A Billionaire In Disguise novel Chapter 198

Seeing that her grandfather was struggling to wake from the floor, Catherine rushed over to him. But when she extended her hand towards him, he slapped it away from his face and shouted, "I can get up by myself!"

"Grandpa," Catherine whispered with a look of hurt in her eyes.

"This! All this is your fault! I warned you, and yet you didn't listen to me! "

"How is this my fault?!"

"No one ever listens anymore in this family! But you! You should have! If you did, your idiotic cousin wouldn't have gone this far!"

"What?"

Frowning, Catherine stepped back as she watched her grandfather stand to his feet. Then she darted her eyes away from him, striving to suppress the hurt she felt.

"You!" Mr. Barlow harshly said, pointing his trembling finger at Charles. "It was you who set me up, and made Quincy get me drunk in the name of 'us hanging out,' and tricked me into signing these papers!"

"Set you up? I didn't force you to drink the alcohol, grandfather! And no one forced your hands to sign those papers!" Charles casually uttered and narrowed his eyes.

Staring at his grandson, Mr. Barlow's eyes were shining with fury as he shouted, "That's because Quincy lied about what the papers were about, and he waited for me to get drunk before asking me to sign those papers, so I can't tell what they were!"

Then he clenched his fist and lashed out, "How was I supposed to guess that our family lawyer who has worked with this family for years would betray me in such a manner, and work with you to con your cousin out of the family properties!"

"That sounds like a 'you' problem, grandpa!"

"You bastard! Stop calling me your grandfather! I have no disappointment of a grandson like you!"

Anger flared across Charles' face as he coldly glared at his grandfather and said, "According to the deeds that are in my name, this mansion and everything under the Barlow name is mine, so be careful how you speak to me, old man! I am not afraid to toss you on the street."

A fit of helpless anger simmered in Madam Barlow, and she shouted, "Charles, watch how you speak to your grandfather!"

"He gets to renounce me, but I can not do the same!" Charles coldly said, throwing her a hard look.

"You brat!" Mr. Barlow harshly uttered. "You think you can put up an attitude after stealing from this family, you better get your sick brain checked!"

Keeping silent, Charles's eyes darkened as he watched his grandfather walk back to the couch and picked up his phone.

"Quincy, you fool! Just wait! I will sue your ass!" Mr. Barlow said, strolling through his phone. "And you, Charles, you can rest assured that you will be joining Jeff very soon!"

A frown flickers across Richard's forehead as he glared at his grandfather, annoyed by his remark.

Then he swayed his icy gaze on Catherine and thought, 'Why the innocent expression, cousin! You are no saint in all of this! Because of you, my brother is in jail! Every time I see that face of yours, something snaps in me!'

After listening to Mr. Quincy's number ring for the sixth time, Mr. Barlow felt more enraged, and yet, he trembled in fear as he searched for the Elite Law Firm number."

The line rang for a moment. Then a lady answered and said, "Hello, this is Julia on the call. How can I help you?"

"Is Mr. Quincy in the building?" Mr. Barlow calmly uttered, suppressing his emotions.

"I'm sorry to inform you, sir, but Mr. Quincy recently quit his job at the firm."

"What!!"

A look of concern mixed with fear clouded Madam Barlow's eyes as she stared intensely at her husband.

"Do you know where he is now?" Mr. Barlow asked, struggling to stop his hand from shaking.

"No, sir. But the word around is that he left the country. That's all I know. I'm sorry, sir." Julia calmly uttered from the other end of the line.

Without saying another word, Mr. Barlow ended the call. Then he stared back at Charles and coldly uttered, "What did you do to make Quincy abandon his entire career and leave the city?!"

Although he so desperately wanted to take credit for that, Charles didn't know the answer, and he found himself worrying about who he was working with, and how powerful they were.
