“Father favored you since we were kids and gave you all the good things. What about me? Every time I asked father for something, he told me I was a good boy and should figure it out for myself!”
“Wasn't my mother his legitimate wife? Am I not his son?” As long as he thought of his father's preference for John, his tone became grimmer, “But he didn't love my mother at all, and he didn't love me!”
Jonathan didn’t understand it when he was a child. He just saw his father bring back another woman to the manor, giving all his love to her. He asked his mother who that woman was, and his mother just shed tears.
Jonathan saw that no matter what that woman did to try to get out of the manor, even took something to hit his father, his father still spoiled her. Gradually, his father no longer cared for him or his mother.
Then the woman got pregnant and he saw a look of joy on his father's face that he had never seen before. His father told him that he was going to have a younger brother and that he would have to take good care of his brother in the future. He didn't understand anything and agreed to do so.
Until later, his mother committed suicide.
It was that night that Jonathan came to his senses. He realized that there was something called preference. His father favored Scarlett and John, and didn’t care about him and his mother at all.
Jonathan took a deep breath and stared at John with a grim gaze, “For the past 20 years, I've wanted to kill you every minute of every day. But then I thought, killing you will only get a momentary pleasure, I want to slowly torture you. So I poisoned you to see you suffer and die a miserable death!”
That time Burnell met Kanna in Yorkshire, he wanted to ask Sofia to find someone to kill Kanna as well, but he was afraid of Louis's power in Yorkshire and did not dare to act rashly.
Besides, Kanna and Takuya had not yet divorced, if Kanna died, Takuya in Country R would certainly block his business by all means, so he had to give up the plan.
John seemed to ignore Jonathan's anger and dissatisfaction, and only repeated what he had just said, “I don't want anything, just give me back the child...”(cough sound)
John suddenly bent over and coughed violently with his hand against his lips, his face unusually painful.
When he spread his palm, Jonathan saw the blood on his palm. Jonathan suddenly put on a cold smile, “I heard that Justin successfully developed the drug and gave it to you, yet you gave away your life-saving drug for a woman!”
“You even know about this, it seems that you have placed a lot of people in Yorkshire.” John's internal organs were in extreme pain. He knew he couldn't hold out for long, so he forced himself to endure the pain and revealed a peaceful face.
John wiped off the blood on his palm, “Is the contract ready? If not, give me a pen and paper and I will write it myself.”
Jonathan looked at John gloomily and turned to speak to the butler beside him.
The butler nodded and turned to leave.
Jonathan did not speak again, but sat down at the table and finished the rest of the breakfast. About five minutes later, he had just put down his knife and fork and wiped his mouth with a paper towel when the butler returned with a contract.
Jonathan looked at the contract, then handed it to John, not forgetting to scorch him, “John, the children she gave birth were not yours. The connections that father went to so much trouble to pave for you, and inheritance, you really don't want them?”
“Even if I have it, with the grudge between us, you will not let me go,” John said indifferently. He didn't even go through the contract, but turned directly to the end, signed and hand-stamped in one go.
After signing the contract, John did not rush to return it to Jonathan, “I want to see the child.”
He knew that Jonathan would not hurt the child before achieving the goal, but the baby was snatched away right after birth, and he was afraid that something would happen to the child.
If something did happen to the child, he would destroy Jonathan with him!
Seeing John like this, Jonathan hooked a cold smile, turned around, and went upstairs. John then followed him.
After going upstairs, John found two strong men of nearly one meter nine guarding in front of the bedroom, so he concluded that Jonathan would not return the child to him so easily. In his current condition, he can’t deal with Jonathan, let alone these two strong men. He had to find a way to get around Jonathan and wait for Louis to come over.
After John followed Jonathan into the bedroom, one of the strong men also entered the bedroom.
