Young Lord of The Dragon Sect novel Chapter 1040

The middle-aged man was possessed by anger and disappointment as he heard the dirty affairs of his son.

Looking at his father, Finlay was still unclear about what was going on, and the only thing that he knew currently was that his father was talking to something on the phone in an exceptionally serious tone.

The middle-aged man offered a few affirmative promises on this thing, and then hung off the phone.

Finlay smiled sardonically, "So, is there anything the one on the phone can do for that fool?"

"Do you know who that is?" Asked the middle-aged man in a cold tone.

Regardless of the serious and angry expression on his father's face, Finlay curled his lips and continued, "Well, I guess that one is just another nobody. Who else could this little poor guy call for help?"

Hearing that, in disappointment, the middle-aged man slapped his son hard.

Finlay was almost knocked down by the strike of his father.

In astonishment, he looked at his father in bewilderment, "Why you do that to me, dad? I have done nothing wrong!"

The middle-aged man hummed, "The one who called in was Chief Carr. He already knew the whole thing. What's more, he has also told me something really astonishing — have you been willfully neglecting your duty, receiving others' bribes, releasing criminals without permission and fabricating guilt of this young man?"

In silence, Finlay was stunned to hear that Chief Carr would spare no effort to dig out his little secret merely for an ordinary man.

Seeing the panic-stricken face of his son, in disappointment, the middle-aged man could tell that what Chief Carr told him was all true. He then said, "You have failed my trust for you, son. Shame on you!"

Finlay, daring not to retort to his father, was shattered to suppress his furious abhorrence for Maximilian, the man who had pushed him into such a dilemma.

"I know it's my fault, dad. But we are in the same boat now! How about we just simply send this guy to prison, and then tell Chief Carr that we have freed him? Since he is in H city, while we're in W city." Finlay wrung his hands and smiled awkwardly.

Finlay's incorrigibility had successfully irritated his father. The middle-aged man offered a grim laugh and said, "Shut up, you incorrigible and unregenerate idiot!"

Embarrassed, Finlay had no choice but to offer a murmur and shut up.

Grimly, the middle-aged man continued in a serious tone, "Just release that young man quickly, or both of us will definitely be doomed!"

"Come on, dad! You're being too serious about that!" Said Finlay.

In rage, the middle-aged man once again raised his palm high above his head, and was about to give his son another slap. Finlay was frightened and hastened to release Maximilian.
