Huo Jingtang was stunned for a second as he looked at Huo Yunshen in his wheelchair. Even if he looked messy, his eyes were still as sharp as ever.
Enough to make people shake in fear.
“I was about to talk to you about it,” Huo Jingtang smiled as he tried to regain his composure. “A new CEO will be appointed in tomorrow’s meeting.”
It was what Huo Yunshen had expected, but he’d never thought he’d hear it from Huo Jingtang’s mouth.
“You want Yunhai Entertainment?” Huo Yunshen asked, as he felt a pain in his heart.
“That’s right,” Huo Jingtang smiled without hiding his ambition any further. “I’m the oldest among our generation, by right it should be mine.”
“Why didn’t you talk to me about it first?” Huo Yunshen asked. “I’m still the CEO of the company!”
“A position that you’re about to lose.” Huo Jingtang smirked as he put his hands in his pockets. “I’ve been taking care of the whole company ever since you got into the accident. The position that you’re holding onto is just a decoration, nothing more.”
Huo Yunshen grasped the handles of his wheelchair tightly as he felt a chill run down his spine. It was as if the person in front of him was a total stranger.
Is this the person who I’ve looked up to? The person whom I thought of as my own brother? What changed him?
Huo Yunshen felt as if his heart was being stabbed by a knife. He never would’ve thought that the Huo family would fight amongst themselves for profit.
“I’ve always thought of you as my real brother, and I even thought you looked at me the same way, too,” Huo Yunshen said. “I still remember that time when you saved me from drowning…you weren’t this ruthless back then…”
Huo Yunshen was still grateful to him for saving him. That was why he’d always respected Huo Jingtang.
Yet the person standing in front of him was completely different. He’d become a person driven by money.
“I became like this because of you! I would have never changed if you had not robbed me of everything!”
“But I never took anything away from you!”
“Yes, you might not have,” Huo Jingtang said sarcastically. “But everyone would still hand everything to you. That’s not fair! I wouldn’t have minded if you were completely healthy, but do you think I will stand still while a crippled person like you takes over the company?”
Huo Yunshen lowered his head and looked at his own legs.
Huo Jingtang’s each and every sentence was like a knife stabbing his heart.
He was in pain.
Not because of his father’s and grandfather’s condition, but also of Huo Jingtang’s betrayal when Huo Yunshen needed him the most.
“This is the report I got from Professor Qin,” Huo Jingtang said as he noticed his words were taking effect. He threw a file in front of Huo Yunshen’s legs. “It says that you’ll never be able to stand again.”
Huo Yunshen picked the report up with his shaking hand and read the file. One glance at the words written on it was enough to plunge his heart into despair.
I’ll never be able to stand again…
Handling the report to him was like handing him a death sentence.
