Adam Swantz stood there, filled with self-mockery.
Why did he have any expectations of his father?
He should have known better!
In Matthew Swantz's eyes, he was always a useless loser.
Maybe...
Even worse than that.
The more Matthew thought about it, the angrier he became. He pointed at Adam, saying, "Starting today, you're not allowed to use a single penny from this household!"
Sensing that the situation was tense, Derek Swantz stood up from the couch in time, "Dad."
"Derek," Matthew raised his hand, "you don't need to get involved in this."
At this point, if he, as the father, didn't step in to discipline Adam, the consequences would be unimaginable!
He couldn't just stand by and watch Adam ruin everything he had worked so hard for.
Adam chuckled, "Dad, haven't you forgotten? I haven't used any money from home for a long time."
Adam had achieved some success in esports, and hadn't asked for money from home since the age of 18.
But Matthew seemed oblivious to all this.
