Read Extra 2 of Lick me up if you can. There you see Ashley's point of view, he actually tried, but it wasn't the reaction Chase wanted and needed.
Koi, well they omitted Koi in the manhwa adaption of that chapter, because Koi was mentioned in a sentence in the novel going to Chase's room later, but you read it in more detail in Extra 2 of LMUIYC ( spoiler: it actually leads into Chase getting his first role as an actor). Stacy is also missing. Ah yes, and Koi is not allowed around the children ( you know, Koi comes alway first for Ashley), for his own safety. Actually, to really understand it you need to read that Extra.^^
And Chase has violet eyes in that flashback in the manhwa, the manhwa even left out in an earlier chapter why his eyes can't be violet in that chapter, so you don't even understand why he can feel emotions and the others not.:D. That chapter doesn't really help understanding the Millers. Doesn't change that they are crazy and that Chase suffered, but the manhwa didn't do a good job explaining the why.

Yes it’s called Lick Me If You Can.
Someone kindly made a post on instagram recently about the time line universe too for more information

I mean Ashley is not the best father, he can't feel emotions because of brain damage and his possessiveness of Koi, which makes him even jealous of his children and always puts Koi first. And him being paranoid that one of his children would turn out like Dominic.
But still the children were really problematic, and given their number. And he made sure that none became a killer or fired their brain because of pheromones accumulation.
But they certainly made mistakes. Since Chase was the only one of the AD siblings who manifested past puberty, they probably should have separated him from his siblings.
In in Grayson's story they became aware that they made mistakes.
But in this chapter he really tried, it was just not what Chase wanted and needed.

Yes, they let an under 10 years old child bake a cake.... .
But It was pretty obvious that Stacy was also involved, and Nathaniel just watched.
For the twins it was like an experiment, I don't think they really understood what it did to Koi.
But even before, Ashley tried to make Koi spend less time with the children. For example he gave Koi the opportunity to visit a lecture, Koi was into astronomy, but didn't have the chance to study and worked as a plumber. But the main reason why Ashley did it was so Koi would spend less time with the children, and it worked.
I mean Nathaniel wanted to go to a boarding school, so he won't be in the way of his parents... .
It was a mixture of several factors why that family ended so messsed up.
Too many children manifested too early (problems with emotions etc), too many children in general + an emotionless, but jealous (his love for Koi is the only emotion left) Ashley who was also parannoid that one of his children turns out like Dominic (Grayson), Koi who probably out of guilt went along with what Ashley wanted, and both didn't know how to handle the children the right way I guess.
I don’t think this is a spoiler just a thought after reading the novels at least the one before kiss me liar and this one.
I didn’t know Ashely was that cold to his kids… where the fuck is Connor their other dad.
