"Who are you calling your godfather? Tell me the truth right now, Shaun!" Archie yelled, angrier than ever.
He thought this was ridiculous. He couldn't believe that Shaun would call an enemy his godfather!
However, Shuan said proudly, "Dad, my godfather is none other than Gregory Lynch. So, everything you're worried about isn't going to happen. You'll be doing the right thing by handing the Baxter family to me. Since he's my godfather, he's not going to do anything to me.
"I've already discussed it with him. As long as we can get rid of Nolan, then everything will be fixed. Of course, you won't be able to be the head of the Baxters anymore. However, you can rest assured with me around. All you need to do is enjoy your retirement!"
When Archie heard that, he almost fainted from anger.
He pointed at Shaun with his trembling hand, thinking about how his own son had betrayed him. "How dare you call him your godfather, you rascal! You… You've disgraced me and the whole family! Get lost right now! From now on, I don't have a son like you! Go!"
Archie was so enraged that he felt numb on his chair. Even though his body was shaking in anger, he was still glaring at Shaun with bloodshot eyes.
Meanwhile, Shaun sighed and shook his head. "Dad, why can't you understand that I'm doing everything for you and the Baxters? Why are you chasing me out of the Baxters? You're hurting me like this!
"However, it's fine. I know you're just angry now and need some time to think about it. Have some rest, Dad. I'll take care of everything from now on."
