Chapter 162
Seeing Skr and Charles having fun together, it was like Charles was her real brother.
That made Samuel fume with anger.
“Let’s go take a look,” Kenny said, walking toward Skr’s direction.
Samuel scowled. “What’s the point? We’ll just get the cold shoulder anyway.”
“Stop talking so much. Let’s just go.”
“Fine.”
Reaching theke, Charles and Skr found a handful of groups enjoying camping trips. The vast
expanse of azure blue water shimmered invitingly.
“We could bring the whole family here to camp sometime. Look over there. Having the entire family
gathered together seemed so cozy.
“Does it remind you of our childhood? The time when I took you swimming? After Mom found out, I
got taught a lesson.”
Skr finally remembered. “Mom used the broom to hit you, right? The broom she sweeps the yard
with?

She even broke the broom hitting you.”
“I don’t me her. That summer, two or three kids around our age drowned in that river. Mom was
just
worried something might happen to us.” Charles just thought about it and realized theycked
safety
awareness as kids.
Skr picked up a stone, and she sent it skipping across the surface with a flick of her wrist. It
bounced five or six times before disappearing beneath the water.
Charles‘ eyes lit up with apetitive spirit. “Skr, you’re so good at this! Did you practice in
secret?”
Charles also took a handful of stones and threw them one by one into theke.
“I’m just naturally talented,” Skr replied.
Growing up with only brothers, Skr thrived on rough–and–tumble games. Stone skipping was a
childhood favorite; the three siblings–Skr, Charles, and Harvey could y stone skipping for a
long
time.
“Watch and learn, little sis; I’ll show you that the master is always better than the disciple.” Charles
picked
up a stone he was satisfied with and threw it.
The stone skipped ten times,
Skr gave him a thumbs–up. “Impressive, but Harvey won’t be easily convinced.”
“Ha! Harvey learned everything from me. There’s no way he can surpass the master. Charles was
quite
confident.
Skr didn’t want to burst Charles‘ bubble. She and Harvey used to practice secretly when they
were kids. They had long surpassed his level. She had held back her strength just now.
“How childish!” A cold sneer disrupted the siblings‘ fun.
“Everywhere I turn, there you are.” Charles frowned at Samuel. His expression was unfriendly as he
asked, “Can’t the Williams family keep their attack dogs on a leash? This isn’t the jungle, we have
laws here.”
*Manners make the master. Don’t expect too much Skr stifled a giggle; Charles was really good
at being sarcastic.
Samuel erupted. “Charles, you’ve got some nerve! How dare you talk to me like that? Believe it or
not, I’ll have a word with the director and your role as the male fourth lead will vanish faster than
smoke.
“You want to make a name for yourself in the entertainment industry, right? I’ll make sure you don’t
have the chance!”

Charles‘ jaw clenched, anger shing in his eyes. “You’re vicious and shameless! You’re lucky to
have your family backing you up. But your arrogance won’tst you forever, Samuel!
“With your lousy acting skills, do you really think you can make it in the entertainment industry?
What goes aroundes around.”
“That’s enough! Stop it!” Kenny coldly reprimanded. He hadn’te here to escte tensions. He
came only to have a civil conversation with Skr.
“Skye, do you know who’s targeting our family? Do you really have a powerful benefactor?” Kenny
tried to keep his tone gentle.
Their family couldn’t afford to have problems. If they did, Kenny’s position at thepany would be
jeopardized. He’d already tried suppressing Steven once, and thepany turned a blind eye.
But things had changed; thepany valued Steven more and even acknowledged his research.
They were about to reward Steven with another bonus.
A few hundred thousand dors in bonus wasn’t a big deal to him; however, the public recognition
stung
Kenny’s pride.
“Think before you speak!” Charles spat as he raised his fist, ready to strike.
