“Hudson, if you want to keep her, start paying more attention to her. Am I clear?”

Hudson nodded respectfully.

“I understand, Grandpa.”

Just then, Kevin hurried into the room clutching a sealed legal envelope.

“Mr. Walter, an urgent courier just dropped this off. They insisted you see it immediately.”

Hudson knit his brows and took the envelope.

“Who is the sender?”

Kevin shook his head.

“They didn’t say.”

Hudson’s gut told him this was going to be an unpleasant surprise.

Despite the feeling, he tore open the seal and pulled out the documents.

The bold heading “DIVORCE FILING & LEGAL NOTICE” hit him like a physical blow.

Hudson’s face drained of color as a lethal, freezing aura began to radiate from him.

Slide-

A photograph slipped out of the folder and hit the table.

Hudson looked down and saw the image of him and Amara in the master bedroom.

Knowing his grandfather and mother were watching, he lunged to grab the photo,

But John, his face already flushing with rage, beat him to it.

John stared at the image, his chest beginning to heave with a violent rhythm.

“Grandpa-”

Hudson started to speak, but John turned a look of pure, murderous fury on him.

Hudson kept his voice low and controlled.

John didn’t believe a word of it. “In the same bed? And you call it a misunderstanding? Are you saying this photo is a fake?”

Hudson’s jaw set. “The photo is real, but-”

John cut him off with a roar.

“If it’s real, then what the hell is there to say? Well?! What else is there?!”

Shaking with an uncontrollable rage, John raised his heavy cane and began striking Hudson.

“You b*stard! You absolute disappointment! How am I supposed to look Jade in the eye this? You have no shame, but I do!”

Hudson stood there and took the blows. John was using every ounce of his strength. The heavy wood thudded against his body, making him go pale with pain, but he didn’t make a sound.

Emily cried out in horror and rushed forward to intervene.

“John! Stop! Please! You’ll kill him!”

Hudson held out an arm to stop his mother, preventing her from getting too close.

“It’s fine. If Grandpa needs to hit me to calm down, let him. It was a misunderstanding.”

John was beyond reason now. Hearing Hudson’s excuses only made him more livid.

“You… you useless…”

His strength began to fail him, the strikes becoming weaker as he struggled for air.

“You absolute… disgrace…

In the next second, he clutched his chest with a look of pure agony and collapsed backward.

“Grandpa!”

Hudson’s face went white as he lunged forward to catch the old man’s falling body.

The paramedics arrived within minutes, and John was rushed to the hospital under police

escort.

Outside the Emergency Room, Emily paced frantically, her eyes red from crying.

“He’s going to be okay, right? He has to be okay.”

Hudson leaned against the sterile wall, his expression one of pure, dark brooding.

“We wait for the doctors.”

“Ugh!”

Emily let out a jagged, angry sigh, her resentment boiling over.

“Who did this? Who would do this the second the old man returned to the city?”
