âHe already admitted it. No one told him to. He did everything on his
own.â
Zoeâs face let out a sly grin. âAnd even if it was me, do you have any proof? Show me the evidence.â
With a loud thud, Ryanâs fist pounded the wall next to Zoeâs head,
making her gasp in fear.
âListen to me.â Ryan breathed heavily, staring into her eyes without a hint of affection. âLuck doesnât
last forever, and using others for your own gain wonât go unnoticed. Aiden has watched you grow up
since childhood. Heâs been loyal to the Hoffman family and treated you like his own daughter, which is
why he was willing to bear everything for you. But not everyone is like Aiden. Karma will eventually
come back to haunt you, and youâll pay a painful price for your actions. You will
be abandoned by everyone and end up in hell!â
Zoe let out a mocking laugh and said, âRyan, I suggest you donât
mess with me. Youâve lost your father and abandoned your siste
you going to leave your mother too? Mom loves me a lot. I mean
everything to her. If anything happens to me, how do you think o
weak and sickly mother will cope? Can she even carry on living?â Zo
shook her head, a gleam of triumph in her eyes.
Ryan tensed up, the veins in his arms bulging.
Liam felt like exploding with anger, his beard bristling as he glared.
He couldnât believe how sly his family members were. Always quick to take credit for success, but the
first ones to bail when things went
wrong.
âDad, we need to leave,â Liam urged, feeling helpless in the face of the âlive streamâ situation.
âWe canât just walk away,â Logan said in a low voice. His face paled as he clutched his trembling cane.
âIf we leave now, the Hoffman familyâs reputation will definitely be ruined!â
He had no choice but to salvage their familyâs reputation by publicly cutting ties with Aiden. He even
had to ask for forgiveness during the live broadcast watched by millions of people.
âAiden, I brought you back from the orphanage. Since you were young, I provided for your education
alongside the young masters. Iâve always made sure you were well taken care of in terms of food,
clothing, or expenses. It is deeply disappointing to see you behave so badly and unreasonably, placing
us in this position after weâve treated you like one of our own. Iâm so disappointed in you!â
Logan continued, âMr. Thompson, Mr. Salvador, now th whoâs responsible for all this, the Hoffman
family wonât obj
whatever decision you make. Weâll also take full responsibil
harm caused to Ms. Thompson this time.â
Bella watched with a cold smirk on her lips. Earlier, when Justin
presented evidence, the Hoffmans had remained indifferent and
keen on protecting their own. But now they have completely shift their attitude and stance. They were
quite skilled at adapting according to circumstances.
ear
Loganâs words appeared to be sincere and thoughtful, as if they had taken everything into account.
But Justin was still unsatisfied. He gently held Bella around the waist and spoke in a low and cold tone,
âMr. Hoffman, do you believe that handling it this way will suffice?â
âMr. Salvador, the people from our Hoffman family have already been dealt with by you, and we have
also made a firm decision to take full responsibility. What more do you want?!â Liam felt like Justin was
practically taunting them with his remarks, causing anger to course
through his body.
âOf course, an apology is necessary.â At this moment, Christopher, who had been silent for a while,
found the perfect timing to step
forward.
Christopher spoke in a composed and organized manner. âMr.
you
Hoffman, Aiden has been under your care since childhood. His deliberate actions have caused
significant harm, leaving KS Groupâs valuable racehorse crippled and Ms. Thompson injured. Th
extent of her future injuries is still unknown. Itâs only rig
take full responsibility for this situation. However, as the h Hoffman family, it would also be fitting for you
to apologize acknowledge your mistakes to both Mr. Thompson and Ms.
Thompson.â
Christopher stole what Justin wanted to say, and everything he was right on point. Justin didnât mind,
because this was exactly wi
he had in mind.
