    "Are you bewitched by her? How dare you question me?" Jason was furious. He tapped his fingers on the table and questioned Byron. "Will is my biological grandson. Why do I harm him?"


    "For Neville." Byron''s voice was extremely cold. "You''ve put in a lot of efforts to pave the way for your beloved illegitimate. son. Am I right?"


    Jason''s face turned cold. "What nonsense are you talking about? How can Neville be my illegitimate son?"


    Byron''s thin lips curled up coldly as he threw the document bag in his hand in front of Jason.


    After reading the document, Jason''s expression changed drastically. Heid his elbows on the table, and his body movement became visibly tense..


    Silence filled the study.


    After a long while, Jason let out a breath. "The paternity test was done a few years ago. You only reveal it now. You''re very patient.


    "You''re ttering me." Byron''s thin lips curled up slightly. T''m not as good as you who endured humiliation all these years in order to help your illegitimate son take over the heir position sessfully."


    Jason''s expression did not change at all, even when he was being mocked by Byron. "I can give my position to whoever I want Who are you to interfere with? Since the beginning of times, the inheritance of wealthy families has only gone to the winner. It''s nothing to do with blood ties"


    It did not matter whether they were father or son.


    Or brothers.


    Blood ties were not as important as benefits.


    Jason raised his head and looked at Byron with a sharp gaze. "You won this time. Next time, you might not be that lucky."


    "Is that so?" Byron lowered his eyes and sneered. He said ambiguously, "Will there be a next time?"


    "What do you mean?" Jason sat up straight. He heard the other meaning in Byron''s words and immediately questioned him, "What did you do to Neville?"


    "Do you


    still have time to worry about Neville?"


    With that, Byron slowly turned around.


    Alexis, who was standing at the door with her mouth covered with her hand, entered Jason''s line of sight.


    Upon seeing her, Jason''s calmness quickly dissipated. He stood up immediately. "Alexis, li


    to me..."


    "Jason Mcdaniel, you''re a fucking bastard!" Alexis rushed forward and pped Jason in his face. She broke down and cried, "You had me raised your illegitimate son for more than 20 years! While my biological son was suffering somewhere, your bastard illegitimate son enjoyed the best care by my side! How dare you! How dare you!"


    And because of that illegitimate child, she treated her biological son coldly again and again. She even scolded him fiercely


    Every time Neville put up a disappointed and sad expression, she could not help but me Byron!

    -


    She was giving all of hers to her husband''s illegitimate son!


    The woman who had been betrayed by her husband exploded with unprecedented strength. Jason could not pull her away. His face and neck stated to bleed from her scratches, and a few buttons on his coat had been tugged away. He was in a very terrible state.


    "Enough! Are you done?" Jason grimaced in pain, but he did not dare to retaliate. He was extremely aggrieved.


    "It''s not enough!" Alexis'' eyes were bloodshot. She gritted her teeth as if she wanted to chew him alive. "Hear me clearly, Jason! I''m not done with you!"


    Because of his illegitimate son, she and her biological son had been estranged since the beginning. They had yet to reconcile.


    What had she done in the past?


    Byron walked out of the study at some point.


    The Mcdaniel family had family rules that prevented Jason from harming his wife. He was not worried that Jason would dare to do anything to Alexis Unless he wanted to be kicked out of the house by his grandfather.


    Suddenly, Byron stopped and threw a sharp nce at the corner of the wall "Come out."


    A small furry head stuck out from the wall and blinked his big puppy eyes. "It''s me!"


    Byron''s expression softened. "Why aren''t you asleep yet?"


    Theo shook his head and nced at the door of the study. Themotion in the room was so loud that it could not be heard clearly.


    He had eavesdropped on the conversation with Alexis.


    Only


    then did he realize that Byron had not had an easy life all these years.


    The things that Will had experienced now were everything that he had experienced in the past.


    All of this was because of Jason''s selfish motives.


    It was...


    It was very saddening.


    Theo walked toward Byron. He stretched out his chubby hand and tugged Byron''s clothes.


    Byron raised his eyebrows. "What''s wrong?"


    Theo decided to treat Byron better in the future. He raised his chest and said generously, "III give you my lollipop" Looking at his determined yet reluctant expression, Byron smiled from his heart. "Do you still have lollipops?" "Of course!" Theo patted his little school bag carefreely. "It''s full of candies!"


    Byron squinted his eyes slightly and took the small bag from Theo''s back. He said lightly, "Til confiscate all of them."


    Theo was shocked.


    T


    Byron had tricked him on purposel


    He would not treat that bad guy well anymore!


    Theo turned his little body around angrily.


    10 points was deducted!'' He gave Byron a big cross in his heart.


    "Byron."


    At the same moment, Alexis walked out of the study with teary eyes. She looked at Byron hesitantly. "Can I talk to you for a moment?"


    Byron nodded lightly and said to Theo, "If you still don''t want to sleep, go to the living room and wait for me.


    "Okay," Theo agreed reluctantly and ran down the stairs.


    Alexis and Byron walked to the vacant balcony. Alexis rernaited alent for a long time before saying, "In the past...I''ve let you down


    Alexis held back his tears and looked at Byron with guilt and regret. She hated herself.


    Her husband was in the wrong, but so was she


    If she had treated Byron with the slightest gentleness and patience when he had returned to the Mcdaniel family, she would not have been so regretful now


    Or rather, she would have regretted it a long time ago,


    However, she was especially clear-headed about that now.


    Byron crossed his arms. His sculpted face was calm and emotionless. His expression did not change with Alexis'' apology. Alexis did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, she felt even more guilty.


    "ver knew that your father had done so much behind my back. He treated you like that because of his illegitimate child He even abandoned Will Alexis wiped her eyes. "In the past, I treated you badly because of his illegitimate child... I''ve never cared for your feelings" "Byron, I''m sorry that I didn''t act like a responsible mother in the past. Can... can you give me another chance to make it up to you?"Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Byron squinted his eyes slightly. "There''s no need. Just treat me the same. You don''t need to feel burdened and guilty."


    swas unaware of Jason''s actions. She was in fact one of the victims.


    Alexis was


    Therefore, Byron


    would never vent his anger on her, let alone resent her.


    But that was all
