Seeing Adam Swantz's retreating figure, Matthew Swantz trembled with rage.
Scourge!
This scourge!
Derek Swantz stepped out in time, "Adam, if dad tells you not to go, just don't go, he would never harm you!"
As those words fell, Derek walked over to Matthew, supported his arm, and said in a subdued voice, "Dad, Adam is still young after all, he doesn't understand, don't take it too seriously."
His words might as well not have been said.
Matthew's fury peaked in an instant, "Young? He's almost thirty, still young?"
Thirty and should be established!
Besides, Derek was not much older than Adam.
The two are only a year apart.
