<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jonathan stood with his arms crossed over his chest, looking extremely calm.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Meanwhile, Felix was utterly bewildered. Why is Great–grandpa siding with Jon?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">His heart swelled with increasing jealousy.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda trailed after Cecilia. At first nce, she thought her son had been bullied.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Felix, did Jonathan bully you again?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She pushed aside Cecilia and rushed in.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia was somewhat speechless. What did she mean by that?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Had she even figured out what had happened?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Only then did Niel and George realize that the mothers of both children had arrived.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“How did you all get here?” Niel asked first.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda hesitated, unable to respond that she had been following Cecilia.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia didn’t respond either. Instead, she asked, “Grandpa, Old Mr. Sinir, what exactly happened here?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Only then did George tell Cecilia about Felix’sint. He also mentioned, “The other children imed that they avoid him because he likes to hit them.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing this, Miranda was instantly displeased.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Cecilia, you must be the one who told the children from the other families not to y with Felix. You seem to be trying to iste our Felix.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After hearing that, Cecilia couldn’t help but scoff with a hint of mockery.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“If that’s true, I’m rather powerful, aren’t I? After all, Felix is the great–grandson of the Rainsworth family. Who will dare to ostracize him?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">George immediately defended Cecilia, saying, “Ceci and Jon have always been nice. The problem lies with you. You just don’t know how to guide your child.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After speaking, he turned to Niel and said, “Old Mr. Rainsworth, your granddaughter–inw was scheming to snatch the Sinir family’s business using underhanded tactics just a few days ago. You should think about this carefully.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">At first, the two elders merely argued over their children, causing no real harm. However, when George lodged thatint, Niel instantly lost his temper.</font></font>This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Miranda, have you forgotten the rules of the Sinir and Rainsworth families?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Despite being in business, the Sinirs and Rainsworths had nopetition between them. Moreover, they had a good rtionship and had long ago agreed to stick to their ownnes in their respective industries and ensure they never overstepped their boundaries.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon being used by George, Miranda was at a loss for words. She lowered her head and muttered, “Grandpa, this might be a misunderstanding.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Let’s just treat this as a misunderstanding, but don’t misconstrue my well–behaved great–grandson anymore. If you cause any more trouble about today’s incident, we’ll have a serious problem!” George coldly scolded.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda no longer dared to speak recklessly.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Startled, Felix also dared not lodge anotherint.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He hadn’t expected that George was behind Jonathan’s back.</font></font>
“Aren’t you supposed to be at work right now? Don’t meddle too much in the children’s affairs,” Niel intervened.
Only after soothing her son did Miranda leave.
Cecilia, on the other hand, was in no rush to leave.
She pulled Jonathan aside and asked him privately, “Jon, you didn’t iste Felix, did you?”
Although Felix was at fault, he was merely a pawn manipted by adults. After all, he was only a four–year- old kid.
“Of course not. I just didn’t want to be friends with him,” said Jonathan.
“That’s good. He has received his punishment now. Let’s not treat him the way he treated others.”
“All right.”
Jonathan nodded emphatically.
After settling the matter, Vivian also hurried over. “Oh my, my dear Grandpa, why are you getting into arguments at your age? You had me worried sick!”
Vivian genuinely regarded George as her own grandfather.
George felt somewhat wronged. “Isn’t it all because of you and that brat, Zachary?”
“Why are you ming us?” Vivian was somewhat baffled. Why was he ming his descendants when he was the one getting into a fight?
“If you had given me a great–grandchild sooner, would I have had to bieker with that old geezer?”
