Emmanuel’s gaze was locked onto Gautier, his tone cold and cutting. “Are you
serious?
“As serious as it gets!” Gautier suddenly pulled out a gun, pointing it directly
at William.
Shock rippled through the crowd, their disbelief palpable as Gautier, the son,
stood ready to defy his father.
“Father, you’re wrong!” Gautier’s voice softened as he spoke. “Loyalty and
honor are the cornerstones of our family. The Quillen family helped us in our
darkest hour. How can we repay their generosity with betrayal?”
For a moment, William stared at his son, stunned, before a twisted grin crept
across his disfigured face, turning his expression into something grotesque,
like a bloodied specter.
“Gautier, stop!” Winona, who had been missing all night, suddenly appeared,
crying out desperately. “That’s your father!”

Behind her, Hubert, whose face was still disfigured from the Ferris Wheel
Happiness incident, stood silently. Released early from prison due to the
Verkade family’s newfound power, he now observed the scene–a father
broken and a brother aiming a gun at him. Where most would be horrified,
Hubert found himself smiling.
He always knew his brother was daring, shrewd, and unafraid, but never did
he imagine Gautier would contemplate killing their own father.
Emmanuel watched Gautier, his internal shock concealed beneath a stoic
exterior.
Angela tensed beside him, the thought crossing her mind, “Is he really going
to kill his father?”
While surrendering to his destiny, William’s grin twisted into something more
demonic than human. “Hehe, Gautier, the land belongs to whoever can rule it.
I’ve nothing more to add. But a true man’s ambition always remains
unshaken until the bitter end. My dream was always to see the Verkade
family rise to the top in Yeringham…

“And I did it! We made it to the top–not just in Yeringham, but all of Nuthana!
Hahaha! Even if it was just for a moment, we achieved it!
“My life was worth it! I regret nothing! But you… you’ve let me down, talking
about loyalty and righteousness! The Verkade family will never bow down-”
Bang!
The gunshot echoed, freezing William’s manic grin in place. His eyes widened,
filled with disbelief as he stared at his son, then slowly crumpled to the
ground.
The room fell into an icy silence, as if plunged into a deep, cold cellar.
Only the gun, still smoking in Gautier’s hand, indicated that the shot had just
been fired.
“W–William!!”
Winona rushed to her husband’s side, desperately shaking his lifeless body.
Realizing he was gone, she turned on Gautier, hitting and scratching him in a

“You ungrateful monster! How could you be so heartless? He was your father,
the man who gave you life and nurtured you, and you repay him with this? If I
had known, I would’ve let him destroy you thirty years ago!”
Despite her attacks and curses, Gautier stood firm, his voice steady and
resolute. “I told you, as humans, we must never stoop to deeds that
compromise our essential humanity. Father was wrong! I’m suffering too, but
I couldn’t follow him down that path!”
Tears welled up in his eyes, though whether they were genuine or just
crocodile tears was anyone’s guess.
Both Sage and Angela felt a deep unease, realizing just how dangerous this
man truly was.
With a deranged laugh, Hubert clapped fervently. “Fantastic job, Gautier!
You’re astounding! I’m cheering for you all the way! Let’s hear it for him!!“,
Verkade family’s dark, twisted drama cast a shadow over everyone in the

Even Emmanuel was silent for a long time until Gautier, still holding the gun,
approached him.
Angela feared Gautier might turn the gun on Emmanuel, but Sage held her
back, signaling her to remain calm.

Then, in a surprising move, Gautier flipped the gun in his hand and offered it
to Emmanuel.
“What’s this supposed to mean?” Emmanuel frowned, puzzled.
With a calm yet determined voice, Gautier declared, “I didn’t agree with my
father’s plans or involve myself in his fight against the Quillen family, yet I’m
still his son. If his death isn’t enough to satisfy you, then kill me too. However, I
