Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law

Chapter 826 - 824: The Decision to Confide (1)

Joseph Colson laughed wildly, like a madman unleashed, the pleasure of trampling on his brother's dignity making him forget his own status.

"These days, how come there are lunatics everywhere? Lunatics even run to the streets to make a spectacle of themselves. Aren't they afraid of scaring people to death? If they do scare someone to death, it would be a sin."

Passersby stopped in their tracks, puzzled by the scene.

Among the onlookers was a pair of twins particularly striking, with delicate features and red lips, around the age of ten.

"And with such an arrogant demeanor, clearly a madman, yet still so proud. Big brother, I seriously suspect he's the number one patient escaped from the mental hospital."

Barnes Ruiz continued from where Christopher Ruiz had just spoken.

Upon learning late last night that their sister would be fine, this morning, Hansen Ruiz arranged for a rarely used private plane to send these twins back to A City, because Mrs. Ruiz missed her grandchildren dearly.

The two brothers, unable to stay still, would run outside even after returning to the Ruiz Family. Unexpectedly witnessing this scene, they couldn't resist getting involved.

Joseph Colson's cold eyes swept over the crowd, stopping on the two young masters of the Ruiz Family.

Christopher Ruiz and his brother had always lived in T City, only returning to A City during holidays to visit their grandparents. The upper class society in A City knew very little about the two brothers, and those not closely acquainted with the Ruiz Family didn't even recognize these two little devils. Joseph Colson's relationship with the Ruiz Family was only superficial, so naturally, he didn't recognize these two little demons.

He stood in front of Barnes Ruiz, looking down at him coldly, asking, "Kid, who are you calling a madman?"

Barnes Ruiz crossed his arms, turned his head slightly, and raised his chin, having no intention of answering Joseph Colson, his expression as arrogant as it could be.

"Brat, I'm talking to you."

Joseph Colson had never endured such disrespect. The other party was just a ten-year-old kid, yet so arrogant, ignoring him, even daring to call him a madman. With his status, people lowered their heads when he passed in A City. Who would dare to face him with such arrogance?

"Barnes, we don't understand what madmen say, let's go." Christopher Ruiz smiled gently, tugging at his brother's arm, the two of them turned to leave as if no one was around.

After a few steps, as if suddenly remembering something, Barnes Ruiz turned back, grabbing Charles Colson, whose face was pale and eyes fixed on the box of food on the ground, and said, "You look quite strong, come home with us, train a bit, and be my precious sister's bodyguard."

"Stop!"

Joseph Colson's voice was low as he barked, trying to stop the young masters from taking Charles Colson away.

Christopher Ruiz pulled Barnes Ruiz, and Barnes Ruiz held the now somewhat dazed Charles Colson, continuing to walk without stopping, making passersby think these two kids had a lot of nerve. Joseph's face was black with anger, as he was about to have the bodyguards stop them, he saw a middle-aged man he recognized rushing over.

The middle-aged man hurried over and stopped in front of Christopher and Barnes Ruiz, his face covered in sweat from fear and running too fast.

"Young masters, what are you doing here? You scared Uncle Floyd to death." Floyd Thomas complained as he wiped his sweat. Although the three young masters of the Ruiz Family were all married and had children, the second and third young masters only had daughters, so the only grandchildren in the Ruiz Family now were these twins. If they were lost, even as a trusted old guard of the Ruiz Family, he wouldn't have enough lives for the eldest young master to spare.

He had brought the young masters out shopping, and as soon as they got out of the car, they disappeared, giving him a cold sweat.

"Uncle Floyd, we came to see the madman. Now that we're done, let's go home." Christopher Ruiz smiled faintly, then bypassed Floyd Thomas, dragging his brother and Charles Colson towards a car parked in the distance.

Joseph Colson's eyes were deep; he knew Floyd Thomas because Floyd was the personal bodyguard of Mrs. Ruiz, having been with her for over a decade, holding a bit of status within the Ruiz Family.

Floyd Thomas called those two kids young masters. Could they be the children of the eldest young master of the Ruiz Family? Rumor had it that the eldest young master of the Ruiz Family had a pair of twins. No wonder they were completely unafraid of him.

Realizing the identities of Christopher and Barnes Ruiz, Joseph Colson no longer tried to stop them. Although the twins were very young, he saw defiance in their eyes. Even if he tried to stop them, they would ignore him, and there was nothing he could do. He couldn't go against the Ruiz Family just to humiliate his brother.

Hansen Ruiz, that smiling tiger, he couldn't provoke.

Floyd Thomas saw the young masters taking Charles Colson with them. He wanted to say something, but in the end, said nothing.

Christopher and Barnes Ruiz took Charles Colson back to the Ruiz Family. The Colson Family was the second largest wealthy family, and Charles was the second young master of the Colson Family. Having mingled in high society for decades, Mrs. Ruiz naturally recognized Charles Colson, and was surprised to see her two precious grandsons bring Charles home.

The changes within the Colson Family were already known to Mrs. Ruiz.

She felt Joseph Colson was going too far. Even though Joseph's mother's marriage broke due to the appearance of Charles's mother over ten years ago, it had nothing to do with Charles, who was innocent. Now that both of their parents were gone, kicking his brother out of the family was one thing, but using tricks to torment and humiliate him was too much. However, that was the Colson family's business, and she didn't want to interfere.

The entire upper class society in A City adopted a spectator stance towards Joseph Colson's actions, thinking, like Mrs. Ruiz did, that it was another family's business and didn't concern them.

After Charles Colson was fed, Mrs. Ruiz let him go. Surprisingly, the two young masters were unwilling, insisting on taking him in. Looking around A City, only the Ruiz Family dared to take in Charles Colson, so Mrs. Ruiz had no choice but to agree.

Charles Colson was taken in by the Christopher and Barnes Ruiz.

Though it was only a day's time, it let Charles experience the warmth and coldness of people.

His heart ached – it ached deeply. Initially taken in, he spent all day in a daze, not speaking. Christopher and Barnes Ruiz didn't bother him, letting him stay lost in thought.

Later, after a talk with Mrs. Ruiz, he came to.

He began following the young masters, playing the role of their elder brother, playing with them, making mischief with them, though he still didn't talk much and didn't enjoy speaking.

His mentality had changed, his status had changed, leaving him silent, only silent.

Since Charles was taken in by the two young masters of the Ruiz Family, Joseph Colson privately sought out Matthew Ruiz. Matthew, being kind-hearted and sympathizing with Charles, did not see Joseph. Joseph could only approach Mrs. Ruiz, indirectly hoping she would no longer take in Charles, as he didn't want to become enemies with the Ruiz Family.

Mrs. Ruiz, being strong-willed, replied directly that anyone her grandsons picked up, whoever dared touch them would be seen as an enemy of the Ruiz Family, leaving Joseph green with anger.
