Chapter 31
Elowen started to sob, and Dorian couldn’t hold back anymore. He knew he’d messed up. With a
downturned mouth and tears swirling in his eyes, he couldn’t hold it back anymore and burst into tears,
“Mom, grandma, I won’t do it again, I know I was wrong. Mom, you can’t leave me. I can’t be without
you…
Even the usually stone-cold Atticus and Sophia felt scared, they shared a glance with each other, their
little faces turning red with worry, their eyes also starting to redden.
They knew they’d messed up.
Hertha also broke down crying, “Oh, what are we gonna do…”
Thalassa quietly wiped her tears at the side, not just because she was moved by their emotions, but
also because her heart ached. Over the years, her mother, Evelyn, had been helping her take care of
the children, and though she complained often, part of it was genuine.
Thalassa had been busy outside for these years, she also suffered a lot during her work, to say she

Seeing the kids and Evelyn crying their hearts out, everyone in the room seemed to fall apart, even her
usually strong nerves couldn’t hold up and she started to cry
David’s phone was loud, even without the speaker on, the voices from the other end could be heard by
others.
Especially when the family’s voices were heart-wrenching, it was hard not to let Lysander hear.
David could tell that the family was pitiful, his heart softened a bit and he looked at Lysander
questioningly.
But Lysander’s face was gloomy, his eyes cold as ice.
Even so, David held the receiver and tentatively asked, “Mr. Sinclair, do you think we can cut them
some slack?”
Lysanders voice was cold, “If they knew the consequences, they shouldn’t have acted rashly. Everyone
has to pay for their mistakes.”
Just because they were pitiful, they could get away with their actions?
If they had behaved properly, how could they have let four children barge into someone else’s office
and damage private property?
Lysander was never a philanthropist, and he had no obligation to sympathize with the pitiful.
Besides, there’s always something hateful about people who are pitiful.
He was not short of money, but he wanted to teach this family a lesson, otherwise they would never
learn.
Getting Mr. Sinclair’s attitude, David said into the phone, “Alright, crying isn’t going to help. Your kids
just said their dad is Mr. Sinclair from the Sinclair Group, how could you possibly be a single parent?”
-David Intentionally used this to refute them.
Hearing this, Lysander’s eyes got colder, his face darker.
This kid was trying to pass off as his son, what a joke!
This was unforgivable.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHertha was still crying uncontrollably, she kept apologizing. “I’m sorry, the kid thought it was a scam,
that’s why he said that. He was just worried about being cheated, scammers are very brazen nowadays
and they dare to say anything. The kid helped me block many scam calls, what he said was not true.
They really don’t have a dad…”
David paused for a moment, then asked, “So, where’s their dad?”
On the other end of the phone, Hertha was choked up, she didn’t know how to answer, her vision
blurred by tears. She looked to Thalassa, hoping to hear her explanation,
Thalassa looked very anxious and made a jumping gesture.
Hertha caught on to her meaning, she sobbed, filled with sorrow, and said, “The kids are quadruplets,
their father couldn’t handle the pressure of raising four children, so he chose to jump off a cliff. He’s
already dead.
“Dead?” David was somewhat surprised.
Hertha cried and confirmed, “Yes, he’s dead.”
On this end, David with the phone in hand turned to Lysander again, Lysander’s brow furrowed slightly
On the other hand, Thalassa rolled up her sleeve, revealing a section of her arm, and made an
injection gesture on her arm with her other hand. -Hertha bit her lip and said weakly, “I don’t have
money, but I have blood, can I sell my blood to pay off the debt?”
Lysander was silent.
