Chapter 1424: Chapter 776: Betrayal Chapter 1424: Chapter 776: Betrayal He slowly began to speak, his voice low and powerful, as if each sentence was infused with the sediment of years and endless wisdom: “Hmph, no progress at all, still waiting for this old man to come up with ideas for you. Oliver, when will you learn to make decisions on your own and take responsibility on your own? Look at you, already standing in this position, yet still always depending on others, how can this be acceptable?”

Upon hearing this, Oliver felt a chill in his heart. Standing in front of his ancestor, he felt an invisible pressure mounting on his shoulders like a heavy mountain. He knew that his ancestor was not only reprimanding him but also reminding him that as the future successor of the Wright Family, he must learn to be independent and responsible.

He lowered his head, silent for a moment, with mixed feelings in his heart. Oliver remembered his past, those moments of dependence on others and lack of decisiveness, flashing through his mind like scenes from a movie. He was well aware that he indeed needed to change and to grow.

Finally, he raised his head, a determined look flashing in his eyes. He looked at his ancestor’s hopeful eyes, took a deep breath, and said, “Old Master Wright, I understand. I get what you mean, and I also understand the responsibilities on my shoulders. With this matter, I will investigate carefully, I won’t make any rash conclusions, nor will I wrongly blame anyone. I will prove with my actions that I have grown up, no longer the Oliver who always needs to depend on others.”

Old Master Wright heard this, a slight smile playing on the corners of his mouth, a glimmer of approval in his eyes. He patted Oliver on the shoulder, speaking earnestly, “Oliver, do you know? Growth is not an easy thing. It requires courage, persistence, and even more so, wisdom. You must learn to face difficulties, learn to take responsibility, learn to stand tall amidst adversity. I believe in you, you have the potential and the ability.”

Feeling the encouragement and support from Old Master Wright, a warmth surged in Oliver’s heart. He nodded firmly and said, “Old Master Wright, rest assured. I will work hard to lead the Wright Family to an even more glorious future. I will prove my determination and ability with my actions.”

Having said that, he turned and walked towards the study, ready to begin his investigation into the affair. His steps were firm and strong, as if every step tread on the path of growth. Old Master Wright stood in the same spot, watching Oliver’s receding figure, his eyes full of expectation and hope.

Oliver entered the study and began to carefully go through the relevant documents and materials. As he read, he pondered over the ins and outs of the matter. His brow would sometimes furrow and at other times relax, showing the struggle and thought in his heart. He knew this affair was not a simple one, but he also believed that if he put his heart into it, he would be able to find the truth.

As time ticked by, Oliver remained engrossed in his investigation. He forgot the passage of time and all external distractions. In his heart, there was only one belief – to find the truth and restore innocence to the Wright Family. During this process, he also gradually learned to think independently and to take responsibility.

Suddenly, a critical clue caught his eye. Following this lead, he continued to probe and gradually uncovered the truth of the affair. It turned out that everything was a misunderstanding, a deliberate framing of the Wright Family. A surge of anger and resentment welled up in Oliver’s heart, but he knew now was not the time for impulsive actions.

He took a deep breath to calm his emotions and then picked up a pen to start writing a detailed report. He intended to reveal the truth to everyone, letting all know of the Wright Family’s innocence and unimpeachable character. At the same time, he wanted to demonstrate through this event his growth and responsibility…

Old Master Wright looked at Oliver, a hint of relief in his eyes. He knew Oliver was young but possessed a brave and steadfast heart. He believed that given enough time and space, Oliver would certainly grow into a true Strong One and the pride of the Wright Family.

“Good, I look forward to seeing your performance,” Old Master Wright nodded with a tone full of expectation and encouragement. His gaze was filled with trust for Oliver, as though he could already see the day when everything would be resolved satisfactorily. Then, he turned to Logan, his eyes flashing with complexity, which quickly turned into firmness: “Young Master Logan, this matter is somewhat complicated, I hope you can understand. The Wright Family has always acted honorably and would never do anything against morals. However, I believe you are a reasonable person, and will not have any misunderstandings towards the Wright Family because of this.”

Upon hearing this, Logan felt warmth in his heart and deeply sensed the sincerity and fairness of Old Master Wright. He knew that it was precious for Old Master Wright to stand up and speak for him, to give him a fair chance at this crucial moment. He nodded, his tone full of gratitude and determination: “Old Master Wright, rest assured. I have a longstanding relationship with the Wright Family and am well aware of its fairness and wisdom. I believe that the truth will eventually come to light, clear for all to see. I will cooperate fully with the investigation by the Wright Family until the truth is completely revealed.”

Old Master Wright nodded with relief and then looked at Oliver, his gaze strong and profound, as if he could see through to one’s heart: “I know what you’re thinking, Oliver. You’re worried that Little Friend Roshe might be involved in this affair, but I can tell you categorically, he has absolutely nothing to do with it. I am willing to stake my reputation on it, and I trust in his character. He is not someone who would engage in underhanded actions, of this I am certain.”
