The yacht briefly returned to a strange sort of calm, a calm where only Ryan was still suffering.

He endured the pain while watching Ted calmly remove the bullet and stop the bleeding, and the hatred in his heart grew stronger.

Ryan thought, ‘Why could he be so calm seeing me injured? Is he secretly laughing at me? Does seeing me in such a miserable state please him?”

The more his body hurt, the more those poisonous thoughts gnawed at him. And the colder his eyes grew when he looked at Ted.

Ted was doing the final disinfecting and bandaging when he felt that venomous stare burning into him. He gave a bitter smile.

He said, “If you still want to be the next head of the Wilson family, then put away your petty grudges. Being jealous of me is pointless. I told you before. I have no interest in being the head of this family.”

Ryan remained silent, but it was clear he hadn’t listened to Ted.

He thought, ‘Not interested? Are you still trying to fool me like I’m a three–year–old? Not interested? Then why did you try so hard to get close to Frank from the medical school at Shoneport University?‘

‘Not interested? Then why do you always show off your abilities in front of Grandpa? Why would you secretly investigate the transactions between the family company and the underground lab? Why would you let me threaten you without putting up a fight?‘

Ryan had long since stopped believing anything Ted said. He had already proven himself to their grandfather and won the recognition of the family.

As long as he was alive, Ted would never have a chance to rise up.

Ted tied a neat little butterfly knot to finish the bandage, didn’t even spare his stubborn brother another glance, packed up the medical kit, and stood to leave.

Noah and Ted’s mother, Sienna, rushed to Henry’s side. They helped Henry to Ryan, fussing over him and asking how he was.

Watching the heartwarming scene of the family of four, Ted didn’t even bat an eye.

It was always like this. Whenever it came to Ryan, no matter how big or small the issue, everyone was so eager to care, so quick to dote on him.

He thought, ‘Is this what Ryan had bragged about before? The child who cries gets the candy?‘

Ted shook his head to himself. It didn’t have anything to do with him. He was now a good–for–nothing abandoned by his family.

He only hoped that once the Wilson family got everything they wanted, they would let him leave. He was fine with going abroad. He had truly had enough of this family.

If it weren’t for a few friends by his side, Ted might have already secretly fled abroad.

“Do you still have any hope left for the Wilson family?” At some point, Frank had walked up beside him. Seeing the loneliness and helplessness in his eyes, Frank couldn’t quite harden his heart.

He’d been friends with Ted for years, and he knew this man’s personality well enough.

Ted turned his head. “You’re not angry with me?”

Frank glared at him. “How could I not be angry? Do you even realize how dangerous tonight was? And you sold me out for those worthless family members of yours. If you were me, wouldn’t you be angry?”

Ted fell silent, guilt deepening in his eyes.

If their roles had been reversed, he would have been even more furious.

Which was why, when they first arrived at the dock, Ted hadn’t dared go out to greet Frank and the others. He had been too ashamed.

“But what can I do? You’re my friend, after all!” Frank spread his hands with a harmless smile.

But Connor had told him that even if Ted hadn’t called, Ashton and his wife would have come to the seaside tonight anyway.

The phone call from Ted was just Ashton and his team’s way of pushing things along.

It was also a chance for Ted to see his family’s true, unscrupulous colors.

Fortunately, it worked out quite well.

The look on Ted’s face was one of complete disappointment in his family.

Then, Connor sent him over to rub salt in Ted’s wounds, hoping to sever any lingering attachment he had to his family.

Frank secretly smiled. It seemed the outcome was quite good.

Suddenly, Henry’s angry voice rang out. “Ashton, what is the meaning of this? Our family invited you with good intentions. Hurting my young grandson wasn’t enough? Do you really intend for everyone on this ship to die?”

Frank and Ted turned around and saw Ryan, who had just stopped bleeding, clutched in Connor’s hand like a chick, his face deathly pale.

Ted instinctively started to step forward.

Frank grabbed him. “Hey, don’t do anything stupid. Even if you save your dear brother now, he won’t thank you. He might even think we’re in this together!”

Ted froze mid–step. It was not a possibility, but a certainty.

Chapter 341

Given his brother’s suspicious and arrogant nature, he would definitely see it that way.
