Chapter 1118
"That's right. I'm his grandmother..." Her hand that was combing her hair stopped. Margaret was deep
in thought, and her eyes looked distant. "I'm his grandmother..."
"Mom, don’t overthink! Look, I'm your son and his uncle, but he never showed me mercy!" Ralph
noticed something was wrong and tried to persuade her, "Mom, we’re not forcing him to die. We just
want him to hand over control of the Russell family. Didn't you always want me to take over the family
and the company? We're just setting things right and getting everything back on track.”
"Setting things right." Margaret emphasized these three words and nodded, "Yes, setting things right."
Ralph felt that she had made up her mind and breathed a sigh of relief. He pushed the breakfast

eat slowly."
"Okay." She picked up the spoon and noticed he was still sitting there. Margaret asked, "Is there
anything else?"
"Mom, have you told my sister about this?"
Even though his mother's words were sufficient evidence, it would be much better if Celine could also
testify.
"She doesn't know," Margaret replied calmly as she lowered her head and blew at the hot porridge.
"If so... I'll ask Celine to come here. Tell her the plan so she won't be unaware and make a mistake
later." He got up and wanted to go find Celine but suddenly thought of something and turned back,
saying, "By the way, did she read the previous DNA report?"
Margaret took a sip of the porridge. She did not even look up and replied," She was the one who
brought back the DNA report. What do you think, did she read it or not?"
"That..." He was startled as he had overlooked this. It would be a big problem if Celine blurted out the
truth.
"I'll talk to her after breakfast. You don't have to worry about it." Margaret set down the spoon and
looked at him, "There’s still some time. I hope you think about it carefully. What is it that you want most
in your heart? Is it something that you must grasp in your hand no matter what? Please remember what
I told you before, leave a way out for others so you'll have a way out for yourself.”
His mother's words were bizarre recently. She kept talking about a way out and letting things go. What
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdid she mean when she told him to leave himself a way out? What was it that she wanted him to let go
of? Her words seemed to have hidden meanings, and she seemed to be urging him to release
Alexander.
It was always a matter of life and death in a power struggle. This would be a fight between brothers if
his brothers had not died so young. He refused to believe someone would leave him a way out if he
failed.
Even so, he said perfunctorily, "Fine. I get it. However, you must not believe anything Alexander tells
you, Mom. It's not like you don't know he was a scheming person since he was young. Don't be fooled
by him."
Margaret stared at him and nodded after a brief moment of silence. "You should go."
Ralph left her room, but after some thought, he felt uneasy. He felt he should look for Celine and talk to
her in person. His mother was acting weird. He needed to ensure everything was in order before he
could feel at ease.
