Alaric quickly rushed to the sixth floor, lightened his footsteps, and carefully entered the lock code.
Then, he grabbed the door handle and pushed it open. He jumped in and shouted, "Who's eating and drinking in my house?"
In the next second, both parties were stunned by what they saw.
"Alaric?"
"Brandon?"
Alaric held his head and screamed, "Oh my god, am I dreaming? How come you are here?"
He then jumped and shrieked at being fully stupefied.
Five minutes later, Alaric finally calmed down.
Brandon told Alaric exactly what he had told Athena.
Alaric thought the whole story was dubious. "Brandon, it's not a big deal that your luggage was robbed and you don't have any money on you. Why are you being so secretive and hiding yourself? What you're doing makes our family seem very snobbish and greedy. It's as if our family doesn't want you if you don't have money."
Brandon smiled bitterly. "I've been overseas for almost four years. My mentality has definitely changed. You know, I'm just anxious. Just give me some time."
Alaric said, "But Christmas is in about ten days. Don't tell me you're not going home for Christmas?"
"I'm surely going go back for Christmas," Brandon replied.
Alaric kept patting his own head and pacing around the room. "Oh my god, if Mom finds out that you haven't contacted home after being back for so long, she'll be sad."
"That's why I need your understanding and help." Brandon tried his best to persuade Alaric to keep it a secret from the family.
Alaric said with reddened eyes, "Brandon, you're in such a pitiful situation. You go out early and come back late every day, brave the cold wind to deliver food for more than ten hours, and can only make less than a hundred dollars a day. You're even looked down on by others. It hurts to see you like this.
"Look at how thin you've become. Those who don't know the full story will think that our family is abusing you."
Brandon gritted his teeth. 'Right. This little guy who only knew to follow me around and begged me to help him do his homework when he was a kid dared to pity me and sympathize with me now. He must be looking for a beating.'
After Alaric finished bleating, he wrapped his arms around Brandon's neck. "Brandon, although I'm still a student and don't have much money on me, the club gives me roughly a thousand dollars every month as my living expenses. I've saved up a little. Let me donate it all to you."
Brandon rolled his eyes in silence.
He resisted the urge to hit Alaric. "Don't worry about it. No matter how poor I am, I don't need my younger brother, who's still studying, to support me."
Alaric threatened him, "If you don't accept the money and let yourself continue to live dreadfully, I'll tell Mom and Dad about what's going on here."
Brandon was speechless for a few seconds before he blurted, "Alright, I'll accept it."
Alaric scanned Brandon's QR code and transferred him one thousand dollars. The former even said earnestly, "Brandon, use this money to buy some nice gifts for Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, Maria, and Josie. This way, you can save face."
Brandon didn't know how to retort.
He was initially moved by Alaric's words and actions, but it quickly turned into an impulse to beat the latter up.
Alaric wasn't a very sensitive person, and he became chirpy again pretty much the next second. He tugged Brandon but the arm and sat down next to the latter. "Brandon, tell me. How have you been overseas for the past few years?
"Is your professor nice to you? Have you got a girlfriend? Are the natives over there easy to get along with?"
Then, he grabbed the door handle and pushed it open. He jumped in and shouted, "Who's eating and drinking in my house?"
