“Dad, don’t be angry. I just-” Marlondo explained.
“Shut up!” Stephen shouted and pointed at the three people with trembling hands. “The three of you, get out of here! Get
outl
Stephen was infuriated, and the shouting could be heard clearly even from outside the house. Seeing Stephen’s anger, the three of them dared not to defy him and fled the scene.
The two younger men ran the fastest. Marlondo ran out of the study. When he turned around and closed the door, he saw Stephen slumped there, unable to breathe.
“Dad!” Marlondo roared and rushed back into the room.
Ten minutes later, an ambulance whistled and rushed into the Hoffman manor.
The guests had not left, and the arrival of the ambulance immediately attracted the attention of many people. They saw Stephen lying on a stretcher and carried to the ambulance. Only a few people from the Hoffman family were left to greet the guests while the rest all drove off, following behind the ambulance.
“Mr. Hoffman was carried into the ambulance on his 80th birthday?” the guests wondered.
“During the banquet, Mr. Hoffman looked quite tough. He was chatting and laughing and had a few drinks. How did he suddenly become like this?” they pondered.
“What’s going on?” Kendrick looked at the manor’s door. He came to the Hoffman manor to ask for help. The Zabel family wanted to move to Yrinas, so they needed someone to support them. Although the Hoffman family lived in Lofbury, Kendrick’s family could rely on the status of the Hoffman family to be accepted in Yrinas.
As for the Zabinski family, Kendrick didn’t consider them for the time being. During the last auction. he had a conflict with the Zabinski family. With Kendrick’s personality, he wouldn’t be humbled and beg for help.
Initially, Kendrick had matters to discuss, so he was a little upset when he saw Stephen being taken away by an ambulance.
Someone knew a little of what had happened and began to speculate. “I heard that Mr. Hoffman asked Robert to go to the study. After that, someone outside the study heard Mr. Hoffman scolding Robert, asking him to get lost. Then they saw Marlondo rush into the study and call an ambulance.”
Marlondo was the eldest son of the Hoffman family.
Hearing this, Kendrick, who had been a little unhappy, suddenly looked delighted.
Kendrick thought, “Wow, Robert. You’ve angered Stephen and caused him to be taken away in an ambulance. Ha–ha. Now you’ve offended the Hoffman family. How would the Labelle family protect you now?”
Kendrick was still thinking about how to get involved with the Hoffman family. Upon hearing this news, Kendrick immediately made a decision. Robert was the breakthrough!
For the first time, Kendrick wondered, “Robert is so cute. Isn’t this a gift from heaven?”
In Kendrick’s heart, a plan to deal with Robert had gradually formed.
After leaving the Hoffman manor, Carlos, who was in the driver’s seat, looked back at Robert and said with a smile. “Mr. Zabinski, how do you feel about coming to the Hoffman family today?”
Robert smiled and replied, “Not bad. We got along well.”
Robert didn’t mention anything about the unpleasant situation just now.
Kendrick, who was returning to Yrinas from Lofbury, looked at Marilyn sitting in the passenger seat and advised, “Marilyn, I suggest that you should find a way to cut ties with Robert completely as soon as possible. Robert made Stephen so angry that Stephen was admitted to the hospital. The Hoffman family didn’t have a chance to give Robert a hard time now. After Stephen has recovered, the Hoffman family would definitely go and find Robert. At that time, the Labelle family would also get into trouble. If the Hoffman family vent their anger on you, it would be bad!”
Marilyn looked out the window and said impatiently, “You don’t have to worry about me.”
“Marilyn, what are you saying? I’m your boyfriend. How can I not worry?” Kendrick stretched out his right hand to pull Marilyn.
