Chapter 443 An Undercurrent

The sky was already dark, but the lights at the Haberly family’s ancestral house were brightly lit.

Many people were gathered in the hall. All the prominent and dignified figures of the Haberly family were present.

At the same time, a disheveled middle-aged woman was crying as she held onto Miles, whose head was covered in bandages.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Seated on the highest spot was an elderly man with gray hair and a childlike face. He hit his walking stick on the ground a few times and ordered sternly, “Stop crying! What does everyone think about this matter?”

Incessant whispers could be heard from all over the room. Hearing that, Miles’ father, Benson Haberly, slammed his hand on the table. “This is too much! How could he beat Miles up so brutally? He clearly doesn’t respect our family. We must not let them off so easily, or it’ll be a humiliation for us!”

“Then so be it!” Sandra spoke up before Benson could continue. Her lips curled with a hint of mockery as she rebuked, “The person your son has offended is someone even Logan and Josiah do not dare to mess with. Surely all of you know who Logan and Josiah are. Eliminating our family is as easy as squashing an ant for them. Don’t you dare think of involving the Haberly family if you want to die.”

Both parties had a good point, and they each had their supporters. As soon as they finished speaking, the crowd in the hall broke into a heated discussion.

The pillar of the Haberly family, Tyler Haberly, furrowed his brows as he hit his cane on the ground again. “Silence, everyone! I’ll need some time to think about this matter. Go home, all of you. No one must stir trouble during these few days. If not, don’t blame me for the punishment you receive.”

Hence, the crowd dispersed.

Unwilling to let things slide so easily, Benson waited for the crowd to be gone before meeting Tyler in private. The former’s expression was filled with resentment and reluctance as he said, “Dad, are we really going to endure this? There’s something really fishy about this matter. Now that Miles is crippled, the entire family will fall into Sandra’s hands. She’s a female. She’s going to get married off sooner or later. I have a feeling that this is a part of the show.”
