I Gave Up Being Stronger - Chapter 304

Lost in his memories, Brick reminisced with a wistful expression. “Back then, we were truly splendid and adorable, Sir Chul-Soo. The sunlight that shone down on us, the sparkling brook!”

“So, you’re saying that Neilson was a genius, right?” Cha Jin-Hyeok asked.

“Of course, Sir Chul-Soo. Even at a young age, Neilson was recognized for his craftsmanship and skills. He was hailed as a prodigy.” Neilson’s talent was so exceptional that many families eyed him for adoption.

“Neilson’s mother wished for him to grow up in the most affluent environment possible.” One of Brick’s quirks was his tendency to veer off into unrelated tangents during a conversation. “By the way, Neilson’s dad cheated on Neilson’s mom when Neilson was just two years old. Shockingly, everyone knew this except for Neilson’s mom!”

With the poise of a seasoned Streamer, Jin-Hyeok smoothly steered the conversation back on track. It felt like practicing for a smooth interview. “What decision did Neilson’s mother make, wanting him to grow up in a wealthy environment?”

“She sent him to the Harkoen family!” Brick’s whiskers twitched. “The Harkoen Family expressed their eagerness to support Neilson. But on the day he was to head to the Harkoen mansion, he mysteriously disappeared.”

Brick clenched his tiny fist and continued, “Lady Harkoen was quite shameless, Sir Chul-Soo. While the Harkoen Family was not directly responsible for Neilson’s disappearance, they said they felt morally obligated and handed over thirty million Dias to Neilson’s mother.”

“…”

“But what’s even more absurd is that the money was taken by Neilson’s bastard father, using his biological parental rights as an excuse!”

“Did you kill him?”

“Not yet.”

Gradually, Jin-Hyeok was drawn into Brick’s story. What he thought would be a fairy-tale-like childhood story turned out to be a drama filled with sensational twists. He asked, “Why haven’t you killed his father?”

“Because Neilson disappeared! A scoundrel like that should be executed in front of Neilson. That’s true justice, Sir Chul-Soo. Besides, we have to consider the wishes of Neilson’s mother and Neilson himself. Oh, and by the way, Neilson’s mother has become mentally unstable after searching for Neilson for the past eighteen years, Sir Chul-Soo.”

“Hm…” Jin-Hyeok thought about the tragic fate of Neilson’s mother. Her husband ran away after cheating on her, her son went missing, the consolation money meant for his son was snatched by the husband, and now she was mentally unstable.

“I’m thinking of killing that bastard in the near future,” Brick said.

“Can I livestream it if the timing is right?”

“Of course!”

Jin-Hyeok nodded. ‘Wait… but what were we talking about? Ah, right, it was about Neilson.’
