rk’s expression turned sour as he demanded, “Dad, didn’t you hear Grandpa’s warning just now<i>? </i>Or is a brother who abandoned you more important than your own son?”


    Cyrus sighed. “I just want to talk to the doctor about the likelihood of Damon sessfully recovering his memory. And no matter what, he’s still your uncle.”


    “Uncle? He’s not even a part of the Sumners!” an angry voice said from the doorway.


    Cyrus and rk turned their heads.


    Cyrus red at Cindy as she approached. He scolded, “What nonsense are you spouting? Isn’t the family chaotic enough already?”


    Cindy scoffed and sat across from them. “rk, do you remember when I told you that your uncle doesn’t have the right topete with you for the Sumner Group?”


    rk nodded. “Yes. What do you mean by saying he isn’t part of the Sumners?”


    Cyrus was angry. “Don’t listen to your mother’s nonsense. I think she’s been idle for too long and lost her mind. How could I not know whether Damon is my brother?”


    Cindy smirked, her toneced with sarcasm. “You think Damon is your brother? Don’t forget, your parents were abroad for several years. When they returned, they brought Damon with them, iming he was born


    overseas.


    “Did you ever actually see your mother pregnant? Everything they said, you just epted without question.”


    Cyrus paused, then frowned. “If he isn’t part of the Sumners, do you think my parents would have brought


    him back and raised him as their own son, given their personalit


    “Normally, no. But what if Damon’s biological parents saved their lives?” Cindy retorted.


    Seeing how confident Cindy looked, Cyrus began to waver. After all, he had never seen his mother pregnant.


    When Richard and Marie first brought Damon back, there had indeed been some gossip for a while. Later, they personally took Damon for a paternity test, which silenced the rumors.


    At least, no one openly questioned whether Damon was truly a Sumner.


    When Damon went on to start his ownpany–Prospectus Technology–and became a powerful figure in the city, no one dared to bring up his background again.


    “What’s really going on? Exin yourself!” Cyrus demanded.


    Cindy nced at him. “Weren’t you just doubting me earlier? Why believe me now?”


    Anger shed in Cyrus‘ eyes. “Are <i>you </i>going to tell me or not? If not, keep quiet forever!”


    Cindy shrugged. “I overheard your parents arguing once. Apparently, when they were abroad, Damon’s parents saved their lives. Out of the three of them, only Damon survived, so your parents brought him back and raised <b>him </b>as their own son.” All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.

    She sneered. “Who knew they’d actually develop feelings for him and treat him like their real son, even nning to hand over thepany to him? It’s ridiculous!”


    As Cindy finished speaking, the living room fell silent.


    Cyrus was filled with disbelief, yet deep down, he felt she might be right.


    Damon had always been cold and distant, unlike the calcting nature of the rest of the Sumners. He had never been interested in building close rtionships.


    Next to him, rk’s face darkened. The thought that his grandfather would rather give thepany to an outsider than to him was infuriating.
