feel very guilty," Renee said.
She was worried Timothy might punish Stefan physically again later, so she tried her best to dissuade him.
"Violence can't solve anything. He's your grandson. You shouldn't hit him that way. You need to keep the Hunt family line. If anything goes wrong, you'll regret it and it'll be too late."
"I won't be worried about it. I've got Adie and Abby. I can't discipline that bastard. I'll let him fend for himself," Timothy said angrily.
He sounded cruel, as if he couldn't care less about his grandson who had truly let him down.
"Old man, stop flattering yourself. Adie and Abby belong to the Everhearts. They have nothing to do with your family,' Quinton said to Timothy seriously. "Plus, you need to know the kids take the Everheart surname. Your grandson merely provided the sperms. We can ignore that."
"Uh..."
