Chapter 697
“Oh, you can make a joke of your situation so soon. How dare you just sit back there and let me poison you as some sort of twisted self-punishment? How am I even supposed to go in and take over knowing that I had practically murdered my own grandfather?!”Benjamin didn't hold back in scolding his grandfather as he held the old man's hand tightly, but hit him with his human strength. His other hand balled into a fist and placed on Hunter's chest, along with Benjamin's head as he cried heavily.“What if those antagonizing elders find out that I was somehow responsible for your death, huh?! I would have been charged with murder! They wouldn't have hesitated in tagging me as a usurper who needs to be locked away forever! Then what would have been the gain of passively watching your own grandson take your life, huh?”“Jeez! You're so cruel, Grandpa! Don't you ever repeat what happened today! How would I even begin to explain your death to my grandma, huh?!”Hunter had tears falling down th

Chapter 696
General Lewis Titus caught him off guard as he retorted through sobs.“Shut up, Herbert! I'm not a fucking weakling! And fuck whoever sees me crying! I'd like to see who dares make fun of me to my face!”After those words, he slowly brought Herbert back down to his feet.Herbert maintained that smile as he reached out to wipe away General Lewis's tears.“Sure, whatever you say. I'm sorry, Lewis. The patriarch and I couldn't bear forcing you to follow us into death, not when it can be avoided. Plus, if all three of us left this world, who would be left behind to help the heir apparent transition smoothly into his role as the new patriarch, huh?”General Lewis Titus chuckled as he lowered his head, allowing Herbert to wipe away the tears without the slightest hesitation. “It definitely can't be those elders. We already know that half of fucking council has a one-sided beef with Master Benjamin. As for the other half, we definitely can't fully trust them. Otherwise, the prime estate wo

General Titus wanted to immediately scold Benjamin, even though he is the heir apparent of the Whiteridge family. To him, the patriarch's well-being will always come before the recognition of any power.But then, he held back his tongue as a realization crossed his mind. He spoke with a dark but calm tone, eyes sharply reading the young man.“You're usually very aware of yourself and your surroundings, Master Benjamin. What caused you to lose control to such an extent that you didn't even realize that your grandfather was being affected?”Prime Butler Herbert McKlin was the one to reply calmly.“Lewis, he knows the truth about the deaths of Master Dallas and Madam Caroline.”General Titus's back stiffened when he heard those words and he whipped his head to face Herbert with a horrified expression before turning back to face Benjamin.“Oh.”There was nothing to say at that point, and it made Benjamin’s heart shudder in coldness.Once the doctors were done, they confirmed that the pat

Hearing those words, Benjamin had to calm down.“Then why don't you explain things to me clearly, Prime Butler McKlin. Clearly, you know him more than I do.”Herbert could hear the sarcasm in Benjamin's voice but he ignored it, nodding his head firmly.“Great Master Hunter was conflicted, more so than you can only ever imagine until the day you become a parent yourself. There are some decisions that would leave a caring parent crippled morally, no matter how much they've always adhered to the rules and regulations they enforce themselves.”Herbert stood with his hands behind his back.“Haven't you noticed the pattern between mother and son yet, Sir?”That question seemed to jolt Benjamin out of his thoughts. He realized that Prime Butler Herbert McKlin was referring to both Hunter and his mother. Two generations of supreme leaders had ended up making the same lapse in judgment due to the same circumstances, rolled out in different identities.The matriarch at the time found it very h
