"First, she is far from innocent," Henry refuted imdiately. "Second, there is no need to be so hostile towards . I never tried to avoid accountability."
Henry raised the docunt in his hand and said, "This—I have been doing all of this paperwork to start a company. I AM taking accountability here."
"I trust Sarah more than you because she has no ulterior motive," Graham said. "Just admit it, Henry, say to my face that you planned to take Kate’s baby and give it to your father in exchange for the company’s ownership."
"I also heard from Sarah that you strangled her when she refused to annul the engagent," Graham parroted Sarah’s words. "You are truly a despicable bastard, Henry. Jas will be disappointed."
Henry slamd the table and stood up. He glared at Graham, who sneered at him.
"DON’T YOU DARE BRING MY BROTHER INTO THIS!" Henry shouted. "YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW!"
Graham was glad that he finally got so reaction from Henry. As expected, Henry wouldn’t be able to keep up with his calm and collected charade the mont he brought Jas to the table.
Of course, Henry was still the sa naive young boy who lurked under his late brother’s shadow.
Thus, Graham continued to incite his anger. The angrier Henry got, the more prone he was to admit everything.
"Did I say sothing wrong? Your brother will be disappointed knowing you tried to hurt his beloved woman!" Graham said. He got up from the sofa once he felt that Henry was too intimidating. As they stood facing each other, Graham continued. "Kate should’ve been with instead. I know how to treat her right, and more importantly, I won’t try to hurt her and steal her baby!"
"YOU—!" Henry rushed towards Graham and grabbed his collar. "Say that again, I will fucking kill you!"
Graham grinned, full of satisfaction, "This is the real you, right? Co on, Henry, I’ve known you since you were just a child. You were the little devil that made everyone’s life miserable, and now that you’re an adult, you are still the sa devil who made Jas and Kate’s life miserable."
Graham’s eyes turned cold as he imagined how Henry would do this to Kate eventually. He might snap and get angry at her, and he might abuse her.
After all, Henry wasn’t the best at anger managent.
"You are a son of a whore. You shouldn’t have been born," Graham said cruelly. "You never bring joy to anyone in this world, Henry Grant."
Henry couldn’t handle it anymore. It was the straw that broke the cal’s back. He clenched his fist and punched Graham in the face.
"ARGH!"
Henry released Graham’s collar, and the latter fell to the sofa with a nosebleed. He felt the stinging pain, followed by dizziness.
Never in his life had he expected Henry to punch him.
"BASTARD!" Graham got up and prepared to punch Henry as payback, but Henry was stronger than him. So Henry simply grabbed Graham’s arm and flung him to the side.
Henry took a step back, staring at Graham, who grimaced in pain as he got punched. The nosebleed continued to flow nonstop, but Graham didn’t try to block his nose.
Henry’s mind got hazy for a mont.
He cursed himself as he knew that he fucked up.
Graham tried to get up and attack him again, but this ti, Henry grabbed his neck to keep him in place and said, "Stop this, Graham. I don’t feel good beating my brother’s best friend."
"Hahah! That’s so rich coming from you, Henry!" Graham said. "You are the vilest person I know in this world. You tricked a good woman to bear your child, take the baby, and let it die in your father’s hand! You also strangled Sarah just because you wanted to annul the engagent!"
"You are so fucking selfish! Just like your whore mother!"
Graham’s words hurt so much that Henry was about to lose control once more.
He clenched his fist again, ready to give Graham another punch, until his phone suddenly rang.
Graham and Henry turned their neck to the table at the sa ti, and they could read the caller ID.
