Chapter 446: What a Child!
Morton brought the subject back. โDad, I must get justice for Dalton! The doctor said that he has sequelae. He is still young. Chandler couldnโt punish him recklessly just because he is the family head!โ
Dylan, somewhat lost in thought, turned a deaf ear to Morton.
โDad!โ Morton called him again.
Dylan came back to his senses and waved his hand. โIโm tired. Itโs your business. Deal with it yourself!โ
โDad!โ Morton found it incredible.
Dylanโs attitude was obviously different. He was furious that three of Daltonโs ribs had been broken. Why the sudden change in him? Was it because Chandler had mentioned his mother?
Did Dylan still care about her?
Chandler mocked, โMorton, you keep claiming that I punished Dalton recklessly. Why donโt you ask him what he did? Dalton had no respect for my wife and captured her. Dad, do you think he deserved to have three of his ribs broken?โ
Charlotte was shocked that Chandler had exposed the matter in public.
Dylan was stunned. โChandler, what do you mean?โ
Chandler glanced back at Meryl. โHe covets my wife. In addition to breaking three of his ribs, I am going to throw him out of the family. Dad, whatโs your opinion?โ
His words revealed much. Dylan knew that Chandler must have a reason for attacking Dalton. Yet, he didnโt expect that Dalton had imprisoned Meryl.
It all made sense.
Chandler sat beside Meryl and put his arm around her shoulder.
โAs the saying goes, wash oneโs dirty linen at home. There is no one else here, and the other family members are not here. I did not intend to be cruel to Dalton at first. As long as he went abroad and never came back, that was all. However, since Morton tried to seek justice, I decided to expel Dalton from the Aniston family!โ
Morton instantly panicked.
He looked at Dylan. โDad, Dalton is childish. He must have kidnapped Meryl for a reason.โ
He had planned to deny the fact, but it was easy to investigate, and Dylan shouldnโt be fooled.
Chandler sneered, โWell, Dalton is almost thirty. What a child!โ
Morton said, โMaybe Meryl seduced Dalton!โ
Meryl frowned. โMorton, what do you mean? Did I seduce Dalton? That day, he knocked me out and took me out of the hospital. It has been more than 20 days. Surveillance footageโ Do you want me to produce evidence?โ
What surprised her was how shamelessly Morton, Dylanโs eldest son, could distort the truth at his age. He was unconvinced. โDad watched Dalton grow up. He knows Dalton well! What can the surveillance footage prove? Even if he really tied you up, do you dare to say that you had no responsibility at all?โ
His ridiculous statement simply amused Meryl in her rage.
Chandler patted her on the shoulder and glared coldly at Morton. โIs the surveillance footage unable to prove Daltonโs crime, or are you blind?โ
Morton was furious. โYou! Chandler, I am your elder brother. How could you be so rude to me?โ
Dylan remained silent for a long time. Since Chandler had just mentioned his mother, he appeared somewhat distracted.
At that moment, as his two sons kept arguing, he tapped his crutch.
โShut up! Chandler, Dalton remains in critical condition in the intensive care unit. Even if you have any complaints about him, he has already been punished.โ
