Blake caught his icy gaze, smirked, and snorted, "What's your game plan for me?”
The man's eyes were filled with coldness, “I've prepared a mansion for you in Y Country. You'll be on a private jet tomorrow and will live out your golden years there."
Blake never thought he'd see the day when his own grandson would banish him abroad. He looked at Bernard in disbelief, "Do you even know who put you where you are now?”
Bernard leaned his hand against his chin and casually replied, "Of course it was you."
Propping himself up with his walking stick, Blake scoffed, "I was beginning to think you'd forgotten."
Bernard slightly tilted his head, his indifferent gaze coldly fixed on the old man, "I wouldn't forget, and neither would I forget your coldness back in the day."
Upon hearing this, Blake couldn't even bear to meet his gaze and subconsciously averted his eyes, "I did wrong by you back then, but you can't just treat your own grandfather like this over a woman, can you?"
Bernard withdrew his gaze, looking out the window as he calmly said, "When I invited you to my engagement ceremony, I told you that she's my life. Without her, there's no me, yet you still wanted to hurt her…”
He paused for a moment, then turned back to the elderly man, "Since you don't value my life, why should I value you?"
Blake's heart skipped a beat as if, through Bernard, he saw his estranged son kneeling before him, crying and begging him, "Dad, she's my life. Hurting her is like killing me. Please, don't hurt her. I'm begging you!"
His brother was speechless. This was a bet they had made when they were ten years old. He couldn't believe his brother still remembered it. He was over fifty now, how could his memory be so good?
While they were having their private conversation,Blake still insisted on his positions, trying to stop Bernard's marriage, "No matter what, I won't agree!”
Bernard scoffed, "I'm not here to ask for your opinion. I'm here to inform you. Don't get it wrong…”
After finishing his words, Bernard stood up from the sofa, turned sideways to face Blake, "Tomorrow morning, I'll send someone to pick you up."
