Chapter 236

Hugo’s contorted face sent shivers down Dustan’s spine. “Do you know what you’re talking about,

Hughie?”

However, Hugo’s sneer was extremely frosty. “Yes, I do. You killed my parents in a car accident and

made me an orphan. Then you forced yourself to take me in because you feared karma. Well, I’m

aware of all that.”

“That’s not how it was, Hughie. Your father caused the accident because of drunk driving, and I

happened to come across the scene, finding you as the sole survivor. I felt pity for you, alone and

covered in blood. That’s why I adopted you. I’m not the one responsible for killing your parents.”

But Hugo responded with another derisive sneer, seemingly anticipating Dustan’s denial. “You’ll need a

better story than that, Mister Dustan. Do you think I’ll still believe you?”

A month ago, Hugo accidentally uncovered the truth that he wasn’t a Waldorf but the son of a truck

driver. Shocked by this revelation, he attempted to drown his sorrows but encountered the president of

Lawson Enterprises, who disclosed the hidden truth to him. It was a secret that had been concealed

from him for over two decades.

He discovered that Dustan was the man responsible for his parents’ deaths, making him his own

enemy. That discovery, on top of having been deeply suppressed for many years, had tainted his

character. There was simply no turning back now.

Seeing Dustan’s guilty expression only fueled Hugo’s resentment further. “That’s enough. Starting

today, I’ll sever all ties with the Waldorf family.”

Hugo turned away coldly, his gaze passing over Pearl as he sneered. “I heard that anyone who marries

Pearl will receive twenty percent of Waldorf Enterprises’ shares. I guess you wanted to give that to

Richard right from the start.”

Stunned, Dustan asked, “How did you know that?”

“That’s irrelevant, but your bias is really disgusting.” With those words, he began to leave, but Pearl

stopped him.

“Mister Dustan has taken care of you for all these years, Hugo. Don’t you have any gratitude for him?”

Even a dog knows to thank its master-Hugo was too cruel.

“Gratitude?” Hugo turned back, anguish creeping into his expression. “I was willing to compromise

even after learning the truth, but now that I know he killed my father, why should I be grateful to my

enemy?” He had lost his usual composure, consumed by hatred.

After Hugo left, Dustan was left in shock and anguish, while Pearl grappled with mixed emotions.

“Don’t let the sadness get to you, Mister Dustan. I’m sure Hugo is blinded by anger and will eventually

come to understand

you.”

Hugo had carried these feelings for a long time, and what happened last night was just a catalyst for

his outburst. It was clear now why he had been so eager to marry Pearl-he had his eyes on those

shares.

With Pearl now in a relationship with Richard, Hugo no longer needed to pretend, revealing his true

intentions.

“I hope so. I wonder what those Lawson Enterprises b*stards had said to Hughie to make him believe

that I was responsible for his parents’ deaths.”

As Dustan began to cough violently, Pearl quickly fetched some tissues, and they came back stained

with blood.

“You’re coughing up blood because you’re so agitated, Mister Dustan,” she remarked.

Seeing the bloodstains on the tissues, Dustan struggled to breathe through his fury before ultimately

blacking out.
