Henry let out a quiet laugh. “You really don’t care much about your sister, do you? Back when you were stuck living off the Curtis family, you survived because of your mother and your own sister. I heard you even made your mother so angry she ended up in the hospital. That’s cold. Treating your own family like that… I don’t think any of us could go that far. Honestly, your methods are something else.”
Of course, Henry had looked into Darin’s past with the Curtis family.
His words barely stopped short of calling Darin using women to climb up in the world, only to turn on the very people who helped him. The implication was clear—Darin was ungrateful and ruthless.
Darin kept his handsome face perfectly calm. He didn’t react at all, just nodded his thanks to the staff serving his tea.
Max glanced over at him.
Henry reached down to stroke the Blue Bay Shepherd by his side. He spoke with a sly edge. “It’s a shame about the wolfdog I used to have. It went wild the other day and bit someone, so I had to put it down. Can’t keep a dog that bites.”
No one missed the meaning behind his words.
Darin sipped his tea, his expression unreadable.
Max spoke up, his tone slow and even. “Seems to me you’re not all that capable yourself.”
Henry’s face froze at that.
Across from Max, Jeffrey stayed silent, just watching.
The mood in the room grew tense.
Cian jumped in, trying to smooth things over. “Funny timing. Dubby just had puppies. Henry, if you want one, I can send one over once they’re a little bigger.”
Henry pulled himself together and forced a thin smile. “Alright.”
“Daddy!”
Anne’s cheerful voice cut through the tension, brightening the whole room.
Max rested a hand on Anne’s back. When she spotted Darin, her face lit up. “Uncle Darin!”
