"Mason, don't lie to me!" Duke panicked for a moment, his hands trembling, his eyes filled with red bloodshot, and he sneered, "Hah, you just don't want to admit that I'm part of the Preston family, you don't want to give me the inheritance, that's why! Making up such lies to deceive me!"
Mason shook his head helplessly, looking at him with hopeless eyes, "For such a big matter, the family has sealed files. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see it."
"Who wants to see that bullshit! You're the mighty head of the Preston family, isn't it easy to fake it?" Duke growled, almost out of control, like a trapped beast cornered on the edge of a cliff, desperate for the last bit of life! As he spoke, he walked towards Mason, " Don't think I don't know, you just don't want to give me the inheritance I deserve!"
Seeing his heartless demeanor, Mason looked cold and stern, about to say something.
Suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and he saw a sharp and slender scalpel in Duke's hand. When he stretched his arm, the tip of the knife landed on Mason's neck.
"Duke! Put it down!" Mason was startled, his tone more severe than ever.
This turn of events happened so suddenly, that Victoria's breath suddenly stopped for a moment, and her eyes turned cold, "Dr. Duke..."
Jack's eyes sank, and he immediately gestured to the bodyguard next to him.
The surrounding bodyguards were all on high alert.
Sadly, Duke took advantage of the moment of inattention!
Even receiving the punishment was not enough to make up for this mistake!
Beside them, Michael, Ralph, and Alicia all became tense, and their hearts were in their throats.
This man actually wanted to fight to the death...
Only Willow wandered there like a lonely soul, looking at the scene in front of her, her smile becoming more and more eerie.
What a dog-eat-dog scene!
Those who deceive and use her should not expect a good ending!
It would be best if both sides would suffer!
"No one is allowed to make any moves!" Duke was a doctor, and he was very familiar with the scalpel. The sharp blade was crossed in front of Mason's neck, and he threatened in a stern voice, "If anyone dares to make a move, I will immediately cut him off!"
The worry in Alicia's eyes was almost overflowing. She clenched her palms tightly, her nails piercing the flesh of her palms. "Duke, don't you just want the family fortune? Put down the knife!"
Duke shouted, "Get me a car right away! Right away!"
He wasn't stupid. Once he put down the knife, these bodyguards would immediately rush over!
All he wanted now was to leave here safely!
All he wanted was to run away!
At that moment, a voice came from not far away that was dull and threatening, "What car do you want?"
Victoria's ears twitched. This voice was so familiar...
Victoria looked over and happened to see Hunter walking towards them.
The man was wearing a black shirt as always, followed by Alex alone. He walked towards them with a gloomy expression, his signature eyes lingering on Victoria for a second, then his gaze landed on Duke's hand holding the scalpel.
Victoria frowned slightly and suddenly remembered what Hunter said to her last night. See you tomorrow...
Jack's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was almost no emotion on his handsome face.
Hunter had been in a bad mood since he boarded the cruise ship. The river was too deep, which reminded him of the experience of being grabbed by the head and pushed into the swimming pool when he was a child and on the verge of suffocation. Now he saw Duke threatening Mason with a scalpel. His mood grew worse.
The rest of the Preston family knew Hunter, but they didn't have time to greet him now.
"Did you hear me? Get the car ready!" Duke shouted again, "Don't even think about playing tricks!"
Victoria's eyes flickered slightly. Now, only she and Alicia were relatively close to Mason...
