Chapter 61 Survival of the Fittest At the end of the day, all Ron wanted was money and not Jethro’s life. When the shouting behind him fainted, he instructed his men to stop. Sweeping his gaze past Jethro, who was half-dead, Ron then turned to Leanna. “I didn’t expect you to be quite ruthless. You’re just watching, even though he’s your father.” Leanna’s throat felt a little dry, and after a few seconds, she uttered, “If he still had me and my brother in his heart, he wouldn’t have done something like this today.”

After all, he’s—” “Didn’t you already say that if he still cared about us, he wouldn’t have done this? If he could have no bottom line, why can’t we do the same?” Louis argued. Leanna kept quiet and didn’t say a thing.
