Chapter 803 – Williams’ Disappointment
*****Feeling the suffocating aura radiating from the old man toward herself, Susan’s throat tightened, and for a second, she nearly swallowed her words back, her instinct telling her to stay silent and not provoke him.But then she thought of Grace... her daughter, and forced herself to stand taller. Her voice shook, but she managed to press on.“Father… I… I don’t think it’s right to hold this meeting without the person at the center of it. Please… allow me to call her. At least confirm where she is, and if she’s well.”“Nonsense!” a voice suddenly barked, startling everyone.Every head instantly snapped toward the source, and all eyes landed on Mason.He was currently glaring at Susan… his aunt, with eyes blazing with hostility, nothing in his posture suggesting respect.If anything, he looked at her as though she were an underpaid servant daring to question his authority.“We’ve waited more than six hours already!” he barked, his voice thick with scorn. “And you still want
Chapter 802 – Nico and His Family’s Delight II
*****Before now, Nico and his family had hidden their true anxiety behind careless smirks and dismissive remarks, but underneath it all, they had been filled with unease. After all, ever since Grace married the ex-convict, she had proven more troublesome than expected.Yes, Xavier has been taken care of.... or so they believed. But the fear that Grace might have picked up some things from him still lingered... growing every time they recalled the incident at the company two days ago, which had shaken them.Grace had stood taller, spoken sharper, and carried herself with a confidence they had never thought possible.But now… all of that fear dissolved like mist under the sun.With the old patriarch’s approach, not only had the battlefield already turned in their favor even before the war had begun, but victory, as far as they were concerned… was already in their grasp.And thinking this, their tension broke into outright jubilation.Nico and Mason, who were sitting proudly at e
Chapter 801 – Nico and His Family’s Delight
*****At this moment, whether it was Williams and Susan or Nico and his family… every single person sat frozen in place, staring dazedly at the old patriarch as though their ears had betrayed them.It took them a while to truly digest what the patriarch had just said, and when comprehension finally settled on them, shock spread across every face.“This… you don’t mean it, Father?” Nico suddenly gasped, his voice breaking into disbelief, his eyes gleaming as though he had glimpsed a treasure chest lying open before him.But the old man didn’t so much as twitch.Instead, he continued sitting motionless, radiating an air of untouchable authority, his face seemingly carved from stone, showing not even the slightest tinge of expression.Nico, however, was completely far from disappointed. Instead, he directly took his father’s silence for agreement, and at that very instant, immeasurable thrill coursed through him, his heart pounding wildly.His lips twitched into a grin, his gaze d
Chapter 800 – Williams’s Indignation II
*****Williams’ jaw tightened until it ached. “Father, how could…” he began, his words grinding out through clenched teeth, his anger moving to the edge of eruption.But he never finished.A sudden jab caught his side, causing him to turn sharply, only to find Susan’s hand currently pressing against him, her eyes wide and glistening… not with tears, but with a desperate plea.She didn’t need to speak, and… he understood.'Don’t fight him and make this worse.'This was the silent message in her eyes. She wanted him to swallow the humiliation, bend again, and do what the patriarch demanded.This realization instantly made Williams’ fists clench so tight that his knuckles turned bone-white, every vein in his arms throbbing.His heart screamed ‘no’.Neither of them was in the wrong, and yet they were being forced to bow their heads to a spoiled child who had the audacity to play the victim.He fumed.It was revolting.In the past, he would have already apologized without hesit
Chapter 799 – Williams’s Indignation
*****Everyone suddenly went rigid, staring dazedly at the old man. Even Nico’s family, who had been so loud a moment ago… always believing that the old man would always pick their side and do their will, blinked in disbelief.The patriarch had just claimed he’d be turning a blind eye to Williams’ crime, which was… it was one of a kind.Everyone was too stunned to react, and just at that moment...“But let this be the final warning.” The old man continued, his voice still calm, indifferent, and cold. “Step out of line again, and you won’t like what follows.”Every jaw dropped to the ground, every mind stalling.“That was that.” The old man added, his voice almost sounding casual. But before anyone could breathe, he finished, calm and unhurried. “Now… you should apologize to the child.”The room froze in stunned silence.Nico and his family blinked, briefly thrown off-balance.Just now, like Williams and Susan, they had thought something was wrong with the old man; after all,
Chapter 798 – Williams and Susan’s Disbelief
*****The couple snapped their heads toward the sound, and sure enough, it came from Honey.At this moment, she was staring at the elderly patriarch with wide, tearful eyes, pouting like a spoiled brat begging for candy.Her act was so exaggerated that she looked more like a parody than an actual victim. But still, her family watched her with absolute seriousness… as though her theatrics were so outstanding that she deserved applauseAnd seeing this, Williams and Susan exchanged a stunned look before Susan turned her dumbfounded gaze back to Honey.“Mental and emotional damage?” she blurted, her voice trembling between outrage and disbelief. “Even when you were the one who cursed your cousin and wished her evil?”The words left her mouth before she could stop herself, her incredulity too sharp to contain.But just at that moment…“What?!” Honey’s mother snapped back, her eyes suddenly narrowing into frosty slits.She leaned forward, glaring fiercely at Susan, her hands plante
