Butler Fred furrowed his brows in confusion, clearly unsure of what Mickey was about to do, either.
"You..."
"I never knew that you were the one who killed my mother."
Mickey lifted his head to fixate his vengeful gaze on his father's face.
"You've always told me that my grandpa, grandma, and mother all died in a fire.
"You claim that they had died because of their lack of awareness of fire safety and even told me that
the only reason we survived was that they had deliberately chased us out of their barbecue party.
"Every time the thought of my mother or other relatives popped into my head, I'd be filled with hatred
and resentment.I had gone so many years thinking that they deserved to die because of their stupidity
and arrogance...until now."
His cold, steely gaze was filled with hatred.
"It was only after Joshua exposed the truth about your past that I finally found out...not only were you
the one who killed my mother and grandparents, but you even twisted the truth and made me think they
were the villains for so many years!"
Mickey closed his eyes and let out a bitter chuckle.
"It's not that my mother didn't love me at all, but she never got the chance to!"
Butler Fred's expression grew darker and darker at every word, his face as pale as the wall behind
him.He opened his mouth as though he wanted to say something, but no words came out.
"Mickey...I..."
He wanted to explain that he had been telling the truth, that Mickey's mother was indeed the twisted
woman he claimed, and that their entire family had treated him like a slave.
However, when faced with Mickey's seething gaze, he could not seem to utter a single word.He knew
that no matter what he said, Mickey would never believe him again.
None of his words mattered; nothing he could ever say would be able to overpower a woman who had
died more than 30 years ago.He was the one who had done this to himself.
"Master Landry."
A glimmer of triumph flashed through Mickey's eyes at the sight of Butler Fred's ashen face.He turned
to stare at Charles with a look of admiration EFr.[vJI said, "I can explain to you why Young Master
Landry decided to keep these companies running.That's because..."
Mickey glanced impassively at Butler Fred and explained coldly, without a single hint of warmth in his
tone, "That's because my father had tried to scare Young Master Landry when he first started working
at Landry Group.
"He compiled all the documents that had almost been destroyed by the Lynch family and showed them
to Young Master Landry, claiming that if he didn't prepare himself for the inevitable battle, Lynch Group
would grow more and more powerful with Joshua's reign and one day, Landry Group would be attacked
and forced into bankruptcy.
"At that time, Young Master Landry had just started working for the company, so naturally, he was
concerned about the company's future.
When he heard this, he immediately decided to find a solution to preserve Landry Group's future.
"With the help of other people, my father then managed to convince Young Master Landry into secretly
transferring Landry Group's assets to his personal account to prevent any unnecessary financial
losses.After all, if not even Landry Group could trace this money, our opponents could never."
Finally, Mickey turned to meet Charles’ gaze and added, "Because of this, Young Master Landry
transferred all this money out of the company account in batches.Initially, my father had intended to use
this evidence to threaten Young Master Landry into obeying his commands, but to his surprise, Young
Master Landry had used this money to establish new companies instead of saving them up as he'd
thought.
"Not only that, but as he matured, Young Master Landry eventually saw through my father's scheme
and fell out over this."
Charles furrowed his brows upon hearing this, then turned to stare at Jim.
"Since this was the case, why did you hide the truth for so long?"
