Chapter 1200
Sean was taken aback for a moment.
Then, his eyes revealed a hint of frustration. He saw the blacked-out screen of the phone, and instantly understood
why Enzo had asked him that question.
In this world, which father would remain silent after seeing their child covered in bruises? And instead of saying
anything, simply hang up the video call?
Sean realized he was being held hostage, a situation considered the most unpredictable in safety classes. Yet Julian
seemed completely unconcerned, confirming Sean's fears that his father didn't care about him.
"You're wrong." Sean lifted his head, and his small eyes carried a coldness that seemed endless as he gazed at
Enzo.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOver this extended period, this boy hadn't cried out in pain. And now, faced with a situation where his parents didn't
seem to care about him, he appeared even more composed than Enzo.
This made Enzo start to reconsider if it had been a mistake for Tommy to bring Sean out.
Perhaps...
His gaze shifted to the next room. "Your sister’s the most important one in your family, right? Julian values her more
than he does you, doesn't he?"
Sean continued to deny it.
In fact, that was what he feared the most.
He would never admit that he wasn't important to his father. As an older brother, he hoped to bear all the anger
and hurt that he could.
If someone had to be in trouble, he wanted it to be him. At least that way, the family would have a little less
sadness.
"I've told you," Sean said solemnly. "I'm important in our family."
But Enzo remained skeptical. It was mainly because Julian had abruptly ended the video call, which seemed too
direct and uncaring.
He had shown the man a video of his own son, for goodness ' sake! Yet, it seemed like Julian didn't care at all!
Sean knew this fact couldn't be ignored, so he remembered what Tommy had said before bringing him here.
"I'm the heir of our family," he said seriously. "How important do you think I am?"
After all, he was just a child. It didn't take much to get the truth out of him. When he got angry about being
considered less important than his sister, he inadvertently revealed this crucial piece of information.
Children didn't lie, and Enzo believed in that.
So, he gave Sean a more sinister look. "If that's the case, you’ll be the last piece on my chessboard."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSean's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. His calm expression suddenly changed, and he grabbed Enzo's
hand tightly.
"What do you mean by the last piece? What are you planning to do with my sister?"
Sean tugged at Enzo's clothes, and refused to let go. He had a surprisingly strong grip for a child. It was as if he had
transformed from a trapped cub into an angry little lion.
He inherited Julian's coldness and determination in full measure.
"I said I'm the heir of the Fulcher family! Didn't you hear me? What are you planning to do with my sister? If you
touch her, my dad isn't the only one you'll need to be scared of!"
Seeing that Enzo remained silent and only glared at him menacingly, Sean went straight to the door, blocking
Enzo's way out.
"I won't allow you to harm my sister!"
Unfortunately, he was too small.
In Enzo's eyes, this kind of determination lacked the strength to back it up.
Sean was easily pushed back to the ground with a gentle lift of Enzo's hand.
