Indeed, Vania had yet to decide what to do.
Liam smiled. "How can I make decisions on your behalf? That being said, those distinguished families are related to one another. However you're gonna deal with it, there'll be pros and cons. It only depends on whether you'll choose yourself or everyone."
Vania replied, "I'll think about your suggestion, Liam." She could tell from Liam's words that he wanted her to settle the matter privately. However, those distinguished families had nothing to do with her, so she thought it'd be better to only consider Hanson's interests.
Bryan took some time to digest the matter before saying, "I didn't think Yvonne would be so audacious. In my opinion, Vania, you should teach her a lesson."
Vania was slightly moved; she never thought Bryan would side with her right away. She said with a smile, "It'll be great if I really have a younger brother like you."
Bryan was delighted by her words. "I'm a cousin of yours, actually. Hanson's maternal aunt is my paternal aunt, which makes us relatives."
"So you and Hanson are of the same generation in your family?"
"Yeah."
Vania had thought that Bryan only insisted on calling Hanson by his first name despite being a distant nephew of the latter's. Because of that, she was baffled by the fact that they were of the same generation in their family.
Liam explained with a smile, "We're about the same age, so Bryan and Thomas aren't willing to call me Uncle Liam. That's why I could only let them call me Liam instead."
Vania nodded in comprehension. So it's okay to do something like this? What a thing to learn about!
Bryan waved his hand. "Vania, when you recover, I'll definitely invite you to my place and introduce my siblings to you."
"Sure." Vania was very interested. She had never hankered for such family gatherings before.
Just then, the seven little children's voices rang as they rushed into the ward. "Mommy! Daddy!"
Seeing the seven children, Bryan and Liam were startled for a moment. This was their first time seeing Hanson's seven little kids, so they were astonished at the sight of them.
On the other hand, when the seven little kids saw Bryan and Liam, they also marveled at how fate brought them together. They politely greeted the two men, saying, "Nice to meet you two, misters."
"Hi." What a bunch of cute little kids! Bryan rubbed his palms together in front of the seven kids. Caressing the kids one after another, he felt an innate sense of closeness. He was so fond of the kids that he couldn't bear to part with them.
Hanson didn't expect the seven little kids to be so nice to Bryan, and this made him feel even more uncomfortable.
Bryan was still looking at the seven little kids. Even if I can't touch Hanson, I can touch more of his sons! After all, they're carbon copies of their father, so touching them would be equivalent to touching him, he thought while feeling very smug deep down.

Hanson sulked inwardly when he saw that the seven little kids didn't resist Bryan at all. This guy has nothing but a smooth tongue, no? Why would my wife and kids like him?
Liam didn't expect Hanson to become jealous because of the kids' response despite being an adult.
Bryan was now grinning from ear to ear. He said to the kids dotingly, "I'm gonna take you guys to shop for nice clothes and get something to eat, so come with me later."
"Alright." Jacob nodded in satisfaction. Now that this guy has caressed me so many times, I ought to charge him for it, he thought.
Hearing how sweet Jacob's voice was, Bryan got even more smitten with the kids. "Since this is our first meeting, I'll buy you guys whatever you want as a present." How could the stony-faced Hanson have such a bunch of adorable kids? He grinned like a Cheshire Cat.
At this moment, Jack knocked Bryan's hand off his face.
