Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 489

“So what if she’s upset?” Simon said provocatively. “My grandfather is her husband and the master of this family. She can’t just take what isn’t hers. We waited fifty years to come back. We’ve already given her enough courtesy.”

Harold trembled with rage.

“How utterly rude! Edgar, you haven’t raised this grandson of yours well at all. He’s nothing like Terence!”

“You old…”

Before Simon could finish, Harold cut him off impatiently. “Since your hand is injured, you should go to the hospital. Stop causing trouble here before you get yourself killed!”

Simon seethed with anger.

Edgar looked at Terence, his gaze falling on his disabled legs. “The Lockwood family has a tradition,” he declared. “Those with physical disabilities cannot lead the family. Terence’s condition disqualifies him from inheriting the Lockwood Group. From now on, the position of CEO will go to Simon.”

Simon’s face lit up. “Grandpa, thank you so much! I won’t disappoint you.”

Grace laughed at Edgar’s words.

“The Lockwood family also has a tradition,” she said. “We prioritize the first-born and the legitimate line. We do not recognize those from outside relationships. A bastard of unknown origins wants to steal the Lockwood fortune and become CEO? That’s beyond delusional.”

Edgar strode toward Grace. “This is the Lockwood family, and I am Edgar Lockwood! Everything here was originally mine. Just because you’ve held it for fifty years doesn’t make it yours. Now that I’m back, I am the only one in charge. If you say one more word, I’ll throw you out of this family.”

Mrs. Lockwood immediately stepped in front of Grace. “How dare you? You’re the one who abandoned your family for some other woman fifty years ago! Do you have any shame saying these things? You want to throw my mother-in-law out? Go on, say that in front of the ancestral tablets. Let’s see if our ancestors don’t get so angry their plaques fall off the wall!”

“You’re just a daughter-in-law! How dare you speak to me like that?”

Edgar suddenly raised his hand, pulling out a gun and pointing it at Mrs. Lockwood.
