Chapter 793

Chapter 793:

No.

He refused to accept it.

The Johns family would never willingly hand over the CEO position to him.

If they wouldn’t give him what he deserved, he’d have to take it himself.

After all, wasn’t that the ultimate proof of his worth?

His eyes flicked to Dane, whose unease brought a smirk to his lips.

“Dane,” Hector said, his tone light yet laced with mockery.

“You’re not a child anymore.

Mistakes have consequences, and you need to learn to face them.” He shrugged casually.

“As for me, I have no idea what you’re accusing me of.”

Before Dane could muster a reply, the door burst open with a loud bang.

Hector frowned, wondering who had the audacity to barge in without knocking.

His question was quickly answered as he saw a cane swing toward him.

Ga lno vel s . com takes you into new worlds

He stepped back just in time, dodging it, only to be greeted by his father’s furious voice.

“Hector Lyons! Have you lost your mind? Scheming against the Johns family? Are you trying to destroy everything I built? Or are you just determined to give me a heart attack?”

Aldin raised his hand to slap Hector, but this time, Hector caught his wrist.

Hector’s jaw tightened.

The humiliation of being chastised by his father like this—especially in front of Dane—was unbearable.

“Dad, listen to me,” Hector snapped.

“You’ve clearly been fed lies.

Do you really think I’d stoop to something like that? Whatever’s gone wrong, it’s Dane’s fault, not mine!”

“Don’t you dare shift the blame!” Aldin shot back, pulling his wrist free.

“Do you think I don’t know the kind of person Dane is? I’m not blind, Hector.

I’ve been watching you for years, letting you have your way, and look where it’s brought us.”

Hector’s expression darkened.

“So you’d rather trust Dane than your own son? Is that it?”

The disappointment in Aldin’s eyes was unmistakable.

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
