Even After Death by Lilting Champ

Wendell felt helpless.

He was seriously down on luck.

Instead of his son, he thought that he had found himself a bossy superior.

It was a heartfelt reunion after 30 years of separation, and yet the first thing Wayne talked about was an announcement about his marriage rather than expressing words of concern for his family.

If it were any ordinary woman, Wendell wouldn't have minded it.

But the person he insisted on marrying was none other than Olivia! She was a divorced woman with four kids! On top of that, Olivia's ex-husband was Wendell's nephew! The divorced couple was somewhat entangled with each other too.

Ethan and Wayne were both dear to him.

What should he do? Wendell was at his wit's end.

Ignoring Wendell's dilemma, Wayne handed him a cigarette.

But Wendell refused, "I quit it." Wayne lit a cigarette and squatted on the ground.

Instead of a ruler of a land, he appeared more like a construction worker.

Wendell massaged his forehead at that.

How had his son grown up to be like this? Wayne blew out a puff of smoke.
