Chapter 151 Announce Your Engagement
Could it be…?
It seemed unlikely, but if it wasn’t Arthur, it could only be him.
Frederick trusted Richard. After all, Richard had been by his side for years and knew exactly how to handle things.
“General, I’ve been closely monitoring Mr. Arthur Hawthorne’s movements recently. There shouldn’t be any mistake,” Richard added when he noticed Frederick remaining silent.
Richard understood the complex relationship between Frederick and Arthur. Both were members of the Hawthorne family, but their roles couldn’t have been more different. As the son of National Defense Commander Nathan Hawthorne, Frederick commanded military authority, while Arthur controlled the family’s financial interests, operating seamlessly between the legal and underground worlds.
In the current presidential campaign, Arthur was Frederick’s greatest rival. From the moment the campaign began, Frederick had kept a close eye on Arthur’s every move.
“I know. Keep monitoring him,” Frederick said, nodding.
“Yes, General,” Richard replied respectfully and focused on

An hour later, they arrived at the Hawthorne Manor. By now, it was already past midnight.
“General, are you sure you want to go in now? Perhaps it would be better to wait until morning.” Richard hesitated, offering a gentle reminder.
It was late, and the family was likely asleep.
“Now,” Frederick replied firmly.
Regardless of what he did, Nathan would never look at him with favor. That had been decided the moment Frederick was born.
“Understood. Should I accompany you inside?” Richard asked, worried.
Nobody understood Frederick’s position in the Hawthorne family better than Richard.
The respect Frederick had earned in the family was due solely to his relentless efforts and sacrifices over the years.
Frederick had fought countless life–or–death battles to carve out his place.
It was during one of those battles that Andrew had taken a bullet meant for Frederick, giving his life to save him. This tragedy forged the connection between Frederick and Andrew’s two sisters, Anna and Caroline.

To this day. Richard couldn’t understand why Nathan treated his two sons so differently. Arthur basked in privilege, while Frederick had to fight tooth and nail for every ounce of respect.
Richard always felt that it was unfair to Frederick.
“It’s not necessary. Head back and pick me up in the morning, Frederick said as he opened the car door and stepped out.
“Yes, sir.” Richard didn’t argue, started the car, and left.
He knew he couldn’t do much by accompanying Frederick other than offering moral support.
Frederick entered the manor and walked straight to the living room. Taking a seat on the sofa, he pulled out his phone and dialed Nathan.
He knew Nathan was upstairs, likely asleep with Arthur’s mother, Jane.
At his age, Nathan adhered strictly to a health–conscious routine. Without fail, he would go to bed at precisely 10:30 every night.
Frederick considered going upstairs to knock on Nathan’s door if the call didn’t go through, but to his surprise, the phone was answered after just two rings.
“Hello.”

Nathan didn’t respond with so much as a word. He simply hung
Ten minutes later, Nathan descended the staircase with Jane by
his side.
Frederick hadn’t expected Jane to join. Unless something truly significant was at stake, Jane rarely involved herself in matters concerning him.
“I’m already aware of what Diana has done,” Nathan began before Frederick could speak. “I’ve given the orders–effective immediately, she’s to remain confined at home for reflection. She can leave only once she’s demonstrated genuine remorse.”
“Understood. Thank you, Father.” Frederick nodded.
