Chapter 1223: Chapter 1223: Will Snatch It Back!
Following this, Jonathan Thompson was just about to say something, but he was directly interrupted by Jordan Thompson.
"Come on, big bro, aren’t you willing to help me out even with this small favor? We’re blood-related brothers after all!"
Then, Jordan dramatically clutched his chest, showing a look of great pain.
"Forget it, forget it, it must be my fate to perish here!"
Jonathan’s expression showed great disdain, then he reached out and pushed Jordan’s arm slightly too hard, causing Jordan to stumble and almost fall.
"Damn, big bro, if you’re not going to help me, are you going to help Grandpa do me in?"
"Hey now, stop your nonsense. Grandpa doesn’t have time to deal with your matters right now."
Jonathan waved his hand at Jordan, bringing the conversation back on track.
"What happened?" Jordan blinked, puzzled.
"Because Justin Battleson is here." Obviously, Jonathan didn’t even want to mention Justin Battleson’s name.
Upon hearing this, Jordan’s eyes lit up, and he nodded towards the inside of the villa.
"He’s inside?" A gleam appeared in Jordan’s eyes.
As soon as Jonathan nodded, Jordan couldn’t wait to rush into the villa.
The moment he had been eagerly anticipating had finally arrived.
After all, since Justin Battleson and Charlotte Thompson announced that they were together again, Justin hadn’t truly faced Mr. Thompson.
By the time Jordan hurried into the villa, he saw Justin Battleson and Charlotte Thompson standing side by side in the living room, with Mr. Thompson sitting upright on a sofa holding his cane.
Several children were also gathered around Justin Battleson and Charlotte Thompson.
Jordan’s brow twitched slightly.
He watched Mr. Thompson’s expression, which didn’t look like he was about to beat up Justin.
It wasn’t even as angry as when Mr. Thompson looked at him.
And it was at this moment that Jordan realized his entry had drawn Mr. Thompson’s attention, which made him quickly shrink his shoulders and quietly hide beside James Thompson.
"Brother James, what’s happening here?" Jordan whispered to James Thompson.
James glanced at Jordan standing next to him and chuckled softly.
"It seems things are not too bad."
He then shifted his gaze away from Justin Battleson and Charlotte Thompson, waving to Hank Thompson to come over.
"Come on, Uncle James will take you kids for some cake."
James spoke to Hank Thompson, indicating for him to bring the other children over as well.
The children who were around Charlotte Thompson heard this and quickly gathered around James, who naturally led them out of the living room.
"Uncle James, is Grandpa angry?"
Hank had noticed earlier that when dad and mom came back, Grandpa’s face didn’t look too good, and Hank even overheard a light grunt near Grandpa.
James was somewhat surprised by Hank’s remark.
He had thought Hank was as straightforward as Jonathan Thompson; it now appears he exceeds Jonathan by a lot.
"If your most favorite treasure was suddenly taken by someone else, would you be angry?" James asked Hank.
"Of course, I’d be angry!" Hank responded without hesitating.
"And I would definitely try everything to get it back!"
He added another line.
