Tristan propped himself up, his voice heavy with memory. "You know I did it all to help you get stronger. Back in
the day, marrying your mother made headlines- two old-money families joining together. Too bad, after you were
born, her family lost everything."
Rupert Garcia's tone was ice cold. "You really don't know why my grandmother's family fell, do you? You and your
uncles all but orchestrated their downfall, tricked them into a bad business deal, and bought the company for
pennies. Mom wanted to save them with her trust fund, but you'd already convinced her to sign it over toso
you could block her from using it."
"ou."
Rupert ignored Tristan's shock and stepped closer, his gaze unwavering.
"How do | know? My mother died in my arms. She toldeverything. She askedto take it all back. You all
thought a kid wouldn't remember, but | remember every single thing."
"Even what | saw in your office that day."
It wasn't just Patrick Garcia and Edwin Garcia caught up in their mess.
Rupert had followed them that day and seen it all.
Tristan's breath grew ragged. Before he could find words, there was a sharp snap —a fruit knife stabbed straight
into the apple in front of him.
The apple looked untouched, but the plate beneath was already shattered.
Wiping his hands with a handkerchief from his pocket, Rupert's expression was calm, almost cold.
He said flatly, "If you want to enjoy your golden years, stop faking illnesses. One day you might get really sick,
and then you'll need your loving sons to sign off on your treatment."
Tristan's face turned crimson with rage. "Are you threatening me?"
"Relax. I'll make sure you get help. You taughtnever lose face. As for how we save you, I'll chat with Edwin
about that. If he actually marries Kay Winslet, with her ambitions, she'll probably wish you dead more than

Rupert tossed his handkerchief into the trash, right in front of Tristan. Watching it flutter down, Tristan felt his
heart sink with it.
He glared at Rupert. "If you hateso much, why not keep pretending? | promised everyone-once you get
married, everything is yours. You've spent years building your claim, but now you show your cards? That's not
like you."
Rupert said nothing and turned to leave.
Tristan's laugh was bitter. "It's because Sylvia Lloyd is with Lester Sanford now, isn't it? That's why you're losing
your cool."
"I remember you never likedmuch, then suddenly you started playing along.

caround, but no-it was right after Sylvia showed up at the Garcia house." s
At the mention of Sylvia, veins stood out on Rupert's hand as he gripped the doorknob.
Tristan sighed. "You're taking over

"The one who owes Reese isn't me—it's you."
"So, you'd ruin another woman's life for this one?"
Tristan's words sounded gentle, but his eyes were sharp and cunning.
Rupert didn't answer. He just walked out of the hospital room.

"Don't smoke, Rupert. It's bad for you."
Her words were caring, but Rupert just felt irritated for no reason.
still, he didn't want to take it out on someone innocent.
"Let the driver take you hfirst.”
"But | want to stay with you..."
Seeing his expression darken, Reese shrank back.
