“The formula was passed down from my grandfather, and it’s really important to the Swanson family, so we can’t just give it away.” Martin spoke in a calm, soothing tone.

He went on, “Grandma, we’re family. There’s no need to make things so awkward between us. No matter what happened in the past, my mom married into the family, and the Swansons have always treated her well, haven’t they?”

Suddenly, there was a loud thud.

As soon as Martin finished talking, Stella snatched up a cup and threw it straight at him.

Martin didn’t react fast enough. The cup smacked him on the head, and a lump instantly started bleeding.

He pressed his hand to his bleeding forehead, and said angrily, “Grandma, what are you doing?”

“What am I doing?” Stella shouted, her voice trembling with fury. “I’m trying to knock some sense into you, you heartless brat! Your mom carried you for nine months and gave birth to you, and now she’s been wronged.

“Instead of standing up for her, you actually help others go against her. Don’t you have a conscience?”

“I’m not ” Martin stammered, trying to defend himself.

But Stella cut him off before he could finish. “Go back and tell James and Sarah they need to fork over 30 million and the formula, no exceptions.

“And Sarah has to come here herself, apologize to your mom, and invite her back home. Otherwise, just watch the Swanson family go down in flames!”

“You’ve got two hours,” Stella snapped. “Get lost!”

After Stella threw him out, Martin’s face was as gloomy as a thundercloud.

He turned to glare at the Lowell residence’s door, slammed shut behind him.

His eyes

flashed with a chilling intent to kill.

He thought, ‘Anyone who dares stand in my way is as good as dead!’

At the Swanson residence.

The whole family was waiting in the living room when Martin get home.

“Martin, so, what happened? Did they agree?” Sarah asked, worry etched on her face.

“I…” Martin looked at Sarah, looking uneasy, and then shook his head.

“The Lowell family won’t budge. Grandma says we have to cough up 30 million and the formula, plus you have to go in person and bring Mom home,” he said.

Everyone in the living room went quiet.

Suddenly, a cold snort came from the corner.

“Tsk,” Ethan sneered. “Lanelle could’ve settled this ages ago, but you just had to play the righteous hero. Now you blew it, and they’ve tacked on another demand. Really impressive, Martin.”

“You!” Martin snapped, his anger flaring. “Don’t pin this on me! Dad hadn’t screwed up, we wouldn’t have been stuck like

this!”

Martin shot James a look with a hint of resentment.

James’s face darkened, and he was about to speak when Ethan cu in, “Way to be Dad’s golden boy. Can’t handle things. yourself, so you blame him? Is that your excuse for screwing up

Ethan wasn’t exactly close to James, and they didn’t tell him what really went down back then..

But one thing he was sure of: James would never do something a vile as rape

Vivian.

On the contrary, James absolutely despised Vivian.

And because of that, he couldn’t stand any of the kids, either, just because they were related to Vivian.

Anyone with even a shred of common sense could see something was fishy, but Martin, the self-proclaimed genius, actually fell for it.

Ethan thought, ‘Seriously, how dumb can he get?’

Ethan honestly wondered how Martin ever managed to pass an IQ test.

“Shut up!” Martin snapped, his voice low and sharp. “At least I’m running around trying to fix this mess. What have you done? What gives you the right to mouth off at me?”

Ethan shot back, “Why can’t I blame you? If Lanelle had stepped in, this whole thing would’ve been a breeze. But you just had to play the hero and show off, and now look.

“Nothing’s sorted, and we’ve got even more trouble. So what if I call you out? Can’t handle it? Feeling salty?”

Ethan was fuming.

He’d been buried in company work for days.

When he found out the Lowell family was using a video to threaten James and demand the Swanson family’s formula, he dropped everything and rushed back.

After seeing Sarah, he went straight to Elaine.

He wanted to ask if she had any good ideas.

Of course Elaine had a way to fix things, but Martin insisted she stay out of it.
