"That Sophia... I don't know where she gets the nerve to swagger around our house like she's some kind of rich lady! And her son, he ruined all of Dad's orchids that he's been raising for years on his very first day here!"

Huo Junyang's eyes widened. Uncle Bai's orchids were all delicate, with plain white crowns and lotus-shaped tips; the most expensive one could fetch tens of millions at auction. Uncle Bai, usually so carefree, always tended to these precious plants with utmost care, yet some unknown brat had broken a branch…

“Money is a small matter,” Bai Zhijin continued, “The key is that my father has raised these flowers for so many years and has developed an attachment to them. My father was so angry that he hit the child a few times, and then Sophia started making a scene at our house, saying that our family was bullying her because she was divorced with a child, and that... that our family had warped values, looked down on second marriages, and was deliberately targeting her and her child.”

Huo Junyang couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath, "Who the hell is this person! What does Bai Zhibu say?"

At the mention of her brother, Bai Zhijin's tears fell in a steady stream.

“My brother sided with Sophia and her son, and even argued with Dad, telling him not to be so prejudiced about bloodlines… He wants to spend his life with Sophia, and that child is his son!”

"What?"

"He made Dad so angry he's been bedridden for two days..."

Bai Zhijin threw herself into Huo Junyang's arms and cried. Huo Junyang gently patted her back, not knowing how to comfort her.

He was furious just hearing Bai Zhijin relay these words, let alone Uncle Bai!

"So... how is Uncle Bai doing now? Should we take him to my aunt and uncle's hospital for a thorough check-up?"
