Flash Marriage to a Stunning CEO (Alistair and Richard)

Chapter 126 Conspiracy

"Alistair, you're still my family, my brother. Just forget about all that bad blood for a moment. Are you free today? Let's go see Dad. He still cares about you; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone out of his way to meet your demands." Caleb forced a smile.

The word "brother" made Alistair's skin crawl so badly he nearly threw up his lunch.

He couldn't tell if Caleb was deliberately trying to disgust him or attempting to play the family card to set up whatever scheme they were planning.

Alistair looked at him with mockery. He couldn't remember the last time he'd actually sat face to face with Caleb like this.

The irony wasn't lost on Alistair. Caleb was supposed to be the burden, but somehow Alistair had become the outsider. Funny how that worked-Caleb got to be the precious legitimate son while he was just the pitiful bastard. Fate really had a way of twisting things around.

"Caleb, don't pretend you don't know I've cut ties with Liam," Alistair said. "He's your father. I didn't bother competing for his attention when I was young, and I care even less now. He treats you well, so take good care of him in return. Just don't waste the love he's given you."

Alistair was done wasting his time. He stood up and headed for

the door.

Caleb quickly followed. “We're all adults here. You really think you can just decide to end things and have no connection to my dad anymore?"

Alistair stopped in his tracks. "I'm not selling my screenplay, so stop wasting your energy."

Caleb shrugged like it didn't matter. "It's your work, so that's your call. But I'm talking about my dad right now."

"You just said it yourself. He's YOUR dad," Alistair shot back. "So what's that got to do with me? You think I can't legally cut ties with him? Fine, you're right. Tell you what? Go back and tell him to sue me if he wants."

Caleb stood frozen in place, his expression dark.

Whatever spell Alistair had cast on Liam was powerful. He and Celeste had repeatedly urged Liam to sue Alistair for the five million dollars, claiming the legitimate two million dollars was willingly given. After six years, they were confident Alistair couldn't prove he'd been sold.

But Liam, who used to do everything they asked, absolutely

refused. When they decided to confront Alistair themselves, Liam had actually fallen out of his hospital bed in panic, desperate to stop them from causing trouble.

Alistair moved forward cautiously. He knew this couldn't be so simple. They wouldn't let him walk away that easily when they hadn't gotten what they wanted.
