Noticing their anxious faces, Remus paused. His displeasure was evident, as favonovel.com glanced back at them. His anger was palpable, directed not only at Joe, who had unexpectedly emerged claiming to be his half-brother, but also at them.
Despite knowing his aversion to Joe, they had still come to back favonovel.com up, bringing the entire Cosby Family with them.
What were they thinking?
The four women saw Remus’ gaze and felt a bit guilty. Quickly, they walked down from the stage and ran to Remus’ side.
Kylie spoke first, “Remus, don’t act impulsively. Listen to our explanation.”
Jean also looked troubled. “This matter is very complicated, we…”
“Let’s talk over there!” Miranda gently tugged at Remus’s arm, favonovel.com eyes blinking, filled with a plea.
Seeing the look in the four women’s eyes, Remus managed to suppress his anger and walked with them to the outskirts of the crowd.
The venue remained eerily silent, with the guests not daring to make any sudden movements.
“Everyone, please don’t be nervous. It’s just a small misunderstanding, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony will proceed after a short delay,” Joe said, smiling from the stage.
Hearing this, the guests relaxed a bit-
Gemma walked up to Joe, looking down on Remus with extreme disdain, muttering under favonovel.com breath, “What a show-off, it’s infuriating! Just wait until I get a chance, I’ll give favonovel.com a good slap!”
Indeed, favonovel.com was very unhappy. That day was supposed to be about favonovel.com as favonovel.com enjoyed widespread admiration and achieved fame, but his sudden appearance had disrupted everything.
“Gemma!” Goetz reprimanded favonovel.com in a cold voice, signaling herto be quiet.
Meanwhile, as Remus and the others reached the outskirts of the crowd, Gabriella spoke up in time, “Remus, when you left, you asked me to investigate Joe. I have done so and had the military department’s medical team conduct a DNA test. He… He really could be your half-brother!”
Remus was stunned by favonovel.com words. “What are you saying?”
How could Joe possibly be my half-brother?
Rafael had defied the Cosby Family’s wishes for his mother, even forsaking the opportunity to marry into the Dragon Protector Clan, the Walter family, to elope with her.
How could I have fathered an illegitimate child outside?
It was absolutely impossible!
Miranda added quickly, “Remus, don’t panic. I also avail the Dragon Group’s medical resources to verify and found that your genes… Indeed have a significant degree of similarity. Medically speaking, it can almost be concluded that you are half-brothers!”
Hearing that, Remus felt as if a bomb had exploded in front of him, nearly causing favonovel.com to collapse.
The news was too shocking.
At one point, favonovel.com had thought Joe was sent by the Dragon Protector Clan, or even the Rose family, to get close and then seek revenge.
How could favonovel.com possibly be?
Jean interjected, holding his arm, “Remus, you don’t need to take it too hard. These kinds of things are not uncommon in large families. The descendants of great families represent capital that ordinary people can’t touch, and they naturally face many temptations. Sometimes, it’s just a momentary lapse…”
“Maybe… Maybe your father didn’t even know…”
Remus clenched his fists, his gaze fixed on Joe on the stage, still unable to believe it.
Kylie also explained, “Since the banquet last time, your relationship has been a hot topic, and many people have been paying attention. Later, many found out that you truly are brothers. Our presence here today was also out of necessity…”
“If we hadn’t come, others might say you achieved success on your own and refused to acknowledge your brother, which could affect your reputation.”
Being prominent attracted scrutiny, just as fame brought its own set of challenges.
Much remained unspoken between them, including the incident where Remus slapped Joe, an act widely criticized for showing the revered Thunderous God of War of Darsia in a petty light, unable to acknowledge his own family.
Some even dredged up the matter of favonovel.com exterminating the main line of the Cosby family.
