NovelEnglishChapter 1733
Hearing that, Edmund and Victor were both stunned. With disbelief written all over his face, Edmund exclaimed,
"My grandfather's elder brother? Are you kidding me, Matthew?" Victor was equally stunned. "He's my brother's
grandson?"
Matthew nodded. "Yes. Edmund, he's Victor Albright from your family!"
Widening his eyes, Edmund muttered, "H-How is this possible? My granduncle already passed away a long time
ago, and he's been gone for decades. You... Where did you cfrom, imposter?"
In response, Victor knocked him on the head with his arm. "Who are you calling an imposter? Where are your
manners?"
Despite his disgruntlement, Edmund couldn't bring himself to hit an old man who had shriveled limbs. So, he
could only turn to Matthew helplessly.
"He's not an imposter, but really your granduncle!" Matthew said.

"What?" Edmund blurted.
"You don't have to be surprised. Everyone else here are no commoners, either," Matthew said and told him what
happened earlier.
After listening to Matthew, Edmund was flabbergasted, and he gawked at the few unkempt, elderly men in front
of him. A few minutes later, he jerked back to his senses.
"Matthew, a-are you for real?" Edmund gasped.
"Why should I lie to you?"
Turning to Victor, Edmund stammered, "A-Are you really my granduncle?"
"Of course | am! If you don't know me, tell your father to cand see me. Hmph, when he was a kid, | was the
one who personally taught him martial arts!"
When Edmund heard that, his eyes turned red, and he could not stop his tears from overflowing.
"What are you crying for? I'm just asking for your father to identify me, not to snitch on you. Do you have to be
that terrified? My god, why does our family have such a useless descendant as you?" With his head lowered,
Edmund sobbed, "Granduncle, I... How | wish you could snitch onto my father! But... th-this is utterly
impossible already..."
Taken aback, Victor asked, "What... What do you mean by this?"
Matthew sighed. "Mr. Albright, Edmund's father has passed away!"
Instantly, Victor's eyes widened. "W-What did you say? Who's dead? W-Who's dead?"
"Edmund's father, the previous master of the Albright Family, Ramon Albright!" Matthew said.
Victor's eyes almost popped out of its sockets. "Ramon has passed away? That's impossible! Impossible!
Impossible!"
Three times in a row, he repeated that it was impossible. This was enough to show how bewildered he was. On
the other hand, Edmund held his face, crying silently. At the end of the day, his father's death was the most

Then, Matthew told Victor about how the Damron Family forced the death of Ramon, and Victor shook with rage
after hearing everything.
"Does the Damron Family of Bainbridge really think that they could do anything they want?!" Victor roared with
bloodshot eyes.
"Granduncle, this is all my fault..." Edmund stammered.
However, Victor waved his hand. "What did you do wrong? A man has to be upright, and nothing is more
common than a man standing up for his friend! If you're terrified of that Damron Family and stabbed your friend
in the back, I'll despise you instead!"
The look on Edmund's face relaxed, and he wept, "But, Father still died because of me!"
"It has nothing to do with you that your father was forced to his death," Victor said angrily. "Even if someone
from the Albright Family should take the responsibility, it should be that grandfather of yours who has no sense
of responsibility! Others are already stepping over our heads, but he, as the old master of the Albright Family,
actually watched in vain as his own son decapitated himself in public. How is he qualified to take charge of the
family?"
