Seeing the confused look on her face, Mr. Drexler slowly approached her, lowered his head, glanced at the sofa in front of him, and gently ran his wrinkled hand over it.
Through his world-weary eyes, a hint of sadness flashed, and then he began to speak slowly.
"My wife."
His wife?
Upon hearing this, Sumr Shawcross’s expression changed. Mr. Drexler’s sorrowful appearance left her sowhat stunned.
"How many wives do you have?"
She didn’t believe that the woman making Mr. Drexler sad was Noah Drexler’s mother.
After all... He was cruel to their mother and son back then, so how could he mourn for her?
Sumr’s question made Mr. Drexler’s expression shift, though slightly surprised, he still responded.
"One."
He only had one wife in his lifeti.
At thirty, he married a wife ten years younger than him.
After Mr. Drexler finished speaking, Sumr’s face revealed a surprised expression.
One?
Then he ntioned Amber, is she Noah Drexler’s mother?
Just as Sumr was lost in surprise, a sudden commotion ca from outside the door...
...
The man hurried to the small courtyard...
—Bang!
With a loud noise, the small wooden gate of the courtyard was ruthlessly kicked open by the man!
"Young Master!" Seeing the man appear, the servants in the courtyard were startled, and by the ti they reacted, the man had already strode into the small building.
Upon entering, he furrowed his brows, his gaze intensely sweeping over Mr. Drexler, eventually landing on the now restored Sumr Shawcross.
Seeing that she was in no distress, the expression on his handso face slightly eased, yet remained stern!
Mr. Drexler looked at the man in front of him with a severe, angry expression, and his own face fell too, as he angrily questioned him!
"That door was your mother’s favorite before, and you destroyed it?"
Upon hearing Mr. Drexler’s words, Noah Drexler’s expression turned even more unpleasant. He pressed his thin lips and coldly responded.
"You have no right to ntion her."
After speaking, he strode to Sumr Shawcross’s side.
Noah Drexler’s words made Mr. Drexler take a deep breath, then dissatisfied, he questioned him.
"So, now that this woman has been exposed, you don’t even bother to pretend to respect ?"
It was only today that he realized the true reason Noah had willingly returned to The Drexler Family, and agreed to shake hands and reconcile.
It wasn’t for himself, but... for this woman!
His good son turned out to be much more emotionally invested than he imagined.
After Mr. Drexler finished speaking, Noah Drexler’s expression grew darker, then he seriously stared at Mr. Drexler for a mont before moving his lips to slowly warn him.
"If you act recklessly, I will destroy The Drexler Family!"
Although... reaching this point ca a little too soon, he hadn’t been idle for the past month or so!
After Noah Drexler’s words settled, Mr. Drexler paused for a mont before suddenly realizing and laughing.
"So that’s what it is. Over the past month, you’ve done quite a bit!"
His son had deeper machinations and ans than he had imagined.
In the past month or so, he had already successfully disrupted the internal affairs of The Drexler Family and alienated Mr. Drexler from the others.
The final injured ploy led him to deliberately enrage Mr. Drexler, stripping the remaining few mbers of The Drexler Family of their rights, ultimately making him provoke public anger and chill their hearts.
