Chapter 390 The Joy of Being Protected
Anaya asked, "Wasn't your father controlled by you? How could he let Cristian go?"
"Last night, he said that he was not feeling well. The research institute had
limited medical resources, so I sent him to the hospital outside for a checkup."
Hearst didn't expect that his father and Linda would work together to save Cristian.
His father knew that Cristian had wanted to kill him before.
In the end, his father still stood on Cristian's side.
Hearst was gloomy. He stood up from the wheelchair and walked away.
Anaya hesitated for a moment before following him.
"Where are you going?"
"To see my father."
Anaya and Hearst went all the way to the basement.
The spacious room had a simple layout, and the white light was dazzling.

In the corner of the room, there was a desk.
Kolten was sitting at the table, flipping through a book in a foreign language. There were wrinkles on his face. He was expressionless.
Hearing the sound of movement, he looked up.
When he saw who it was, he suddenly smiled. "It seems that you already know that Cristian escaped."
Hearst walked over without saying a word. Anaya tried her best to lighten her footsteps and followed behind him.
Hearst stood in front of Kolten with a solemn expression. "Why do you let him go?"
The fake smile on Kolten's face slowly disappeared, "If I don't let him go, I have to watch him be abused to death.
"He is your younger brother. How can you be cruel to him? How can I leave him alone?
"He has already suffered a lot for you all these years, and what he owes you should be repaid. Why are you still holding on to him like this?

Hearst listened, but there was no emotion on his face.
Perhaps Hearst had guessed that Kolten would protect Cristian, so he didn't have many expectations for Kolten.
Kolten had been biased towards his Cristian for so long.
Back then, Kolten had heartlessly kicked him out of the Helms family when he was a teenager. This was already enough to show how cruel Kolten was.

Back then, Hearst had been accused of killing the butler. Kolten had kicked him out of the Helms family without hesitation.
Now, Cristian had almost killed him. Kolten still didn't care about it. Kolten still firmly stood on Cristian's side and went against him because of Cristian...
Hearst closed his eyes to hide his emotions.
"Dad, do you think that I won't be able to find Cristian if he escapes from here?"
Kolten was terrified, "Can't you let him go? He did do some wrong things in the past, but he was younger than you. Please let him go."
"If I let him go, he would have killed me." Hearst's voice was terrifyingly
cold, "Previously, I was too soft-hearted. Because of you, I gave him so many opportunities.
"If I find him again this time, I will kill him."
Hearing this, Kolten stood up with a whoosh.
The chair was pushed away, and the foot of the chair rubbed against the ground, making a harsh sound.
"Jared! If you dare to hurt Cristian, you are no longer my son!"
Hearst ignored him and ordered the people around him, "Send him back to
the manor."
He had controlled Kolten previously because he was worried that Kolten would bring people to look for Cristian again.
Now that Cristian had run away, it was useless for him to keep Kolten here.
If Hearst let Kolten out, he might be able to follow Kolten and find clues about Cristian's whereabouts.
After giving the order, Hearst turned around and walked out.
Kolten was unwilling to give up and wanted to catch up, but he was stopped
by the bodyguards.
Kolten's eyes were red and he was angry. "Jared! You are a scourge! If I had known, I would not have brought you back from that filthy woman!
"I have raised you for so many years, and I have been accommodating you
all these years. This is how you repay me for being so good to you."
Hearst did not turn back and just ignored Kolten's furious shout.
Anaya wanted to go out with Hearst. Hearing Kolten's words, she was irritated, and she could not help but stop her steps.
She turned around and walked quickly towards Kolten with a poker face.
She stepped on the ground and the shoes made a rapid and crispy sound. The sound was dense, and it made people involuntarily nervous.
Kolten saw that she came with ill intentions and said angrily, "What do you want to do? I am Jared's father. Do you want to..."
Before he could finish his words, Anaya had already walked up to him. With a poker face, she slapped him on the face.
The noisy basement instantly quieted down, leaving only Anaya's tense and depressed voice.
"The Helms family has today's status because of Jared's help. He raised you and that idiot Cristian and gave you the best living conditions. "You depend on his money to live. And this is how you reciprocate him."
"I feel sorry for Jared because he has such an evil father like you.
"If you weren't his father, I want to cut off the damn stupid ball on your
fucking neck and see how many disgusting things are inside!"
The bodyguard who stopped Kolten stared at her in shock.
Hearst was a little surprised. He was stunned for a few seconds, and then
could not help but laugh.
Anaya had always been eloquent, but in the past, she always beat around
the bush. She still cared about her manners.
This time, she said so many dirty words. It seemed that she was really
angry and lost her mind.
She was defending him.
When Hearst realized this, the emotions in his heart surged.
Even if she was angry with him, when something bad happened, she would
always stand by his side.
Kolten was stunned by Anaya's roar. After he reacted, he was completely

Then his cheeks were suddenly pinched, and he could only blur out some vague words.
"Dad, stop." Hearst lowered his head and looked at Kolten with a cold and reserved expression, "I won't hurt you, but I do not pity Cristian.
"If you say a few more words, the first thing I did after I found Cristian was
to gouge out his tongue."
Kolten's eyes widened and the veins on his forehead bulged.
But in the end, he lost confidence and didn't dare to say anything.
He dared to clamor because he was Hearst's father. No matter how angry
Hearst was, Hearst wouldn't kill him.
However, Hearst wasn't that kind to Cristian.
Seeing that Kolten had calmed down, Hearst let go of him. Hearst held
Anaya's hand and left the basement.
In the courtyard, the crowd had already left and taken away the barbecue
rack. It was empty, leaving only Anaya and Hearst.
Anaya followed behind Hearst. She could not see his expression and
tentatively called out, "Jared?"
The person who had his back to her suddenly turned around and hugged
her tightly.
Anaya raised her hand and hesitated for a few seconds before gently
placing it on his back. "Are you sad?"
"A little."
Although Hearst already knew that he was not welcomed by the Helms
family, when faced with this fact again, he still could not help but feel
heartbroken.
But in the past, he had to bear it alone. Today, there was someone who
spoke up for him, and he felt better.
Compared to the disappointment of family, there was more joy in being protected.
