Chapter 753 Henry walked to the front yard to welcome the guest.
The car came to a halt in front of Henry. When the car door opened, Elliot’s bodyguard was the first to emerge.
The bodyguard got out of the car and threw a cold glance over at Henry.
Henry felt shivers run down his spine from the bodyguard’s gaze.
What was going on? He was Elliot’s biological brother. How dare a bodyguard look at him in such a provocative way?!
Many times, the way subordinates treated someone represented the way their superiors felt toward that person.
Henry was perplexed. Shea’s death had nothing to do with him!
Just as he was feeling uneasy, Elliot emerged from the car.
He glanced coldly at Henry, then strode into the mansion.
Henry was puzzled, but followed after him.
“I heard about Shea last night, Elliot. I wanted to contact you right away, but I didn’t want to bother you that late at night. If you didn’t come by, I was planning on going to discuss this matter with you.”
Elliot’s voice was chilling to the bone as he asked, “Discuss what?”
“Shea’s funeral.”
“Who said she was dead?” Elliot tightly clenched his fists as a savage fury burned in his eyes.
Henry realized that he had misspoken, then quickly said in chagrin, “Ah, my bad! I misspoke! Shea is my sister, too. How could I possibly curse her like that… I hope she can live a good life…
Elliot ignored him and walked into the living room.
Henry was baffled. If Elliot was not here to talk about Shea, then what was he doing here?
By the time he entered the living room, Elliot was already at the bottom of the stairs.
He stood right there and did not walk up.
This was the spot where his mother was when she died.
Henry quickly realized this, then said out of guilt, “Do you miss Mother, Elliot?”
“Yes.” Elliot’s voice was nasally, and his breathing turned heavier. “Why did you kill her, Henry?”
Henry felt like an electric current shot through him.
“I-It wasn’t me… I didn’t… How could I kill Mother?! She…” he stammered.
“Then, it must have been your son.” Elliot gazed at his brother with disappointment in his eyes. “You hid the truth about our mother’s death for your son, which makes you an accomplice!”
“Elliot! Why are you bringing this up suddenly? Who told you such nonsense? Bring them out so we can talk face to face.” Henry did not want this matter to be exposed. Once he admitted it, there was no turning back.
Money was one thing, but whether or not he would be allowed to continue to live was another problem.
“This is how you repay her after she left most of the inheritance to you.” Elliot did not answer his question, but continued ruthlessly, “Don’t you get nightmares at night?”
Henry’s eyes filled with tears.
He was not as capable as Elliot was, so their mother had set her will so that he would get seventy percent of her estate, while the rest would go to Elliot.
He fell to his knees DIMDP>a sobbed.
“I’m sorry! I let Mother down!” Henry cried in agony. “Elliot, Cole is my only child…”
Elliot raised his hand and cut him off. “I’m sick of hearing that. Since you can’t educate your son, then I’ll just end him right now!”
Henry was speechless.
Elliot took a silver handgun from his bodyguard, then said, “Seeing as he’s my nephew, I won’t let him suffer. I’ll send him straight to hell with one shot!”
From the second floor, Cole stared at the handgun in Elliot’s hand with widened eyes.
His face was void of color, and he was trembling from head to toe..
If he were not holding onto the banister, he definitely would have fallen to the ground.
“Uncle Elliot! I don’t want to die… I don’t want to die!” he screamed uncontrollably.
When Elliot heard his voice, he immediately pulled the gun’s sleeve and loaded it. After that, he aimed the gun’s barrel straight at Cole!
