A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 718

“Ernie, you—” Kasper Hughes waved his hand and he was feeling weak. “Marley, you go and check it out. I also want to know if there is anything weird in it! Ernie, keep in mind that you are from the Hughes family, you can't do something bad to the Hughes Group!”

“Dad! Look at what you said, it is for sure that I belong to the Hughes family. My surname is Hughes. I have never doubt about it at all. How can I do something bad to the Hughes Group? I will only protect the Hughes Group!” Ernie spoke in a tone with a bit of joking and playfulness which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

Sylvie didn't know what he meant but she felt something was wrong with him when she listened to his words.

“It’s great that you can remember, I really hope that you can stop being playful, do something good and proper. Can’t you learn from your cousin?” Kasper had exhorted him repeatedly but his own son was just like a foolish ruffian.

“Yes! Dad! I will really learned from my... cousin!” Ernie smiled faintly and his smile looked very disdainful. “Maybe I should also marry the Mccarthy family. Oh! By the way! Sylvie, don't you still have a sister? How about letting her marry me? Then our two families will be really close!”

“Ernie!” Kasper exclaimed angrily. “What stupid thing are you talking of!”

Everyone knew that Miss Bonnie was domineering and had a bad temper. If she married to Ernie, it was sure that there would be a big trouble for the Hughes family. He had been worried a lot for his son for his whole life and so if he really got a terrible daughter-in-law, then he would be very close to death.

“Dad! Don't be angry! I didn't say that I must marry Miss Bonnie, right?” Ernie met was very observant and just changed his words immediately when he saw his father getting angry.

Marley looked at Ernie and said sternly, “Ernie, I will investigate it clearly. In addition, Kasper, I will also tell you that my dad has already said that he will not care about you all anymore in the future. He won’t care anything anymore. He had given full authority to me and my decision will be his decision. If Ernie and Teddie gamble again, it’s their own business! From now on, it has nothing to do with me and it has nothing to do with the Hughes Group.”

Kasper raised his head and looked at Marley. He spoke deliberately. “Marley, don't worry. I won't let Ernie gamble again! If he gambles again, I will jump directly from this Hughes Building to apologize for death!"

“Dad!” Ernie was taken aback for a moment.

Marley had never seen Kasper say such heavy word, it seemed that he was really anxious for this time.

“Ernie, behave yourself! I also can't take care of your Teddie’s affairs anymore! We are all unfilial sons of the Hughes family. Teddie, behave yourself!” Kasper’s eyes showed his mood.

“Dad! You are not going to care about me?” Ernie suddenly showed a pity expression. At that moment, his face changed so quickly that no one had expected it.

“Kasper, what do you mean?” Teddie Hughes didn't react for a long time.

“Teddie, please go back and don't gamble anymore!” Marley said. “I will investigate it clearly!”

“Ernie, let's go back!” Kasper glanced at his son with an indescribable expression in his eyes. There was a little choppy in his eyes and he looked a little unbelievable.

“Dad, if you don't care about me and if I was really killed by someone, you will have no descendant anymore!” Ernie said again.

“Ernie, if you had known the ending of today, would you still do that in the past? Even if the matter of the 300 million is true, I really have no face to ask for! No one is allowed to go to the hospital and disturb Aiden!” Kasper left the conference room after he finished speaking.

“Marley, what do you all actually mean? Why can't I understand a single sentence? The matter of the 300 million is fake?” Teddie was still puzzled. “Did you say that someone made a trap and let me in?”

“Teddie, please go back first!” Marley said in a deep voice.

Seeing that he was not saying anything, Teddie stood up, slammed his sleeve and left.

At that time, there were only three people left in the conference room.

After Kasper left, Ernie’s face expression changed instantly from a pitiful look to a fearless look.

Sylvie’s gaze kept looking at Ernie. She did not miss every single expression on his face. She just felt that he changed his face too quickly and there was always a dark surge in his eyes.

He probably felt Sylvie’s gaze and he turned his head to look at Sylvie. His eyes were sharp and full of playfulness. “If you don't want to help, you can just say no. You don’t need to trick and frame me. I, Ernie Hughes, dare to admit the things that are done by myself! I am not like you all who hide and tuck, play tricks and pretend to be good!”

Sylvie also looked back at him calmly. She spoke out her thoughts so boldly but actually she was just guessing. But now it seemed that everything seemed to be really wrong. Most importantly, she was doubtful of Ernie. But what was the reason?

“The person himself is clear that who is playing tricks!” Sylvie said calmly.

“Yeah! I love to hear what Sylvie say. Whoever plays tricks will know it clearly!” Ernie raised his eyebrows, stared at her eyes and said word by word, “Sylvie, you are so smart. When you become the savior of the Hughes family, you are having a portrait of an empress and have crushed a Marley who is a cold and masculine man into a thousand years bottom!”

“Ernie!” Hearing his words, Marley stopped him immediately with a cold voice.

“Yeah! Marley, don't you like to hear me say this? Don't you think this woman is too scary?”

“You don't have to sow discord here. I have a very close relationship with Sylvie. I don't need you to worry about it. You should just go back and think about how to settle this matter.”

“Uh! Deep love between the husband and wife!” Ernie smiled softly. “Yeah, I have to hurry up to find a way to escape, otherwise it will be a big problem if I were chased by someone and the person just kills me and destroys my corpse to perish the evidence!”

Marley refused to give a comment and looked at him lightly.

Ernie shrugged and walked out. When he walked to the door, he turned his head suddenly and said to Sylvie, “Sylvie, the thing that I told you just now, think about it!”

Sylvie stiffened her back of a sudden. She knew what Ernie meant. The words he said just now was ‘How about to be my woman?’
