"We're supposed to eat, right? Should we stop?" Francis interrupted him, and his face returned to normal as if he wasn't the one who had been angry just now.
Johnson chuckled and said, "Let's go to the dining room first. Everyone shouldn't stay here like this."
Ruby held onto his arm and looked up at him. Her expression didn't look happy.
Francis turned to Lilian, his finger touching the injured area. "Does it still hurt?"
Lilian looked into his eyes. The concern in them didn't seem fake.
He was always like this, sometimes appearing so close, like the moon in the water, just a reach away.
But when she truly reached out to grab the moon, she would realize it was just an illusion, easily shattered with a gentle touch.
He was like that, leading her step by step, willingly jumping into a bottomless abyss.
He led her to dive into the water and chase after that unattainable moon until suffocating in the tide.
And he watched from the side, soberly witnessing her downfall.
Lilian withdrew her gaze and lowered her long lashes to cover the look in her eyes. She shook her head.
Francis no longer spoke, holding her hand as they entered the dining room.
Everyone at the table had different thoughts, and naturally, the atmosphere of a normal family reunion meal was absent.
Francis seemed to have forgotten about the toy gun incident, calmly chatting with Mike about everyday matters and asking about the performance of Mike's subsidiary company. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
The Landau family's business was extensive, and it was unknown whether Everett wanted equal treatment for his younger generation or had other intentions.
The business under Landau Group was not explicitly delegated to anyone.
Although Francis was his excellent son whom he was proud of, he only gave Francis the position of CEO and a 20% stake, while the real power remained in his hands.
Although he had retired and rarely interfered in the company's affairs, he still held absolute control over the company.
The subsidiary company in Mike's hands was a dowry given by Everett to his daughter, with a 10% stake in Landau Group.
The same went for when Ruby got married, she also received a subsidiary company with a 10% stake.
However, Ruby didn't like to manage the company, leaving it to Johnson to handle. In addition to that, Johnson also served as a vice president of the company.
The one who almost had no presence was Everett's youngest son. He didn't work in the company or have any shares. Anyway, he spent his days leading a luxurious life and not doing decent work, and no one minded it.
So, there were too many twists and turns in this big family.
After finishing the meal, the family sat together, seemingly harmonious but distant, chatting about various topics.
Francis sat alone on the side, not participating in their conversation. He smiled and waved at Oscar.
Oscar looked at him warily. Perhaps he smiled too kindly, so Oscar became bolder and walked towards Francis.
"What are you doing?" Oscar stared straight at him.
Francis glanced at the toy gun in his hand and smiled. "You're so good at playing. Can you teach me how to play?"
Oscar blinked his eyes, and his little face instantly became proud.
"You're really dumb, not even knowing how to play this. Let me teach you..."
In all seriousness, Oscar naively explained to him how to play with the toy gun, and Francis maintained his smile, listening attentively.
"Let me try." Francis took the toy gun from his hand, and Oscar generously handed it over.
"Like this?" Francis pulled the trigger and aimed the barrel at Oscar with a faint smile.
When Oscar was stunned, he pulled the trigger.
