    Richard red at him. “Family matters shouldn’t be aired out. If you dare to call the police, don’t me me for disowning you as my son!”


    Cyrus, breathing heavily with anger, pointed at rk and said, “Dad, how can you be so sed? Damon is your son, but is rk not your grandson? An


    Richard retorted, “Don’t forget it was Damon who helped you when yourpany was on the brink of bankruptcy several times!”


    “I’m his brother. That’s what he should do!” Cyrus argued, his entitlement evident.


    The argument between Richard and Cyrus grew more heated, while rk, lying in bed with a cast, stared nkly out the window, lost in thought.
