Chapter 1038: End Of Family Line

At Yuan’s place, his wives were all staring at the phone screen, watching people’s reactions to Eric and the thugs’ pictures and videos on social media.

"People are bombarding the comment sections of every post. And look at those savage comments... pfft!" Lily burst into laughter after reading the comments.

"Absolutely!" Julie nodded while laughing. "Now the whole world knows that he was castrated!"

"I can just imagine the look on his face when he realizes that he went viral on the internet and everyone knows about him losing his manhood," Aisha added with a soft chuckle, trying her best to hold back her laughter.

"That would be the most interesting thing to watch," Lilith said, hugging Yuan from behind.

"I never thought you’d be such a possessive husband, Yuan. And I like this side of you—so protective of us." She added, bringing her face closer for a gentle kiss.

Yuan smiled at her and accepted the kiss with open arms. From the corner of his eye, he could see Lily staring at him with a dangerous look in her eyes as he shared a sweet kiss with Lilith.

After the kiss, Yuan smiled at Lily and pulled her into his embrace, surprising her when she suddenly found herself sitting on his lap.

"What are you doing? Why did you suddenly pull me like this?" Lily looked at him with a cold gaze, hiding the excitement bubbling inside her.

Yuan then spent the next couple of minutes pampering her, showering her with love and plenty of kisses.

Lily was over the moon as her hubby pampered her and showered her with love. She then looked at Anna Grace with a smug grin on her face.

’See how much my dear husband loves me?’ Lily thought, looking at her mother, trying to provoke her.

Anna Grace’s lips twitched slightly at her daughter’s smugness, but she sighed softly and decided to let Lily think she had won this round.

’You’re too young to challenge me, my dear daughter.’ Anna Grace smiled inwardly.

At the hospital, Edward looked restless as the doctors examined his son’s condition. He had invited all the top doctors in the city to examine his son.

’My son is the sole heir to our family! If anything happens to him, I swear I’ll bury the one responsible ten feet under the ground, along with his entire family!’

As he sat on the cold hospital chair, his leg constantly shook unconsciously. His eyes were cold as he waited for the doctors to come out and give him their report.

A couple of moments later, the doctors walked out of the ward and looked at him apologetically.

"Mr. Miller, you have to be strong and take good care of your son. He is very fragile right now, and he won’t recover from this trauma anytime soon. It might take a long time for his wounds to heal," one of the doctors said, placing a hand on Edward’s shoulder.

Edward looked at the doctors with a puzzled expression.

"What do you mean by that, Doctor?" he asked, preparing himself for the worst.

"Well, Mr. Miller, we won’t beat around the bush with you," another doctor said, a firm look on his face.

"Your son has several broken bones in his body, and to our surprise, they were not broken by a heavy object or a weapon."

"What?!" Edward was shocked, his eyes widening in disbelief.

The doctor continued, "They were caused by punches. The impact left imprints on your son’s body. I can’t imagine how strong the person who beat your son was. Whoever did this possesses strength beyond human comprehension."

"Also, your son’s manhood was burned to ashes without harming the other parts of his body. From the burned tissue we examined, we made a shocking discovery."

"The flames used to burn your son’s manhood were as hot as the surface of the sun. That is impossible to achieve in a controlled manner."

Edward collapsed onto the floor as his legs gave out after hearing this, feeling as though his entire world had turned upside down.

"Mr. Miller, please control yourself!"

The doctors immediately helped him up and made him sit on the chair.

"Mr. Miller, we know that this news is very disheartening for you. But you have to control your emotions," one of them said, trying to console him.

"Just leave me alone for a moment... I want some peace and quiet to clear my mind," Edward said a moment later.

"Of course, Mr. Miller. Take as much time as you need. Just call us if you need anything," one of the doctors said before they left him alone outside the ward.

Once the doctors left, Edward pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number.

The phone rang for a couple of seconds before someone picked up.

"David, I need your favor with something," Edward said firmly, his expression cold.

[Do you want me to investigate who is behind the incident with your son?] A voice came through the speaker.

"You already know about this? How?" Edward was shocked.

[How do I know about your son? By now, everyone in the city knows that your son was castrated by someone. Your son has gone viral on the internet.]

[Congratulations! Your son is a celebrity now.]

The man on the other side of the call let out a dark, humorous laugh, making Edward tremble with fury.

"David, mind your words. I’m losing my patience here!" Edward said, his voice sounding even colder than before.

[My apologies, Mr. Miller. I went a little overboard. Now, would you mind telling me what I can do for you?]

"I want to find the one responsible for my son’s condition. Not only did they beat him up, but they also castrated him and ended my family line!" Edward replied, clenching his fists tightly.

"I will pay ten million once you complete this job for me! I want them to pay for what they did to my son!"

[In that case, I’ll need to take this job seriously.] The man replied. [Just keep the payment ready. I’ll contact you once I find out who is behind it.]

"Good. Make it quick." Edward nodded and ended the call.

"Lizzy, do I have any appointments today?" Patricia asked her secretary while looking at the time.

"No, President. You have none," Lizzy replied after checking her notepad.

"Good. I’ll return home early today. You should also take your leave early and meet me at the Kingsley Hotel this afternoon."

"Oh... The Business Gala hosted by the corporate tycoons, investors, and industrialists. I almost forgot about it," Lizzy muttered, realizing that she had almost forgotten about such an important event.

Patricia nodded and said, "It’s today, and you’re coming with me. After all, we might get a huge opportunity to surpass the Lunar Corporation this time."

"However, I don’t think it will be that easy. That bastard is too shameless, and he would definitely try to sabotage your plans," Lizzy said, letting out a soft snort.

A moment later, Lizzy said, "Why don’t you ask that handsome guy next door for help?"

"Oh, Yuan? I don’t know... I never thought about it."

"Yes! Him... I mean Yuan." Lizzy nodded and continued, "He sold you so much gold and even gave you a huge discount. He can definitely help you secure a good investor to expand our company."

Patricia thought about Yuan for a moment before saying, "I’ll ask him to tag along with me to the gala. But I can’t force him to go with me."

After returning home, Patricia took a quick shower and put on a comfortable white dress that looked beautiful on her despite its simplicity.

"Right... I still haven’t gotten his contact number yet. I’m such a dummy!" She sighed softly as she suddenly remembered.

Thankfully, his villa was next to hers, making it very easy for her to meet him.

She arrived at Yuan’s door and rang the doorbell. Almost immediately, Mireya opened the door for her.

"Oh, it’s you, Patricia. Come inside." Mireya greeted her with a smile and invited her in.

"Sorry for coming so suddenly," Patricia said with a smile before entering the house.

"Where is Yuan? Is he not in the house?" she asked.

"He is in his room," Mireya replied. "Have a seat. I’ll go and tell him that you came to see him."

"Thanks."

Patricia settled onto the sofa and waited for Yuan to come out of his room.

"Patricia, when did you arrive?"

Just then, a familiar voice came from the side. Turning around, she saw Angela walking toward her with a gentle and elegant smile.

"I’ve just arrived, Lady Angela," she replied with a smile.

"Just call me Angela. I don’t like formalities," Angela said with a smile before beginning to chat with her, starting with some small talk.

A couple of moments later, Yuan arrived in the living room. Even in shorts and a normal T-shirt, he looked incredibly handsome.

"Are you looking for me, Patricia?" he asked, sitting next to Angela.

"Yes." She nodded with a smile before saying, "I’m here to invite you to the gala at the Kingsley Hotel. I don’t mind if you bring someone else with you."

"The invitation I have with me allows four people to enter the venue."
