Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 306

After saying those words, he glanced coldly at Mrs. Lawrence, his eyes making her heart turn icy cold.

She understood very well that her husband, who had now come to his senses, resented her for encouraging him to leave Ronaldo abroad for so many years. He also blamed her for always speaking highly of Beverly, leading him to neglect his son.

However...

She couldn't help but clench her fist, mocking herself inwardly: 'If you cared for your son, would I be able to change your mind with a few simple words? The only reason you decided to nurture Beverly was because you didn’t see any hope in your own son. What does that have to do with me? Ha...'

Nevertheless, she dared not voice these thoughts and stood silently, saying nothing.

Just then, there was a noise from outside the door. Mr. Lawrence turned his head and spotted Ronaldo returning. His brow relaxed slightly and he quickly moved to greet him. Seeing his son, smart in a business suit, he let out a small breath of relief. Ronaldo called out to Mr. Lawrence, "Dad."

Mr. Lawrence responded, then asked, "How's the company doing recently?"

Ronaldo replied, "I’ve been working on reversing the company's stock situation, and it's been rather stable recently. It no longer continues to plummet."

This news delighted Mr. Lawrence. He looked at his son, who in his opinion was not inferior in appearance or manner compared to him back in the day, and felt quite satisfied. He smiled and said, "Well done, I was worried that you had never studied business management, and was afraid that you might not be able to handle the CEO's position."

Ronaldo chuckled lightly. He subtly looked at his stepmother standing not far behind his father, her face ashen, her eyes brimming with resentment. He couldn't help but twitch his mouth into a smirk. Then, he said, "Dad, I came today to ask you about something. Did you have anything to do with the matter of Lambert?"

Mr. Lawrence stiffened, and the smile gradually faded from his face. After a while, he nodded slightly, sighed, and said, "Yes, I did it. I may have acted a bit impulsively this time."

Ronaldo's expression changed instantly; his eyes filled with complexity, he said to his father, "Dad, you really made a mess of things. But fortunately, no major mishap occurred."

These words successfully left Mr. Lawrence dumbfounded.

He first paused, followed by a bright light that sprang up in his eyes. He asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Ronaldo glanced at his father, then hesitated for a moment before saying, "Dad, I fear what I'm about to say might anger you."

Mr. Lawrence waved his hand dismissively, "It's okay, go ahead."

Seeing his father genuinely didn't seem to mind, Ronaldo remained silent for a moment before finally speaking, "Actually, it's like this. Do you still remember that I was good friends with Lambert? Although, due to some reasons I had to leave the country, I managed to keep in touch with him over the years. However, I was unaware of the issue with Beverly. Lambert had been hiding it from me and didn't tell me. I only found out when I returned to the country. Upon knowing this, I started acting distant from Lambert, as after all, Beverly is my little sister. Then, when the recent incident happened, I knew you were angry, but Lambert was my friend after all, so I asked a friend to take care of him from the inside.

As for you giving Lambert the drug... I didn't know it was you at that time, so I stopped it..."
