Since Summer Sutton had the baby, it seemed that was the only thing Adrian cared about.
Every time the Walyon Family held a family meeting, once business was done, the Old Master would start talking, the conversation revolving entirely around Adrian and his spouse's child.
In subsequent meetings, he chatted on about many things, like asking Diana Wood to arrange Summer's three meals and to remember to have the family Doctor occasionally check up on her.
Bryce Walyon listened beside them, his head aching.
Is Adrian's child made of gold?
Is it worth being so constantly on their minds, letting so many people sit and listen to the old man's incessant chatter?
His fingers tightened around the teacup in his hand, and Bryce gritted his teeth again and again.
...
When they walked out of the meeting room, it was already past ten.
Bryce was the first to leave the room, followed closely by Summer.
