True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 577

Maxim suddenly froze, looking at Charles who was standing about three meters away from him. His eagle-like sharp eyes were full of hostility.

Charles was shocked by the piercing gaze and immediately explained. "Dad, we all heard you crying in the room. Not only me, but even the servants heard you."

"Charles!"

Maxim lost his temper in an instant and bellowed loudly.

"Dad, don't be angry." Charles looked at Maxim and felt that he had to point it out. Otherwise, Maxim would be deceiving himself. Hence, he continued, "You are crying because you regret driving Aunt Marilyn out of the family."

Maxim was stunned and was frozen on the spot.

His lips trembled, but he didn't say a word for a long time.

Seeing that he was right about Maxim, Charles became more confident. "Dad, you regret it. What's wrong with admitting it? No one will laugh at you if you admit that you're wrong. It's better than hiding in this room alone and crying, isn't it?"

"Shut up!"

"Look at you!" Charles chuckled and added, "You simply refuse to admit it. Do you think it's so hard to admit your regret?"

Maxim was a stubborn old man. He narrowed his eyes and glared coldly at Charles. His eyes were indifferent and sharp.

"Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking."

"Dad, I only want Zachary's investment." Charles didn't hide his intention and replied, "I'm not doing this for myself but for the whole Lowe family. Eva, Donald, the descendants of the Lowe family, as well as your grandson and granddaughter, they still have to survive!"

"If you want to make money, just use your own effort!" Maxim berated in a booming voice, "You can't do it on your own and yet you want to take advantage of a junior. You've gone too far."

"Dad, I won't agree with you. If I was selfish, I wouldn't have given up. You haven't taken care of the family in so many years, nor have you been in the business world. That's why you don't know how difficult it is to make money."

Charles spoke as though he had been wronged.

Maxim sneered, "What were you doing even if I knew about it? You've been squandering everything!"

"Dad, don't mention the past again." Charles said evasively, "It's meaningless to mention the past."

"Get the hell out of here!"

"Dad, I haven't finished." Charles continued, "You've done something wrong. You shouldn't have robbed the ashes. I advise you to quickly send the ashes back for the harmony of the whole Lowe family."

Maxim was so angered that his chest heavily heaved up and down. He then replied, "I won't let you send the ashes back just because you want to take advantage of Zachary."

"I didn't mean you have to let me." Charles explained, "You should return it to Zachary, Dad, you're not willing to part with Aunt Marilyn. We understand that. However, burying Aunt Marilyn in the ancestral cemetery with Mom is a good thing. With one on your left and the other on your right, your two wives will be serving you. You'll also have a companion when you go to heaven!"

"Get out!" Maxim roared angrily, "I'm not dead yet. If you want me to go to heaven, I won't go back either!"

"Look, you're losing your temper again." Charles was not infuriated with Maxim's behavior, and his eyes were full of helplessness. "I have called Eva and Donald, and they will be here soon. Let's talk later and make a decision with a raise of our hands. You can see if everyone listens to you or listens to me."

"Son of a b*tch!" Maxim cursed and ordered, "Someone, get in here!"

Despite his shout, none of the servants came.

He widened his eyes and looked at Charles in shock. He frowned and asked, "Where are they? Where are the servants?"

"I let them go downstairs." Charles explained, "You were crying, and I saw them muttering at the door. Do you think they don't know? In fact, everyone has found out!"

Maxim was really shocked. He stared at Charles but couldn't say anything.

"Dad, I advise you to cooperate with us. Otherwise, Aunt Marilyn won't be able to rest in peace. You have already done Aunt Marilyn wrong. If you don't let her rest in peace now, you are truly crossing the line. Everyone will hate you! Then, your life will be meaningless."
