Edward Marshall was furious, the veins on his temples throbbing, “Daniel Marshall, you have no respect for your elders, you are the disgrace of the Marshall Family!”
From Daniel’s hardened face, a sneer appeared, accompanied by light laughter.
His eagle sharp eyes pierced through with an imposing sharpness, in scorn, he gazed at Edward, “Mr. James Marshall, I finally understand. We are family, yet Mr.James Marshall attempts to harm me without consideration. Turns out, you are the one backing him. You are the one who failed in his upbringing, you indulge him, covering for him, in your eyes, he is the good descendant.”
“Daniel, you’re talking nonsense out of line!”
“Your son indulges in pleasures outside, you don’t care. Your son commits illegal acts, you turn a blind eye. Your son wants to take over the Marshall Corporation, isn’t this also Mr. James Marshall’s idea?”
Edward’s heart jumped, but he still managed to keep his composure, hiding his internal turmoil, cunningly deflected, “Daniel, no matter what you say, I won’t fall for your tricks, you’ll not divide the bond between my elder brother and me.”
Daniel started slowly, his deep voice yet commanded an overwhelming aura, permeating a dangerous vibe.
“If Mr. James Marshall wishes to see the evidence, I can present it to you clearly and understandably now. If not, we can get a judge to settle this, or even report to the police.
Moreover, please don’t bring up feelings, ever since I came to my senses, all I’ve seen is that you and my grandfather never had any sentimental attachment, so stop trying to elevate yourself, stop seeking attention in front of us.”
“You…you…” Angered, Edward couldn’t speak, his throat seemed choked and uncomfortable.
“For the sake of my grandfather’s health and Mr. James Marshall’s safety, it is best if you stay put and stop bothering my grandfather with his recuperation. Only by keeping to yourself can you enjoy your old age peacefully or else, you might end up pitiful like Mr. James Marshall.”
Being guilty, Edward had nothing to say, he took a venomous glance at Daniel and stormed off.
Before leaving the hospital, Edward didn’t forget to visit the director to clarify the condition of his elder brother.
Only after the director had explained to him that patients with severe brain damage could show such symptoms, did Edward leave the hospital thoughtfully.
Subsequently, he called Bella Thompson.
“My elder brother doesn’t remember me anymore and when he sees me, he seems scared. I carefully observed his reaction, it didn’t seem like he was faking. I repeatedly asked the director, the director said these responses are normal. It will require some time and detailed inspection before the recovery outcome can be further confirmed.”
Bella still held reservations, “How does the doctor explain him only remembering Michael, Daniel, and Olivia Jenkins?”
“The doctor explained, because when my brother woke up, he only saw those three, thus, their impression on him is the deepest. Paired with their days and nights of companionship, they have gained his trust, hence, his current bias towards them. Overall, it is due to the first response to the feeling of security.”
“Thank you, Mr. James Marshall, for running this errand, I will always remember your kindness.”
“It would be great if Matthew could take charge, Daniel has a deplorable character, he should be kicked out of the Marshall family.”
“Our Matthew isn’t that fortunate, thank you for the high regard, Mr.James Marshall.”
“Bella, you have the essence of a matron, that cheap woman is not worth looking at. Also… James Marshall has just landed and there’s been no news. Would you let Michael know? It’s a familial matter, there’s no need to make it so unpleasant.”
