Chapter 397: Let's Wait and See
"I'm so disappointed! I devote myself to ZH Clan and Ninja for decades. They are going to be ruined by you!"
"I really regret raising you up!"
Emmett's eyes gradually turned red, but he became even more resolute and ruthless.
"Is that so? How could you be so heartless to your own son?"
"Father, I had a question since I was a child. Other fathers focus on the happiness and health of their children, while you do not. Why?"
"You have always regarded the growth of the Smith family as the most important thing. Have you ever paid attention to my emotional needs?"
"Ever since I was a child, even though I am your biological son, I have been like a machine. Under your high-pressure arrangement, I have become ruthless and powerful.
...
"Don't you think you lack basic humanity?"
Emmett stared at Atwood. In the end, fire of anger almost erupted from his eyes.
He had never experienced a trace of family warmth since he was young.
When his mother was alive, he was sent abroad by his father for various kinds of training and spent very little time with her.
After his mother passed away, he completely lost the comfort of his family. To Emmett, the word "father" represented dignity.
Whatever his father asked him to do, he had to follow obediently and accomplish the task to his father’s satisfaction
Atwood staggered backwards in shock.
His lips trembled as he nodded and said fiercely.
"I am heartless? If I am not heartless, can you be as strong as you are now?"
"If I weren't cruel to you, would you be able to control the world on your own?"
"What's the use of kinship? Can family affection give you the world or power?"
"If I had given you the so-called human nature, you would have been as weak as a dog now and hacked to death long ago!"
"I spent so much money, material resources, and effort to raise you. I have never expected that you will contradict me. "
Emmett smiled miserably and took a few steps back. His heart was broken.
Hearing what his father said, he felt even more pitiful.
Perhaps in his father's eyes, he was just a tool to help him accomplish the great cause of their family.
Kinship had long disappeared between them.
The more heartbroken Emmett was, the more charming and elegant the expression on his face became. He put on a cold but attractive smile. He was fiddling with his watch, full of a domineering aura.
"Father, you should be very gratified now."
...
"Look, under your arrangement, I have become the most powerful person."
"I can replace you now, so you can feel free to retire."
Emmett no longer intended to say anything more to Atwood. The more he said, the more pitiful he felt as his son.
Emmett shook his sleeve and glanced at Atwood.
After all, Atwood was old. The dominance and possessiveness he had when he was young had gradually faded away.
"It's getting late. It's time for me to go back. I still need to take Elaine to the hospital. Bye."
Lucas and his group were left dumbfounded. Emmett looked over and raised his head. Lucas and Oliver immediately understood and silently walked towards the prepared car.
A group of vigorous members of the ZH Clan followed behind Emmett respectfully. Someone had already opened the car door for Emmett.
Atwood looked at Emmett, who was domineering, and felt a bit sad. So he shouted hatefully.
"Emmett, let me repeat what I said before. Without my obstruction, you and Elaine can't be together either. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"
Emmett stopped and frowned slightly.
Why did he feel that Atwood's remark sounded so strange?
There must be a reason!
Was Atwood implying something?
Emmett did not turn around and said indifferently, "Alright, save your laughing for the end of the race. Jake, change all the guards of my father and serve him well."
Jake immediately understood. He lowered his head and replied, "Understood, Young Master."
Since Ninja had already been under his control his hands, Emmett had nothing to fear.
Now, it could be said that Atwood was just a figurehead now.
Emmett got into the car, and his subordinates immediately respectfully closed the door. Countless men got into other cars and drove away in convoy in a mighty manner.
Oliver and Lucas sat in the back row, watching Atwood slowly pass by.
Lucas sighed emotionally.
"Atwood is still strong. From the tone of his voice, he is as terrifying as a tiger. Fortunately, it was Emmett who confronted him. If I were to face him, my legs would immediately go limp from fear."
...
Oliver nodded. "Indeed. Atwood makes his fortune on gangland and possesses an imposing manner. When he roared just now, I was also quite frightened."
"But I admire Emmett even more. How formidable he is! Like father, like son. When they were fighting over there, I felt as if they were two lions."
"Emmett, like his father, was a very powerful person."
"However, Emmett is quite deep. He does everything secretly."
Oliver agreed and nodded.
"That's right! That makes sense!"
"For example, he secretly scored Elaine."
"So, it is impossible for me and him to compete fairly."
"He is too cunning and too scheming!"
"If we compete fairly, I might not lose to him!"
Lucas curled his lips and intended to discourage Oliver.
"Emmett is smart rather than cunning, okay?"
"Facing women and love, one has no need to abide by any rules."
"The end justifies the means."
"What's happened over there? What are so many people looking at?"
Lucas pointed at a group of people on the roadside.
Chinese people liked to watch the scene of bustle. It was always a great hobby for Chinese people.
Oliver looked outside out of boredom. After flicking a glance, he was thrown into shock.
"Stop!"
...
The driver suddenly stepped on the emergency brake in confusion, causing Lucas to smash his head into the back of the chair in front of him.
"You bastard, do you want to die? Why did you call for a stop?" Lucas cursed angrily.
"It's so hurt. I really want to dig out your eyes! My forehead hurts! Damn it. It's all your fault."
Without even arguing, Oliver directly pulled open the car door and jumped out.
"Hey! How can I be blind and become friends with you? What are you going to do?"
...
"Tell me. Elaine is crazy. Are you also crazy? Damn it. You are so unreasonable."
Lucas grunted angrily as he rolled down the window and looked out.
Oliver ran forward like a sharp sword. Having come up to the crowd, he ferociously asked them to disperse.
"Mr. Lee, what should we do? Should we still wait for Master Young?"
The driver of the ZH Clan asked Lucas gloomily.
Lucas snorted. "Let's go! We're not going to wait for that bastard! Obviously, he's going to pick up girls again. Let's go!"
The convoy had already left, leaving only Marina at the private airport to keep Atwood company.
Marina's face was ashen without any color.
She was still annoyed by Emmett's straightforward confession of his love for Elaine.
"Emmett doesn't believe me. Sooner or later, he will break up with Elaine!"
Atwood sighed.
Marina raised her eyebrows. Looking at Atwood, she asked suspiciously.
"Why do you say that?"
Atwood took a look at Marina and said in a low voice.
"The person whom you asked to assassinate Elaine has already been controlled by Emmett. He hates you deeply now. You must be careful."
"What?" (⊙_⊙)
Marina quivered in shock and almost fell over.
Atwood surprisingly knew that she sent people to chase after Elaine.
This was extremely confidential!
"Dad...."
Atwood stopped Marina's pointless explanation.
He said directly, "I know my son best. He cares so much about Elaine. Those who want to harm Elaine will not end well."
"That's why you have to be careful. Perhaps Emmett has already made his mind to take revenge on you. "
"What?"
Marina gasped in astonishment.
"Then what should I do?"
Atwood sneered, "Continue your original plan.... Actually, even if I don't stop them, Emmett and Elaine won't be able to be together. This is a secret...."
...
Secret?
Marina's curiosity was aroused.
"What secret? Could it be ... Emmett and Elaine...."
Atwood laughed sinisterly, "Wait and see. You'll know."
When Marina saw that Atwood did not want to explain this matter clearly, she did not say anything else. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Atwood left a few words to his subordinate, got into his car, and left first.
Marina stood there alone in the cold wind.
