Chapter 821
While Frank took Kat out on a joyride in the Maserati, Ned Janko had returned to his old house.As he rushed toward his father's bedroom, he immediately found his brother's six-year old son, Hal, outside the door.Hal was playing with his water gun with the servants and promptly trained the gun on Ned's face when he saw him.
"Hahaha!!!" He clapped his thighs as he left Ned's face and clothes soaking wet, even insulting him with a limerick. "What exactlyhappened to Ned? Well, his stud kicked him right in the head!"
"You little...!" Ned glared at the child furiously even as he pushed his wet bangs off his face.
He certainly could slap the child for his insults, but he could not—f he laid a finger on his nephew, his own brother would justbeat him up instead.
“Hmph,” he snorted, gritting his teeth and ignoring the child as he strode into his father's bedroom. His father's health was moreurgent, after all.
“Haha! Coward!" Hal laughed as he left. -
Inside the room filled with traditional decorations, a man with ashen hair and a purple face, his eyes tightly shut as he lay in bed,unconscious.
It was Ned's father and the current head of the Janko family, Ciril Janko.
Yed Janko, Ned's brother, was the tall, scrawny man standing beside Ciril's bed.
"Where have you been?! Father's been poisoned!" Yed's eyes flashed sharply as he wheeled on Ned.Ned flinched, trembling and sweating bullets as his face turned pale. "I-| was just out on a stroll—"
“Out on a stroll?!" Yed strode up and seized Ned by the collar, growling icily, "Is there really such a perfect coincidence? Youstepped out for a moment, and Dad ended up poisoned?!"
"We're right. He's definitely the one who poisoned Ciril... No one else has a motive." The woman sitting by Ciril's bed and holdinghis hand spoke up just then.
She was Paula Mill, Ciril's second wife whom he had married after the passing of Yed and Ned's mother.
Her tears were gushing even as she glared at Ned. "You're holding a grudge because your father chose Yed as his successor,don't you? How could you be so selfish?!"
"I-I'm not!"novelbin
Ned could tell immediately that both Yed and Paula were conspiring against him, and reasoning was pointless.
