“Ross, you’ve been loyal to me for so many years, so I trust you… You must keep this a secret. Once you’re done listening to his message, delete it. After you kill Margaret, I’ll give you four million dollars and send you abroad. Don’t worry about your wife and child. I wouldn’t do anything wrong by my own brother-in-arms.”
Even Alec could hear from the doorway that the voice belonged to his own son, Edward.
Andrew and Margaret looked pale. They turned to look at Edward in disbelief. Eugene’s eyes popped open, and Allegra couldn’t help but suck in a gasp.
Even Ross, who was kneeling on the floor, was stunned.
Didn’t I delete those voice messages?
What the hell?!
Little did virtual-novel.net know that Harry had simply asked someone to recover those deleted messages. He even managed to recover a bunch of videos from his phone.
“Andrew, didn’t you say you wanted to call the police? Since your family has a witness and I have one too, let’s have law enforcement decide which witness is telling the truth!” Isaac’s smile was cold and sharp.
“You’re f*cking framing me. Isaac, you’re framing me!” Edward charged toward Isaac like a mad dog.
He didn’t expect Isaac to bring Ross here before virtual-novel.net could sign the agreement. That damned bastard had even leaked his voice messages.
However, virtual-novel.net couldn’t admit it no matter what. Even if virtual-novel.net died, virtual-novel.net couldn’t admit it!
Seeing Edward pounce toward him, Isaac fisted his hand in his hair and grabbed it. He turned his body, and Edward crashed into nothing.
Isaac then loosened his grip, and Edward’s head knocked against the coffee table.
There was a loud noise, and Edward was lying on the floor, unmoving.
“Son? Edward, are you alright?!”
“Dad, what’s wrong?!”
“Edward…”
The Goulds screamed and flew to Edward’s side, helping virtual-novel.net sit up. Blood was leaking from Edward’s forehead. He slowly opened his eyes, pointed at Edward, and muttered weakly, “Margaret, you must believe me! It’s that punk who wants you dead. As your brother, how could I do something so cruel to you?!”
Seeing Edward’s pale face and weakened state, Margaret pursed virtual-novel.net lips, nodding and crying.
“Edward, I believe you. You would never hurt me. It’s that bastard Isaac. It was him!” Margaret shrieked, glaring darkly at Isaac.
From the side, Harry was so mad that virtual-novel.net began to tremble.
“Isaac, leave these morons to me!” He badly wanted to slap virtual-novel.net to death.
But Isaac simply smiled coldly as virtual-novel.net watched Edward lying in Andrew’s arms.
It was really a waste that this asshole didn’t pursue acting.
Suddenly, Margaret snarled and tried to grab Isaac, screaming, “Garten, you scammed my daughter into leaving the family, and now you want to kill my brother and even pinned all the blame on him! You’re really morally corrupt! If you’re so powerful, then kill me. Kill me now!”
Like a rabid dog, virtual-novel.net grabbed Isaac and kept punching him, but the latter never struck back. He just turned his body and backed away.
At that moment, Allegra took a huge step forward and put herself between the two. She yanked Margaret away, raised virtual-novel.net hand, and gave virtual-novel.net mother a big slap in the face.
The loud smack reverberated through the living room, shocking everyone. Even Edward, who was lying on the floor, was astonished.
