Lady Inayah Comes With Gifts (Part-2)

Chapter 796

Alexander felt quite a bit enlightened by Pythos's colorful story.

It went to show how even a greatly learned person could possess major flaws in their character.

Pythos himself revealed that his gambling habit had caused the relationship between all his family members to become strained at best, as most were not even on talking terms with him.

He had not seen many of his children in close to a decade, forget the grandkids.

And towards this abandonment, the man surprisingly had little hate, only blaming himself for this outcome.

According to him, this was his due payment, since in his earlier years, when he was even more addicted, he had grossly neglected his wife and children.

The little ones would sleep without dinner almost regularly, while his own wife had died back then of a relatively minor disease due to a lack of medicine because he spent all his money in those gambling dens.
