1290 1290: Obsessed With His Nephew

“My father was a controlling man. I could see that he didn’t want Jiamo to be better than him, and he didn’t want his daughter to take over the family. I was the only one who wanted this, because this way, she would be able to stay in the family forever. I believed that with her leading the family, the Hess family would have a brighter future.”

Abrighter future? He only wanted his mother to stay in the Hess family forever.

Zhan Lichuan pursed his lips but he didn’t want to expose his uncle.

Then, El’s tone changed and he looked pissed as he continued.

!!
“Grandfather soon passed away and the one who killed him was Eddie.”

The words that came out of El’s mouth were shocking to both Du Yanzheng and Zhan Lichuan.

Their great grandfather has been truly nice to their mother. He would be the only person who loved their mother sincerely.

“I investigated my grandfather’s death for 5 years. Eddie is a greedy yet tedious man. I only got my hands on the evidence that he killed our grandfather because I got lucky.

“When our grandfather died, our father took over the position as the head of the family, but our grandfather left most of it to Jiamo. Our father was worried that Jiamo would kick him out of his position, which was why he tried to get rid of Jiamo along with the authority that she had.”

With that said, El suddenly looked at Du Yanzheng and said in a cold tone, “You should know that your father wouldn’t have been allowed to join the Hess family, right?”

Du Yanzheng was speechless. What did he mean by that?

Zhan Lichuan corrected him, “That’s our father.”

El turned towards Zhan Lichuan and instantly he looked much happier as he said, “You’re right, Ah Chuan. I’m sorry.”

Du Yanzheng was left speechless once again.

Seeing how Du Yanzheng was being treated differently by his uncle and how there was nothing that he could do about it, Jinqian couldn’t help but laugh.

This uncle was as gentle as the autumn breeze while speaking to Ah Chuan, but he was as cold as ice when speaking to Du Yanzheng. This may be because Ah Chuan looked more like his mother, while Du Yanzheng looked like his father.

El continued on, “Du Bo was a famous scientist in the Centrals, but he had never mentioned anything about his family. All of us thought that he was an ordinary man.

“However, even when they found out that he was the young master of the Du family, the economy in Country Z was still pretty bad, so they were no match for the Hess family.

“Most of the men in the Centrals admired Jiamo and knew that she would be the next head of the family. All of them were hoping that they would be able to join the Hess family. This was why our father had already picked out a man for Jiamo. Even if she took over the Hess family, she would still have to listen to our father’s orders.

“Jiamo knew that our father had been guarding her and she was heart broken. Along with how she knew that the gene lab would definitely bring more trouble to humankind, she suggested her leave as the head of the Hess family, but in exchange with that, she would be marrying Du Bo instead of the man that her father had picked.

“Our father has been trying to find fault in her so that she would be removed from her position. However, Jiamo was perfect. How would he be able to find fault in her? When she was the one who suggested it, our father was more than happy to accept it. He took in Jiamo’s resignation and even removed her name from the family tree.

“Our father even wanted her and Du Bo to continue working at the gene lab, but both of them refused. He took everything that belonged to Jiamo and even removed her name, which was why he no longer forced Jiamo to work for the Hess family.”
