Chapter 373 Sophistry
However, at the moment when they were arguing, a figure flashed by the side of Eric and Jade.
"Ouch..." Then a whine was heard, and Simon was knocked down to the ground again.
Eric's eyes were drawn to the man. His father was beating and kicking Simon. Blue veins stood out on his forehead, and his eyes were as red as a tomato.
"Don't… Stop it, ow..." Simon covered his head with his hands and whined. He didn't know what they had done wrong today. The two men punched and kicked him. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
"Ah, what are you doing?" Realizing what had happened, Jade turned around and tried to push him away, shouting, "How dare you? Are you crazy today? The son beat someone, the father will beat him as well. Is there any law?"
"Get out of my way!" However, Richard was not as patient as Eric. He pushed Jade away and kicked at Simon again. "Bastard! Bastard! You even killed your own father, you bastard!"
"Ah!" Jade was pushed to the ground, and his elbows and knees hit the ground with a very loud noise.
"Ah, stop it… Oh, no, stop it..." Simon was kicked to the ground, but he had no intention of stopping.
Angela, who also saw the result, walked up to him with red eyes, grabbed his hand and said in a hoarse voice, "Stop it, Richard. It's not good to kill someone."
"How I wish I could kick him to death! How could there be such a bastard in Gu family!" Richard stared at Simon angrily and panted.
"This kind of person should not be punished by us. He will dirty our hands. The law will not tolerate him." Angela persuaded, holding his hand tightly for fear that he would rush up again.
Eric looked at his father and said, "Dad, mom is right. It's just a few kicks to relieve your anger."
After saying that, he walked to the ground where Simon had stopped rolling on the ground. He sneered and stretched out his hand to talk about his left foot. He pulled up his left foot and looked around, but there was no injury.
He let go of him and lifted up the trouser leg of his right foot. There were three or four scratches on the outer side of his leg and the top part of his ankle, but they were not very serious.
"I want to know how you got hurt." Looking at Simon's face, Eric said coldly.
Simon subconsciously tightened his legs, "No… I got scratched by accident."
"Scratch by accident?" With a sneer, he stood up slowly and looked down at Simon who was lying on the ground. "You are so cruel to yourself."
Then he changed the subject and became extremely cruel, "Simon, are you still unwilling to admit it till now?"
"Em… Admit what? Eric, don't be so shameless." Simon winced in pain and staggered to his feet.
"I'm a rogue?" Eric asked with a smile, "Simon, if I don't have enough evidence, do you think I will say that? Do you dare to say that your scratch was not scratched by grandpa?"
Simon staggered to stand steadily, with one hand covering his abdomen and the other covering his slapped face. At this time, both sides of his face were swollen, and the corners of his mouth were still bleeding.
His eyes flickered, but his tone revealed his guilt. "You, you have any evidence to prove it."
Eric turned to look at Angela, because the three test results were in her hands. "Mom, give me what you have."
Hearing this, Angela reached out. Eric took it over and handed it to Simon, "Take your time. You can admit it after reading it."
"You..." With a surprised look at Simon, he took it over and looked down.
"You'd better look at the paternity test." Eric said coldly, "The suspect has a parent-child relationship with grandfather. Simon, who do you think this suspect is? Huh?"
Simon widened his eyes in disbelief, "This, this, this is not my name on it. You… Why are you so sure that I am the suspect?"
In everyone's eyes, his attitude of refusing to admit was nothing but a sneer.
"Yes, there is no your name on it. Why is the suspect you?" Eric smiled and said in a very strange tone, "This morning, when our family went out, Grandpa was fine, but not long after he went out, something happened to him. Yes, we also found the skin tissue of the suspect through the crack of Grandpa's fingernails. This paternity test is to test the skin tissue and grandpa's blood. Grandpa only has two sons, and my father has proof of his absence. Shouldn't his other son be you? Or is there an illegitimate child appearing?"
"You… You..." Simon stepped back two steps in a row, as if he could not believe it.
"Don't look at me in surprise." Eric smiled slightly, "I never believe that grandpa died of an accident, so this afternoon when you were all resting, I asked someone to help find the evidence. Unfortunately, I found the evidence."
"You... You..." Simon couldn't say a complete sentence, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
"If you don't admit it, it doesn't matter. I'll take you to the hospital to collect blood samples and compare your DNA with the suspect's DNA. I'll see if it's the same!" Eric almost clenched his teeth when he said the last sentence.
"No… No..." Simon was completely flustered. The fact was clear, and it was useless to argue.
Frank, who was holding his arms, looked at his father in shock, "Dad, grandpa is really you, you… Killed?"
"Shut up!" "Don't talk nonsense. How could your father do such a thing?" yelled Jade, who stood up from the ground.
To be honest, Jade was a little flustered at the moment. She was just bluffing and deceiving herself. She didn't believe what she had heard.
Although she hated Simon so much for hanging out with women, he was still her husband. She subconsciously did not believe that he would do such a shameless thing.
"I think you'd better face the truth." Seeing through her, Eric said coldly.
"Don't talk nonsense. He won't do such a thing!" Jade glared at Eric with red eyes, and then turned to look at Simon. "You have nothing to do with this. It's not you who did it. They are rascals."
"The evidence is in front of me. What else should I explain?" Simon looked at her with a depressed face, "Yes, father's illness was caused by me irritating him. I left him directly when I saw him fall to the ground, but I didn't save him. He is unfair. This is his retribution!"
"You!" Eric was speechless. He didn't expect that he would say something like that. He clenched his fists again, as if he was going to slap him the next second.
"Eric..." Lily quickly held his hand. When he turned to look at her, she shook her head at him and said, "Don't do it."
Gritting his teeth, Eric calmed down and looked back at Simon, "Grandpa has never been partial. It's because you are too ambitious and want to monopolize the family property alone. You used to have more power in the Gu company than anyone else. What did my father do about you? What did we say to Grandpa? We never fought with you. It was all your fault. All kinds of things happened later. Until your ugly video came out and Gu company suffered losses, grandpa had to let you stay at home and not went to the company."
Simon widened his eyes and retorted, "Isn't he depriving me of my right in the Gu Company by doing so? He even asked me to hand over all the projects to your father. I have worked hard to prepare the project. Do I just stand by and watch it fall into the hands of outsiders?"
"An outsider? Ha ha..." Eric sneered, "So we are outsiders in your eyes. Well, since you say so, let's settle accounts."
Then he looked at Simon coldly, "Simon, don't you dare to say that you have snatched several projects from my father?"
"By the way, ouch..." Simon's mouth twisted in pain. He let out a cry and continued, "When did I steal his project?"
"How dare you say that you didn't arrange your men around my father? Every time he finishes a project, before we can report it to grandpa, you will report the same project to grandpa, which will make my father fail."
"So what? This is called taking the initiative. He has been slow all the time and doesn't know how to seize the opportunity."
"What a good opportunity!" Eric sneered, "If you want to seize the opportunity first, do you have the ability to grab the outsider?"
"I will take you away from him." Simon said confidently, "I have been working hard to run the Gu company. He always knows to hide in the company and idle away. But later, my father still favors him. Why?"
Eric pressed his thin lips tightly. He didn't want to talk to him anymore. It was unnecessary and meaningless. After all, it was his ambition that caused it. In his eyes, except for interests, there was nothing else. Now he had reached the point of refusing to recognize each other. Even his own father.
"In fact, the old man doesn't have to die today. He killed himself." No one asked, but Simon said, "I just want to ask him if he has invited lawyer to modify his will for two times, and if he has reduced the one that originally belongs to me. But do you know what he said?"
As if he had fallen into madness, he opened his eyes wide and looked at Eric with a weird smile on his face.
