She forced a smile and took hold of George\u2019s arm. \u201cYou must be tired from the trip and in a bad mood. Come on, I\u2019ll take you home to rest.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She knew his temper better than anyone. He had come brimming with anger, and it wouldn\u2019t be easy for father and son to have a proper conversation. Better to leave now than force a tense meal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But George\u2019s gaze never left Nick. The whole family had acknowledged him, yet Nick sat there, immovable, like some stoic statue.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All Nick had was some injury, and yet he acted like the master of the universe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>George hadn\u2019t come to be disliked; he had come specifically to see Nick. But instead of gratitude, he was met with cold arrogance. The fury building in his chest could no longer be contained.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With a sudden jerk, he yanked his arm from Arista\u2019s grasp, stepped forward, and knocked Nick\u2019s bowl and spoon to the floor with a crash.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s this? You\u2019re injured so badly you can\u2019t even greet me? All that etiquette I taught you gone down the drain\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The words hit like a boulder smashing through a frozen lake.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, Nick responded.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDad!\u201d Khloe gasped, instinctively moving to shield him. She positioned herself between Nick and George. He\u2019s still recovering\u2026 please, don\u2019t lose your temper.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>11\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Loretta and Arista leapt forward as well, ready to intervene. But George\u2019s anger was unstoppable, like a storm no one could block.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Leon slammed his cane down hard. \u201cGeorge! You\u2019ve gone too far!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nick slowly lifted his head, meeting his father\u2019s fiery glare with a calm, unwavering gaze. There was no fear, no anger-only an abyss of exhaustion deep in his eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m ill-mannered. Because all my life, I\u2019ve been the child you never approved of. So yes, I\u2019m ill-mannered. Isn\u2019t that only natural?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>No matter what he did, he would never be the son George wanted. He had accepted that truth long ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t expect anything-only that he wouldn\u2019t be trapped forever under the shadow of that childhood storm. Over the years, Nick had worked hard to overcome the tension with his father, striving to be a passable son.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But in his heart, if asked, he could admit he despised George just as much as George seemed to despise him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Every word he spoke was clear, deliberate, and calm-far more powerful than any shouting. It wasn\u2019t rebellion -it was accusation. Twenty years of buried disappointment, fused into his bones, now sliced through the fake veneer of peace between father and son like a sharp blade.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>George froze for a few seconds.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUngrateful wretch!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 412\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rage erupted like a storm from deep within. His face darkened, and with a swing of his arm, he slapped toward Nick\u2019s face.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nick didn\u2019t flinch. His gaze stayed fixed on his father.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDad-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But before anyone could react, Khloe instinctively leapt in front of him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>George\u2019s strike came down with full force-but instead of hitting Nick, it landed on Khloe\u2019s face and neck.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She staggered from the impact, her body swaying before collapsing to the ground.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The room froze.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKhloe!\u201d Loretta shrieked, horror etched across her face.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Arista clutched her mouth, unable to believe George had struck Khloe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nick\u2019s pupils constricted in an instant.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He saw her sprawled at his feet, clutching her face, and his vision turned red with fury.
