Chapter 401: Chapter 401: Knowing the Truth, Baron Stuart’s Counterattack
 

He had investigated the girl named Emily Walker. Regardless of her feelings toward Baron Stuart, she initially approached him with ulterior motives. He could not accept a woman like that joining the Stuart family.

“There’s no need to fake illness and deceive Mr. Stuart. You could just directly send that girl away,” the director, who was an old acquaintance of Zachary Stuart’s, said without restraint.

If Zachary wanted to drive an ordinary girl away, wouldn’t it be a breeze for him? Why go through so much trouble? The old dean really didn’t understand.

Zachary spoke irritably, “I’d love to be straightforward like that, but that damn boy directly threatened me. If I do anything to that girl, he’ll make me lose him as my grandson!”

He was his legitimate grandson; how could Zachary bear to lose him?

“But you can’t just keep faking illness like this. Besides, do you plan to lie here pretending to be sick for the rest of your life?” the old dean asked again.

Zachary sighed, “I don’t want to—” Just as he was about to say something, the door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open, and Baron Stuart walked in with a blank expression on his face.

Seeing him, Zachary’s guilt caused him to purse his lips. After a moment, he regained his composure and asked with a smile, “Baron, when did you arrive?”

Baron Stuart wore a blank expression and spoke with no trace of emotion.

He hated being deceived and used more than anything in his life!

“Since the moment you talked about faking illness,” he said.

Hearing this, Zachary’s expression froze, and he couldn’t come up with anything to say.

He knew his grandson well, the thing he hated the most was being lied to!

“Well … Baron, let me explain—” Although he was unwilling to accept a girl named Emily Walker, he didn’t want to be disliked by his grandson, so he attempted to explain.

But before he could finish his sentence, the door to the hospital room slammed shut with a ‘bang’.

Zachary and the old dean both wore dumbfounded expressions and were left speechless for a time.

Deep down, anyone in this situation would undoubtedly be angry. After all, who could tolerate being deceived and kept in the dark?

Especially not Baron Stuart.

Zachary suddenly realized that he might have unconsciously hurt his beloved grandson.

Baron Stuart left the hospital in a fit of rage and was stopped by Zachary’s men as soon as he reached the front door.

However, as the bodyguard reached out his hand, Baron Stuart countered and knocked him down to the ground. He then snatched the cell phone from the man’s breast pocket and dialed a series of numbers.

“Bring people to the hospital!”

As the words fell, Baron Stuart threw the cell phone viciously to the side. After more than a week of holding back, it had all turned out to be an elaborate scam designed just for him. If his grandfather wanted him to retaliate, then he’d give him what he wanted!

Twenty minutes later, Clayton Howard arrived with two teams of elites, each handpicked from the best of the best.

“I want them all taken down!” Baron Stuart coldly ordered, giving off a murderous aura. He then took the key from Clayton Howard’s hand, drove a black Audi away with a roar.

Zachary’s men tried to intercept them, but Clayton Howard and Baron Stuart’s men surrounded them one by one.

Night gradually fell, covering the entire E City. Baron Stuart drove the black Audi all the way to his private residence.

At this time, Emily Walker was enjoying the dinner prepared by Mrs. Noelle.

After taking just one bite, she heard the sound of the front door being opened.

The only person who could enter without ringing the doorbell was Baron Stuart himself.
