This sentence, like a knife, stabbed Martha in the chest! Hendrix waved his hand lightly and said, “Martha, please sit down.” The door was slammed shut. The figures of the siblings disappeared in front of Hendrix and his daughter, Martha, who stood there, feeling uncomfortable, staring in the direction of the door. Her eyes were a little red.
Hendrix sighed and said, “Martha, Quentin doesn’t know the truth now, so his attitude towards us is understandable. After all, in his eyes, we are the murderers of their father. With just a few words, he will never easily believe us. But all these misunderstandings will be resolved in the future.”
Martha gritted her teeth and said, “What does it have to do with me whether these misunderstandings are resolved or not? I don’t care if he trusts us!” She sat down angrily.
Quentin’s words, “Are you worthy?” really hurt her heart. Hendrix sighed and said, “It doesn’t matter. I just hope that this time, The Bradshaw family can escape a disaster. Otherwise, it may not be just bankruptcy.” His eyes were full of worry. Making a move against the Holland family was a big mistake that the Bradshaw family made.
His brother was indeed shortsighted. But since it was a mistake made by the Bradshaw family, there was nothing more to say. He only hoped that Quentin could spare the Bradshaw family members’ lives. But do they have the right to ask Quentin for this now?
Martha said, “Dad, aren’t you overthinking it? Even if they take over the Zeustimes Group, what does it matter? After the two-month battle, the Zeustimes Group is just an empty shell. Although it looks large in size, how could it threaten the Bradshaw family? If his parents were still alive… maybe there would be a chance for them to get their revenge. But now, what ability does Quentin have!”
Martha gritted her teeth. Hendrix sighed, leaned back on the chair cushion with half-closed eyes, and slowly exhaled, “Martha, you are still too young. I said the threat comes from Quentin, not from the Zeustimes Group.”
“It’s different.”
Martha was slightly stunned, then somewhat disdainful, “Dad, you are worrying too much. Quentin has only the Zeustimes Group as well as The Bradshaw family and the Han family can compete. What capital does he have?”
Martha continued, “I don’t look down on him, but that’s the reality. Since he is so arrogant in front of us, I want to see what he can do to turn things around!”
Being looked down upon by Quentin made Martha very unhappy! She didn’t do anything wrong, so why did he treat her like that? Can’t he have a slightly better attitude?
Hendrix shook his head and smiled, “If his biggest reliance is the Zeustimes Group, then how did he regain control from Ari? And how was the Hill family destroyed?”
Martha paused again and said, “That’s because the Hill family offended Mr. Governor…”
“The Hill family offended Charlotte,” Hendrix calmly interjected, “the woman who bore Quentin a son and a daughter, and who is renowned alongside you, Stresall, for her beauty.”
Upon hearing Charlotte’s name, Martha’s expression darkened slightly.
“That’s merely a coincidence…”
“Very well, let’s consider it a coincidence for now,” Hendrix continued, “How was the Duncan family wiped out?”
“The head of the Duncan family died, the main lineage was slaughtered, and shortly after, the new head of the Duncan family succeeded. But within a mere ten days, both father and son met their demise…”
Martha shook her head, “As for the specific reasons, I really don’t know.”
