Unbreakable Love His Passion for Her Transcends Death

Everyone at the table was stunned because it was the first time someone had been bold enough to scold Malcolm like that.

Feeling upset, Marlene protected Malcolm. However, Noah was younger than him, so it was hard for her to be harsh.

Although Malcolm was an arrogant child, he wasn't dumb at all. He knew Noah was insulting him immediately. "How dare you insult me, you feral boy?" Noah still wanted to add fuel to the fire and said, "Don't be angry. I was just telling the truth. Didn't your teacher teach you how to be polite at school?"

Yvette was speechless, thinking about how she'd told him to keep quiet at the dining table before they'd left the house earlier.

But it wouldn't be nice for an adult to interfere when the kids were arguing. So, she could only signal Noah to stop talking with her eyes.

He purposely avoided her gaze and raised his eyebrows at Malcolm, seemingly provoking the latter.

Malcolm still didn't dare to hit Noah because the latter looked like Zachary. So, he picked up his spoon and threw it at Noah. However, he missed his shot, and it landed on Clifford.

Clifford was infuriated. "Zayden, Marlene, look at your great son! Is this what you've taught him after I told you to lecture him this morning? I think he has eaten enough, and you should get lost with him."

Zayden's and Marlene's faces instantly fell when they got kicked out in front of everybody. Marlene immediately stood up and grabbed Malcolm, saying angrily, "Let's go and stop being an eyesore here." Malcolm didn't want to move at all. "He started it first, Great-Grandpa!"

Marlene slapped him. "You have no more rights to speak now that Noah is here."

After being slapped, Malcolm burst out crying.

Zayden decided to push the blame away. "Grandpa, aren't you being too biased? The kid has only been here for a few days, and we don't even know if he's part of the Lane family yet-" Before he could finish his words, Xavier coldly said, "What did you say?"

When Zayden heard that, he immediately remembered how he'd almost frozen to death in the river. Then, he stopped talking right away.

Xavier added, "You're all adults here. So, why are you as insensible as the children? Don't you know who's at fault here?"

Sitting next to him, Yvette was

surprised that he was protecting Noah. She hadn't been expecting it at all. Noah felt the same way, and at all. Noah

he looked at Xavier in a daze. He didn't understand why the latter could still be so domineering when he couldn't see anything.

Zayden and Marlene stood in their places, unable to say a single word.

At that moment, Jeremiah finally spoke. "Zayden, Marlene, you really should do something about Malcolm's attitude. If the public

finds out about this, they might say that the Lane family is rude."

Marlene felt like her heart had been stabbed when she heard that. She didn't show anything on her face, but she wished Xavier and Jeremiah would just die.

Zoey hadn't expected Jeremiah to

offend someone else to protect

Noah, and she spoke as well.

"Zayden, Marlene, it's normal for kids to be naughty when they're young. I'm sure they'll grow out of it.

wouldn't he be considered useless?"

Not only did she say that to help Marlene get out of the awkward situation, but she'd also called Noah useless for staying away from trouble.

Shannon understood what Zoey was implying. She wouldn't have minded if Yvette was being bullied. However, she would never tolerate it if someone badmouthed her grandson.

"That's where you're wrong, Zoey. Xavier and Jeremiah have always been sensible since they were born, and look at how great they are now! So, children should be taught well from a young age."
