Chapter 1110 Complaining To Darius

“What?” Crystal was stunned and infuriated at the same time. “Did Benjamin really say that?”

Julian subsequently related everything that happened at the Graham residence to Crystal.

“Benjamin has crossed the line! Is he bullying us just because we have no one to back us up?” Crystal's eyes glistened in rage.

At the end of the day, her previous son was still the eldest among the Graham family's grandchildren. Yet, he was humiliated by Benjamin that way.

“I'm going to see Darius!” With nowhere to vent her anger, Crystal felt that she had to tell Darius what happened.

“Mom, Grandpa is under Uncle Benjamin's control. There's no way we can find him, let alone see him,” Julian replied through his gritted teeth.

“I don't care. I must let Darius be the judge. How can Benjamin insult you that way?”

Crystal insisted on bringing her case to Darius, as she was unable to tolerate seeing her son being ridiculed.

“Even if you see Grandpa, he might not decide to side with us,” Julian commented sarcastically. Grandpa is biased.

“Regardless of his decision, we still need to see him!” With no time for a change of clothes, Crystal stormed out.

The sight of how protective his mother was struck a chord with Julian. Thus, he got to his feet and followed her out. “Mom, I'll go with you!”

“Come along then,” Crystal agreed with a nod.

Upon arriving at the hospital, they learned that Darius had already been discharged, leaving them no choice but to head to Old Manor.

However, both mother and son were furious when the bodyguard barred them from entering the place.

“This is our home too. What gives you the right to stop us? If you don't let me in, I'll smash my head on the ground till you do.”

Glaring fiercely at the bodyguard, Crystal showed no fear in her attempt to barge in.

All of a sudden, William came over and instructed, “Let them in.”

Upon entering Old Manor, Crystal and Julian eased the scowl on their faces when they saw Darius drinking coffee in the living room.

“Dad!”

“Grandpa!”

Darius threw them both a glance. “Come and have a seat.”

Crystal and Julian took their seats and began to make small talk. “Have you had lunch, Dad?”

“I have.” Darius scrutinized both of them quickly. “What brings you here at this hour?”

“Grandpa, I would like to complain about Uncle Benjamin!” Julian declared in displeasure.

Crystal quickly gave her son a tug. Speaking in that tone will give Dad less reason to side with us.

“Mind your manners, Julian.”

The discreet gestures between mother and son didn't escape Darius' notice. Yet he chose to say nothing of it.

“Out with whatever you came here to say. It'll be time for my nap soon.”

Lowering herself in front of Darius, Crystal related how James was humiliated by Benjamin at the Graham residence.

The news briefly stunned Darius. Benjamin has returned from his business trip?

“You must have gotten on Benjamin's nerves. Otherwise, he wouldn't have flared his temper at you.” Darius gave Julian a look. The latter's character wasn't lost upon him.

“Grandpa, I just wanted to discuss something with him. I had no choice but to yell when his housekeepers prevented me from seeing him.”

Julian felt aggrieved. All these people have no respect for me.

“What did you want to discuss with him?” Darius flatly asked.

“Grandpa, Uncle Benjamin has caused Dad to end up in prison. He shows no mercy despite them being brothers. On top of that, our family business is being destroyed by him, causing us massive losses. We won't be able to survive at this rate.”

Darius gave Julian a stern look.

“Do you know why your father went to jail?”

The question caused Crystal and Julian to be dumbfounded.

“I'm glad you're aware of the reason, and here I was, assuming that you didn't. In that case, you can't blame Benjamin for his actions. Your father did him wrong first by attempting to murder him. The Graham family has no place for someone as treacherous as your father!”

Panic gripped Crystal and Julian upon hearing Darius' words. Is he planning to sever ties with our family?

“Dad, the matter hasn't concluded yet. You have to give Nick a chance!”
