<strong>Chapter 1476: 1476. Cannot let him marry rke Ainley</strong>


    “I never had an issue with you paving the way for your lover and illegitimate child, but you shouldn’t overestimate yourself and try to take advantage of me. Those with too much ambition who try to swallow what isn’t theirs often end up choking.”


    “You…”


    William Hall was infuriated by Harry Hall’s arrogant demeanor.


    This kid bore too much resemnce to the old man.


    When the old man was alive, he didn’t have the guts to oppose him. Now that he’s dead, Harry, his son, constantly rides over him, making him recall the days he was under the old man’s control.


    Even though Harry hadn’t worked at the Hall n in recent years, he had a tight grip on it, acting calmly and confidently, making William Hall feel like a constant threat.


    That’s why he couldn’t resist suppressing him time and again, but he never seeded.


    Just as Harry was about to leave, William suddenlyughed and said,


    “Aren’t you curious at all about who instructed that lunatic back then?”


    Harry paused his steps, not because he was interested in this so-called instigator, but he cut to the chase:


    “Are you suggesting it was rke Ainley?”


    William was taken aback, not expecting Harry to bluntly bring up rke Ainley.


    Seeing William’s surprised expression, Harry said,


    “Are you worried that I’m in a hurry to forge an alliance with the Ainley n?”


    His eyes were filled with undisguised mockery. “Rest assured, what belongs to me, I will take back with my own hands, no need for anyone else’s help.”


    Williamposed himself, and though he was no longer as angry as before, he still couldn’t help but ask,


    “You don’t believe me? Don’t think that Helen Melendy’s ident was rke Ainley’s doing?”


    Harry didn’t want to discuss this with William, he responded impatiently,


    “Whether Helen’s incident was human-caused or an ident, I will investigate it myself. I don’t need to hear it from you. However, as for the hitman you sent to kill my fiancée, did you pay him enough to keep quiet?”


    His gaze locked onto William’s face, the mocking smile in his eyes growing more intense.


    William’s eyes flickered imperceptibly upon hearing this, but it was so brief that it was nearly imperceptible.


    He maintained aposed appearance, revealing no hint of anomaly, watched Harry, and raised an eyebrow, saying,


    “Do you think it was I who sent the hitman after your fiancée?”


    He faced Harry’s seemingly mocking gaze withplete openness, without a hint of avoidance.


    Harry wasn’t in the mood to chat idly with him; though the hitman had been detained, he steadfastly refused to reveal the mastermind behind it.


    If someone truly wanted to investigate him, it’s not like nothing could be uncovered, but Harry had been too busytely to look into that hitman, and with the police already investigating, he couldn’t just interfere.


    He returned William’s smile in kind. “Whether it was you or not, when I find the time to thoroughly investigate, I’ll know. I just wonder if by then, the evidence I hand over will just be icing on the cake?”


    William’s face darkened slightly as he clearly heard the implications in Harry’s words.


    As Harry prepared to leave again, he left with a remark, “Don’t take Adam for a fool. If you dare touch his wife, he’ll make sure you suffer so bad you’ll never recover.”
