"I will never be your brother. I'm just allowing you to stay here because of my dad's last will!"
Little Jean whimpered Maximillien kept shouting at him. He looked at the servants and guards, hoping one of them would take him away from his Big brother, but nobody cared for him.
"I—I'm sorry, Big brother—"
"I said, don't call me big brother! You damn imbecile!" Maximillien felt he could blow up anytime he was with this kid. He was lucky enough to be allowed to eat and sleep in this duchy palace while he was just an orphan taken by his stupid parents.
Now they were cursed because of this kid. Even his parents were now dead due to mysterious illness.
If not for that damn last will from his dad, the will that ordered him as the Young Duke to take care of his 'little brother,' Jean Eau Saumont, Maximillien would just throw this kid to some random orphanage, probably gave him some money to survive and then forget about him.
