Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 353

353 /658

When Lambert pushed open the door of the study, he saw Old Mr. Stone sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed.

On his coffee table was a teapot that was still steaming, and freshly brewed tea in the cup. The smell was particularly aromatic and there was a hint of soothing tranquility.

Lambert did not say a word.

But he didn't have to say anything because Old Mr. Stone knew he had come in. With his eyes slowly opening, not a trace of emotion could be found in his murky gaze. He gestured for Lambert to take a seat.

Without any hesitation, Lambert sat down.

This scene was reminiscent of when Lambert had last visited the Stone family when he had expressed to Ariana his intentions of completely severing ties with the Stone family, and assured them he would not withdraw the lawsuit.

Looking back now…

It seemed as if a lot of time had passed.

A faint touch of distracted nostalgia flashed in Old Mr. Stone's eyes. When he regained his senses, his eyes were full of muted silence.

Lambert still did not speak. He was waiting for Old Mr. Stone to break the silence.

And, after about three to four minutes of silence, Old Mr. Stone slowly said, "I'm very pleased that you have agreed to return to the Stone family." There was indeed joy. Lambert's actions indicated that he agreed to reclaim his status. And what’s more, he would contend for the position of family head.

Lambert gave him a faint glance but said nothing.

It seemed that the actions of the eldest and second families during this period had upset him.

He returned this time because of Arnold and Finley. He had underestimated the tactics of his two uncles and cousins. During this time, the first and second families might have been genuinely provoked by the shares issue and began to target Lambert recklessly. They had an unspoken agreement to get rid of the third family first, and then they would compete fairly against each other.

But was it that easy to get rid of Lambert?

In fact, if only the eldest and the second family were making things difficult in other aspects, it would have been acceptable. But their greatest fault was in laying their hands on Ariana. Recalling the previous incident where, if not for his interception, Ariana could have been hit by a car, he radiated an uncontrollable coldness.

He thought to himself. Their actions were ultimately because of the Stone family.

Previously, Lambert didn’t harbor any significant desires toward the Stone family. After all, he didn't think his Lamari Group would be inferior to the Stone Group in the future. However, he had truly taken an interest in the Stone family now. Since they were willing to even commit murder to possess the Stone family, then he would make sure their wish would always be unfulfilled -

To acquire the Stone family, maybe they could try in their next life. He would make the two families pay.

Killing was not something he would do.

However, he did have his own methods of making life worse than death.

Old Mr. Stone glanced at Lambert. His expression was somewhat solemn with an underlying emotion that even he himself couldn't understand. After a while, he finally said, “I am aware of this incident. Lambert, the eldest and second family are your uncles and brothers after all. You have my permission to retaliate and do what you think is necessary. But, I don’t want any major scandals or, violence.” He just wanted a capable successor for the Stone family, not to get rid of his other descendants after appointing a successor.

Although he never favored any of his sons and grandsons, especially the worthless eldest grandson.

But they were his bloodline after all. He could not be that cruel.
