This was the first time Reen actually saw her father after she was old enough to know what was right and wrong, he was a short man about only an inch taller than her mom, Elena. His face was covered with a beard with sunken eyes. He was wearing a tattered long sleeves coat and tie and loose pants.
Reen felt pity for him, she could not helped but looked at her mom with obvious pity in her eyes. Damon, her 20 year old brother stared blankly at his dad while Sophia her older sister, a 18 year old woman stared coldly at him staring daggers at him while tightly clenching her mother's dress.
Hearing her response his initial warm attitude turned into anger.
"You hoar! How dare you lie to me?! I know you still have the inheritance where is it?! You should give it to me. It's rightfully mine in the first place. He was my father not yours." He fiercely grabbed her arm ignoring the children completely.
Elena turned pale. 7 million was actually not that big for a 4 person family like theirs. She had a small earning salary so she usually only uses the saved money on emergencies such as unexpected accidents and similar situations turning it down to for the past 2 years to 6 million.
Though she was once a housewife but knowing they would not survive if she didn't work, she got some part time jobs while taking care of her children.
As Seth's relatives did not care about her after the reading of the will and they didn't care to ask what she was doing as long as their niece and nephew were well they didn't know that she was already working now.
The remaining money was for the succeeding years to come. They practiced frugality on their food and other wants as much as they could. She was actually saving the rest for her children's future in any case something bad happens to her.
Seth suddenly felt pain on his arms. When he looked at it, Sophia had actually bitten him on the arm he used to grip her mother's wrist. This unsuspected action made him let go of Elena's wrist as he was about to punched Sophia on her head, she abruptly let his arm go glaring fiercely at him noticing his ruthless action.
Sophia didn't give him any mercy and bitten him hard until she tasted blood on her mouth. Snapping from his reverie Damon shielded her mother and sisters behind his back as he glared at his father.
As every young boy, Damon had greatly looked up to his father. Despite knowing that he had cheated and abandoned them he still worshiped him thus leading to his dazzled inaction a while ago. But seeing him again act so arrogantly and even hurting his mother and sister, his idolization from then on twisted into hatred,
"You! Ungrateful little wrench! I'm your father god d*mmit!" he angrily pointed at Sophia and Damon seeing their actions and hostility towards him.
Seeing this Elena was filled with panic while Damon was ready to fight him anytime, Sophia only stared coldly at her father spitting the blood on her mouth at him as though his blood was dirty and poisonous.
This action made Seth even angrier he rushed towards her in attempt to give her a good lesson she will never forgot not an ounce of feeling to this daughter of his.
"Help! Help! This man is trying to hurt my sister!" Reen's loud voice filled with fear startled them which also caught the attention of the neighbors.
