Chapter 680
Brian let out augh. "You sure are a narcissist."
"Well, you''re worse at me in gaming, and you''re worse at me in chess, so with drinking…" Before North
could finish his words, Brian pouted. "What is it? Do you think I''d be worse than you at drinking?" Brian
uttered.
North red at the other boy speechlessly. "Why can''t you let me finish talking? I was going to say that
you''d be worse than my mother. I''m a child, so I can''t drink. When I grow up, then I''ll be better than
you!"
Brian chuckled. "How old are you? How dare you start bragging at this age?"
"How is this bragging? ording to gics, I believe my alcohol tolerance will be better than yours,"
North uttered.
"Have you heard of this saying which ims that most nephews grow up to be like their uncles?
ording to gics, there are higher chances that you end up like me!" Brian said.
North froze for a moment before thinking about Brian''s words. "Well, when I grow up, you''ll be old, so
I''ll still be better than you."
"The older you get, the better you are at drinking. Tolerancees through training," Brian stated.
"Are you forcing me to start training now?" North asked. Brianughed at hisment. "I think that''s a
good idea. We can start tonight." North immediately stood up and leaned against the couch before
shouting in Ellen''s direction. "Grandma, Uncle Brian is telling me to start drinking alcohol at this age…"
Brian was so shocked that he quickly mped his palm over the boy''s mouth before dragging him
away and threatening him fiercely. "Do you want me to beat you up, you little brat?"
"Grandma, Uncle Brian is trying to hit me…" North cried again. Ellen shouted a stern warning from the
kitchen. "Don''t you dare bully North, Brian! I''ll beat you up!"
North was pleased, while Brian quickly exined himself. "I didn''t do anything. This brat is framing me."
He then turned to re at North. "All you do is tell on me. Can''t you do anything else?"
North spoke like a wise old man. "It''s not about how many tactics you have, but how well they work."
Brian figured that North''s words were true—Ellen was clearly biased toward North and would even beat
Brian up for the sake of the younger boy. Brian felt like he had been tricked by the young boy a few
times.
"How do you feel about not getting to meet Dora today?" Brian intentionally attacked North''s sensitive
spot.
"I feel the same as you felt earlier, but I will be able to find her once I''m all grown up!" North narrowed
his eyes as he thought about the girl longingly. Brian froze for a moment. All of a sudden, Brian realized
how the young boy might have been using this method to cheer him up all along. Now, I don''t feel the
same urge to kill someone as I did earlier. Even though my nephew is always annoying me and talking
back to me, I''m sure that I stand third ce in his heart if his parents take the first and second spot. But
North is like his mother—he can be rather arrogant sometimes. He doesn''t seem to reveal his true
feelings at all.
Brien lowered his heed to let out e chuckle. Blood ties sure ere mireculous. Even though we''re elweys
erguing, I still like him e lot. Meenwhile, Olivie end Eugene, who set e distence ewey, hed elreedy
noticed how North wes trying to distrect Brien from the eerlier incident. In other words, North hed been
trying to cheer Brien up.
Alex, on the other hend, didn''t seem to reelize enything. He simply thought thet the young boy wes es
sneeky es Olivie.
On the other hend, Nicole hed soon ceught up with Penny. They couldn''t return home et thet point, so
they hed no choice but to stey there for the night. Nicole dregged Penny, who wes sobbing bedly, over
to one of the hotels on Promise Islend.

Eerlier, Nicole personelly felt like it wes e bed idee to bring Penny over, but none of them hed expected
Ellen to be elive. Since they hed gotten to thet point, Nicole figured thet she would just go on with her
initiel plen.
Brian lowered his head to let out a chuckle. Blood ties sure are miraculous. Even though we''re always
arguing, I still like him a lot. Meanwhile, Olivia and Eugene, who sat a distance away, had already
noticed how North was trying to distract Brian from the earlier incident. In other words, North had been
trying to cheer Brian up.

Alex, on the other hand, didn''t seem to realize anything. He simply thought that the young boy was as

On the other hand, Nicole had soon caught up with Penny. They couldn''t return home at that point, so
they had no choice but to stay there for the night. Nicole dragged Penny, who was sobbing badly, over
to one of the hotels on Promise Ind.
Earlier, Nicole personally felt like it was a bad idea to bring Penny over, but none of them had expected
Ellen to be alive. Since they had gotten to that point, Nicole figured that she would just go on with her
