Emmanuel remained silent, his gaze fixed on Gautier for a long moment
before a faint smirk appeared on his lips. âSo, you escorted Old Mr. Quillen
back today just to meet your end? I honestly canât see what you stand to
gain from this.â
Ultimately, everyone has an agenda driven by what they stand to gain; only
a fool would act without considering their own interests.
Gautier gestured to his chest and confessed, âFor me, the true reward is this-
my conscience.â
âConscience?â Emmanuelâs expression remained indifferent as he retorted
frostily.
Hubert watched his boss with an unshakable grin, deriving endless
satisfaction from the display. It was a source of joy far greater than anything
he could have achieved himself.
âAbsolutelyâitâs all about my conscience!â Gautier proclaimed.

He exhaled deeply and continued, âThe reason I turned against Hattie was
my affection for Mackenzie. Despite the betrayal, she chose to place her trust
in me and saved the Verkade family. I owe her a debt of gratitude that I can
never repay. Believe it or not, supporting the Verkade family has always been
my true intention. Given my fatherâs alliance with traitors and his heinous
acts, my only aim now is to atone for the wrongs done by my family!â
Emmanuelâs eyes remained locked on Gautier, his gaze intense and filled
with deadly resolve.
Terence finally broke the silence âEmmanuel, this matter has nothing to do
with Gautier. Donât put him in a difficult position.â I understand Emmanuelâs
anger, but this isnât the right course. Thereâs no evidence linking Gautier to the
Quillen familyâs tragedy. If Emmanuel turns on him despite his help, it will be
seen as a betrayal. That would mark him as a ruthless tyrant, losing the trust
and support of his people completely!
When Emmanuel saw Terence pleading for Gautier, he offered a faint,
knowing smile. With deliberate calm, he handed the gun back to Terence and

likely knew who was, including those who greedily took their wealth through
business schemes. Go now and make them pay.â
At his command, those in the banquet hall collapsed to the floor, their heads
hitting the ground as they cried out for mercy.
âEmmanuel, please show us mercy! We were driven to this!â
âYes! I will return all that we took from the Quillen family!â
âPlease, donât kill me!â he pleaded. âIâll return all the Quillen familyâs assets and
also give away all my own wealth if you spare my life!â
Each person seemed more humbled than the last, with every kowtow more
desperate than the one before. When faced with death, all other concerns
fade into insignificance. In the end, even great piles of gold mean nothing.
Though some might question Emmanuelâs resolve to end the lives of all
present, none could doubt his determination. To them, he appeared as a
relentless force of vengeance, a spirit of unyielding retribution.

âNow that you are afraid, what gave you the courage to greedily devour the
Quillen familyâs wealth while Old Mr. Quillen and Mackenzie were away?â
His words struck fear into their hearts, their cries echoing through the hall as if
mourning a great loss. Gautier, gripping his gun firmly, moved steadily
toward the quaking crowd.
âHold on a moment!â
As Gautier was about to lift his gun, Emmanuelâs authoritative command
halted him.
âSince they are willing to return the Quillen familyâs belongings, give them a
chance. However, if any assets remain unreturned by midnight tonight, you
will handle them personally on my behalf.â
Otherwise, Iâll ensure that you and your entire family face a grim fate!â
Gautier met his steely gaze and gave a silent nod of acknowledgment.

Those who had been begging and bowing felt a sudden sense of relist,
though their fear and trembling caused some to wet their pants. In their
orderly city, they had never witnessed such unrestrained violence. To them,
Emmanuel appeared to completely disregard the law and showed no fear of
the chaos his actions might unleash.
âGrandpa, itâs time for us to leave, Mackenzie is waiting for you!â
With the harsh task completed, he guided Terence away, his menacing
demeanor fading as if a mask had been lifted, revealing a gentler side.
âYes, Mackenzle is probably about to give birth soon.â
âIndeed, she is about to give birth any day now.â
Emmanuel nodded, a rare warmth touching his featuros.
âThatâs such wonderful news! Iâm eager to witness the birth of my
greatâgrandchild. It will be something special to share with your mother
when I meet her!â
