Striking back (2)

Harry looked at Joanne, and said "When I left the family, I swore that I wanted nothing to do with the feud, but your great-grandmother, my grandmother's death about twelve months after I left drew me back for the funeral.  I remember my father talking about hoe the only son he thought had any real ability within the Gong family had left and commenting how they deserved it.  It only sticks in my mind because of how my father gloated about the situation.  I just felt it was disgusting behaviour."

Stephen asked, "Do you know why he left?"

"No, and I really do not care because I left my family and all those feuds long ago.  I created my own empire by my own hard work, often in the face of the actions of my father to attempt to force me to do what he wanted.  And you know, I still want nothing to do with it."
