Chapter 769
Dread washed over Darian, sending a ripple of goosebumps across his skin.
His body shook as the reality of the situation sank in.
He was well aware of Theodore’s ruthless side.
Their relationship, once father and son, was now nothing more than a bitter rivalry.
Today’s events were clear evidence of Theodore’s vengeful agenda.
The chilling realization struck Darian that while Theodore might not kill him here, he could inflict enough torment to leave him half-alive, a broken man.
His fists balled tightly, Darian bowed his head towards the coffin in a gesture of fearful submission.
Through clenched teeth, he muttered, “I confess.
I was wrong to listen to my mistress and abandon you, Aimee.
”
Even now, Darian wanted to put all the blame on Sharon.
After saying that, he fell silent and pulled a Long face, as if he had to say that just to satisfy Theodore.
Once Darian shut up, the atmosphere quickly turned awkward.
Everyone present held their breath.
Gazing at Theodore, Ariana felt worried and sad for him.
Now that she knew how awfully the Anderson family had treated Theodore, she was burning with anger and at the same time, she felt sorry for him.
Her heart ached even more when she remembered that he had had a nervous breakdown.
She was aware that his condition required special medication for emotional disturbances.
Her love for him was somehow getting stronger and stronger and she couldn’t explain it.
Maybe it was because of her pregnancy.
On the other side, Theodore squatted down in front of Darian.
Glaring coldly at the man in front of him, Theodore smiled and waved the barrel of his gun at Darian.
“Which hand do you want to keep?” he asked coldly.
Seeing Theodore pointing a gun at him, Darian’s face gradually became ferocious.
He yelled at Theodore, “How dare you? I’m your father! How can you be so ungrateful?”
Before Darian could finish his words, there was a loud bang.
Another gunshot had just been fired, and it was followed by Darian’s scream.

Theodore didn’t give Darian another chance to choose and directly shot his right arm.
He stood up indifferently and Looked down at Darian, who was covering his right arm and moaning in pain.
At that moment, the priest approached and said to Darian with a smile, “Now please continue to confess if you want to keep your left hand Please.
”
Big drops of sweat ran down Darian’s forehead from the pain.
He was too weak to move, so the guards helped him kneel down in front of Theodore.
He felt excruciating pain in his arm, and a strong hatred grew in his heart when he looked at the coffin in front of him.
Darian hadn’t expected that Aimee could still affect him even though she had been dead for so many years.
He should have gotten rid of everything related to her, including Theodore.
Alas, there was no point in having regrets now.
So many years had passed, and Darian still remembered the first time he had seen Aimee.
She was the most dazzling of the crowd, and her every move and smile was enough to make men’s hearts beat faster.
At that time, she had so many suitors, and it took him a lot of effort to get her.
