Chapter 1875
Under the dark, gloomy sky, the moon hung high in the night, exuding an eerie light.
Logan arrived at the study on the second floor of the old residence, as agreed. Liam had already been waiting there, his shadow cast on the ground, looking like a demon from hell, here for revenge. "Dad, as your son, I've never expected you to be so heartless to me."
Liam sat casually on the sofa, smiling coldly. "I've always respected you. Even if my contribution to the company was not much, I still put in decades of work. Isn't it too cruel to kick me aside because I became crippled?"
Logan sensed something amiss and tried to open the door, but it would not budge.
"Save your energy. Without my word, don't even think of taking a step outside the house." Liam held a cigarette in his mouth but suddenly remembered that he could not light it himself, so he gritted his teeth and put it back.
Logan's back was covered in a layer of cold sweat, and he immediately shouted, "Secretary Blackthorn... Secretary Blackthorn!"
At this moment, the door opened.
"Mr. Hoffman, Secretary Blackthorn is here."
Liam's secretary, Lewis, had a face full of blood as he smiled sinisterly and threw Mr. Blackthorn's body in front of Logan, like a pile of trash. "But unfortunately, he could not serve you anymore."
Immense fear engulfed Logan. He almost blacked out and roared at Liam, trembling, "How could you kill someone?! Are you mad?! What do you want to do?!"
"I know what I'm doing. Even if I'm mad, it's because you and Ryan drove me into a corner."
Liam shrugged nonchalantly. "Besides, isn't it just murder? What's the big deal? When you expanded the Hoffman Group's business back in the day, didn't you shed a lot of blood too? Now that you're old and senile, have you forgotten that you were once a wolf who wouldn't hesitate to devour your enemies?"
"Liam!"
Liam took out the documents he prepared and threw them on the table. "Sign these. I'm not interested in the shares anymore. If your grandson is willing to clean up that mess, Jet him. As long as you agree to transfer all the assets under your name to me, I'll spare your life out of consideration that we've been father and son for fifty years."
Upon hearing his words, Logan paled, and his teeth chattered loudly.
Logan was indeed old, but throughout his life, he had never been afraid of trouble. He had never lowered his head in hopes of surviving, nor had he let others humiliate him just to save his own life!
If he did, how could he thrive during chaotic times? How could he build such a large business and become one of the four great families?
Besides, the person threatening and intimidating him was his own son, whom he raised. There was no reason for a father to bow to his son!
"Hahaha!" Logan pointed at Liam,
laughing wildly. "You pretended to be a dutiful son in front of me, humbling yourself for so many years, but now, you've finally revealed your true colors! But I'm still one step ahead of you. Before you called me, I transferred all my assets and shares to Ryan Ryan is now the head of the Hoffman family, the highest decision-maker in the Hoffman Group! And you? You're not even qualified to get the scraps!"
Liam sprang up, his eyes bulging in hatred. "Old fucker! Even at death's door, you still dare to lie to me?!"
"Lie to you? Do I need to? At this
point, I might as well tell you." Logan slammed his walking cane on the floor and glared at him. "Even if is not alive anymore, I've never thought of letting you become the Hoffman Group's successor The one I always preferred was Ryan, and the one I trained was always..."
Before his voice fell, Liam leaped over the coffee table, rushed to Logan, and stabbed him in the gut fiercely.
Blood gushed out, dripping to the floor under his feet.
Logan's body twitched, and he clutched his wound as he fell to his knees, his vision blurring and losing focus...Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Liam was not the son he raised. He was a seed of evil he had planted since childhood, finally growing into a monster devoid of humanity in the pursuit of power, killing without blinking an eye! "Dad, you won't even give me the Hoffman Group after Finn is dead!"
