Michael Linton’s gaze was too sharp; Fabian Hols really wanted to shake his head and say no, but under that sharp gaze, he instantly lost the courage, although he didn’t directly nod and say yes either.
"This is an issue between us adults, so don’t involve the kids." Since he had already decided to protect his innocent and pitiful little son, he was determined to do so and could not fear authority.
"He’s not a child anymore, if I rember correctly, he should be in his twenties by now, he’s already an adult." Michael Linton didn’t give up on uncovering the truth just because of Fabian Hols’ protective stance, he wasn’t trying to go against anyone, he just wanted to figure out what had really happened.
However, Fabian Hols didn’t grasp his real intention. Seeing him persistently hounding Theodore Hols, Fabian Hols thought he was just trying to give Theodore a hard ti, and a surge of anger suddenly rose in his heart.
"Even if he’s in his twenties, in front of us he’s still a child. Don’t keep hounding him; if you have an issue, just deal with directly. I won’t say no to anything." At this mont, he had a protective posture and his attitude seed very firm.
"When Easton was younger and got into fights, I never saw you protect him like this. Is this the difference between children of a legitimate wife and those of a mistress?" Seeing Fabian Hols protect Theodore so tightly, Michael Linton couldn’t help but feel indignant on behalf of Easton Hols, completely veering off the main topic of their conversation.
These words plunged Fabian Hols into silence; for a long ti he didn’t make a sound, as if he had suddenly lost the ability to speak.
"If you all truly can’t get along, why not separate, that way your whole family would feel at ease." Seeing Fabian Hols remain silent for so long, Michael Linton couldn’t hold it in any longer and suggested as an observer.
Hearing Michael Linton speak again, Fabian Hols slowly lifted his hanging head and looked at him standing not far away, his eyes full of surprise, doubt, and inquiry.
These years he was tired, not physically, but emotionally exhausted; his heart was truly so worn out.
Fabian Hols let out a soft sigh; over the years, Alia Linton had pushed him to the brink of wanting to die, and if it weren’t for the concerns in his heart, he might have already ceased to be in this world.
"Since things have been said to this extent, I’ll be honest with you, I’ve actually wanted to divorce your sister for a long ti, it’s just your sister has always refused." In front of a shrewd person, he didn’t hide anymore. He could see that this brother-in-law wasn’t trying to trick him but was sincerely advising him.
Michael Linton knew very well what kind of person Alia Linton was, being her younger brother. Precisely because of this understanding, he hoped she would divorce Fabian Hols.
That way Fabian would be free, she would be free, and their children would also be free.
"I’ll talk to her when she wakes up tomorrow."
Michael Linton had already made up his mind, deciding to help his sister Alia Linton walk away from this tornting relationship, he didn’t want to see her remain stubbornly attached.
If things continued like this, not only would she destroy herself, but she could also end up leaving a lifelong regret.
Rather than regret later, it’s better to try to change now, change her mindset, change her current living state, change her mode of interacting with family.
