PART 80

Erland gasped when Bram threw him a slap in the face.

"If I could do it, I would have slapped you in front of those investors! How presumptuous of you to talk about your marriage to Briel in front of those investors!" Bram growled as he gripped Erland's suit.

"What's wrong? Did I lie to the investors?" Erland asked without physical resistance.

"You think you're great at claiming to be my son-in-law? Don't forget why you can be part of my family!" growled Bram.

"I will never forget, and you don't have to keep reminding me about it! I was just reflex because I felt something was not right with your decision," said Erland. He no longer call Bram's 'Dad' because, for some reason, Erland felt uncomfortable. Bram kept reminding him of his marital status with Briel. Even though Bram didn't remind him, Erland always remembered him.
