Chapter 926 - Michelle Adler's Fury!

At this moment, Leonard smiled comfortably when he heard Lyle's answer. "Actually, she's right!"

"Hah?" Lyle was taken aback.

The next second, he immediately held his chest with both hands, his face full of disbelief.

Leonard narrowed his eyes at his naive attitude, and patted him on the shoulder with a sigh. "Listen to me!"

Lyle pressed his chest and nodded solemnly. "Okay, just tell me! Whatever you say, I'll believe it!"

"She's right, I'm not her son." Leonard blinked at Lyle, and then looked sideways somewhere in a slightly indistinct tone.

Lyle opened the corner of his mouth and forgot to react, his eyes stared at the back of his 'brother', and hesitantly said, "Then... are you Daddy's son?"

Leonard tilted his head and nodded. "Yes."

"Then you're still my older brother! We're just born from different mothers, right?"

Lyle's words left Leonard speechless for a moment.

He licked his thin lips, took out a cigarette case from his pocket, rubbed it and said, "What she said is true, we were born from different mothers. But I don't agree with her other words. He mentioned that dad and I worked together to kick you out of the Adlers, do you think we ever thought of anything like that?"

"Second, whether I call you brother or not, the most important thing is how you feel. Do you want to call me brother? Lyle, our parents are getting divorced, my advice to you is don't bother getting carried away with them. Even if father and mother divorce, it will not change the fact that you are my brother and the fifth young master of the Adler family, so nothing will change!"

Lyle nodded absentmindedly. A few seconds later, he asked again, "Why did they divorce? Mother said that because of you, father filed for divorce."

Leonard was silent for a moment, looked down and took out a cigarette. He took a bite of his cigarette, and when he blew out white smoke. "Maybe it really was because of me, but it's undeniable that it was their only excuse."

"Their marriage had been wrong from the start, and this was the result of those bottled up feelings that had built up over time. If it really was because of me, they shouldn't have married 33 years ago."

Leonard's explanation made Lyle a little confused. After a moment of silence, he spread his arms and said. "Brother, I… I just can't digest all that at once! Gimme that, I want to relax my mind!"

Lyle then took the cigarette case and lit it in a daze. He choked as soon as he took a sip.

He patted his chest and coughed twice. He pinched the cigarette butt with his thumb and forefinger, and said anxiously, "Brother, are you taking advantage of me? She must know that dad loves me the most, so she's using me to make trouble! But I guess it's not true, because of what she said to me today… it seems that it will trigger a dispute!"

Lyle is not stupid!

After hearing everything from Leonard, he calmly analyzed the situation, and somehow felt like being used as a weapon.

Lyle had been loved by everyone since he was a child, and it was this loving atmosphere that made him feel very deep for his family.

His parents and older brother were his relatives, and this emotional bond made him very fond of them.

What Leonard was most proud of was this little brother was still able to have this kind of brotherly respect.

Therefore, he would never act like Luke did to break the bridge between them.

At this moment, Leonard saw that Lyle's frustrated expression was fading, and he felt relieved. "Lyle, if you still recognize me as an older brother, listen to me. Go out and find a place to relax, wait until all problems are solved. After that, go back home."

Lyle blinked, and said, "Of course you are still my older brother, but… you and dad won't hurt mom while I'm gone, right?"

Leonard didn't say a word, he only looked at him faintly.

Seeing this, Lyle immediately raised his hand and gave up. "Brother, I was wrong, I was just joking, don't take it seriously. But what mom did this time was very unusual. I'll come back later and I'll talk to her again."

"Let's go together." Leonard tossed the cigarette in his hand into the trash can, and walked out of the garden.

After a few steps, he looked back at Lyle, who was following in his footsteps. "You go to another house belonging to our family. Neither you nor I can handle this matter. The final decision is up to them."

"Okay, I'll go!"

...

Ten minutes later, Leonard came to Michelle's house by himself.

He was standing not far from the hall, his steps gradually slowing down.

Since knowing his life experience, the man never met Michelle.

He really doesn't know how to look into her eyes.

Leonard didn't stay outside the door for too long, and after a while, he stepped forward into the hall.

At this time, he stepped on the marble floor wearing leather shoes, and his steady footsteps seemed to be heard by Michelle in the living room.

"Lyle, are you back?"

Michelle walked hastily from the living room in her home clothes, her hair was tied loosely at the neck, her face was haggard without her usual grace and luxury.

Leonard stood quietly in front of the living room, looked at Michelle calmly, and pursed his lips. "It's me. "

After all, the word 'Mother' seemed inappropriate.

Michelle's worried look suddenly sank and became much more nonchalant.

She subconsciously raised her hand to cover the hair near her ear, and with her chin raised, her tone was blunt. "What are you doing here?"

Leonard looked at her expressionlessly, and said bluntly, "I came to ask why you would say such a thing to Lyle."

After hearing Leonard's voice, Michelle looked away, and then turned arrogantly and walked back into the living room. "Can I not tell the truth to my own child? In what capability are you coming here? As the heir to the Adler family or my step child?"

In just a few days, Michelle's attitude towards Leonard had drastically changed.

Today, she seemed completely unwilling to face him as a mother.

Leonard pursed his lips, and walked into the living room behind Michelle. Then he said in a deep voice, "I came here to talk to you, not to judge."

"Huh, talk to me?" Michelle sat quietly. She then sneered. "Your father told me yesterday that he told you the truth. Why are you still coming here? Do you think we should just pretend it didn't happen and go back to being a family?"

"Leonard, don't pretend to come to me to do a show. I am not your mother and you are not my child, there is nothing to talk about anymore. Also, you better stay away from Lyle from now on."

"I was forced to raise you for more than 30 years, but in the end, I would be kicked out of my house. You and your father have no conscience, and neither of you are human!"

The words stung Leonard's nerves.. The woman suddenly shouted angrily with a raging expression, without showing any graceful look at all.
