The greetings of "family head" could be heard from the family members.
Inside the meeting hall, it was so quiet that a needled dropping could be heard.
The atmosphere was solemn, and the air seemed to be freezing.
Jack frowned, standing behind Patrick, his heart was raging.
It seemed that they blatantly teamed up to take over the position.
And they didn't leave any room for retreat at all.
Thinking of his father's instructions just before entering the door, Jack gritted his teeth, holding back his anger.
Suddenly, Patrick laughed.
Inside the silent meeting hall, his laughter echoed.
Everyone was shocked and their expressions changed.
"Great, that's great! None of you are taking me serious as the head of this family, are you working together to push me off my position?"
Patrick smiled and said, "Yes, its true that Jack went against our family rules when he attacked Madame Hughes. Not only that, he injured the brothers Killian and George, in that point he also violated the family rules."
What was going on?
The family head started to agree with him so readily?
Everyone was startled.
Madame Hughes and Carter were even more puzzled.
Just as he said that.
Archer suddenly sneered and said, "You, the head of the family, you are still bright enough to know that your son has violated the family rules, do we have to say what to do next?"
"Archer, you always have something to say."
Patrick looked at Archer jokingly, "Or, you think I'm in this wheelchair now, so I can't do anything to you?"
"You..." Archer flushed, gritted his teeth and swallowed the anger.
Looking at Patrick fearfully, he lowered his head.
He had the chance to get to know Patrick's methods when he was fighting for the head of the family position, he knew what Patrick was capable of doing.
No!
Anyone who had the status of heir and participated in the battle to become the head of the family knew that Patrick was a cruel person.
He was a tiger inside that sniffed the rose.
It was the most appropriate to describe Patrick.
Immediately afterwards, Patrick scanned through the crowd slowly.
Suddenly he said, "If I don't agree, what are you going to do?"
He jokingly smiled and looked at the audience.
It seemed that he didn't take anyone present seriously.
Madame Hughes wrinkled her brows and slammed her hands on the armrest of the chair.
Everyone was shocked and angry.
He had committed crimes such as blatant violations of family rules, blatant protection, wasn't this not taking anybody serious?
Why could a bastard have such great privileges?
Just relying on the fact that he was Patrick's son?
But these complaints, everyone only dared to bear in their hearts, they dared not to speak up.
"Is it too much for you to do this?"
Carter said in a deep voice, "If the head of the family does this, it will have an effect on the following, how will the Hughes family be managed in the future? Just because Jack is your son, he can have such great privileges? Then in the future, the whole Hughes family will be yours, he will kill whoever he wants to kill?"
"Too much? That's fine, Carter, can you tell me a solution?"
Patrick leaned back in the wheelchair and looked at Carter with a smile, his eyes sharp as a sword.
Carter met his gaze, not yielding, his gaze was equally cold.
A horrible sense of depression swept the entire Meeting hall.
Everyone was silent, watching them in horror.
Everyone knew that this was a confrontation between the head of the family and Carter.
"Puff!"
Suddenly, Carter laughed, "Since the head of the family asked, then I will tell you, for the sake of the head of the family, take away Jack's nomination of heir. If you are not a Hughes family member, this matter will be over! "
Jack's pupils narrowed.
Pressing his hands on the wheelchair, he couldn't help but to clench tightly, the veins on the back of his hands popped out.
