Heaven Domain (Iwan Cliff) novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176 Evan in Wrath (2)

The moment he stepped into the Cliffs' house, Evan saw the prepared banquet in the yard, but he was not interested at all. Instead, he, who had suddenly felt something was wrong moments earlier, asked, "Wait! Where's Troy? Where's Christ? Where are they?" Right, either at the airport or at the gate among those who welcomed him, he didn't see his son, grandson, his son's wife Darcy, or his grandson's wife and daughter.

"Old master."

"Uncle."

"Brother... let's go in first. Let's talk about it in the house," the Cliffs comforted Evan. Standing next to him, Neil felt more ashamed, his mind exhausted.

Evan's face turned so dark. He was away from home for decades! Now he had accomplished all his missions in the External Regions, he was also entitled the Super God of the External Regions, and he was about to be the eighth commander of the Military Headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom. He was back with so much glory, but his son's and grandson's families didn't come out to welcome him, eh? This was so abnormal!

"Where are my son's and grandson's families? Answer me!" Evan asked ghastly. Remembering the third elder's and Carl's attitudes on the way, he suddenly had a lot of worries, his voice shivering. "They must be fine! They must!" he prayed inwardly.

But his prayer was in vain because Neil, Troy, and the elders of the family, all around him, suddenly dropped to their knees.

"You... you people... you people..." Evan widened his mouth, his premonition getting stronger.

"Brother, I'm sorry! I didn't manage the family well! I'm so sorry!" Neil instantly wept. His elder brother had been away to protect the country a whole life. He had fought numerous bloody battles overseas. Yet, when he came home today, he saw something like this! How cruel this was to him! How cruel!

"Boom!" Then he suddenly strode a few meters and appeared before his younger brother Neil. He grabbed his brother by the collar, brought him up, and roared, "Where are they? Answer me!"

Evan wept harder and shook his head in agony.

"Chill out, Evan!" Carl appeared behind him, took his arm, and said solemnly, "Don't worry. Your son and grandson are still alive. The missions you've been performing over the years were very important, so we didn't dare to tell you what happened in your family five years ago. Sorry, this is our fault!"

Hearing that, Evan trembled violently. Now his premonition was getting stronger. He glared at Neil while grabbing his collar.

"Evan, let Neil explain it to you bit by bit. Now we still have some time. Don't waste any more time!" the third elder persuaded Evan.

Then Carl said to Neil, "Neil, tell your brother! Tell him what happened five years ago!"

"Five... five years ago? What happened? What happened to our family? Why are my son and grandson not here?" Evan staggered but still stared at Neil.

With tearful eyes, Evan knelt down again in agony before Evan and said, "Brother, five years ago... five years ago, Darcy died. Not long after Darcy died, Andy... Andy married Lily Swift he liked back then and brought her home. Christ... Christ quarreled with him, and they became enemies. Then, instigated by Lily, Andy deprived Christ of his right and... and..."

When it came to this, Neil could not bear to continue anymore. After all, he had begun swaying, his face ashen.

"Christ... Christ, my grandson, my grandson, what... happened to him? What did Lily and Andy do to him? Tell me, tell me!" Evan's eyes were red. He had almost guessed something, but he didn't dare to think further.

Neil lowered his head and continued, "Christ... Christ was kicked out of the family by Andy and Lily five years ago. They also deprived him of his family heirship and sent people to hunt him. He fled from Gotham all the way to Cleveque, got seriously wounded in Cleveque, jumped into the river..."

"What?! How dare the b*stard and the b*tch kick Christ out of the family and send people to hunt him!" Evan staggered when he heard that, and Carl supported him at once.

"It's true. Brother... sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!" Neil began banging his forehead on the floor. An elder brother was like a father to his younger brother. In their days, their parents died early. It was Evan, his elder brother, who brought him up. Decades ago, when he left, Evan entrusted the family to him. But he didn't manage it well. Now, when he was back, Evan saw such a scene. So he was too ashamed to face Evan.

But Evan then came to him again. He grabbed his collar again, brought him up, and roared at him, "No, no, when we were chatting on the phone the day before yesterday, you told me I have a four-year-old great-granddaughter, didn't you? It proves Christ is still alive, right? He is still alive, right? Answer me!"

Neil nodded seriously and said, "Yes, brother. Christ was very lucky. He is still alive. A girl from Pasoland saved him."

"Where are they then? Where? Are they doing well now? Where are they?" Evan's tears trickled down. He never expected that after he left, his grandson would be kicked out of the family and hunted!

Carl said to Evan, "Evan, don't worry. Your grandson is safe and sound, and... and he's now in Gotham."
