Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 271 271: A snake, devouring his entire family

"What do you mean? What's wrong with me?" Blake queried, unclear of what his son was attempting to convey.

"Earlier, I saw Roger bring you to your room? You didn't look as well," he inquired, his mind full of worry.

"Oh, that, I tricked him," he answered, putting his concerns to rest.

"But how come you're here? You haven't been home in months. Your mother misses you, and so do I." Blake would never voice his feelings, but after all these years, he recognized how his domination alienated his children, particularly his now-only son, who distanced himself from him simply because he joined hands with Jedrick.

Yes, the guy funding them was none other than Jedrick, and Kaden refused to take over the business because he despised him for ruining his sister's life.

She left him because of that man. If he had actually liked her, perhaps things would have been different. But that man turned out to be a snake, devouring his entire family and capturing the land all on his own.

Jedrick was vicious, and he would not hesitate to kill his own parents, the ones who gave them a family and a reputation. Who adored them as if they were their own. He was a monster disguised as a human, and it was time to put an end to him.

Kaden looked down and took his father's hand. He could have been unhappy with him, but he never disliked him. They had differing thoughts and opinions, which resulted in him moving out of the house and refusing to join the family business.

He knew what his father was getting into, and his peace of mind and morals that would never allow him to do wrong led him down a new route to join forces.

Erna's desire was to see him accomplish what he enjoyed, and his enthusiasm for him had led him to where he is now.

He had been completely unaware of what was going on with his parents and had made few visits to them throughout the years. But after learning of his sister's death, everything came crumbling down.

He was outraged when Jonathan refused to attend her burial and warned them not to contact them again. It was sad, but they realized they had no right to see their daughter no matter what happened.

But then, one day, Kaden received unexpected news: his sister had been attacked and had never died of disease. Everything was setup to mislead them, and the perpetrator was Jonathan, her own husband.

However, when he dug more, he found there was more to this deceit, and Jonathan was hiding something bigger than they could think. That was why he was here: to keep an eye on Jonathan, as he was the key to his purposes.

Kaden was going to confront his father when he heard footsteps approaching and hurriedly stood up.

"What are you doing here?" Who gave you permission to come in?" Roger's brow wrinkled as he saw the staff member enter the room without permission. However, before he could question, Blake intervened.
