Chapter 743 - Seventy Hundred And Forty-three: Prove Yourself (2/2)

Niklaus strode over to his son till they were standing face to face, father and son facing off. Allen was a perfect copy of his father hence for Niklaus it was like staring down at the younger stubborn version of himself.

Niklaus was taller than his son by just a few inches, however, Allen was a growing kid and would be taller in a few months to come. Even at that, Allen could never challenge his father and he showed that submission by lowering his gaze.

”Since you claim to be the firstborn son of this family and deserve to be respected. Go prove yourself, then,”

”What?”

”For two months, you'd live outside my home. My secretary would move you to a modest property where you would spend the next two months -”

”Niklaus -!”

Yet Niklaus ignored his wife and went on, ”Your security would be assured and you have all the freedom to go on with your hedonistic lifestyle. Survive for the time frame and Neon would leave here,”

”Dad!” Ailee didn't know who to be in support of. She loved her brother Allen but she can't let go of Neon as well. Why can't both of them just live in harmony?

”I don't think that's a good idea,” Isabella pointed out, ”With Jennifer on the loose, we have to stay united. What if she singles him out?”

”I'm starting a manhunt for Jennifer starting from now, plus the bodyguards are there. Allen would be safe,” Niklaus informed her just as Reina left the room, clearly angry at his decision.

A tensed silence stretched amongst them until Allen smugly announced, intentionally facing Neon, ”I guess no school for me since I have to go pack up and move to my new apartment,”

He then leaned closer to whisper into Neon's ears, ”Be prepared to leave the rest of our lives in two months,” He then added with emphasis, ”My sister would miss you,”

Neon clenched his fist by his side, however, he sadly realized he had no right to be with Allen. He was the stranger in this place and Ailee was leaving because of this - Reina would probably be pissed by this.

Allen left for his room smugly.

”I'd see you all when I'm back,” Neon announced, leaving for school with Ailee hurrying after him.

”Neon, wait up!”

As soon as the others left, only Anabelle, Isabella, and Niklaus remained at the table since the kids had been taken away by Amanda during the initial tension.

”So what now?”
