Chapter 65:

? ? ? ? ?

In the studio, Jerald's anger was palpable.

After composing himself, he had reviewed the Yates Group's financial records and discovered that Joshua had secretly diverted a significant amount of money. Joshua immediately apologized, explaining where the funds had gone.

However, when Jerald learned that Caden was involved in the plan, his fury erupted.

“Caden, you've spent years with the Ward family. I could overlook the fact that you've brought me nothing, but to come back here and plot against your own brother? How could you stoop so low?”

Caden, long accustomed to Jerald's constant favoritism toward Joshua, remained unfazed.

With an indifferent expression, he replied, “So you brought me here for this nonsense? I’m not interested.” He turned to leave, but Joshua quickly blocked his way.

The two looked at each other in a tense confrontation.

“Caden,” Joshua said, gaining confidence from Jerald’s presence. “Dad’s right. “We’re family, and what you did went too far.”

Caden smirked, his gaze cold. “I didn't do anything. You handed over the money willingly.”

Joshua's voice tightened. “You knew about my relationship with Lilliana and used it to set me up, didn't you?”

“When you asked me for help, your tone was very different,” Caden replied, his words tinged with mockery. Joshua's expression changed as he realized how he had been played.
