Chapter 162

Seeing Skylar 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 Skylar’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 the lake, Charles and Skylar 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.”

Skylar 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 blame 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 they lacked safety

awareness as kids.

Skylar 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 a competitive spirit. “Skylar, 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 the lake.

“I’m just naturally talented,” Skylar replied.

Growing up with only brothers, Skylar thrived on rough–and–tumble games. Stone skipping was a

childhood favorite; the three siblings–Skylar, Charles, and Harvey could play 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,

Skylar 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.

Skylar 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 Skylar 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 flashing in his eyes. “You’re vicious and shameless! You’re lucky to have your family backing you up. But your arrogance won’t last you forever, Samuel!

“With your lousy acting skills, do you really think you can make it in the entertainment industry? What goes around comes around.”

“That’s enough! Stop it!” Kenny coldly reprimanded. He hadn’t come here to escalate tensions. He came only to have a civil conversation with Skylar.

“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 the company would be jeopardized. He’d already tried suppressing Steven once, and the company turned a blind eye.

But things had changed; the company valued Steven more and even acknowledged his research. They were about to reward Steven with another bonus.

A few hundred thousand dollars 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.
