Semua Bab Winner Takes All: Bab 241 - Bab 250

Austin endured the searing pain coming from his wound.He leaned against the seat, taking deep breaths with all his might. Still, he couldn't hide his pain.In a trembling voice, he smiled and said, "Since she wants to hold me responsible, if I appear before her looking all fine and dandy, I'll get more blame, won't I?"Ezra's expression froze.In an instant, he felt as if something was stuck in his chest, and a terrible feeling filled his heart.From how he saw it, Austin had done this out of desperation. That was why Austin purposely wanted to show Dorothy how badly he was wounded.If Mason was the one who got hurt, he definitely wouldn't do something like that.In the Campbell family, Mason was Dorothy's darling grandson. If he got hurt, he just had to kneel in front of her and let out a few cries of pain. Then, Dorothy would want to seek justice for him.As for Austin, he had to open his wound that was almost healing just so that Dorothy would go easy on him!They were bot

Austin's cold voice resounded in the main hall.In an instant, the air seemed to freeze.The middle-aged man with his hair graying at the sides widened his eyes in utter shock.Ezra and Aldus were so terrified that their faces turned pale.Ezra hastily said to Austin, "Sir, please mind your manners!"With that, he hastily explained to Dorothy, "Mrs. Campbell Senior, I'm apologizing to you on Mr. Austin's behalf. Please forgive him.""Hah!"Dorothy scoffed. She didn't even spare a glance at Ezra on the floor. Instead, she met Austin's gaze and slowly narrowed her eyes.Throughout the process, other than endless coldness, there were no emotions on Austin's face at all.As he faced off with Dorothy, he didn't even flinch in the slightest.When he had just entered the main hall, he had already realized that Dorothy was reciting the prayers for the dead.But he thought that he came here with charges and accusations, and he was here to beg Dorothy to have mercy on him. So, he endu

Ezra and Aldus felt like they were struck by lightning, and they were in extreme fear.Ezra was tearing up, and his face was filled with despair.Everything would be ruined now!"You…"Dorothy was furious.She thought, "How dare a mutt treat me like that? How ridiculous!"She held a position above everything else in the Campbell family, which had control over the world's wealth. Even the head of the family had to treat her with respect.To her, even if Austin was the biological son of the head of the family, if she was in a good mood, she might still call Austin a mutt. But if she was in a bad mood, Austin meant nothing to her.He would be even less than a mutt!However, Austin took a step forward. At that moment, he had an intimidating and arrogant air about him."I respect you because you're the old lady of the Campbell family. But if I don't feel like respecting you, you're nothing to me!"When Dorothy heard his shocking words, her expression shifted.Despite her decent

Walter's voice resounded in the main hall.His voice was abnormally calm. However, he exuded an air of disdain and intimidation, silencing any objections.Only the head of the Campbell family could possibly carry himself like this!Dorothy's face went pale. Her skinny body trembled ever so slightly as she gritted her teeth.Walter was the head of the family, but he was also younger than her.It was rude for someone of a younger generation to talk back to an elder like her.Now, she couldn't back out of this predicament gracefully, and she was also utterly shamed.Ezra and Aldus were elated. With reddened eyes, they gazed at the figure behind the fence.Judging by what Walter said, he was obviously intent on defending Austin!Even the middle-aged man with graying hair looked surprised at that moment.Austin was stunned.For some reason, he felt a tingle in his nose.He didn't expect his father, whom he had never met before, to be this fierce."Walter, is this how you speak

When Aldus and Ezra were helping Austin out of Bamboo Parlor, the middle-aged man with graying hair was waiting by the bridge over the small stream."Take Mr. Austin to the hospital as soon as possible."The middle-aged man with graying hair spoke calmly."Thank you, sir."Austin smiled as he nodded at the middle-aged man. "Sorry for the disturbance just now."This man was someone even Jacob had to be careful not to offend. Austin didn't want to get on this man's bad side for no reason. It was always nicer to have an extra friend instead of an extra enemy.The middle-aged man with graying hair gazed in the direction Austin and the others went. There was a deep look in his eyes.A moment later, he smiled. "I never expected that this young man from the Campbell family was hiding in this tiny corner of mine. Judging by the attitude of the head of the Campbell family today, this young man will be soaring to great heights soon, won't he?"After leaving Tetra Club, Aldus drove the Ro
