Ms. Attractive and inciting CEO - Chapter 628
"Yeah. This is more like a family meeting but before that you have to check out this file" Edward said.
And Jean handed him the file. At the same time Scott entered the room and took his place beside Jean. Involuntarily their fingers entwined and Jean leaned into his hug.
Elder Braxton looked at the couple and then averted his gaze on to the file Jean gave him. He slowly opened it and even the first page made him froze.
"This…"
The is the logo on Council and by seeing it, Elder Braxton almost figured it out that Jean is a council member.
She is already close to Enrick and Iris. But why is Edward supporting her?
She is from the organization which is the reason for his mother and uncle's death.
"Please continue. Don't judge everything before you clearly look into the matter" Jean said.
Scott just maintained his silence. Though he can give her a supporting hand, his wife is capable enough to handle this.
After all, it was her parents who died and it is her closest person who suffered. If there is anyone who deserves to take revenge it is her and as well as Edward.
Even he suffered a lot. After all, it was the worst nightmare to face if it was his own father who tried to murder his mother and sister.
Meanwhile Elder Braxton flipped to the next page and his hands started to tremble. The room etched with silence and by the every passing second his facial expressions starred to turn worse.
He didn't expect these.
Not even in his dreams.
He never knew that his second son who is so filial to him would do these things behind his back. His second son totally destroyed the peace he and his first son sweated to build in the underworld.
After seeing all these he couldn't help but feel that whatever council did till now is right. The only thing that made him still oppose the council is death of his first son and second daughter in law.
"Are these really true" his hoarse, choked up voice sounded in the room after god knows when.
"We assure you grandfather" Edward said and Elder Braxton sighed.
He looked at the woman who is sitting on the bed in her husband's arms.
"Ms. Grey, I am very sorry for your loss. Whatever your mother did against my son is right. It was me who was so foolish… because of my love for my son I didn't realize that he was doing all these things" Elder Braxton said.
The file Jean handed him earlier is the elaborate description of whatever his second son is doing behind the closed doors.
Human trafficking, forced brothels, drug mafia, mass killings, weapon dealings with the terrorist countries…
Many more like this.
Jean had every evidence of it with her. What he doesn't know is that Edward, Jean and Julian together collected these proofs. Some of them, they faked it but in real whatever they are showing to him are true
Jean sadly smiled at Elder Braxton.
"There is another person for whom you should feel sorry for. More than me…he suffered because of your second son." Jean said.
Elder Braxton calmly nodded his head. He knew that there will be many people for whom he should feel sorry for.
For whom he should apologize. When his first son died he would not have handed the position to his second son. But he handed him all the power and totally retired from the underworld.
He went back to his birth country and started concentrating on politics and business. After Edward was ready, he handed him all the business and only concentrated on politics.
He shouldn't gave freely let go of his second son. That much of power is truly fatal to thousands of innocent life's.
"Ms. Grey. Who is that person I should apologize for?" he asked after a few seconds of regret of what he did.
"My father" Jean simply answered.
"Your father? But excuse us….isn't your father dead?" he asked.
"That's a long story. But at the end of the day he was the one who suffered more than anyone could imagine" Jean said.
"I am sorry for that Ms. Grey."
"You can tell him directly you know" Jean smiled. Scott couldn't help but smirk at his wife's antics.
"Oh? Is he here" Elder Braxton was about to continue but Jean already called for her father.
"Papa" She got habituated to calling him like this after the constant persistence from her father.
As soon as the person walked out from the shadow at one corner, Elder Braxton froze. Except for his heart beat he couldn't hear anything.
His mind went blank and his eyes blurred with tears. His legs buckled and his saggy cheeks trembled along with his lips.
"Julian" his voice trailed off as that person from shadows approached him.
