Chapter 418 You Have No Right
The meeting ended successfully,
at least for Alec. Mortimer sat across from him, looking confused about how things had turned out. Alec sneered to himself, not caring about Mortimer’s confusion. He got up to leave, but before he did, he needed to make a statement: he was breaking up with Natalia.
The relationship they had was just a pretend collaboration to make Mortimer let his guard down while Natalia could stop her parents from matchmaking her. Now that Mortimer was no longer the chairman, Alec didn’t need to pretend anymore, and he had to explain it clearly to Jenny. novelbin
“Why did you
do this?” Mortimer couldn’t hold his tongue and asked as Alec was about to leave. “I don’t understand. I’m your father. Why are you opposed to me being the chairman?”
Alec found Mortimer’s question amusing and looked down at him, saying, “Why? You should ask yourself what you have done.”
Mortimer asked, “Do you still hate me?”
Alec grinned, then fixed his eyes on Mortimer. “Don’t you deserve it?”
Mortimer’s expression changed slightly. He stared at Alec for a moment, as if he was thinking of something. Then he said, “Is it because of Jenny?”
Mortimer believed that Alec hated him deeply, but he probably wouldn’t go to such lengths if it wasn’t for Jenny. He thought that if he continued to be the chairman, he would have the power to harm Jenny at any time, so Alec couldn’t let him continue.
Alec did not deny it.
Mortimer let out an angry chuckle, stood up, and glared at Alec. “I forced you to break up with her for your own good. That woman has absolutely nothing, what help would she be of to you?” Instead of growing angry, Alec laughed aloud, finding Mortimer extremely ridiculous for saying that to him when he had abandoned his wife for a married woman.
“When you left with that woman, was it because she could help you?”
Hearing that, Mortimer was so angry that he raised his hand to slap Alec.
Alec was quick to react. He grabbed Mortimer’s wrist and slammed it away. “If you want to live a long peaceful life, just keep your mouth shut. Otherwise, don’t blame me for the consequences!* Alec felt that he had been kind enough. As long as Mortimer did not appear in front of him, he would not seek revenge from him. Mortimer had killed Alec’s mother, but Alec knew killing him would not bring back his mother.
“That being the case, it is best for us not to meet each other.”
“I never thought that your mother would-”
“Shut up!” Furious, Alec punched Mortimer in the face. “You have no right to even speak of her! You and that bitch killed her. Don’t you dare think that I’ve forgotten what happened! I won’t hem you because I promised Grandpa that I won’t cause him to lose his son at such an old age.
long as he’s alive, I won’t lay a finger on you. You’d better pray that Grandpa lives longer.”
After saying that, Alec left without looking back.
Meanwhile, Mortimer remained on the ground, watching Alec’s retreating figure. His gaze was cold and unreadable.
