Chapter 235
Finally, Eder spoke, and all eyes turned to him. He reached out to untie his scarf and unbutton his suit. The injury on his chest was the most visible evidence.
Seeing that the large purple bruises on his chest and collarbone were about to be exposed to all the members of the Grant family, Grace was scared and grabbed his collar, tightly covering it.
“Don’t take it off! So many people are watching, aren’t you ashamed?”
D amn it, he’s disregarding virtue!
Wait until he recovers from his injury, and I’ll teach him a lesson!
Eder smirked, “I’m a man, it’s normal to show my chest.”
“Not normal!” Grace glared at him angrily, threatening in a low voice, “Your body should only be seen by me in the future! Hurry up and get dressed!”
Eder heard her asserting her authority over him.
He was pleased with her little possessive act!
He buttoned up his shirt and exchanged a glance with Eric, who was standing outside the door.
Eric brought in a young man who was bound and threw him onto the empty space in the ancestral hall. She also handed a pre-printed document to Mr. Grant through Uncle Alfred.
“It was him who spread false information while you were on a mission, Mr. Storm. When I tried to capture him last night, he happened to have taken Xian’s reward money and was planning to flee. And this document is his confession.”
Mr. Grant carefully read the confession, his expression serious as he looked at Jaden.
Jaden was slightly stunned.
Didn’t Xian tell him that the guy had been quietly taken to the outskirts and killed? How did Eric manage to catch him?
Mr. Grant handed the confession to him, and he read it from beginning to end three times, confirming its authenticity.
In the end, he concluded that the people under Xian didn’t handle things well! They had been caught red-handed!
Eric continued, “Mr. Storm, as the one in power in the Grant family, shouldn’t you enforce the family law on Xian for nearly causing your death?”
All eyes turned to Mr. Grant, seemingly waiting for his instructions.
Mr. Grant stroked his beard amidst the many gazes and stood up with Uncle Alfred’s support. “Eder, the Grant family is now under your control. You decide, I’m going back to rest.”
Eder nodded slightly, “Grandfather, take care.”

“Dad! Don’t go!” Jaden called out twice.
Mr. Grant left, and there was no one left to help him.
At this moment, he was in a dilemma. Xian, on his first independent mission, had messed up so badly!
Ignoring Jaden and leaving without turning back, Mr. Grant left the ancestral hall.
Once he left, the other members of the Grant family also left on their own.

Chapter 235
In the blink of an eye, only Grace, Eder, Eric, and Jaden remained in the spa cious ancestral hall.
The
young man who had caused trouble earlier was taken away by Eric’s men.
With everyone gone, there was no need to feel embarrassed. Jaden smiled apologetically and said, “Eder, Xian didn’t mean anything else. There’s no need to escalate it to the point of him intentionally harming you. Besides, he’s also injured and still unconscious. How about we let it go and call it
even?”
Grace took over the conversation, “Jaden, you’re overthinking. It was my idea to discipline Xian. If you’re not satisfied, you can come to me to discuss it. The matter of Xian harming Eder is separate. Each should be dealt with accordingly. There’s no need to call it even.”
Jaden glared at her angrily, then turned to Eder, “Eder, what do you think?”
Eder pulled Grace onto his lap, indulgently rubbing her little face, showing their affection without caring about others.
“Grace is right, each matter should be dealt with accordingly.”
He turned his head to look at Jaden, his gaze returning to its coldness. “I heard my cousin is still unconscious? And seriously injured?”
Jaden smiled, “Yes, I’ll definitely scold him later and ask him to be more careful next time!”
Eder ignored his words and looked at Eric, “You personally bring someone to invite Xian. Even if he needs to be carried, he must be brought to the ancestral hall.”
Jaden’s face slightly changed, and he immediately signaled to the bodyguards outside the door.
Twenty minutes later, Xian was brought into the ancestral hall under Eric’s escort.
“Boss, just now, Jaden’s bodyguards tried to secretly take Xian away from the villa, but I subdued them.”
“Good.”
Last night, Xian was rescued by bodyguards after only a few hours. As a grown man, those minor injuries were promptly treated and not serious to him.
Eder had known all along that he was pretending.
“Uncle, what punishment do you think is appropriate?” Jaden softened his tone. “Xian just lacks discipline. Fortunately, Eder, you’re not seriously hurt. How about a minor punishment to teach him a lesson? I can take him back and give him thirty strokes with a cane.”
“Dad!” Xian protested.
He couldn’t understand why he should be punished! He
He cursed why the bullet didn’t hit Eder’s heart or he had a stroke of bad luck.
Grace had heard that the Grant family upheld traditional values and strict family laws, but she had no concept of what jaden meant by thirty strokes with a cane. Anyway, she was just here to watch the show.
Eder didn’t respond to Jaden’s words. His face was gloomy and cold, clearly unsatisfied.
Eric spoke on his behalf, “Jaden, aren’t you being too biased? If it weren’t for the young Boss’s luck, the position of the successor might have changed hands. The suggestion is ten strokes with a cane for this incident, and let it be.”
“Strokes with a cane?” Xian gritted his teeth in hatred. “You, Eder, are living well, yet you wanted to take half of my life. Isn’t that too much!”

Eder’s eyes turned cold, and he casually added, “You should be grateful I didn’t die. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be as simple as ten strokes with a cane. Say another word of nonsense, and I’ll add five more strokes.”
Uncle Alfred, the cane bearer of the ancestral hall, helped Mr. Grant back to his room and returned to the ancestral hall.
Now Xian couldn’t escape.
