Chapter 223: The Reason She’s Special
Peter Kastello was not happy to see Leander not caring about his brother. He even let his wife attack his brother, turning him into a laughingstock among his peers.
Somehow the video of Evander getting brutally hit by a woman circulated everywhere and became a trending topic since no one was trying to stop it. No one knew it was his sister-in-law because the woman’s face was blurred.
Peter Kastello who was not savvy in the matters of the interweb had to be informed by some of his well-wishers about this issue. He had to call for Leander, again. These days Leander only comes to the Rose Garden if only he was forced to be there.
Otherwise, he chooses to stay in Orchid Gardens.
When Peter asked Leander why he isn’t doing what he was supposed to do, Leander only scoffed. "I’m not the underboss anymore," he shrugged. "It’s not my job."
"Who blurred your wife then?" Peter asked banging the table. Leander’s don’t care attitude pissed him off. How much more whipped can a man get?
"It was I," Leander answered. "I must protect my wife." That was the truth.
Even Barnabas looked stunned by Leander’s answer.
Peter was lost for words. He coughed leaning on the table visibly shaken by the attitude of his grandson.
"Evander tried to assault my wife. She stopped him. Should she have allowed him to do whatever to her?" Leander asked. "Grandpa, why am I the one explaining when it was Evander who sinned? Was he questioned?" he asked.
This time he spoke softly trying to appeal to his grandfather’s emotions. Peter did calm down as he said that. Leander saw his grandfather looking so disheartened and felt bad for ruining his peace. But he needed to do this.
Just then, the door opened, and in came his mother. Peter sat in his chair silently. Barnabas waited to see what happens.
