Sean and Tatiana didn't dare delay and hurried to the hospital.

Sean held Tatiana's hand as they arrived at the ward. At the door, they could hear Simon, theunrepentant bastard, shouting inside, mixed with Sinead's sobbing.

"Dad! Mom! I'm in this state today all because of Sean, that double-cross dickhead! He's your sonand my own brother, but did you see what he did in court?

"He's been working for Jasper and Alyssa, acting as their pawn! And it's his own brother he'sruining! I'm going to be doomed because of him!"

Simon was in a rage, swearing profusely. No one could imagine that the one speaking behind theclosed door was none other than Simon Lynch, the lawyer who once enjoyed unparalleled prestigein Solana City.

Sean's anger flared up. His sharp jawline tensed, and he clenched his fists so hard that the crackingwas audible.

Tatiana heard everything clearly as well. She squeezed his hand tightly and stared into his reddenedeyes. She subtly shook her head, indicating that he should calm down.

"Dad! You've worked like a dog for the Taylor family for most of your life, and now they're startingto treat your precious son like a pawn! They used that lovechild from their family to seduce Sean sothat they could manipulate him and drive a wedge between us!"

Simon's voice was piercing. "After you retired, I worked so hard to restore our family's reputationover the years... and now everything has been ruined by Jasper and Alyssa! Even now, that idiotSean still can't see the situation clearly.

"He shamelessly sticks with the Taylor family. That bitch is just playing with him! When she's drainedhim of his worth, she'll kick him away! Does he not know about equal partners? How could hepossibly be worthy of Winston's daughter?”

Every word was like a dagger to Tatiana's heart. The pain tore her apart, making her bow her head inself-loathing.

She was the conflict that would forever exist between Sean and his family.

She really had messed up his once-peaceful life. At this thought, she blamed herself for beinguseless.

"You bastard who speaks rubbish!" Sean's eyes were ablaze with rage. His patience finally wore thinas he burst through the door.

Although they were siblings, Simon had always been jealous of Sean's intelligence and talents sincechildhood, constantly belittling and mocking him.

Whatever Sean said, Simon always refuted it. Whatever Sean wanted to do, Simon always opposedhim, always mocking and ridiculing him. And he did it all under the guise of being a brother. Hethought he was acting in Sean's best interests, but in reality, he was bullying him

For so many years, Sean had endured it for the sake of family ties and to avoid worrying his parents.But now, he dared insult the woman he loved. If he continued to endure, what kind of man wouldhe be?

"Sean! Don't..." Tatiana's heart skipped a beat. She wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

The door opened abruptly with a heavy thud, startling the Lynches.

It was like a wake-up call for them, curing Simon's headaches from the concussion and silencingSinead's crying.

"Simon! Shut your filthy mouth!”

Sean stared at Simon with intense hatred. Though Simon's head wrapped in bandages lookedcomical, Sean showed no trace of amusement in his eyes, only raging fury. "If you dare to sayanother word about Taty, you won't just have a concussion! I'll make sure of it!"

"D-Did I say something wrong?" Simon's lips twitched. Trembling with fear, he subconsciouslysought his father's help with his eyes.
