Chapter 321 Hypocrisy

Colin's cruelty was engraved in his bones.

His tough living environment nourished his ruthlessness since his childhood.

Hearing what Colin said, Hank reached for the cigarette on the coffee table, and his face darkened.

Colin fished out a lighter from his pocket. He fiddled with it and then flung it into Hank's arms.

Hank caught it and looked down to light his cigarette but failed.

Hank's hand holding the lighter did not shake, while every time he rolled the metal spark down, he missed it.

Four or five times later, Hank clenched his teeth and clutched the lighter without moving.

Colin looked sideways at Hank and stretched out his hand, saying, "Allow me."

With that, Colin snatched the lighter from Hank's hand and lit the cigarette in Hank's mouth. "Hank, birds of different feathers do not flock together," said Colin.

Hank took a puff of the cigarette and asked, "Do you know why Grandpa has been siding with my mother?"

Colin put the lighter back into his pocket before sitting down again. "It doesn't tickle my fancy," said he coldly.

Hank took the cigarette off the corner of his mouth. Regardless of what Colin said, Hank continued, "Apart from the reason that she has done a lot of lousy things for Grandpa, it's because of my maternal grandpa."

Colin was not interested in what Hank said. He looked down and caught sight of the bells on his wrist.

During the day, the bells were bound by the cuff, so they could not make any sound.

At the moment, even a slight move of his wrist would make the bells jingle.

Receiving no reply from Colin, Hank paused for a while before saying, "Colin, my mother is also pathetic." Colin finally reacted to Hank's words and looked at him lazily. "What does it have to do with me?" asked Colin. Hank lost his tongue.

Just because she was pathetic, she could hurt others unscrupulously?

Just because she was pathetic, she didn't have to pay the price for what she had done evilly?

If that was the case, everyone might as well be someone pathetic.

Anyway, in the name of being pathetic, people could just discard their dignity and didn't tell right from wrong.

At this point, there was no need for them to continue the conversation.

Colin stood up and slowly rolled down his cuffs. He then stated with mockery and indifference, "Hank, you're neither sheerly kind nor bad enough." Hank asked instead, "What about you?"

Colin broke into a smile and looked at him, uttering, "I never said I was a nice person."

Hank had been suppressed by Colin in all respects tonight. At that moment, he suddenly wanted to retort as he asked, "Are you bad enough?"

Colin smiled faintly and said, "You bet. Did you see me be kind to you guys?"

Hank was rendered speechless.

With that, Colin strode away.

Hank hastily stood up. He looked at Colin who was leaving and uttered, "Colin, could you please spare my mother's life? I'd like to atone for my mother's fault." Colin came to a halt and ridiculed, "That's beyond your capability."

When Colin returned to the bedroom while tugging his tie, Emmett was still wrapped in a blanket and sitting on the couch.

The two guys' gazes met, and Colin slightly arched his brows.

Emmett lifted the blanket over his neck and looked at Colin in silence.

Colin walked into the room, calmly closed the door, and looked towards Faye in confusion as he uttered, "The toy boy?"

Colin's words pissed Emmett off. Before Faye said anything, Emmett jumped to his feet, huffing, "You're a fucking toy boy!"

Colin glanced sideways at Emmett and uttered, "You're not smart as Lance is."

Emmett was struck dumb. After a while, he looked pitifully towards Faye and asked, "Faye, did you tell him about my brother's identity?" Faye opened her mouth, "No, he guessed it."

Emmett said, "That's rock!"

In the living room.

Hank remained seated on the couch for another few minutes before going upstairs.

Just when he was about to turn the doorknob of his room, Helen, who lived next door, opened her door and walked out.

Hearing the noise, Hank turned his head and asked with a frown, "Why are you still up?"

Helen said nervously, "Hank, I heard your conversation just now."

Hank met Helen's eyes with mixed feelings.

Helen was choked with emotions as she uttered, "Hank, it's not only the dispute of the position as the president of Farrell Media between you and Colin these years, right? What on earth did Mom and Grandpa do to Colin and Faye before?"

It was difficult for Hank to say out the sins of the older generation.

Helen walked up to Hank and cried. "I remember when I was a child, Grandpa wanted to send Colin to an executive as his godson. However, that man was reported to have pedophilia and was arrested because of abusing children..."

Before Helen finished, Hank covered her mouth and uttered, "Stop. That guy had been arrested. Also, Colin wasn't sent to him, was he?"

Helen trembled and could not believe that her guesses were right.

She supposed that the fight openly or secretly between her brother and Colin all these years was only for the family property.

It was more than common to see the fight over family property in wealthy and powerful families.

Nonetheless, never in her wildest dreams did she expect that fighting for the family property was just a fig leaf for the Farrells. Beneath that, it was their avarice and cruelty as well as hypocrisy.
