Nashâs gaze thickered slightly.
He heard the sounds of fighting on the phone.
Did Lauren and Barrison go to Hubertâs house?
Then again, after what happened before, Harrison and his wife would definitely suspect Hubertâs family.
Harrison usually swallowed his anger, but even he would fight Hubert when his daughter was in danger.
In the Lewis familyâs estate, Hermanâs blood pressure had skyrocketed due to the anger he felt because of his two sons.
Hubert and Harrison were both seated on the sofa, all bruised and battered.
The two were glaring at one another, neither of them convinced by the other.
âHow much more unreasonable can you be? Hubert is your elder brother. Donât you know that you should respect your elder brother as you would your father? How did the Lewis family raise a scheming man like you?â Rooney cursed as she pointed at the video of Harrison. She was so angry that her chubby face was trembling.
âElder brother? Bah! You know what you did to Hera. Donât think itâs over just because I havenât settled the score with you!â Harrison was slurring since his cheek was swollen.
âBoth of you, enough!â Herman roared at the two of them.
Lauren quickly picked up the cup of medicinal brew on the table and said, âDad, donât be angry. Drink this medicine first!â
It was holistic medicine from Nash that would work to quickly restore the old manâs memory.
Rooney rushed up to them and knocked the cup in Laurenâs hand onto the ground. âYou snake of a woman! Are you trying to poison the old man? Heâs already doing well, so why does he need to drink medicine?â
âYouâ¦â
Laurenâs expression turned cold. She lifted her hand and wanted to hit Rooney, but the latter immediately pushed her face forward. âCome on, why donât you hit me, then? Youâre going to beat me to death and then kill Hubert so that no one will compete with you for the Lewis familyâs assets, no?â
Unable to hold herself back any longer, Helena stood up and said, âLauren, I advise you not to push yourself too hard. Donât think just because you managed to land a partnership with Drake Group that you can do whatever you want!â
Lauren slowly brought her hand back down and sat on the sofa expressionlessly.
Helena looked at her battered father and said to Herman, âGrandpa, they must apologize to Dad!â
âWhy should we? Itâs obvious that Hubert was the first to strike!â Lauren shot coldly.
Helena sneered. âMy dad wouldnât have done it if Ha⦠Uncle hadnât threatened him first!â
Herman turned to look at Harrison. âHarrison, please apologize to your brother!â
Harrison was extremely dissatisfied and replied, âDad, Hubert hired assassins to assassinate Hera before this.â
He did not wish to hide this matter anymore now that the situation had come to this.
He would not be able to bring himself to apologize to someone who had tried to kill his daughter.
Hermanâs expression darkened. âHubert, what did you do?â
âDad, Hera is my niece. Why would I hire assassins to assassinate her? Harrison is just slandering me,â Hubert responded while rubbing his swollen face.
Harrison glared at Hubert. âHubert, are you even a man? Why donât you own up to what you did?â
Nashâs gaze flickered slightly.

Hubert fumed. âStop framing me! Prove it if you can! I think youâre the one who hired assassins to harm my daughter.â
He then added, âUncle was almost shot to death a few days ago too. I think youâre the one who did it!â
âYou liar.â
Harrison glared at Hubert, his gaze sharp as his body shook from the anger.
âForget it, I wonât lower myself to a villainâs level. You donât have to apologize to me. Whatâs important is that Hera is safe,â Hubert said while looking magnanimous.
He then looked at Helena and Rooney and said, âItâs getting late. Letâs all go back to our rooms and rest.â
âHubert, what about Helenaâs birthday?â Rooney asked.
Hubert said softly, âDad needs to rest. Weâll talk about it tomorrow.â
