Chapter 2311

After all, Edwin had always been unruly by nature.How could he possibly be the type to lower his head on his own initiative?Someone like Edwin would never willingly back down. Neither Lucas nor Philip had ever seen him behave this way before.“Is what you said true?”When Philip asked this, he was clearly half doubtful.After all, Edwin’s temperament had always been unpredictable.Every time he thought about it, Philip felt a splitting headache.Sometimes he did not even feel like he had given birth to a child, but rather to a demon who had come to collect a debt.Yet this was not something Philip knew who to talk to about.After all, Edwin was his biological child—they had even done a DNA test—there was no doubt about that.With so many things happening now, it was only normal for the child to have some emotions.“Of course it’s true. You’re my biological father. Why would I lie to you about something like this?”Edwin took a deep breath and spoke seriously about his intentions and

Chapter 2312

“I’m his elder, yet he showed me no respect at all. No matter what, he owes me an explanation for this.”Edwin had already made up his mind.He wanted to take this chance to properly teach Lucas a lesson.After all, opportunities like Philip being hospitalized did not come often.Since both he and Lucas were rarely at the hospital at the same time, why not seize this moment to put him in his place?Lucas’ attitude just now had been firmly etched into Edwin’s mind.No matter what, he had to put on the airs of an elder.Wasn’t that what the family always liked to do—put him up on a pedestal and roast him over the fire?If he criticized Lucas even slightly, the rest of the family would step in and say that he was the elder, that he should be more accommodating, that it was no big deal.Everyone felt that since Lucas was the junior, Edwin should naturally give way.But had they ever thought about the fact that he and Lucas were actually around the same age?More importantly, Lucas had neve

“I’m tired. I don’t want to say anything more.”Aurora understood Philip’s cue and immediately walked over to help lower the bed, adjusting it so he could lie down comfortably.Seeing this, Edwin let out a cold snort.At this point, what was there left that he could not see clearly?It was obvious that Philip was completely standing on Lucas’ side.No matter what he said, the other party was unwilling to listen.So why bother doing something so thankless?“I’ll come see you another time, then.”After saying that, Edwin did not hesitate and turned to leave the ward.Lucas shot Aurora a look and immediately chased after him.Aurora could not help shaking her head, unsure what to say.By all logic, she should have stopped Lucas and not let him go after Edwin.But she knew very well that Lucas was holding in a lot of anger—if he did not let it out, he would not feel at ease either.So why dwell on it?After all, this was a matter between uncle and nephew.Why should she get involved?Phili

Chapter 2314

This alone had not been easy, and he had also taken Edward’s feelings into consideration.So, Philip truly had found a way to satisfy both sides.How could Aurora not admire him?“You can really tell?”Philip was somewhat surprised.At first, he had thought Aurora was simply trying to cheer him up.Now, it seemed things were not that simple after all.Because when Aurora said this to him, her eyes were shining the whole time.That was why Philip believed she meant it.“Of course I can tell. And I think that with a grandfather like you, Lucas must be very happy.”Philip froze for a moment, then burst into hearty laughter.“You clever girl—you really know how to speak. Every word you say hits just right, and you’ve got this old man laughing.“I haven’t been this happy in a very long time.”Aurora was also a little surprised.She had not expected Philip to speak so directly.“I’m just speaking honestly. If there’s anything I said wrong, Grandpa, you can tell me directly.”At that, Philip

Chapter 2315

“So you ran to Grandpa just now to complain, and now you’re still not satisfied. Is that it?”“And what about you? With Grandpa standing on your side, you should be feeling pretty smug.”Lucas found it utterly ridiculous.“If anyone should be feeling smug, it’s you.”Lucas raised an eyebrow slightly, genuinely puzzled. “You were useless to begin with. If I happened to come out on top against you, why would that be something worth feeling smug about?”“Put another way—even if I did win against you, I wouldn’t feel any sense of achievement at all. You wouldn’t be unaware of that, would you?”“Lucas, what nonsense are you spouting?”Edwin could no longer suppress the fury in his heart.He could tolerate others calling him useless, but what right did Lucas have to say that about him?If Philip had not handed the company over to Lucas, how could he have ended up useless?He had wanted to manage the company too, but had anyone ever given him the chance?Philip and Edward had always guarded a

Chapter 2316

The hatred in Edwin’s eyes grew ever more obvious.All he had ever wanted was attention from others, just a chance to prove himself.But now, he had nowhere left to turn.It was all because of Lucas forcing him into this corner.If not for Lucas, how could he have fallen to this state?At times, Edwin even wanted to ask whether Lucas had ever truly regarded him as an elder.Or to put it another way—if Philip had never found him back then, would this family have been better off?Every time these thoughts surfaced, Edwin felt deeply unsettled.He always felt that whether he existed in this family or not made no difference at all. He also could not understand why Philip had insisted on finding him and bringing him back.Wasn’t that simply asking for trouble?Wouldn’t his disappearance have given this family a better life instead?Philip had brought back Edwin.Back then, when Edwin’s biological mother, Maria Mills, went looking for Philip, he had not believed Edwin was his child at first

Chapter 2317

“You can try doing that if you dare.”Philip was not the least bit intimidated by her threat.“You were the one who climbed into my bed back then, and now you want to use a child to threaten me. Do you really think that’s possible?“Open your eyes and look at reality. Have you forgotten who’s standing behind me?”Maria finally came to her senses.Going up against the Carter family was nothing more than an ant trying to shake a tree.How could she possibly succeed in threatening a century-old family like the Carters.That would be like an egg smashing itself against a rock—she would be throwing her life away.“But I can’t let this child be born for nothing.”Maria clenched her teeth. “I don’t care. I went through a lot to give birth to him. No matter what, he’s your biological child. You can’t treat me like this.”She had her own calculations.Even if she couldn’t use the child to threaten Philip, she still had to get back what she believed she was owed.Philip said nothing.Instead, he

Chapter 2318

Otherwise, whether he could even have been born would have been another question altogether.The Carter family had such excellent conditions.If his mother had not chosen well, he would never have been able to live such a good life.So, what right did he have to resent his mother?At the very least, she had given him this life.If not for her, he would not even exist.But over the years, her drifting from place to place, without a stable home, had also become a knot in Edwin’s heart.He resented Philip for refusing to bring his mother into the family.He also hated Philip’s coldness and indifference.Back then, Philip truly had not intended to keep him.Even as a small child, Edwin had sensed it.He knew his mother had done something wrong, but a child was innocent.So how could Philip be so heartless?From that moment on, Edwin had worked relentlessly, trying to climb to a position that would satisfy Philip.Yet after all these years of effort, there had been no result at all.No matt

“I don’t believe a word you’re saying!”Edwin shouted back, as if trying to cover up the inferiority buried deep inside him.“Those words of yours could never be true, because you were born with everything the Carter family has.”Edwin let out a cold snort. “Someone like you, born with a silver spoon in your mouth, how could you ever understand the hardships other people go through?“You have no sense of empathy at all. You don’t even know how others survive. You’re forever trapped in your own world.”Lucas did not know what to say at first.But looking straight into Edwin’s eyes, he spoke seriously. “I can tell you with absolute certainty that even without the Carter family, I would still live very well.”Before Edwin could respond, Lucas continued on his own.“Because I have the ability, resources, and qualifications. I led the Carter Group to new heights and showed it a far broader world.”Lucas’ voice grew firmer. “But can you?”Edwin was just about to speak when Lucas went on, “Yo

Chapter 2320

No matter what the other did, he followed suit, learning and imitating.Over the years, he had basically been trailing behind Lucas.Whatever Lucas did, Edwin would subconsciously copy.Back then, Philip thought it was nothing more than childish imitation and did not say much.After all, the child he had fathered and his grandson were indeed close in age, so he often let the two of them spend time together.Yet every time Philip saw Edwin, he was reminded of that disgraceful period of his life.He had never imagined that he, a towering figure in the business world, could be schemed against by a mere housemaid.Every time he thought of it, Philip felt deeply distressed, as if a large hand were gripping his heart tightly.In the end, he chose to hand the child entirely over to Edward to raise, and he rarely went to see Edwin himself.In his view, Edward was taking good care of the child, and there was no need to worry about him being mistreated.With nothing to worry about there, he migh
