Chapter 941 Dissolving The Master And Disciple Relationship
In order to save her life, her father had to make the painful decision to banish her.
After several years, the once spirited and towering man no longer existed.
Now, the father she saw had his face full of life's hardships, even his hair had begun to turn gray. He
had long lost his former appearance.
“Daddy, I've been unfilial. I've brought my son back to apologize to you.”
After she finished speaking, she placed both hands on the ground and repeatedly knocked her
forehead against the floor.
The expression on Holden, who was standing to the side, was also somewhat complex.
Back in the day, he had no choice but to get close to Wendy, the young mistress of the Hoffman family
trying to save his sister, Shannon. He used Wendy to gain access to secrets, seizing control over
Zaewora.
Initially, everything went according to his plan.
But for all his calculations and predictions, he never anticipated that this woman would enter his world,
and even became an attachment in his life that he could not bear to let go.
All the hardships she endured over the years were all bestowed upon her by him.
If it weren't for Lionel taking them in, providing a status for her and her child, he believed their lives
would have been much harder.
With these thoughts, he slowly bent his knees and knelt on the ground.
Wendy looked at him with a touch of surprise.
Raymond was equally astonished.
Who was Holden?
He was the one in charge of Tarragon, the world's most powerful organization who held some absolute
decision-making power within the organization.
Over the years, he had wandered the world, with the top powers from all corners treating him with the
utmost respect. No one dared to take him lightly.
However...
Now that he had actually bent his waist, and even knelt down. How could they not be surprised?
“Holden, you...”
Before Wendy could finish speaking, Holden turned his head towards her. He gave her a smile, and
then reached out to tightly hold her hand.
After a few seconds of silence, he looked up at Raymond, who had already stood up, and said with a
torn voice, “Seven years ago, I was also forced to scheme against the Hoffman family out of
helplessness.”
“The control of Zaewora has now been rightfully returned to the Hoffman family. As a member of
Tarragon, I wish to maintain a lasting friendship with your noble family. I hope Mr. Hoffman will accept
this.”
Raymond's eyes gradually lost their surprise, his gaze falling on the intertwined fingers of the two. His
expression was indescribable.
After a silence that lasted a good two or three minutes, he finally said in a chilling tone, “The position of
the head of the Hoffman family has now been handed over to Archie.
“If Mr. Lewitt is interested in a collaboration, you can discuss it with Archie. Of course, when it comes to
my daughter's marriage, I still have the right to make the final decision.
“She has endured so much hardship over the years. This debt can't simply be wiped away with a few
words.
“You want to marry her? Sure, but only after you've experienced everything she's been through over
the years.”
Um...
Raymond was indeed a tough nut to crack.
Without thinking, Wendy blurted out, “Daddy, he's in a position of power now. How can he possibly go
through what I've been through?
“This demand of yours is a bit too unreasonable, don't you think? Besides, it's me who's getting
married, not you, so you...”
Before she could finish speaking, Holden quickly reached out and grabbed her.
Clearly, his father-in-law was quite irate. If she stirred things up any further, his days would likely
become even more difficult.
“I cannot change or undo what Wends has been through. Knowing her ordeal, I feel even more
distressed than you do.
“If you are upset with me, I am willing to accept any punishment. All I ask is for a chance to take care of
her and make up for her losses.”
Raymond wore a somber expression, falling into silence.
At that moment, Juliana rushed in from outside. She was full of excitement, and said to Wendy,
“Wendy, you're finally home.”
Then she turned to her father and said, “Daddy, Wendy's complexion is rosy, and her eyes and brows
gentle. She looks like she has been dearly loved.
“I've seen such an expression on my mother before, which means she's very happy now.
“I admit that what she has gone through is heartbreaking. But it's precisely because of this that you
should give Holden a chance to make amends.
“Besides, they have a child. Can you really bear to tear them apart?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly gave Sebastian a meaningful glance.
The little one grumbled a bit, then said quite rudely, “Old man, if you dare to separate my mom and
dad, I'll turn the Hoffman family upside down.”
Um...
His tone was quite casual.
He sounded very much like Zayron.
However, Raymond was visibly moved. His tense face gradually relaxed. After giving the boy a glance,
he said in a cold voice, “You are quite promising, but just a bit wild.”
After hearing this, Holden quickly responded, “I will strive to teach him well in the future, aiming to
cultivate an outstanding next generation for the Hoffman family.”
Raymond's gaze fell upon him. After staring at him for a moment, he said nothing and walked straight
towards the staircase.
Holden was somewhat bewildered.
What do you mean by this, my dear father-in-law?
Juliana said with a cheerful smile, “Holden, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and catch up with Dad.
He wants to have a private chat with you.”
...
After the father-in-law and son-in-law left, Juliana hurriedly helped Wendy and her child up.
“Wendy, don't worry. That old man must be overjoyed with such an outstanding son-in-law.”
“He's already up in years. Don’t you think he's allowed to be a little bit tsundere?”
Wendy couldn't help but laugh, her gaze falling on her younger sister's matured and pretty face. She
teased, “Dad must be quite pleased with Zeke too, right?
“Well, the head of the world's foremost medical family, a person of high rank and great power, is an
excellent match for any prestigious family. He is definitely a real catch.”
“Wendy...” Juliana stomped her foot hard, her cheeks instantly turning crimson.
At that moment, a teasing voice echoed from the doorway.
“Well, my brother is so outstanding that not only does your old man chuckle in secret, even your sister
must be waking up laughing from her dreams.”
The sisters turned around in unison, only to see Artemis, Bailey, and Zeke walking in from outside. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Each one of them was a giant among men. As they entered, the heads of the housekeepers in the
room dropped even lower.
Juliana asked somewhat awkwardly, “Master, how come you're here?”
Bailey walked over, and embracing Wendy first before she ruffled Sebastian's hair. Finally, she said to
Juliana, “Don't call me Master anymore.
“Please ask your father to come down later. I want to dissolve our master-disciple relationship in front
of him.”
“Why, why is this happening?”
Bailey pinched her cheek, teasingly said, “Because we're going to be sisters-in-law in the future.”
“It wouldn't make sense for me to call you sister-in-law, and you to call me master, would it? Wouldn't
that just mix up our roles?”
Juliana's face suddenly turned red.
Bailey burst into hearty laughter, then playfully pushed his young apprentice into his elder brother's
arms.
Zeke was a man, so had thick-skinned and was bolder. With a beauty in his arms, he didn't hesitate to
wrap his arms around her waist.
“How are you feeling? Is there any discomfort anywhere?”
“I'm, I'm okay.”
Wendy quickly interjected, “We've been on a plane for twenty over hours, and we're tired. I'll take
Sebastian to rest first. You guys carry on chatting.”
Bailey took Artemis' hand and said, “We're off to perform surgery on Huntley. You guys carry on with
your chat.”
...
Juliana struggled to break free from Zeke's embrace but to no avail, her body starting to tremble
slightly.
Zeke couldn't help but laugh. “Am I some kind of terrifying beast? Is it necessary to tremble at the sight
of me?”
