He Stole Me From My Deadbeat Husband-Chapter 430
Chapter 430: Chapter 430
Henry could not believe what this old man spouted just now. He said it as if it was something as normal as breathing. He lumped Katherine, an obviously beautiful and independent lady, together with a whore who drugged a man into having sex with her, so she could have a better life.
Marlon knew Henry’s patience was already thin, and his words were too much for him.
But Marlon knew he needed to get his points across, or else Henry would fall deeper into his mad love.
"I get it. You are still young and inexperienced, so it’s easy for that cunning bitch to manipulate you into devoting yourself," Marlon said. "That’s why I’ve been going easy on you. You are still redeemable compared to James, who will ruin the family’s company and reputation just for her."
"Redeemable?"
"Yes, I can still teach you to be a good heir. But first, you must stay far away from that woman, and then you will inherit the business," Marlon explained. "In fact, I’ve changed my mind. I don’t need her useless baby to torture. Just ditch her completely, and I will transfer everything to you."
Henry’s hand began to tremble as he realized that he was also part of the heinous plan to hurt Katherine.
He was blind and depressed back then, so he also believed what Sarah said about Kate.
That she was a seducer who manipulated James into loving her for money.
And she was going to find another way to get into Henry’s pants just so she could find a replacement for James.
It was such a huge shock for Henry because he treasured his brother a lot, and to see him die because of this particular woman was too much for him to bear.
"Son, it’s not too late. Once you inherit everything and become a Duke, I know you will be good at running the businesses," Marlon tried to convince his son.
"Pfft—hahaha!" Henry began to laugh as he kept staring at his bastard father, who seemed so confident that he would inherit everything and his family would be just fine.
Marlon frowned, "Why are you laughing?"
"Oh, I’m just laughing at you for being so naive!" Henry laughed harder as he found the situation to be ridiculously stupid. "Do you really think I will work to better that company? I think your mind has caught up to your age, Marlon."
Marlon’s frown grew deeper, "I don’t follow you. What do you mean, Son?"
Henry stopped laughing when Marlon called him his son. His eyes deepened, and Marlon noticed the maliciousness hidden beneath those green eyes that Henry inherited from his father.
The corner of Henry’s lips tilted up, and he replied coldly, "The only reason for me to accept that ridiculous agreement we had back then was so I could inherit everything from you, and I will burn it to the ground."
"W—What do you mean? Why would you—"
"I don’t think you understand, Marlon. I fucking despise you," Henry added. "I despise you and Penny so much for killing my brother. I also despise you for throwing my real mother, Dahlia, to the mental hospital."
"I despise you so much, and I can’t wait to burn everything to ashes," Henry grinned as he was satisfied seeing his father’s cold expression begin to crack. "That’s why I agreed to get Kate’s baby because I want to see you crumble after witnessing the destruction of a long family heritage and businesses. You will be the one who gets nothing in the end, and I wish I could see you die out of a heart attack because of that."
Marlon could not fathom the idea that Henry said just now. His already pale face began to get even paler, "Y—You, you mean that you have been—"
"Yes, I have been planning this for a long time," Henry said. "It was through Katherine that I realized there is no point of revenge when I have her as my utmost priority. Also, my brother won’t be happy knowing that I am hurting the woman he loves, and Dahlia had grown so fond of Kate that she even took Kate’s side right now. She even prefers to visit Kate more than me."
"Dahlia is fond of that bitch?!" Marlon’s eyes widened. He missed his beloved Dahlia a lot. He was old now, and the only woman that lingered in his mind and heart was Dahlia.
It would be a blessing if Dahlia could come and visit him.
In fact, Marlon would be happy to get a call. It was the least he could get in his twilight days.
Henry knew that his father had a weak spot for Dahlia, his real wife, the woman he truly loved, not the whore he accidentally impregnated.
So Henry wanted to torture him with the reality, "Dahlia treats Kate as part of the family already. She wants Kate to be her daughter, even if Kate and I can’t be together. Maybe it’s because she longs for a daughter who can understand her?"
Marlon was attacked by one bad news after another. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
First, the last son had told him that he had no intention of taking care of the family’s businesses after inheriting it.
Second, Henry told him Dahlia preferred Kate so much, even though Dahlia had never shown any interest in Sarah.
Dahlia always treated Sarah in a lukewarm manner. She treated Sarah like she was another noble lady from a faraway place who needed to be shown respect and courtesy, but not more than that.
No matter how hard Sarah tried to impress Dahlia, she would never change her opinion.
’And he’s telling me this bitch Katherine could steal Dahlia’s heart?!’ Marlon was still shocked by the revelation. There were only two possible answers for this: either Kate was a master manipulator, or she was truly a good woman.
’No, what am I thinking? How could I think of that bitch as a good woman?’ Marlon blamed himself for being gullible. "Sarah warned me many times there is this type of woman who acts like she is the purest maiden, even though she is a wretched woman who deserves to rot in hell, and I know damn well Katherine is that type of woman."
"Did Sarah really tell you that?" Henry chuckled. "Then let me call Dahlia now, see what she has in mind about Katherine and Sarah."
