Chapter: 567
The bodyguards coughed and left with their heads bowed.
Caden didn't go into the room.
He would handle the unfinished business Alicia had mentioned first.
Joshua had been subjected to torture here for over two hours before being sent to the hospital.
He was in a pitiful condition.
Alicia was preoccupied with work and couldn't stay longer with Caden.
She left.
After concluding his business, Caden sat in the car on the way back and started watching a video.
It was video footage of Joshua getting injuries.
He tapped on the screen and forwarded it to Jerald.
After switching off the device, he casually lit a cigarette.
His eyes showed a maturity and indifference beyond his age.
The bodyguards observed him with respect.
Despite a severe falling out with Joshua, his brother, he maintained his composure.
He was indeed a man destined for significant achievements.
Caden suddenly said, “Get some grapefruit-flavored candy for the lounge."
The bodyguards responded eagerly, “Yes, Mr. Ward."
Caden paused, reconsidering.
"Forget it."
The bodyguard quickly offered, “It's no trouble. We can have someone go out and get it."
"No need." He realized he shouldn't be spoiling her.
If he made grapefruit-flavored candy available, she might eventually expect him to make her meat dishes.
He casually flicked the ash off his cigarette.
Disliking the smell, he decided to quit smoking it.
After viewing the video, Jerald was so upset that his condition became worse.
Shelia had a tantrum, cried, and then demanded an explanation from Jerald.
Jerald lay in bed, his heart heavy with concern for Joshua, yet he was forced to consider the situation carefully. He struggled to breathe.
"What does Caden want exactly?" He gasped, frustration evident. "What the hell does he want?!"
"What else? He wants Joshua dead! How could he do this to his own brother?" Shelia cried until she was nearly worn out.
Jerald remained quiet, reflecting.
