Chapter 1629
20 years ago, Joseph's feelings for Mandy had already been "sentenced to death" once. This time, Edgar had just declared thesame sentence over him.
"I'm already 80. After a bout of illness, it's all clear to me now. There may have been grudges from the past. But | can't bebothered to be ensnared in all that anymore.”
Edgar coughed a few times. He continued in a strong voice, "Moving forward, stop reprimanding Julien because of Mandy andthe Taylors. It is fine as long as our family doesn't make it apparent that we are associated with the Taylor family.
"The KS Group dominates Belbanks. Winston's children are also starting to go places. | heard that he has a precious daughter.She's called Alyssa or something.novelbin
"She is already discussing marriage with the president of Beckett Group in Solana City. If their families end up having a marriagealliance, no one will stand a chance of going against them.
“If you provoke the Taylors, even if Winston turns a blind eye to you, his other children and Mandy might launch an attack againstyou. | have been toiling my whole life. | do not wish to spend my declining years witnessing fights between families. Let's justleave this matter as it is.”
Edgar hung up.
"Dad, are you willing to allow Mandy to be Winston's mistress? She doesn't have a legitimate status. And people are talkingbehind her back. Despite all these, you're still unwilling to fulfill my wishes?"
Joseph's face was pale and frigid. He looked like a block of ice that was about to crack. "Is it because | am an adopted child? Isthat why you think | am not good enough for your daughter?"
Suddenly, an urgent knocking sounded at the door.
"Come in," Joseph said.
Aidan rushed into the room. He was frantic. "Dad! |... | have bad news! Julien jumped out of the window and escaped!"Joseph's eyes widened.
He rushed to Julien's room with the butler and secretary in tow.
The balcony window was wide open. The chilling wind was blowing into the room. It sent a chill down their spines.“Have you looked around for him?" Joseph's voice was shaky. He was terrified.
"Yes, | have!"
Aidan was so fearful that his speech became incoherent. "Julien was nowhere to be seen. Downstairs, in the back garden. He'snot there!"
He was nowhere to be seen.That meant that he hadn't died. He had indeed escaped. What a relief!"This is the fifth floor. How did he jump down?" Joseph peered out at the surroundings from the balcony.
The butler explained, "Mr. Joseph, I've got some men to look into this. Mr. Julien likely leaped over to the tree opposite. Then, heslid down along the tree trunk. There are quite a number of broken branches at the bottom of the tree."
"That crazy man! Did he want to fall to his death?" Joseph's fear had now turned into anger. A sharp pain shot through his palmas he slammed his hand on the railing.
This son of his was a stubborn mule.
He was locked up behind a grill door. He was being oppressed. Yet, he feared nothing.

"Go ahead and rest if you're tired." Jasper lowered his eyes. He picked up the cup of coffee and took a sip.
Xavier sighed, "Actually, you could have just sent me to get this done. Then, you could have spent more time with Madam. Whydo you have to take this arduous journey yourself?"
"Jameson is as sly as a viper. He is apack of lies. But he said that this wasa drug that was researched ait |patentetilis Mosgravia. He alsoclaimed that it was only meant forroyalty and the privileged. Thesewere all true." The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!
Jasper leaned his tired body backward, highlighting the muscles on his neck.
"Thus, | cannot take this matter lightly. | must tend to it personally. Perhaps that will give us a better chance.”
