The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Chapter 392 There’s Nothing Left for a Man When He Grows Old

Joey shook her head with resignation. Sharon was even more paranoid than she had imagined, and

actually hated her now too, but she shouldn't hate Allen.

"Sharon, don't force me to go against you!" All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Looking at Sharon's figure disappearing into the night, Joey's expression gradually became cold. She

would not forgive the person who hurt Allen.

The next day.

Because William had to go far away to City S for treatment, the Charles family was rare to gather in the

hall this morning, and they were ready to send him off.

As Joey had considered, this send-off was already bad even before it started.

Sharon pushed William out of the room. His expression was unprecedented grief and anger. He picked

up the tea cup on the table and smashed it towards George.

George dodged it with a deflection of his body. Paige, Allen, Joey, Lawrence, and Martha, who were

sitting next to him, were all greatly alarmed. They looked at William bursting with rage.

"What are you doing?"

George looked at William incredulously. He was angry that William hadn’t shown any respect for his

wife and children. But he did not dare to question, and just frowned.

"You kneel down!"

William's hand was trembling. Despite his slurred speech, everyone got what he meant by his tone of

voice.

George's expression changed greatly. Not only did William smash him with a cup, but he also wanted

him to kneel in front of his children. Although he was kneeling down to his father, this was unbearable

for George.

"What's the deal, dad? Can you make it clear? The children are all here!"

This meant that he would not kneel.

As his path to officialdom got further, the power in his hands was getting greater. These years he took

good care of William, but it was undeniable that William's position had changed a lot. The filial piety

George showed was to wrestle for a good reputation. He had long regarded William as a burden. Two

years ago, he did not care about William's feelings and ruthlessly separated him from Sharon.

Therefore, William was angry and had a stroke.

George's impatience made William gasp for breath. His trembling finger pointed at George, but he

could not utter a word.

He was most aware of his son's character. He also understood that George's respect for him was

hypocritical.

He was no longer the fearsome general. He was wounded in battle when he was young, and before he

was old enough to retire, he gradually lost the feeling in his legs and had to rely on a wheelchair. He

had to surrender his military power and retire. He was just an old man who was forgotten by his country

and loathed by his son. He could not even give the woman he loved a legal status.

But this was his only son. He watched George make a success step by step, becoming continuation of

his brilliant life. He was proud of the son, even though the son did not value him anymore.

George had crossed the line. A majestical lion like William, that had been quiescent for years, young or

old, could not be easily erased.

"You didn't think of me as a father anymore. Everyone grows old, you will also get old and have nothing

like me. What you did to me today will get back to you some day."

William shook his head sorrowfully. His speech became fluent as never before, and anyone could

sense how desperate he was at this moment.

George was getting angry. He turned to Paige, Allen, Joey, Lawrence and Martha who were sitting on

the sofa and said, "You guys go back to your rooms first. I will talk to grandpa alone. And all the

servants get out too."

"All the servants but the Charles family may leave."

Before George finished his words, William had already given a majestic order and added, "Sharon

stays here. There is something I must investigate today, and those who do not cooperate will get out of

the Charles family."
