Before Gabriel could respond to Matthew’s accusations, Rafe jumped in with a bright smile, his voice dripping with innocence. “I’m the most obedient son, Father. You’re the only family I have left in this world. Who else could I rely on?”
Rafe then turned to Gabriel, his face painted with an expression so pitiful that it could tug at anyone’s heartstrings.
For a fleeting moment, Gabriel thought he saw a shadow of the woman who had once given up

everything for him in Rafe’s face. A strange warmth flickered in his heart, only to be quickly buried under years of caution and calculation.
Of course, that didn’t mean Gabriel truly believed Rafes words.
If he were that easily swayed, he wouldn’t have climbed to the heights of power he held today.
“Obedient or not, Rafe’s still a step above the rest of you.”
Gabriel thought his legitimate sons were nothing but a bunch of useless good–for–nothings.

groomed, refused to obey him or follow his orders.
If it weren’t for Benedict’s
status as the eldest son, Gabriel would’ve gotten rid of him long ago.
But while Benedict might be untouchable, there was
someone else Gabriel had no qualms about dealing with.
Gabriel cast a subtle glance at Rafe, the illegitimate son he had brought back.

illegitimate son he brought back, who could possibly
blame him for it?
Rafe seemed to have sensed

calculating gaze.
Though Gabriel quickly

masked his expression, Rafe’s
natural instincts didn’t miss the fleeting glint of scheming in his father’s eyes.

He sneered coldly in his heart, hiding the look of contempt in his eyes very well.
‘Do you think you can use me? Let’s see if you’ve got the guts for it, you old schemer.’
Before long, Gabriel threw out a parting remark, “Don’t forget the other task I gave you.” With that, he led Rafe away from Matthew’s courtyard.

was cold and commanding.
Rafe raised an eyebrow at that.
‘So he brought me back just to lock me up? How amusing!
Not that it mattered to Matthew, there wasn’t a place in this world that could truly
hold him.
Still, he had to play along.
