The eldest uncle's family probably never wanted to recall that day for the rest of their lives.
Staring at his father's cold gaze, they were completely stunned.
Later, he still didn't believe it, and even if his father was going to get angry, he asked Lambert and Hugh to have a paternity test. The results of the test turned out to be that Lambert was indeed Hugh's son! So many years! This seemingly honest third brother had deceived him!
But he dare not say anything.
After all, he had upset his father now. If he did something else, he and his family would be completely disgusted by his father.
So, even if he felt like vomiting blood, he endured it on the surface.
After the second uncle's family found out that Lambert was actually Hugh's biological son, their mood was about the same as that of the others. They were resentful and irritated that Hugh, a despicable and shameless villain, dared to cheat people with such things!
But now the wood has become a boat, and they can't do anything anymore.
But in their hearts, they still hated the cunning third house. But compared with the first and third brothers, the second was now in the most dangerous situation.
Aster knew what her husband was thinking. She directly told her son and daughter-in-law, "Try to get pregnant as soon as possible. After Arnold's son is born, the old lady may give them another 5%. Although the remaining 5% is definitely ours, there may be accidents. So you have to step up time."
Gwen's face was slightly red.
After all, talking about this in front of others is really embarrassing. But she just nodded her head and said softly, "I understand."
Finley also knew what this was all about and didn't create issues at this moment. He nodded his head to show that he understood. However, he thought Gwen was too rigid in bed, he didn't want to do it with her after a few attempts. He felt that it would be better to find a dance hall singer randomly outside, but he also knew that if he wanted his grandpa to accept the child, it must be his legitimate child.
The second uncle looked at his good-for-nothing son, and his heart was full of irritation and bitterness.
He really regrets it.
If he had known earlier that Finely would turn out this way, he should have properly educated him back then. Now, he wouldn't be behaving like a spoiled brat. Compared to Arnold and Lambert, anyone could see Finely wasn't capable enough.
But it was already too late for regrets.
Thankfully, the old man seemed to be in good health, so he could just wait it out. Until the very end, no one would know who would ultimately be the favored one!
...
In recent times, the main family branch had been trying to please the old man and the old lady, fearing that the incident would have made them resent the main branch.
This was all thanks to Beverly's pregnancy.
Even though the expressions of the old man and old lady remained impassive, they were, at least, not as icy anymore, and their attitudes had softened a bit.
The old lady, however, seemed to favor Lucian.
It might be because Lucian was incredibly handsome and utterly charming. He had always been the old lady's most cherished child. In just a few months, her affection for this little lad had grown more deeply. At this point, she almost couldn't bear to part with him for even a day. The sight of this worried the main branch greatly.
They feared that the old lady's affection would all go to the son of the third branch in the end.
