"Okay, what does it look like to be blocked at the door?"

Sure enough, old man Wilson got out of the car. His serious expression swept over Eric, and there was indeed a trace of heartache emerging in his eyes.

Obviously, this child was the most elegant gentleman around him, but now he was turned into this state, and the shoes on his feet were still oozing blood.

It would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for his children over the years, especially since Eric was the only one who stayed by his side. Compared to those elite educations, he paid more attention to the companionship between Eric and him. Therefore, when he saw the child fall into such a situation, old man Wilson couldn't bear it.

"Grandpa, I..."

Eric looked at old man Wilson standing in front of him and didn't say much. Instead, he expressed his grievance with an expression that seemed to want to say something but couldn't.

As a subordinate, Eric knew exactly how to please Mr. Wilson. He loved the feeling of having everything under control. If Eric questioned him or showed any sign of resistance, Mr. Wilson would turn around and leave without hesitation.

But as long as he showed weakness, as long as he acted embarrassed in front of him, old man Wilson would definitely be tied down by the so-called family affection between them.

"Go call the family doctor and have Master Eric's foot checked. It would be best if there were no scars left."

After old man Wilson gave the order, the guards around him quickly took action. They were now feeling lucky that they had not completely obeyed the orders of Andy and Anna and tried to kill Eric.

Anna looked at Mr. Wilson's actions and stomped her feet in anger.

But even if she did this, Mr. Wilson did not scold him.

The gap between them is obvious.

Originally, Eric was complacent and thought that he was the most important person around Mr. Wilson. But it was not until now that he really saw clearly that compared with blood relationship, those were nothing. He was just a puppy who could be summoned and dismissed at will, just to kill time.

"Grandpa, do you know what Eric did?"

Anne and Anna have not yet told the old man about Eric's family's targeting of Yu Zhi. Now, they feel that if they don't tell him, Eric will soon take over.

"Yes, Grandpa, I should be honest with you about this matter. I just found out what happened recently because of these unprovoked attacks."

Eric cleared himself clearly with just this one sentence. He had already discussed this with the old lady before leaving home.

They had once plotted against Yu Zhi, a fact that could not be explained. So the old lady asked him to put all the blame on Robert, sacrificing him to save their entire family, and this deal was worthwhile.

As Mr. Wilson listened to the twists and turns in their words, he immediately thought of Eric's current miserable state, which was probably caused by the joint efforts of Andy and Anna.

Andy and Anna were never the type to act without cause. They had disliked Eric before, but they had never done anything wrong. For them to kill him now, something must have happened in their family that had infuriated them.

"Anna, you tell me about this."

When encountering something like this, Mr. Wilson would definitely not listen to Eric's defense at the first time, so he gave the right to speak to Anna.

Eric clenched his fists even tighter when he saw such a biased move. It could be said that everything Mr. Wilson did now was pouring fuel on his fragile heart, making him turn even darker.

"I found out before that Yu Zhi had suffered some attacks in China, and the mastermind behind it was Eric's family. That's why I took crazy revenge on them. No one can harm the Wilson family."

After hearing this, Mr. Wilson's eyes suddenly turned cold, and there was undisguised indifference in his eyes when he looked at Eric.

"Grandpa, do you believe that I would do such a thing?"

Eric did not take the initiative to explain himself, but instead asked in a very sad tone.

"I grew up by your side, and naturally know the importance of getting along well with your brothers and sisters. I was so happy to hear the news about Yu Zhi that I couldn't bear to hurt him."

These words made old man Wilson a little shaken. After all, he had watched Eric grow up since he was a child, and he felt that he could still control the boy's temperament and character.

"After this incident happened, my grandmother was also very angry. She conducted a thorough investigation at home and found out that it was my second uncle Donald who did it."

Eric lowered his head, his face full of struggle.

"Although I didn't do this, it's because of me that my second uncle knew about Yu Zhi's existence. The Wilson family's help to us over the years has blinded him to greed, leading him to commit such a catastrophic act."

Hearing this, Anna wanted to refute, but from the results of their investigation, the account from which the money was transferred was indeed Donald's, and his phone number was closely connected with China. It would be reasonable to say that all this was done by Donald alone.

But Anna never believed that Eric was a pure and innocent little white rabbit.

After all, as long as something happens to Yu Zhi, the biggest beneficiary in this matter is Eric, and the only person who poses a threat to Yu Zhi's appearance is also Eric.

“Grandpa, everything my second uncle did was to maintain my position in the Wilson family. But I know that your care and love for me do not require this kind of approach to maintain.”

Eric secretly praised Mr. Wilson with every word he said, and his approach was neither abrupt nor annoying.

Old man Wilson was also vaguely moved by Eric's words.

But now, in his heart, no one is more important than Yu Zhi. Even if there is potential danger, he doesn't want Yu Zhi to encounter it. That child has suffered too much.

"I find it hard to believe your story, Eric."

As soon as these words came out, Andy and Anna breathed a sigh of relief and put their hearts at ease. They were so scared that just because of these few words, Mr. Wilson agreed to let Eric return to the manor.

"I know I came here just to talk to you again and ask for your forgiveness. I don't ask for anything more."

Eric did not feel sorry that he failed to impress Mr. Wilson this time. Instead, he had left an anchor point in Mr. Wilson's heart, and this anchor point only needed an opportunity to be triggered.

"You don't need to call the family doctor to treat me. I'll take my leave now."

Eric dragged his aching feet and moved out of the manor step by step.

The Wilson family's manor is an independent mountain, and it takes at least four or five hours to walk from the mountain to the foot of the mountain.

Mr. Wilson was already shaken, and seeing Eric's miserable state, he felt sorry for him.

"Stay here tonight. I'll send a driver to take you back tomorrow."

Old man Wilson suddenly relaxed, and Andy and Anna looked at each other. This was not a good sign.

"Thank you."

Eric turned around, tears streaming down his face, and fell to the ground the moment he finished speaking.

Now the manor was in chaos.

The family doctor stayed by Eric's bed and examined him carefully. Old man Wilson stood beside him with a cane and a serious expression.

"Old man, he's suffering from severe malnutrition. After traveling for a long time, his physical strength is really not enough, so he fainted."

The old man looked at the thin and frail figure on the bed and sighed slightly.

He and Eric were not as strict as they were with their own youngster, nor did they expect him to achieve great things. They just raised him like an ordinary family would raise a noble son.

Therefore, Eric does not have a very strong physique or very smart talents.

Andy and Anna were personally trained by the old man, and their methods were considered outstanding in the whole of Europe. Being targeted by them personally, the end was nothing short of tragic.

It seems like a lot of things happened during the time he was away from Europe.

Andy and Anna stayed beside the old man, looking at the person on the hospital bed, their hearts filled with speechlessness.

Although they took away most of Eric's family's property, they were not to the point where they had no food to eat.

Besides, even if there is really no food to eat, there are soup kitchens nearby. They only provide some dry bread and milk, which is not difficult to eat.

Isn't it just to make old man Wilson feel sorry for him to make himself look so pitiful?

"Try to take care of his health. Anna, come with me."

Old man Wilson left with a cane. Anna sighed and followed him closely.

When they reached the study, Mr. Wilson signaled Anna to close the study door.

"Have you investigated the things that the Eric family did and whether they are related to him?"

As soon as Mr. Wilson asked the question, Ana's face suddenly became a little ugly.

"No."

"So you just convicted him based on groundless suspicion, didn't you?"

Anna really wanted to refute that this was not true, but she knew that if she said this, the old man would definitely ask her to produce evidence, but she currently had no information about this.

"Grandpa, their entire family is now serving Eric alone. It goes without saying that this matter must be related to him."

After saying this, Anna felt a little regretful.

How could the old man not know these things? His control over human nature was not something that the younger generation could comment on.

But why would Mr. Wilson do this when he knew all this?

Anna was a little confused.

“Anna, do you think he can really do all the work so well and put all the blame on Donald?”

Old man Wilson was quite disappointed with his son.

Among the younger generation, Louis is the only one he can trust completely, as the rest of these young people always have their own shortcomings in doing things.

"Grandpa, do you mean to catch him? But things don't have to be that complicated. As long as we are sure of this, we don't need to explore the true outcome."

"Anna, you don't even want results when you do things, what else do you want?"

The old man's words made Anna lower her head completely.

The investigation and its results are not important at all. The old man was just expressing his opinions and views on her behavior this time.

Anna did not do the whole thing to perfection, but instead fell into this vicious circle that could not prove herself, which shows that she made a serious mistake.

"Anna, you've stayed in the ivory tower for too long. You have to remember that you are a powerful Alpha. You should bring endless benefits to the family, not endless troubles."

Anna lowered her head and nodded.

She was indeed blinded by anger at the time, so she did such an irrational thing.

But the Wilson family does not need an impulsive leader, but needs someone who can remain calm and composed at all times.

"The livestock industry in Australia has been in a lot of trouble recently. I was going to hand it over to Louis, but now you're the one to take care of it."

Anna said yes obediently and left the study.
