Chapter 696: The Foolish Boris

Ruud looked at Boris and asked, "How have you been these years?"

"How could he have been? Just muddling through, doing nothing of substance," Leo scoffed coldly, thinking of his other two sons, who each had their unique accomplishments in their respective fields. Only Boris stayed at home. If he had simply managed the Pace family estate well, that would have been enough, but he was always up to tricks.

The last time he was poisoned, he had started to investigate but then stopped.

Not investigating didn't mean Boris wasn't involved.

He didn't pursue it to protect Boris!

The fact that he had been poisoned was bound to come out eventually, and once Ruud found out-knowing his temper-he would surely take Boris's life.

Leo had always been known for his fairness and integrity. In the past, he would have made the same decision as Ruud.

But in recent years, Ruud and Edwin were not at home, and only Boris stayed by his side.

Although this son was no achiever, he took good care of him.

He was old now and only wanted to see his family in harmony, not the grief of an elder burying a younger.
