He looked at Samuel Dalton standing beside Patriarch Dalton, and suddenly understood.
From the beginning, Patriarch Dalton never intended for him to beco the head of the Dalton Family!
The reason why Patriarch Dalton let him get involved in family affairs earlier was simply to pacify him!
And most likely, everything he did was just groundwork for Samuel Dalton!
In that mont, Sidney Dalton’s mind suddenly beca exceptionally clear.
As Sidney Dalton spoke, everyone turned to look at him.
Seeing the disbelief lingering in Sidney Dalton’s eyes, many couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.
It seems Sidney Dalton didn’t expect the final outco to be like this.
"Father, are you mistaken?"
Sidney Dalton spoke out in disbelief, questioning Patriarch Dalton.
A hint of ruthlessness slowly erged in his eyes.
Patriarch Dalton looked at him with a calm gaze, without the slightest evasion in his eyes "You’re very capable, but my ideal choice has always been your brother."
These words completely shattered any hopes Sidney Dalton had.
"Moreover..."
Patriarch Dalton suddenly gave him a aningful glance.
Just that one look sent an inexplicable chill down Sidney Dalton’s spine.
His inner vigilance imdiately heightened.
Patriarch Dalton didn’t continue what he was going to say.
Because right after he spoke those two words, agents from the security bureau suddenly burst into the banquet hall.
They moved swiftly and orderly, quickly surrounding the entire hall.
At their head was none other than the director of the security bureau.
The people in the banquet hall were stunned by the sudden commotion.
"Are these people from the security bureau?!"
"Looks like it, even the director is here..."
"What’s happening to the Dalton Family?"
"...The director certainly doesn’t seem to be here with good intentions."
So people began whispering among themselves.
However, others remained calmly observing.
Among them were Zoe Sinclair and her people, as well as Patriarch Dalton.
Only Patriarch Dalton sighed inwardly upon seeing the security bureau agents.
Samuel Dalton glanced at Patriarch Dalton, noting his reaction.
A faint sneer escaped him.
After entering, the security bureau director surveyed the banquet hall.
Upon seeing Selena Kensington, he paused, then looked away.
Afterward, the security bureau director gazed at Patriarch Dalton.
"Patriarch Dalton, I truly apologize for interrupting at this ti."
The director cleared his throat and then spoke loudly.
His voice was powerful enough for many to hear him.
Patriarch Dalton’s expression remained unchanged, as he leaned on his cane and approached "No problem, Director. What brings you here?"
The security bureau is a direct agency under The Empire, even Patriarch Dalton wouldn’t dare openly confront them in the presence of so many people.
The security bureau director turned his gaze to Sidney Dalton and said, "Recently, I received a complaint regarding your second son, Mr. Sidney Dalton, outlining so past transgressions. Among them, the case of the Kensington couple’s car accident over a decade ago."
"The evidence indicates that the incident was orchestrated by your second son, Sidney Dalton, who bribed Mason Kensington to provide information and tampered with the Kensington couple’s vehicle...."
"Additionally, the complaint outlines nurous other unscrupulous business competition tactics used by Mr. Sidney Dalton..."
The security bureau director spoke slowly.
Regarding the evidence Selena Kensington submitted to them, they promptly verified the content.
The findings indeed matched what was detailed in the evidence.
All those actions were orchestrated by Sidney Dalton himself.
"Because the evidence is irrefutable, we are here today to apprehend Mr. Sidney Dalton."
Once the security bureau director finished, the hall suddenly fell into terrifying silence.
The crowd montarily found it hard to believe the director’s words.
They couldn’t fathom that Sidney Dalton had committed such horrendous acts over the years.
Using every ans to eliminate business rivals—what a radical ntality...
And yet, what Sidney Dalton did goes beyond just this.
While so were stunned, indeed, they recalled many relevant incidents.
So attendees have connections linking their family’s businesses to the entertainnt industry.
Naturally, they closely follow developnts within the industry.
They rember how the industry was previously dominated by Stardust, Radiance, and Aethel, maintaining a balanced and stable growth.
But following the Kensington couple’s car accident, Aethel beca increasingly low-key, and Stardust began to decline.
Only Radiance thrived continuously.
Later, Aethel was swiftly acquired by Radiance.
If Stardust hadn’t had Selena Kensington as their backbone before, it would likely have eventually fallen into Radiance’s grasp.
This ant the entire entertainnt industry would be dominated by Radiance.
In today’s information age, entertainnt is receiving increasing attention.
The entertainnt sector has beco a leisure area for many people.
If Radiance controlled the entertainnt industry, The Empire would certainly favor them with more resources.
As they thought about this, suddenly, the crowd understood Sidney Dalton’s motive for his actions.
But even so, it shouldn’t lead to life-threatening asures.
For a mont, everyone’s gaze turned to the stunned Sidney Dalton.
Upon hearing the security bureau director’s words, Sidney Dalton’s first reaction was: impossible!
After all, those pieces of evidence were hidden in his safehouse, accessible solely by him!
Not to ntion the safe storing those items was made of special material—impossible to open by force.
Even when Sidney Dalton went there personally, he had to undergo rigorous identity verification before opening the safe.
Thus, how had the evidence originally ant to be in the safe ended up in the security bureau director’s hands?!
For a mont, Sidney Dalton found it incredibly astounding.
When the attendees glanced his way, Sidney Dalton instinctively retorted, "That’s impossible!!!"
His gaze montarily scattered before refocusing.
He seed to have steadied himself, fixedly looking at the security bureau director, "Director, you must have the wrong person. It’s inconceivable for Mr. Dalton to have committed such acts."
He had just pondered that this might be a setup by the security bureau.
Since he felt certain only he could open his safe.
In the last couple of days, aside from visiting Roxanne Sutton once, he had stayed at the Dalton estate.
How could he have had the ti to visit the safehouse?
Wait a minute...
Sidney Dalton seed to have realized sothing.
