Liam Valerius stared at Damien Valerius in despair. "You're a monster... Damien Valerius, you're a monster!"
Mr. Valerius and a few other elders tried to slip away unnoticed while Damien Valerius's attention was on Liam. But they had barely taken a few steps before Sean Carter's men blocked their path.
The men instantly deflated. "Damien... Look, we..."
Mr. Valerius looked at Damien Valerius timidly. "What's left is a private matter for your family. It's not our place as outsiders to get involved..."
"Outsiders?" Damien Valerius's piercing, hawk-like gaze swept over to Mr. Valerius. "So now you consider yourself an outsider, Uncle?"
Mr. Valerius's expression froze. Both Damien's gaze and his tone sent a chill down his spine. "Well..." He glanced at Liam and said weakly, "Liam already said it was all his idea. I was forced into it. But I've realized my mistake. I'll definitely learn from this painful experience."
