Chapter 376: Hester Group Doom (5)

Not only was Earl Hester shocked, but Old Hester was also greatly shocked.

Does this stupid Archy intend to kill someone!?

Who?

Old Hester grabbed Archy’s collar and forced him to look up.

"You bastard! Who is your target?"

Archy Hester was shocked.

Grandpa doesn’t know? Damn it!!

He couldn’t believe he had just exposed his secret. He thought his grandfather knew he sent assassins to kill Oliver, but he was wrong. Instantly he wanted to slap himself for being too stupid.

"Speak!!" Old Hester’s roar was followed by a loud slap echoing through the room.

Old Hester’s hands were shaking with anger. His heart ached as if thousands of daggers had stabbed into his heart as he slapped his beloved grandson. He could tolerate all Archy’s faults except if he killed someone. And worse, what he did cause the Hester Group to go against the three business giants in the country and pressure Hester Group into the abyss. He would never forgive this stupid brat.

"G-Grandpa!?" Archy was taken aback when his grandpa’s hard slap landed on his face.

His body shook as his eyes met his grandfather’s murderous gaze. He could feel his heart shatter, feeling lost because this was the first time his grandfather had laid his hands on him.

Anger grew in Archy’s heart. The only person who had always protected him was now turning his back on him.

"You don’t want to say it?" Old Hester stood from his seat again and lifted his hand, ready to send out his powerful slap.

Archy’s gaze at Grandpa was no longer an annoyed look; Instead, it was filled with terror and fear.

"I, I will say... grandpa, please stop." Archy’s voice trembled, and his red eyes stared at the old man in front of him, who was now different from what he was used to, kind and gentle.

Archy continued, "I sent an assassin to kill my half brother...." He said this in a calm tone, with no sound of remorse whatsoever. As if what he was doing was normal.

Old Hester slumped in his chair. His legs were weak, unable to hold his body up, and her face became even redder as if his veins were about to burst.

With trembling hands, he pointed at Archy, kneeling before him, "Y-You... you useless trash! How can you send an assassin to kill your brother? Have you forgotten that the blood flowing in your body is the same as his blood?"

It felt like he wanted to strangle this damn kid’s neck. How could this kid be vicious toward his brother!?

Old Hester took a deep breath, trying to calm his heart—Even though he didn’t like Oliver Hester’s existence, he never thought of killing the child. He still didn’t understand how Archy could be this evil!?

Not only was Old Hester furious, but Earl Hester, who had been silent for a while, suddenly stood up from his chair, too shocked.

How dare Archy send an assassin to kill his firstborn?

Earl Hester’s face was completely red. He walked quickly and slapped Archy in the face before looking up at his father, with bloodshot eyes glaring at the old man.

"You cast out my first son from this family to raise this immoral child? Father, I am very disappointed in you."

Earl Hester pinched his brows while taking a deep breath to try to calm his raging emotions. "I always follow what you want. I’m willing to leave my wife and son to fulfill your wish. I also never interfered with you when you raised Archy! Father, now... I don’t care anymore, do whatever you want to do...."

Old Hester was shocked to see his gentle and kind son express his anger. This was the first time he had seen her explode like this. "Son..."

"Father..."

Earl’s voice slowly calmed down, but deep down in his heart, he was still mad. "Sorry, I no longer have the strength to do all of this. I will leave everything. Please take care of this company. As I said before, I will obey you if you don’t touch Oliver. I will follow whatever you ask. But now, you can’t even stop this kid from killing his brother!? That was far too much, and...sorry... I can’t tolerate it anymore." He left the room without another word, not even turning his head after his father shouted his name so many times.

Earl Hester’s biggest regret in his life was accepting his father’s wish. He wishes to leave his lover and child and follow his father to marry another woman for the sake of the Hester Group.

And he regrets it still.

If God had given him time to choose again, he would never have chosen this path. He would rather lose the Hester Group than leave his first wife and son. But now it’s too late. He can’t change the past. However, he would stop to continue this path. He would abandon everything and pursue another way.

"Earl, stop!!" Old Hester walked quickly after his son. He can’t lose him now. He needed him to solve the company’s problems. "Listen to me first."

Earl Hester stopped in his tracks as his father stood before him—blocking his path.

"What do you want?" he asked, annoyed, "don’t worry, even if I leave this family, I will not take your money. I give up my right as your heir." He paused for a moment to look at his father’s eyes, and with a gentle smile, he continued, "now, I don’t owe you anything..."

Slowly Earl Hester walked past his father towards the door...

"Son, I know I made a big mistake in the past. But, I never asked anyone to hurt her and her son, never. And what Archy did was purely his own doing, without me knowing it. Son, I promise you, I will punish Archy for going too far. I will give Oliver justice. Please, son... you have to trust me this time."

After listening to his father’s sincere words, Earl Hester’s cold heart melted slightly. As long as his father wasn’t implicated in Archy’s wrongdoing, he could be tolerant. But if his father were involved, he would never forgive him.

"Now! All we have to do is fix the situation. Could you arrange a meeting with Oliver?" asked Old Hester.

Earl Hester exhales deeply.

"Father, have you forgotten? This useless kid hired a killer to kill Oliver!" He turned to look at his father, "I don’t know if Oliver is still alive or not!!"

After saying that, Earl Hester continued on his step. He would find his son first and try to meet him. He hoped that his son would be willing to meet him.
