Chapter 1140


    Although his question sounded polite, it was filled with a vicious and murderous intent...


    Robert''s words reminded him of himself back then. When Isabe brought him back, she suffered the


    brunt of suspicion.


    People would confront her each day and scold her for bringing a b*stard like him back to the Lindberg


    family. Some even wanted to chase her away.


    However, Isabe ignored the voices opposing her and insisted on keeping him in the family, against all


    odds.


    She even held a family conference and announced to everyone that if anyone dared to touch Danrique,


    they would be opposing her. In that case, she would protect him with her entire


    life!


    At that moment, Isabe was like a goddess to the young Danrique.


    Now that the same thing was happening right in front of him, he felt enraged.


    Unlike others, he was not the type to take precautionary measures and care about the bigger picture.


    Rather, he did things recklessly. Once he had his mind set on something, no one else could convince


    him otherwise.


    That was his style—aggressive and simple.


    “No, that''s not what I mean...” Robert panicked so much that he started sweating. “I''m here to discuss


    with you, Mr. Lindberg, so don''t be angry.


    Although Robert was an elder and Danrique treated him with respect, he knew Danrique''s temper well.


    If Danrique was enraged, he would not care about age or status.


    As long as he felt unhappy, he would fall out with the other person immediately.


    “It''s just a casual question,” Danrique smirked. “That child is like me, so I like him. If I don''t have a child,


    I might let him inherit the Lindberg Corporation!”


    “Um...”


    Robert was surprised, for he did not expect Danrique to have such ns.


    Actually, he had heard rumors about Danrique having an illegitimate son. However, he did not know if


    they were true. Danrique had never mentioned it before, so he did not dare to ask about it either.


    However, regardless of what happened, it was impossible for Danrique to let a child from the Nacht


    family inherit the Lindberg Corporation.


    “I never care about blood rtions or status.


    Those worthless things don''t matter to me! Once I''ve made up my mind, no one else can change my


    opinion."


    Danrique continued indifferently, “Also, that child might return to the Nacht family to be their heir


    after a short while. Your worry is meaningless!”


    “Return to the Nacht family?” Robert was confused. “Didn''t Charlotte say that she has already


    discussed with Zachary and established that the child will be staying with her?”


    “That''s what they discussed, but things are always unpredictable...”


    A gloating look shed across Danrique''s eyes. However, he did not continue speaking and changed


    the topic instead.


    “Anyway, this child can inherit both the Nacht family and the Lindberg family. He couldn''t care less


    about the Laurent family''s assets!”


    Although he might sound arrogant by saying this, it was the truth.


    Rendered speechless, Robert had no choice but to clear his throat to hide his embarrassment. “That''s


    not what I meant. I''m just afraid that Zachary might create some trouble...”


    “Let''s discuss it when he actually does something...” Danrique ced his wine ss down, got up, and


    prepared to leave. “Even if he actuallyes, I''m still here. What''s there for you to fear?”


    “You''re right.” Robert nodded profusely.


    “You''ve been busy for the entire day. Go back to the guest room and rest for a while.” While walking


    out, Danrique said politely, “I have to leave now. I''lle back in the afternoon to send you off.

    “Okay.”


    As Robert watched Danrique leave, the fear within him dissipated gradually.


    He heaved a deep sigh. This man is so hard to deal with...


    At that moment, he suddenly thought of Zachary. Although Zachary was also extremely domineering,


    he would still be concerned about the bigger picture and the families'' reputation. Hence, he would not


    cause a conflict so easily.


    However, Danrique was different. He never acted rationally—everything depended on his mood.


    Still, when he said that things are unpredictable, what does that mean?
