rence reacted quickly and rushed forward to pull Steven, whose eyes were red from anger, off


    Hunter. Then he hugged Steven tightly from the back.


    “Steve! Have you gone mad?! How could you punch your brother?!”


    “Mad… He’s fucking crazy!”


    Hunter got up from the ground, clutching his face. “He’s bing a monster who doesn’t even


    recognize his own family because of that Thompson girl!”


    “The one who’s bing a monster isn’t me… It’s you, Hunter!”


    Steven roared.


    “That’s enough! Both of you, shut up!” Neil held his wife and roared at his two sons.


    Mrs. Lovett had never seen her children like this before, so she was very anxious.


    “Steve, I already heard about Hunter helping the Salvadors. Don’t me him. He’s just doing his job as


    theirwyer.” rence was stuck ying the mediator. He was afraid they would start fighting if he took


    anyone’s side, even just a little.


    “I’m staying out tonight.”


    Steven walked out without saying another word, bruises blooming on his face.


    “Steve! Where are you going?!” Mrs. Lovett yelled worriedly.


    “Ha… Where else could he be going? Isn’t he just hurrying back to serve his Ms. Be?!”Property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Hunter had never suffered such humiliation before. Since there were no outsiders around, he felt free


    to say the most hurtful things to Steven. “I don’t think the Thompsons’ darling can sleep well at night


    without our Steve.”


    “You-bastard! I won’t let you insult Ms. Be like that!”


    Steven was so angry that his eyes turned bloodshot. They could also hear the crack of his knuckles as


    he clenched his fists.


    If not for rence, who was holding Steven back, Steven would definitely have punched Hunter again.


    “Hunt! You’re not allowed to disrespect Ms. Be like that!”


    Neil could not bear to listen anymore either and quickly walked up to stand between them, imposing an


    invisible pressure on them.


    Neither of you are allowed to leave this house tonight. Go and stand in my study! rence, bring the


    whip overter. I’ll be disciplining your two ording to the family rules!”


    Hunter and Steven were shocked.


    Helplessly, Steven could onlyply. “Yes, Dad.”


    Mrs. Lovett wanted to talk them down, but her husband was the head of the family, and she had never


    seeded before, so she could only stand aside and sigh.


    “Steven, did you throw the first punch?” Neil asked sternly with furrowed brows.


    “Yes, Dad.”


    “Hurry up and apologize to your brother.”


    Steven’s fists were still clenched tightly, and his blood was still boiling. His anger had not dissipated at


    all. “Dad, I’m willing to e the punishment for what I did earlier. But there is no way I’ll apologi to him,


    even if you ask me to. From now on, if he dares say anythin disrespectful about Ms. Be, I’ll give him


    one punch every time he does it. And I’ll keep doing it until he remembers his lesson!”


    “Steven!” Hunter was about to blow his fuse at his befuddled little brother.


    Neil had never expected his youngest son, who had always been the most well-behaved, to get so


    angry over Be Thompson to the point he raised his hand against his own family. Neil felt a little glum.


    Right then, their housekeeper hurriedly came to report. “Mr. Lovett, Chairman Thompson’s secretary is


    here!”


    The moment they heard Wyatt Thompson had sent someone over, they were shocked. They hurriedly


    set aside their family issues for the moment.


    Quentin walked in with a smile and could tell at a nce that. something was off.


    When he spotted the bruises on the two young men’s faces, realization dawned on him, but he only


    spoke of business. “Mr.


    Lovett, Chairman Thompson would like to invite you and your family to Yara Park to have dinner


    together. We hope you can grace us with your presence. Chairman Thompson has not seen Young


    Master Hunter and Young Master rence in a very long time either. It’s rare for your whole family to


    be back here in Hatchbay, so he wants to invite you over to catch up.”


    “Got it. Thanks for making the trip, Quentin. We’ll definitely be there on time!” Neil smiled politely.


    After seeing Quentin off, the atmosphere once again became ten


    “I’m not going.”


    Hunter refused decisively and clenched his jaw as he turned around. I just got back from a trip


    overseas, and I’m very tired, so I’m heading up to rest first.”


    “You’re not allowed!”


    Neil said angrily, “Who do you think you are to dare to snub Chairman Thompson? Even if your leg is


    broken, you’d better hop on over to the Thompsons’ home!”
