Chapter 71
It was a beautiful afternoon, which happened to be the day of a special gala event. Derrick and his wife Bella were meant to attend, but other family members in the likes of Cecilia, Caiden, Grandpa Fredrick and other relatives also attended.The event had brought together many of the most important business people, politicians, investors, and famous celebrities in the city.Large crystal chandeliers had lit up the huge auditorium, making the whole place shine brightly. Soft classical music was playing quietly through hidden speakers around the hall.The guests greeted one another and exchanged business cards as they talked. Meanwhile, waiters were moving smoothly and carefully between the tables, serving people without disturbing the atmosphere.At the center of the audience, Derrick sat down, with Bella by his side, trying to understand everything happening around him. On the other side of the hall, Caiden and Cecilia were also seated. Grandpa Fredrick and other relatives were pres

Derrick stood a few steps away, still breathing heavily from the struggle. His chest rose and fell quickly, and his jaw stayed tight as he held back words that kept pushing to come out.The guards stepped back after Caiden’s command, but did not go far. They stayed further down the corridor, alert and careful not to interfere again.Caiden, however, looked calm and composed.And he straightened his jacket slightly, as if the fight was only a small inconvenience. Then he looked directly at Derrick.He was not looking at him with anger or hostility, but with something far worse. It showed complete control, as if he already owned the situation.“You heard what I said earlier. I demand an apology from you, a public one, after all the chaos you caused.” Caiden warned Derrick.Derrick moved one step forward and spoke.“I won’t do that after you make me look like a fool in front of everyone. You can’t humiliate me like that and still expect me to publicly apologize to you and your wife.”Tho

Derrick stood directly in front of Caiden, his entire body stiff with anger. Every muscle in him seemed tense.He clenched his jaw so hard that the veins along his neck became visible. The tension between them was impossible to ignore, and before long, several guests nearby began to gather around, curious about the confrontation and sensing that something serious was about to happen.“What exactly did you just say to me?” Derrick demanded, his voice was filled with rage.Despite the hostility coming from Derrick, Caiden remained calm and composed. He did not step back or allow Derrick’s anger to affect him.“I said that what happened showed who you really are,” Caiden replied steadily.“And maybe instead of getting angry, you should apologize to your wife. What you did was completely unacceptable.”Caiden’s words only made Derrick even angrier. Rather than calming him down.“Apologize?” he snapped. “You really think I’m going to apologize to anyone?”His voice rang through the entranc

Grandpa Fredrick was in his study room when Derrick called, and after that everything else wasn’t the same again.Even through the screen, he could still feel the tension, the way Derrick was shocked about his accounts, and even with Bella’s reaction could tell it.Derrick’s call earlier that evening had shaken him more than he cared to admit. His son's Inlaw account had been restricted due to the family crisis that happened.Millions of dollars disappeared from his account overnight. Business deals came to a halt, his Bitcoin account vanished, and several important contacts could no longer be reached.It was not just about the money. The real issue was that Caiden, Derrick’s brother-in-law, was responsible for it.The attack felt like a warning and a message directed at every member of the family, especially the ones that looked down on Caiden.And everyone knew exactly who had done it.That was why he called for an emergency meeting that night.“I need to know what this Caiden is re

Grandpa Frederick remained seated alone in his living room for a long time after the Zoom meeting had ended.The laptop screen had already turned black, and the voices of his family members had completely disappeared from the room.Everything had become quiet again, but the embarrassment and humiliation he had felt still stayed with him.He placed his hand on the armrests of his chair as he sat there in silence. From the outside, he was looking calm, but deep inside, his chest was still boiling with anger.Throughout his entire life, nobody had ever treated him with such disrespect.He had always been respected by those around him, especially his family. But Caiden had humiliated him in a way he had never experienced before, and he wasn’t going to let that slide.Caiden had suddenly appeared during their private family meeting and openly mocked them. He had exposed their fears without hesitation and disappeared before anyone could react.It had been outrageous and completely unaccepta

After stabilizing Grandpa Frederick’s condition, he was laid on the emergency room bed, his face was still looking drained and pale.What was just a minor heart attack had rapidly escalated into a critical situation that demanded immediate medical attention.Standing beside the bed, Caiden stayed focused and watched how he was responding to the treatment, while his wife, Cecilia, had already arrived at the hospital.He was standing with his assistant when he noticed Fredrick's heart was racing fast.Frederick’s heart was under enormous strain. One wrong move could push the old man over the edge.At that moment, Ian hurried into the room.“Doctor Caiden.” He called Caiden, it was only an emergency situation that would make him rush to the senior doctor that way.“What is it?” He asked.“We need to inform the family.”Caiden didn’t even need to ask which family.It was Fredrick’s own, the very people he despised.His eyes hardened. “Call Derrick and Bella.”Ian blinked.“You mean them s

The emergency landing felt like a terrible nightmare that would not end.Derrick walked back and forth beside the private jet while the medical team hurried around Grandpa Frederick. The old man’s condition became worse during the flight. Caiden had already warned them not to move him, but they refused to listen.What began as simple nausea quickly turned into severe vomiting, leaving everyone frightened. Before long, he started vomiting blood.Bella stood nearby with tears running down her face.“This is all wrong,” she said softly. “He was perfectly fine before.”The private doctor they hired did everything he could to help, but even he looked worried.“We need to take him to a hospital right away,” he said.As soon as the aircraft landed, ambulances were already waiting nearby.Grandpa Frederick was placed on a stretcher and quickly taken to the emergency room.Derrick stayed close behind, his heart was pounding rapidly in his chest.The moment they arrived at the hospital, he pull

The situation inside Caiden Howard’s private office at Howard Hospital had felt so intense that it almost seemed physical, as though the environment had turned into a boxing center.The glass walls, which normally gave the office a calm and professional atmosphere, had now felt more like a trap. They had seemed to close everything in, holding back anger and embarrassment.Derrick had been standing in the middle of the room, still boiling with anger after the phone call he had just made. He hadn’t even tried to hide how pleased he was when he reported Caiden to his wife, Bella, carefully twisting the story to his advantage as though he had finally trapped his rival.But that satisfaction didn’t last long. Unknown to him, Caiden was already planning his own revenge while they were all gossiping about him right in his presence.Then, in a sudden move, Caiden stepped forward and grabbed Derrick by the wrist, pulling him sharply toward himself. It wasn’t chaotic or out of control. It was f

Derrick stood still in the middle of Caiden’s private office, but everything around him felt tense and uneasy.Outside the office, the hospital kept going as if nothing had happened. Cecilia’s phone was still recording him, and it felt like many eyes were watching him from far away.The office felt very tight and hard for him to breathe in.His jaw tightened in shame.Because he had seen this kind of thing before. And worse, he had been through it himself.Just a few days ago, the memory came back suddenly, clear and embarrassing. He saw himself again outside full of anger, not thinking clearly. His hand had moved before he could stop it, and he slapped Caiden when Caiden asked for a public apology.He also remembered Bella’s shocked face, the way she had moved forward like she couldn’t believe what she had just seen. How she tried to settle every chaos.That moment had been recorded and went viral, and now it made the current situation even worse.Including when he slapped his wife B

The emergency ward had been filled with tension and chaos when Caiden walked in.Monitors were beeping sharply, while nurses moved quickly in and out of the room with a hurry.The strong smell of antiseptic was still in the air like a warning sign that something serious had gone wrong.Grandpa Frederick arrived a while ago from the jet completely unconscious, but other doctors had taken over his care since Caiden was quite occupied with Cecilia.For a brief moment, even the most experienced nurses had exchanged silent glances, saying nothing out loud. His pulse was very weak, his breathing kept on coming uneven, and his skin was now turning so pale, that the situation had felt heavier than an ordinary emergency case.Caiden walked in carefully, completely without panicking, because he knew exactly what he was doing.He rolled up his sleeves as he crossed the sterile floor, eyes were already scanning the monitor readings.There was no hesitation in his movements, only the sharp focus
