Chapter 771 I was Wrong!
"What's wrong? Can't I come?"
Vincent looked at Hollie, who was standing next to him and gritted his teeth in hatred.
He had wanted his eldest son to return to the country to help his youngest son and take advantage of this opportunity to nurture the relationship between the two brothers. Who would have thought that Hollie, the troublemaker of the family, would end up pestering his eldest son!
Chester, who had been bewitched, became more and more stupid. He could not distinguish right from wrong, and he was heartless.
"No! Dad, that's not what I meant."
"Then what did you mean?" Vincent's eyes widened.
Vincent was at a loss for words. He didn't know what to say.
Vincent sneered, his eyes full of disdain.
Chester was very afraid of Vincent, and his pupils shrank.
Hollie, on the other hand, smiled. She took a step forward and said to Vincent, "Uncle, listen to me. This is a misunderstanding."
"You must have heard the news of Beau's death. He..."
"Shut up. Did I ask you anything?" Vincent gave Hollie a cold glance.
For a while, Hollie could feel the murderous aura emanating from Vincent's body.
He looked at her as if looking at trash.
Vincent said, "The Valentine family is really unfortunate to have someone like you as our family member. When I see Jory one day, I must let him clean up the mess in our family."
He didn't hide the disgust in his words at all. He almost pointed at Hollie's nose and scolded her.
Hollie's expression changed. For a moment, she looked pretty good.
Seeing this, Chester quickly stepped forward and said, "Dad, it has nothing to do with her..."
"Snap—!"
"You b*stard!"
"It's all your fault. You listened to the rumors of others, went against your brother, and embarrassed your sister-in-law! Chester, how dare you! You don't deserve to be a member of the Benton family!"
Chester was slapped in the face by Vincent, and his face tilted to one side.
He covered his face with his hands, and his expression was obscure.
The second time.
This was the second time that Vincent had hit him because of Beau.
Beau was his son, wasn't he his son as well?
Beau didn't even want to change his surname and insisted on establishing his own sect.
But what about him? He wanted to go back to the Benton family and ask to change his surname, but Vincent did not allow it!
They were both his sons, so how could Beau receive such preferential treatment?
Seeing Chester's expression, Hollie thought to herself, "Here comes my chance."
She hurried forward to check on Chester's injury. While stopping Vincent, she said to Vincent, "Uncle, you only have Mr. Hughes as your son now. Do you really have to do this to him?"
"Get lost! It's none of your business that I teach my son a lesson!"
"Uncle!"
"Who is your uncle? You didn't even study well at such a young age. I can be your grandfather at my age!"
Hollie was stunned by Vincent's words.
According to the seniority of the Valentine family, as the daughter of Gian, she should indeed call Beau uncle.
It was indeed right to call Vincent grandfather.
But...
She wanted to seduce Beau and Chester, so how could she call him grandfather?
Seeing that she was in a dilemma, Chester calmed down and pulled her behind him.
He went straight to Vincent.
"I'm not a member of the Benton family. My last name is not Benton either. Have you forgotten?"
Vincent was furious. He didn't expect Chester to disobey him like this.
His heart skipped a beat. It was as if someone had slapped him in the face and he almost couldn't breathe.
He took two deep breaths and said to Chester in a rough voice, "Repeat it again?"
"I'm not your son!"
"Snap—!"
Another slap.
Vincent's lips moved, but he didn't say anything. He couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.
He would never have imagined that Chester would have such thoughts in his heart!
When Hollie saw the scene of the father-and-son battle, she couldn't help but feel amused. She only felt that it was retribution, but she didn't show it on the surface.
At this moment, a handsome middle-aged man in a suit came up from behind and whispered in Vincent's ear.
Vincent retracted his expression and became expressionless again.
He waved his hand, and a group of men in black rushed out from behind him.
These men in black carried Chester and were about to drag him out.
Chester was shocked and began to struggle.
"Let me go! What are you doing?"
Vincent watched this scene silently, his eyes full of indifference.
"Do you know why Beau doesn't want to change his last name? It's because he cares about you and wants to leave everything of the Benton family to you."
Chester was shocked. "Impossible! You lied to me!"
His last name was not Benton. Why did Beau not want the Benton family's property?
"I didn't let you change your last name because your mother's last name is Hughes. Your name was set before you were born. The last name Hughes is a pass in the Benton family, and it also represents a legitimate heir!"
"Your mother has passed away. You should at least get something."
"I want you to share the same last name as your mother in order to help you gain a firm foothold in the Benton family."
Upon hearing this, Chester directly forgot to struggle.
"Beau has his own career, and he wants to create a common business for his wife. After learning that you were deceived by a woman, Beau found me and asked me to give you more opportunities to gain experience."
"Otherwise, why would I let you attend the gathering of those rich and powerful families?"
In his view, this was training an heir.
But in Chester's eyes, Vincent took him to those banquets just to embarrass him.
He was mocked by many of his peers because he had no ability and was still timid. However, Chester blamed it all on others.
It was only now that Vincent thought of this. He felt that it was extremely ridiculous.
"Before you returned home, Beau had already signed an agreement with us. He will only take 5% of the Benton Group's shares. I'll leave all of the 50% I have to you."
Chester kept shaking his head. "No! It's impossible! You're lying to me!"
Vincent shook his head as if he didn't want to continue.
The assistant next to him patted Vincent's back to calm him down.
At the same time, he said coldly to Chester, who had been suppressed by others, "Believe it or not, with the addition of the 5% that you have now, as well as Mr. Benton's share, you will become the only successor of the Benton Group."
No one could compete with Chester. He would become the family master of the Benton family.
Even Hollie, who hadn't spoken at the side, was shocked.
Fifty-five percent of the Benton family's shares. What sort of concept was that?!
Chester didn't need to work hard at all. He could spend the rest of his life doing anything he wanted!
But now...
Vincent's face was gloomy. He said to Chester in front of everyone, "You are heartless. Even if I hand the company to you, you will not treat us well."
"It's better not to do that."
Chester's pupils contracted.
It was only then that he realized what Beau had given in to him and what his father had spoiled him for.
It turned out that the fatherly love and family love that he had been longing for had been with him for a long time.
However, he did not notice it and he had done something wrong.
He thought of Beau's death and the scene of Eliza scolding him that day.
Chester finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
"I was wrong! Father! I'm sorry! I was really wrong!"
