Chapter 253 Aftermath\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis didn\u2019t respond to Michael. He only glanced at the lawyer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
420 Free Come\u00a0<\/p>\n
The lawyer stepped forward. \u201cMr. Michael, years ago, you signed an agreement stating that you wouldn\u2019t contest a single dollar of the Lincolns\u2018 assets.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael\u2019s face went pale. He clenched his teeth in resentment. \u201cFine. Fine. Curtis, you win this one!\u00a0<\/p>\n
After that, Michael turned to Denton and smiled. \u201cIt\u2019s fine. Denton is my son. My son is now in t Lincoln Group. Lincoln Group is booming. Shares are what really matter!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael stood there smugly, as if leaning on Denton made him the rightful master of the L \u201cWhere\u2019s your mom?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Only then did he remember that Juliet wasn\u2019t there.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMom already went back to her hometown,\u201d Denton said quietly. \u201cShe said she wanted to go back and live well with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael froze for a moment, then frowned. \u201cWhat does that mean? Why did she suddenly go back? That idiot.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael pointed at Denton. \u201cHurry up and have someone bring her back. Then buy us a villa in Harborton. It can\u2019t be worse than the Lincoln Estate. At the very least, it has to be worth ten million. Hire a few maids. They need to be young. I already have someone in mind. When the time comes, invite her over and pay her well. Her monthly salary can\u2019t be under 20 thousand a month.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael was already issuing orders.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The \u201cmaid\u201d he was talking about was the young woman he\u2019d been set up with and slept with at a nightclub.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton\u2019s gaze grew darker by the second, but Michael didn\u2019t notice at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd find me a butler too. After all, we\u2019re the ones in charge of Lincoln Group now,\u201d Michael said, casting a mocking look at Ernest. \u201cWe don\u2019t need leeches who bite the hand that feeds them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton continued to look at Michael coldly, without responding.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you hear me? Go get it done,\u201d Michael said impatiently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton looked straight at him. \u201cDad, since you don\u2019t own any Lincoln shares, you shouldn\u2019t benefit from. the Lincolns either. Go back and live a good life with Mom.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael froze, as if he hadn\u2019t heard him clearly. \u201cWhat did you just say?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad, go back to your hometown and live properly with Mom. A while ago, the neighbor from back home contacted me. He said you secretly gambled and lost nearly 100 grand. He\u2019s already filed a lawsuit against you. You\u2019d better go back and cover that hole. If you can\u2019t pay it back, you\u2019ll be listed as a defaulter. Your spending will be restricted. No planes, no high\u2013speed trains, no long\u2013distance buses\u2026 For the rest of your life, you and Mom can just stay in that small town.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Denton turned to Ernest. \u201cPlease escort my dad to the airport and see him off.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
+20 Fres Cos\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael started shaking all over. He stared at Denton in disbelief. \u201cWhat do you mean? You ungrateful brat. What are you talking about? I raised you, and now you\u2019re teaming up with outsiders to scheme against me? Denton! You animal!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ernest signaled to the bodyguards, whe\u00a0<\/p>\n
dragged Michael out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael kept cursing as he was pulled away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Denton didn\u2019t react at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana instinctively tightened her grip on Curtis\u2019s wrist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton was only 19. The way he dealt with his parents was ruthless and decisive. He clearly had methods. At the same time, it was obvious this was the Lincolns\u2018 bloodline\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had that bone\u2013deep edge that made people wary.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was only 19. Right now, he stood on the same side as Curtis. But what about in the future?\u00a0<\/p>\n
When his wings were fully grown and his power overwhelming, would he still be able to stand with Curtis like this?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis\u2026 I\u2019m sorry. My parents won\u2019t come to Harborton again to bother you,\u201d Denton said apologetically to Curtis. After that, he bowed toward Harold\u2019s portrait.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis looked at Denton meaningfully.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At 19, the young man already seemed to be showing his edge.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After Harold was laid to rest, Curtis stayed at the Lincoln Estate with Adriana. With Harold gone, there was a lot to take care of there, along with the transfer of the inheritance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton didn\u2019t stay. Urged by senior management, he went straight to Lincoln Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t yet have the ability to rule on his own. But with Harold\u2019s death, he had to step forward as the group\u2019s leader and suppress the unrest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton handled the meeting with ease. A young man no one had believed in won everyone over after just one meeting. Everyone felt he was destined for greatness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even Curtis\u2019s people at the company secretly recorded videos for him, warning him to be careful with Denton, instead of feeding a wolf that would eventually bite him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton truly had the same presence Curtis once did.\u00a0<\/p>\n
More than that, Denton carried a ruthlessness that Curtis had deliberately buried because of his childhood\u00a0<\/p>\n
trauma.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 253 Aftermath\u00a0<\/p>\n
After finishing Harold\u2019s affairs, Curtis decided it was time to settle things with Chandler.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As long as that man remained with the Bartons, Adriana would never truly be safe.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Curtis knew Adriana wasn\u2019t the kind of woman who could turn herself into a thorn\u2013covered survivor in constant schemes. And Curtis didn\u2019t want her to become that person either.\u00a0<\/p>\n
