Chapter 63 Family Grudges

• The tense atmosphere in the dining room was a cauldron, with emotions burning and churning beneath the surface. Sparks and embers of resentment danced around in the air as Liam and Isabelle as well as Victoria, Liam's mother had their eyes glued to their dinner, with the intent of not having a conversation that would be unfavorable.
• Victoria Callahan's greed was insatiable, her obsession for materialistic things was like a cancer eating away her humanity. When Liam's father was at the brink of losing every penny he had worked for all his life, she had left with no feeling of guilt, no turning back, unbothered about the reality that she had a little poor child to cater for, a child who needed her love and care at the most critical moment of his life. But her love for wealth was a corrupting influence that had led her to abandon her blood and flesh to the cold arms of loneliness thereby disrupting what was supposed to be, a proper upbringing.
• Liam's hatred for his mother knew no bounds but he had made an oath to his late father to treat every member of the Cahallan family right. That was the weapon that his supposed mother never hesitated to exploit.
