Chapter 660

Avery, the ever–dutiful, had come to share a dinner with his father Jeff.

The dining hall once filled with laughter and chatter, was now hauntingly silent save for the two of them.

During the meal, Avery relayed the latest gossip about the Ashbourne family to Jeff.

The old man slapped his thigh gleefully. “Haha! So that’s why Emeric’s been missing all the events! Turns out he’s sick enough to be in the ICU!”

He used to brag about his iron constitution. Well, wasn’t this a kick in the teeth? With all those women in his room every day, who wouldn’t be worn out?”

Avery lowered his lashes and drank water.

“My good son, you’ve brought me some great news!”

Jeff chuckled, making a toast across the space. “With Emeric out of the picture, the Ashbourne family and the K Group must be in chaos, trying to keep up appearances. And if Cassius goes down too, the K Group would be without a leader. Oh, it’ll be our time to retaliate and settle old scores!”

Just then, a voice sliced through the quiet.

“Dad! The Chambers Group’s big break is finally here!”

Matthew, who had been absent for a long time, stormed into the dining hall, his lips twitching with poorly concealed excitement.
