Bound to My Billionaire Ex novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7 The Sterling Family

Burton had three sons and one daughter. His eldest son, William, was the head of a military department and usually lived in the military residence. William's two daughters, the older one named Adeline and the younger one named Bridget, were both married, so they were not present today.

Burton's second son, Frank, was a high-ranking official of the country, who often appeared on TV. He married Tanya and Tanya gave birth to Jason, the only son of the Sterling family. They also had a daughter named Ericka who had joined the army.

It was said that Frank had nearly cut the ties with Burton in order to marry Tanya who was from an inferior family background. Rumored had it that after Frank and Tanya got married, they had not returned to the Sterling's for five years, because Burton and his wife, who was still alive at that time, did not allow Tanya to enter the Sterling's.

They hadn't made peace until the birth of Jason and Burton and his original wife personally went to visit Tanya in the hospital. After that, Tanya's position improved a lot in the Sterling family. Frank was henpecked and usually enjoyed the world of two with his wife, so he was also absent today.

Burton's third son, Nicolas, was a businessman who had married Heidi, the second daughter of the Tupart family. Heidi was also a well-known figure in the Capital City. She did not have any children, so she raised Nicolas's illegitimate daughters and educated them.

Now all the girls of the Sterling family were the children of Nicolas and his mistresses, so they were about the same age. It was a pity that Nicolas did not have a son even if he tried so hard. Maybe this was the reason why Heidi could put up with it.

Burton had started his career by doing business, so Nicolas and his whole family had lived in the old house with the old man since he had taken over his father's business. At this moment, Nicolas's five daughters were chattering non-stop. Rejoyla was really impressed by Burton who didn't even frown when surrounded by so many noisy girls. Truth be told, Rejoyla could barely stand it.

"Ahem!" Burton coughed gently, and the whole living room quieted down. Clearly, he was quite mighty in the Sterling family. He was in a good mood today and his serious face showed a rare smile.

"Grandpa, is there any good news today? Look at you! You're beaming so happily that I don't even dare to recognize you. Are you really my grandfather? I thought you were my father."

Hillary, Nicolas's seventh daughter, was eloquent. She not only asked about what Burton was going to announce but also praised Burton for looking as young as her father. At the same time, she managed to flatter her father by saying that he took after Burton. Rejoyla sighed with emotion inwardly, "Hillary is really brilliant. No wonder her family dotes on her so much."

Everyone in the Sterling family burst into laughter. Heidi scolded with a smile, "Girl, you're being rude. How can you talk to your elders like that? Only your grandfather and father would spoil you like this. Otherwise, no one would dare to talk to the elders like this!"

"I only dared to say that because I knew my grandpa and dad wouldn't be angry. I just have loving elders."
