Chapter 228 Outright Beating

The news came swiftly, partly due to the efficiency of Alexander’s subordinates, but also because
Ethan
on had few contacts after returning to his home country. He was almost idle, his timergely spent
appeasing his girlfriend and her family or heading to a hotel with Sasha.
This kind of secret where a man sneaks off to a hotel room with another woman behind his
girlfriend’s back naturally caught the attention of the investigators first. After all, if Alexander wanted
them to investigate someone, that likely meant they were supposed to be looking for dirt. Therefore,
all hotel room records and surveince footage were promptly sent over.
Hearing the truth from Isabe’s thoughts and actually witnessing his own best friend being
manipted like this were two different things.
Involuntarily, Alexander let out a heavy sigh.
When Isabe saw Alexander engrossed in his phone, she couldn’t help but lean in.
Although the videos weren’t yed, one could basically tell who it was just by looking at the
thumbnail.
A surge of joy welled up in Isabe’s heart.
Great, everything’s going smoothly! Alexander, being so smart, must have figured it out, right?
After putting away his phone, Alexander turned to Rnd and said, “Rnd, I need to speak with
your privately.”
Taken aback, Rnd noticed the rare serious expression on Alexander’s face. Despite his
confusion, he still rose to his feet.
The others looked at them curiously, asking if they had any secrets they couldn’t share.
A straightforward reveal? I hope that Rnd will be able to handle itter. Even though it isn’t right
to revel in others misfortunes, I’m genuinely curious about Rnd’s reaction. I would be great if I
could watch it happen in person.
Despite her usual brazenness, Isabe felt it inappropriate to follow them at that moment,
Alexander, who was about to get up and leave, paused for a moment before taking Isabe’s hand.
Isabe was surprised.
“Let’s go together,” Alexander said.
Immediately, Isabe eagerly followed along.
The rest of the Quirk family watched in silent anticipation, their nerves taut. But soon, they were left
speechless, for the involved parties had entered the room, so Isabe’s thoughts were no longer
audible to them.
Meanwhile, Rnd slightly furrowed his brows. Seeing Alexander’s serious expression and
Isabe’s awkward demeanor, he had an inexplicable sense of foreboding.
“What do you want to tell me?” asked Rnd.

The expression on Rnd’s face went nk in an instant, as he stared, dumbfounded, at
Alexander and Isabe
“Illegitimate child? Ethan? The high school tyrant who used to bully Sasha? He’s my half–brother
from the same father? And he even showed up today?”
This was the first time Isabe had heard Rnd’s voice so shaky. She guessed the impact must
have been quite significant.
Regrettably, this was just the beginning.
Rnd’s expression was extremely grim, and judging by the vein throbbing on his forehead, he was
evidently trying hard to keep his emotions in check. He hadplete faith in Alexander’s words, not
having a shred of doubt.
The revtion of his father’s betrayal of his mother for over two decades had hit him hard. He
wasn’t concerned about the pain he personally felt, but he was worried about the impact it would
have on his mother if she ever found out about it.
Rnd closed his eyes momentarily. “Alexander, Isabe, I appreciate you telling me the truth.
However, I would like you to keep this quiet for now. I’ll find a way to handle itter.”
Exhausted, Rnd spoke his mind, only to hear Alexander interject, “This isn’t the main point of
what I wanted to tell you.”
Rnd was taken aback, staring at Alexander in disbelief. The issue of his father’s illegitimate child
wasn’t the main point? Could there possibly be something worse than this?
Isabe couldn’t help but say, “Brace yourself.”
Rnd was filled with fear.
Alexander pulled out his phone and fiddled with it, after which Rnd’s phone buzzed as he sent
several videos over.
Alexander made an excuse, saying. “I initially had concerns about him having some sort of scheme,
so I decided to have him investigated. Surprisingly, I stumbled upon something far more significant.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have chosen this moment to disclose him being your half–brother.
In truth, Rnd himself had found it quite peculiar. The matter of Ethan being an illegitimate child
could
be discussed at any time, so why not wait until the happy event was over an illegitimate child could
Yet, when he bewilderedly unlocked his phone and caught a glimpse of the video thumbnails, his
pupils abruptly contracted.
He immediately watched the videos, one after another.
Rnd’s eyes became bloodshot, his entire face turning an ashen hue. Even his robust body
started to tremble uncontrobly, the smartphone in his hand making a cracking noise.
When he looked up again, his face was already filled with murderous intent.
He actually….
Isabe paused, feeling that t
was something inexplicably off about Rnd’s reaction.

“Why didn’t she tell me? Why…. the child…” Rnd was so overwhelmed that he could barely
string his words together..
Alexander slightly furrowed his brows, thinking Rnd was too upset to think clearly. Hence, he
directly said, “If you really look into it, you should be able to find out how many months she’s been
pregnant. Perhaps it differs by a month from what you know. Also, can you recall if you two were
actually involved. during that time?”
Rnd staggered, his entire being shook. He wasn’t a fool, so he naturally remembered the
abnormalities. The child wasn’t his; it was the offspring of his half–brother from the same father but
a different mother, Sasha had merelye to him to cover it up.
Then, Alexander ryed the information he had previously obtained from Isabe’s thoughts,
expressing it through his own analytical perspective. “I think he knows about Sasha’s pregnancy.
Perhaps he’s trying to seize the family wealth from you. Even if he doesn’t inherit it, his future child
will.”
No man could bear such an insult, and Rnd was already seething with rage.
Isabe cautiously observed Rnd for a moment, before she couldn’t help but ask, “Do you want
to call off the wedding?”
It was as if Rnd suddenly snapped back to reality, and surprisingly, he dashed out..
Judging by his demeanor, he hadpletely lost his sanity, seemingly on the verge ofmitting
murder.
Before Isabe and Alexander could react, Rnd had already disappeared.
I initially thought that Rnd would handle this discreetly, out of concern for appearances. Is he
actually going to confront them head–on? Are the shameless couple about to be exposed?
Isabe immediately grew excited, quickly pulling Alexander to rush out and join the excitement.
As soon as they stepped out, they were met with a burst ofmotion.
Even from a distance, they could see that Rnd had already knocked Ethan to the ground with a
single punch.
That punch had knocked one of Ethan’s teeth clean out, and blood was smearing the corners of his
mouth. He looked utterly dazed.
Before he could react, Rnd had already grabbed onto his cor, throwing punch after punch,
almost as if he was pounding him.
The fierce beating had gasps of surprise rising from the crowd.
Stariled, Owen called out for someone to intervene.
However, the first to react was Stephanie, who rushed forward. As a result, Rnd only managed
tond three punches before she intervened. No matter how out of control Rnd was, he could
never bring himself to hit a woman.
Move aside!”
“Mr. Rnd, what do you think you’re doing? We’re here for your wedding. On what grounds are
you.

hitting him!” Stephanie was so angry that her eyes turned red, but she stood her ground against
Rnd, fiercely protecting her boyfriend.
“This has nothing to do with you, so move aside!” Rnd said

“Are… Are you really a cop? How can you be so violent and unreasonable!” Stephanie didn’t back
down an
inch.
At this point, others also stepped forward to pull Rnd away.
Supporting the panting Rnd, Daphne asked, “Rnd, what on earth are you doing?”
Owen anxiously nced at Ethan, noticing that even though he was injured, he didn’t pass out. He
instantly breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to re furiously at Rnd.
“What is the meaning of this? Hitting a guest at your own wedding!”
Looking at his father, Rnd’s expression darkened even further. “A guest? You’re calling him a
guest?” He pointed an angry finger at Ethan, about to say something, when he heard someone
calling him from the second–floor balcony.
When Rnd turned around, he saw Sasha’s pale face, her eyes brimming with tears.
Since she was a distance away, Rnd had no idea who Sasha was actually looking at.
However, he swallowed many of his words, merely staring coldly at the visibly unsettled Owen. He
said, “Dad, is he one of your guests? I do not wee him!
“Rnd?” Daphne was taken aback. When had her son be like this?
With gritted teeth, Rnd turned to his mother and said, “Mom, you probably don’t remember, but
he’s the school bully who fought with me back in high school. He once tormented Sasha!”
Isabe and Alexander, who had followed along, suddenly froze in their tracks.
The two exchanged a nce, sensing that something was off.
Why did he start beating Ethan up in public instead of dealing with this secretly? Since he has,
though, why not expose the scandalous actions of those two? Could it be because of pride, not
wanting others to know he’s been cheated on? But by concealing the truth like this, how is he going
to call off the wedding?
Alexander frowned slightly, also puzzled by Rnd’s actions.
The Quirk family was right in the middle of watching the fight when they heard this and found it
peculiar. Could it be that Rnd nned to conceal the matter about Sasha due to his pride?
Good heavens! Does he really think that? Rnd… You really are a fool!
