Chapter 745 Unsightly Scene
Irked by the others’ criticism, Samuel unbuttoned his cufflinks, exposing his forearms.
Scanning everyone with a hint of coldness in his eyes, he scoffed, “Since when has the Bowers family started playing such underhanded tactics? There isn’t any concrete evidence to convict Natalie of poisoning my grandpa, and you’re already blowing things out of proportion. It only makes me wonder. Is it because you can’t wait to seek justice for my grandpa or because you want to pull me down for your own sake?”
In a split second, everyone’s face fell.
Reuben’s face turned grim instantaneously.
Seconds later, Samuel added casually, “Reuben Bowers, as the second elder’s eldest son, you’re seemingly a lot older than me. Thus, you should have a clearer insight into everything than I do. Don’t you know that the age factor is not the key to becoming the patriarch of a family?”
Blowing his gasket, Reuben snarled, “What do you mean? How could you humiliate me?”
“Ah! It seems you can hardly wait to be the patriarch of the Bowers family,” Samuel sneered.
Reuben blushed crimson and growled in exasperation, “How could you slander me? I’ve never said so!”
“Reuben Bowers, how could you have the gut to stir up turmoil by telling cock-and-bull stories! From today onwards, you’re officially expelled from the Bowers family and should be having no truck with all of us here in the future. In other words, you’ll lose everything!” Samuel snickered as a glint of disdain flickered in his eyes.
His last few words sent Reuben into an instant tizzy, and the latter’s face turned ashen.
Reuben gritted his teeth and bellowed, “Samuel Bowers, who do you think you are? What right do you have to do that? What do you mean by stirring up turmoil by telling cock-and-bull stories? You’re currently being manipulated by a woman and placing the whole family in deep waters! What misdoing did I commit? I was only exposing your shameful deed!”
Throwing Reuben a glance, Samuel replied placidly, “I’m the patriarch of the Bowers family. Who’re you then?”
