Alfred nodded vigorously, heeding to Zeke’s orders.
Then Zeke brought Conrad and left while Alfred trudged out of the room.
He did not want to stay in that room for a moment longer. It was too horrifying!
Meanwhile, at the Williams Manor.
Ben, who had tipped Zeke off, was tied up and kneeling in the middle of the hall.
There was a red mark on his cheek where he had been slapped, and he was bleeding from his mouth. Ben was
merely holding on to his last breath, barely alive.
The entire Williams family, including the head of the household, Robin, had surrounded him.
Lucille felt frustrated that her seat was now taken by someone from another family.
Hence, she vented her anger on Ben.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucille roared, “How dare you tip that ba****d off? If the ba****d manages to survive thanks to you, I’ll make sure
to kill you!”
Even though Ben was barely breathing, he argued, “Madam, Sir’s name is Williams as well! The blood that flows
within him is the Williams’ blood! He’s not an enemy! I can stand it if you abuse him, but why must you kill him?”
Lucille roared, “That rascal doesn’t deserve the Williams surname! He’s disgraced the Williams! We’ll only be free
from the shame when he’s dead!”
Alfred nodded vigorously, heeding to Zeke’s orders.
Then Zeke brought Conrad and left while Alfred trudged out of the room.
Ben laughed bitterly, “He’s your grandson! How laughable!”
Lucille’s face darkened, “How dare you mock me? Slap him!”
“Halt!” Robin commanded. “Grandma, please remember your place. I’m the head of the household now. Your
words hold no weight.”
Instantly, Lucille’s face flushed red, and apologized, “Sorry, I couldn’t keep my emotions in check. Very well then,
please present your verdict.”
Lucille’s heart bled when she said that.
Robin mentioned, “I heard that the Williams family raised a few Tibetan Mastiffs. They’re ferocious, aren’t they?
Feed him to the hounds!”
Everyone present inhaled sharply. What a vicious woman! Ben simply tipped someone off, but she wants him dead!
That’s unreasonable!
Ben had served in the Williams family for a long time, and most of them no longer treated him as an outsider. Thus,
none of them could bear to feed him to the dogs and turned to Lucille for help.
Seeing that no one moved, Robin flew into a rage, “Did I stutter?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLucille sighed, “What are you waiting for? Didn’t you hear the head of the household?”
Two members of the Williams family stared at Ben with a pained expression.
Ben burst into laughter, “Hahaha! The noble Williams family that had hundreds of years of history had produced
many outstanding men! However, the head of the household is now an outsider, and you guys have to listen to her!
You’re all a disgrace to the ancestors! None of you are fit to call yourself a Williams!”
These words had hit the Williams family hard. In order to save their pride, they started attacking Ben.
“Shut up. You’re but a servant! You’ve got no right to interfere in the family affairs!”
“Ms. Robin is married to Zach, so she’s part of the Williams family, not an outsider!”
“What’s more, the Lewis family is so powerful and has a general! They’re even related to the Tulle organization! It’s
a blessing for the Williams family that they’re willing to back us up!”
Nevertheless, Ben ignored them and continued laughing hysterically, “The Williams family has a powerful man
who’s able to save the family, but the Williams family refuses to acknowledge him and even wants him dead! Alas,
is this our fate?”
