Dan turned to look at Kenneth. His usually calm and controlled gaze seemed rather flustered.
“Mr. Kenneth.”
Kenneth appeared calm and collected as he watched the man lying on the ground and sneered. “Dan, call the ambulance and the police, as well.”
Looking at Kenneth, Dan quickly pulled himself together and did as he was told.
At this point, cameras flashed outside, and a large number of reporters appeared out of nowhere. They just took shots at the Hamilton residence. Although they could not enter the courtyard, it was enough for them to see this scene from outside.
Kenneth watched the scene outside, and then his eyes fell on Desmond who was lying on the ground. “Good job, Mr. Lynch.”
Desmond lay on the ground, covered in blood, seemingly on the brink of death. Yet, he looked at Kenneth. “Kenneth, you forced me to do this. If you would not leave Lynch Corporation alone, I shall make things difficult for Hamilton Corporation.”
Kenneth twisted his lips, as if he could not care less.
“I'm just curious what else you can do.” Kenneth spoke.
Desmond looked at him with fear in his eyes.
“Mr. Hamilton, if your will let Lynch Corporation off the hook, I can tell the public now that what happened just now was just a misunderstanding...”
Kenneth cast him an icy glance. “There's no need.”
Desmond was stunned.
Soon, the ambulance arrived.
The emergency staff started to work immediately. Taking out a stretcher, they lifted Desmond inside. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
When the ambulance was about to leave,
Kenneth looked at him, “By the way, Mr. Lynch, I forgot to tell you. I had no plans to do anything to Lynch Corporation. However, I have changed my mind now. Mr. Lynch, you have successfully killed off Lynch Corporation.”
Desmond was taken aback and he clutched at the hem of Kenneth's shirt. “Kenneth, what are you going to do?”
Kenneth just laughed, but he did not say a word.
“Kenneth, have you lost your humanity?”
Kenneth remained silent.
“Kenneth, don't you know how to live and let live? If you force me to take my own life, I'll come back as a ghost and haunt you.”
Then, the paramedics took him away.
When the police arrived, Zeke was in his uniform, looking serious.
When he saw Kenneth, he frowned. “It's you again!” “Mr. Zeller!” Kenneth greeted him quietly,
“So sorry to bother you at such a late hour.”
“What happened?”
Kenneth lifted his eyes. “Everything is recorded by the surveillance cameras. See for yourself and you'll understand.”
Zeke turned his gaze in the direction of the surveillance cameras. Then he said to his men with him, “Make a copy of the video.”
With that, he turned to Kenneth. “Where's Liam?”
“He's inside.”
“Kenneth, when will you stop causing trouble for Liam?” With that, he walked inside.
This news was soon spread all over the internet.
The next day, photographs of Desmond kneeling in the yard of the Hamilton residence and then lying on the ground in a puddle of blood were seen on every news website.
Some posts added the story of Erin being in a vegetative state after a car accident, and all kinds of arguments pointed to Kenneth, stressing that capitalists do not value human life.
For whatever reason, from every direction, fingers were pointed at Kenneth.
Early the next morning, a large number of reporters gathered at the entrance of the Hamilton Corporation, totally blocking it and making it quite inaccessible.
The children saw the news early in the morning and gathered around to talk about it.
Denise's brows were knitted tight in worry as she watched. “I knew something was wrong when Daddy left last night.”
Benjamin nodded solemnly as he watched. “This is obviously the work of someone who wants to create trouble.”
Anthony watched the news in silence.
“Tony!” Denise turned her gaze on Anthony.
Since he would not speak, Denise
continued, “I'm going to take down all the news.'
Anthony stopped her. “Mommy is still at home. Are you crazy?”
“But... these people are scolding Daddy!” Denise watched on angrily.
“Are you saying that Hamilton Corporation can't resolve these issues?” Anthony asked.
“What do you mean?”
Anthony asked, “How powerful is Hamilton Corporation? Whether it is by monetary payment or by use of authority, they can remove these news reports.”
“Do you mean... Daddy did this on purpose?” Denise asked.
“Of that, I cannot be sure but I know that he can handle it.” Anthony had an unwavering faith in Kenneth.
After all, the siblings' superior genes could not have come from Natasha alone.
Besides their appearance, Anthony felt that he was similar to Kenneth in other ways as well.
While Denise listened to him, she continued to worry and frown. “Well, you are not certain, then. What can we do now?” She continued, “If Daddy did not allow it on purpose, should we let these people carry on with the bullying?”
Anthony pondered for a moment and gestured toward Natasha's room.
“What do you mean?” Denise asked.
“It's not right for us to do anything about the situation. However, there's someone who will not sit idly by when she sees the news,” Anthony said, laughing.
Benjamin nodded. “I agree.”
Denise was dumbstruck for a moment. Then, she understood what her brother meant.
“I understand now!” As she spoke, a smile appeared on her face, and she raced into Natasha's room holding the phone.
Natasha was sleeping like a log.
“Nat, Nat!” At this point, Denise had pushed open the door and leaped into her bed.
When Natasha heard the voice, she pulled the blanket over her head and continued to sleep.
“Nat, something has happened!” Denise said.
“Let me sleep for a while longer.”
“Nat, don't sleep anymore. Look!” Denise held the phone in front of Natasha.
The curtains were not drawn yet and the room was still in darkness. The phone screen was too bright in contrast and Natasha squinted.
“Yesterday, after Daddy left, someone went to the Hamilton residence to cause trouble and the person nearly died,” Denise said.
Natasha was taken aback by her words. Only then, did she take the phone from Denise.
Natasha frowned when she read the news on the phone.
“When Daddy left yesterday, he must have anticipated some trouble, so he didn't let us go with him,” Denise said. “I didn't expect such a thing to happen. This morning, the news was released, and now all the internet users are lashing out at Daddy!” Denise pouted and complained.
She had hoped that her Mommy could come forward and help Daddy block out those netizens.
Strangely, after reading the news, Natasha got up and went out of the bedroom.
Curious, Denise followed her.
In the living room, Terence had apparently just finished talking on the phone. When he saw Natasha walking in, he asked, “So you know everything?”
Natasha nodded. “How is Old Mr. Hamilton taking it?”
“I just called. Everything seems fine,” Terence replied.
Natasha was relieved to hear that.
“Nonetheless, I'm still a little worried, and I want to go and make sure. Would you... come with me?” Terence asked.
Even though he would like Natasha to cut off all ties with the Hamilton family, this was an emergency. Furthermore, he knew full well how Liam cared about Natasha and it was only fitting for him to take Natasha along.
Natasha nodded decisively. “I'll wash up and then we can go.”
With that, she headed for the bathroom.
After a few minutes, the family went to the Hamilton residence.
