Megan hurried home from the tea house. She tried to cover up the wound on her mouth. 'How annoying Lucian is.' When she returned home, Eric rushed over first. He was so afraid that his mother would be taken away by Victor.
"Eric, tell me, did Uncle Victor say anything bad to you? Did he threaten you with anything?" Megan asked him with concern. She didn't believe what Lucian said, but it was related to the mental health of Eric, so she had to ask Eric clearly.
Eric lowered his head. He was really scared when he heard Victor's name. "Mom, don't ask me that. I won't answer."
The reason why he didn't dare to tell Megan was that he was afraid that she would be taken away by Victor. Eric was a dutiful child. He would never allow such a thing to happen. Looking at his mother, he would not be afraid in the future, because his father said that he would protect them well.

Victor spoke slowly, in the same gentle tone as he had said before, "If you want an answer, I can give it to you. Although he is just a child, this child is Lucian's. I have a vendetta against Lucian, and we're sworn enemies! Are you satisfied now?"
"Satisfied? Don't I want Eric to grow up healthily?" Megan didn't understand what he meant. 'Even if he really has a vendetta against Lucian, then what does it have to do with Eric? And what did he mean by 'are you satisfied'?
Why should I be satisfied with their enmities?'
After saying that, Victor immediately stopped talking. He did fail. He did not hide and control his feelings well.
When he was emotional, his body could not bear it and he kept coughing. Megan even heard him retching on the phone, "Hello?"
Even in a fit of anger, Megan couldn't help but ask her friend what had happened. After all, her friend seemed to be very uncomfortable.
However, Victor said "sorry" painfully and hung up the phone immediately.
Megan was taken aback. 'What happened to Victor? Is he sick?'
