Chapter 1026 - 1025: Fish on the Chopping Block

Before long, Julian Ford came out, leaving the old man and Finn Chandler alone in the room.

"Julian Ford."

Serena Sullivan called, summoning Julian Ford over.

"Wait five minutes before going in."

"Hm?"

Julian Ford didn’t understand what Serena meant.

"I don’t really like Old Master Chambers."

To indulge a son who has affairs everywhere and keeps so many mistresses, such a father wouldn’t be good for anything.

Looking at the members of The Chambers Family, apart from Finn Chandler, Serena hasn’t met many good ones.

As the saying goes, "When the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked," how good could Old Master Chambers possibly be?

"Neither of you attended your wedding; and now he’s come."

"Moreover, on the wedding day, Mrs. Chambers jumped off the hotel top floor."

Serena said indifferently.

"Hm."

Julian Ford agreed with Serena, he smiled, "No need to worry, I’m aware of Old Master Chambers’ arrival, and I installed a mini surveillance in the ward."

Speaking, Julian Ford shook his phone.

Seeing Julian Ford so well-prepared, Serena felt relieved.

"Then stay here with Finn Chandler, I’m leaving first."

"Alright!"

Julian Ford escorted Serena, then found a spot in the corridor, lowered his head, and checked the surveillance to observe the situation inside the ward.

Those accompanying Old Master Chambers hadn’t entered this area; after he entered, he sat down beside Finn Chandler’s bed.

The ward

When Finn Chandler saw Old Master Chambers, they didn’t know how to feel.

Regarding Mrs. Chambers, Finn Chandler longed for familial affection but also resented her coercion, especially when she used suicide as a tool to pressure them—it broke their heart.

Finn Chandler both revered and feared Old Master Chambers.

As someone who pushed them into power, Finn Chandler always felt that being oneself was a betrayal to him!

Now, Old Master Chambers sat in front of them, silent, his eyes staring.

His gaze was too sharp, and his silence was even more unsettling.

Finn Chandler suppressed the chaotic feeling, pursed their lips, and called, "Grandfather."

Old Master Chambers still did not respond, making Finn Chandler increase their volume.

"Grandfather!"

"I need to take a good look at what I’ve been cultivating for a decade—Young Master Chambers!"

"And I didn’t even realize it was a girl."

As he spoke, Old Master Chambers laughed, "ha ha."

The Chambers Family’s bias against women started with Old Master Chambers.

For granddaughters, he paved their paths purely for marriage alliances for The Chambers Family.

When Finn Chandler was Young Master Chambers, Old Master Chambers arranged those illegitimate daughters, one by one obediently marrying as per his wishes, helping The Chambers Family gain a foothold in the Imperial Capital.

And they all sacrificed for The Chambers Family and Finn Chandler.

Even if the match was unfavorable, even if like Pearl Chambers’ chosen man who never regarded them as wives.

All of this had nothing to do with Old Master Chambers.

"Cold-blooded and unfeeling," these four words embody Old Master Chambers completely.

Knowing his most cherished and valued Young Master is a granddaughter he deeply despises, it’s likely Old Master Chambers is extremely furious inside.

"Grandfather, I’m sorry."

Finn Chandler replied.

Upon revealing their identity and returning to oneself, Finn Chandler didn’t feel it was wrong.

If there was a mistake, it’s that for these many years, they followed Mrs. Chambers’ words and forgot to rebel, they should have done it earlier.

However, had they exposed their identity so early, Old Master Chambers probably wouldn’t let them off.

Without any support or power, they’d be like a fish on a chopping board.
