Chapter 787 Never Expected You to Be So Loyal
The Peorson Residence.
After Aidon left, Justin glonced ot the corpse beside him ond ordered, "Dispose of this."
His subordinote responded, "Yes."
Amondo's eyes were still wide open in shock but no longer focused.
It seemed like she couldn't believe she hod died just like thot.
Justin moved his wheelchoir ond returned to Gordon's room.
Then, he turned on the lights, dispelling the dorkness in the room.
On the bed, Gordon looked flushed. Moybe it wos becouse he hod heord the commotion downstoirs or
wos trying hord to get up or speok.
While looking ot him, Justin soid, "You probobly heord the commotion just now. Aidon come over."
A horsh sound come from Gordon's throot os if he were cursing ot Justin.
But Justin smiled indifferently ond continued, "I never stopped him from toking you owoy ond even
invited him to come up to visit you, but he refused me. Whot con I do obout thot?"
Gordon glored ot the son he never cored obout in the post.
Previously, he hod thought obout whot Aidon would do if he goined power ond discovered the truth
obout whot hoppened bock then. But he hod never expected to be tropped in o room with seoled
windows, where not even o roy of sunlight could penetrote, by this son who olwoys hod o gentle smile
ond potiently resolved conflicts within the Peorson Fomily.
Justin odded, "I don't know whot the person you sent soid to Aidon, but it surely wos not something
good. I never cored obout who wos working for you nor hove I stopped you from letting him bring your
messoges to others. But, do you think Aidon doesn't know onything?"
Gordon stored ot his son with shock ond onger in his eyes.
Smiling, Justin exploined, "If you hove o cleor understonding of your fote, insteod of bloming others,
you should know thot nothing is difficult for Aidon os long os he sets his mind to do something. Not only
does he know whot I hove done, but he olso knows... whot I will do. But he still hosn't completely
severed ties with me. Do you know why?"
Under Gordon's unfocused ond hoteful goze, Justin slowly tounted, "In his heort, no motter whot I do, I
om still his older brother, ond, thonks to you, he will olwoys feel indebted to me. I wouldn't be where I
om todoy if it weren't for him.
As for you, he hos never thought of you os his fother."

After Aidan left, Justin glanced at the corpse beside him and ordered, "Dispose of this."
His subordinate responded, "Yes."
Amanda's eyes were still wide open in shock but no longer focused.
It seemed like she couldn't believe she had died just like that.
Justin moved his wheelchair and returned to Gordon's room.
Then, he turned on the lights, dispelling the darkness in the room.
On the bed, Gordon looked flushed. Maybe it was because he had heard the commotion downstairs or
was trying hard to get up or speak.
While looking at him, Justin said, "You probably heard the commotion just now. Aidan came over."
A harsh sound came from Gordon's throat as if he were cursing at Justin.
But Justin smiled indifferently and continued, "I never stopped him from taking you away and even
invited him to come up to visit you, but he refused me. What can I do about that?"
Gordon glared at the son he never cared about in the past.
Previously, he had thought about what Aidan would do if he gained power and discovered the truth
about what happened back then. But he had never expected to be trapped in a room with sealed
windows, where not even a ray of sunlight could penetrate, by this son who always had a gentle smile
and patiently resolved conflicts within the Pearson Family.
Justin added, "I don't know what the person you sent said to Aidan, but it surely was not something
good. I never cared about who was working for you nor have I stopped you from letting him bring your
messages to others. But, do you think Aidan doesn't know anything?"
Gordon stared at his son with shock and anger in his eyes.
Smiling, Justin explained, "If you have a clear understanding of your fate, instead of blaming others,
you should know that nothing is difficult for Aidan as long as he sets his mind to do something. Not only
does he know what I have done, but he also knows... what I will do. But he still hasn't completely
severed ties with me. Do you know why?"
Under Gordon's unfocused and hateful gaze, Justin slowly taunted, "In his heart, no matter what I do, I
am still his older brother, and, thanks to you, he will always feel indebted to me. I wouldn't be where I
am today if it weren't for him.
As for you, he has never thought of you as his father."
Once he finished speaking, Gordon propped up half of his body with all his might and grabbed the
ornament on the bedside table before throwing it at Justin.
But his body had reached its limit, and even with all his strength, the object wasn't thrown far enough
and landed beside Justin's feet.
Justin didn't dodge or avoid it but watched him while smiling.
Gordon struggled to speak and only managed to say one word with his hoarse voice, "B*stard!"
"It seems like your health has recovered quite well."
Upon hearing that, Gordon was shocked, and his pupils contracted.
Justin smiled and didn't stay any longer. He turned his wheelchair around and left.
Shortly after he left, a doctor came in and held Gordon's arm down despite his struggles before
injecting him with a needle.
Gordon fell back onto the bed, staring fixedly at the dark ceiling.
This time, he could no longer move.
Half an hour later, news of Amanda's death reached John's ears.
Kevin paced back and forth but was unable to relieve his anxious mood. "First it was Joseph, and now
Amanda. I don't think he ever intended to partner with us and only wants to kill us all!"
John reassured him, "Why are you panicking? Are you a member of the Woodley Family?"
Kevin fell silent before replying, "No, I'm not."
"Then did he discover your whereabouts and barge into the Woodley Residence without permission?"
Kevin didn't know what to say and replied, "No."
John Watson said, "Then there's nothing to worry about."
Freya, who had been silent, interjected, "Joseph hasn't been a member of the Woodley Family for a
long time. He killed those people just to silence them."
Without saying anything, Kevin nodded in agreement.
Everyone here had gathered together for money.
Apart from Joseph and Amanda, even Leroy, who had initially joined them, was killed because of this
scheme.
Who knew who would be next among them?
Though Justin looked gentle, there was a hint of recklessness about him.
His revenge seemed not to be about regaining what he deserved but bringing everyone down with him.
John reasoned with them, "Why worry about these things? As long as you don't provoke him, he won't
do anything to you, at least for this moment."

John threw him a glance, and he shut up.
Meanwhile, Freya didn't have such patience. She originally worked for Joseph and couldn't possibly
continue working for them after Joseph's death.
Just as she got up, John said, "If you're planning on leaving Highside, I have nothing to say. But if you
have any other ideas, I can do nothing except send you to your death."
Freya sneered. "I never expected you to be so loyal."
"I'm not loyal, but I took his money, so I have to help him get rid of his problems."
Freya ignored him and left.
After she left, Kevin spoke up. "Mr. Watson, judging from the current situation, he has probably decided
not to keep things from Aidan any longer."
John smirked. "Of course. He wouldn't be able to hide anything, even if he wanted to."
It was time for the final showdown.
He wanted to see what the outcome was between Aidan and Justin.
After a while, John glanced to the side and asked, "Has Joseph's body been found?"
Kevin answered, "Not yet... There's been no news from the Woodley Family either."
While crossing his legs, John asked, "Do you think Joseph would die so easily?"
It had been ten years since Joseph left the Woodley Family. Not only did he build his own business
empire, but he also set up this trap with Justin.
During these past few years, he also arranged everything for Justin.
Therefore, he couldn't have let his guard down when facing Justin.
Moreover, Joseph Woodley was definitely not as simple as he appeared.
Since he had been planning this for so long, how could he let himself fall into the Woodley Family's
scheme so easily?
Kevin analyzed, "But even if he's still alive, he will never leave Jamesdon's borders because it wouldn't
be long before Lachlan finds him."
John asked, "Do you think that there is a direct conflict between Joseph and Lachlan?"
After a pause, Kevin questioned, "What are you saying, Mr. Watson?"
"Nothing. I'm just curious about Lachlan, the rumored head of the Woodley Family. What kind of person
is he?"
