"I understand, Dad." Shaun sighed inwardly. He thought he was very smart, but compared to Brennan, he was still too inexperienced.
"As expected of my son. When you rise again, the time will come for us father and son to take revenge." Brennan’s eyes were filled with hatred.
Shaun's lips moved slightly. "Dad, I want to ask you a question. 20 years ago, after you divorced Mom, did you two ever... sleep together again?"
Brennan was startled. After a moment, his eyes flashed with annoyance. "Why are you asking that? It's been so many years that I’ve already forgotten.
Just the thought of Lea makes me nauseous.”
"Is it because of Mason and her?” Shaun could not help but ask.
"What else could it be? No man can stand something like that. I don’t care what history she had with Mason. She should've at least kept a distance from him for the sake of her child after getting married, but what did she do instead? She neglected you and went out with Mason every day."
Even though it was so long ago, Brennan’s veins still popped out in anger at the mention of it. "Afterward,
she wanted to divorce me because I beat up Mason. W e fought several times and I was disheartened, so I left."
"Dad, I'm not asking about your history with Mom. I'm asking if you've ever slept with her after the divorce," Shaun said very seriously, "It’s really important.
Maybe my mom got drunk or something..."
A touch of embarrassment flashed across Brennan's handsome face. "There was that one time. I had a big fight with Lea and said many harsh words. Afterward, I felt that I had been quite hurtful and went back to find her. She was drunk, and... Ahem. It's all in the past. Don't mention it again."
He did not know that his words had caused great waves in Shaun's heart.
Lea said that she had been drunk at that time. Could it be that she was so drunk that she failed to recognize who the man really was?
