?Chapter 575:
“Shut up. Don’t you dare speak of my mother!” Wesley’s gaze turned cold. “You don’t deserve it.”
Lawrence held his pride in high regard, and being reprimanded by the son he despised struck deep at that pride. He already harbored a deep disdain for Wesley and now wished nothing more than for Wesley to be struck by a car and die. So many lives were lost every day. Why couldn’t Wesley be one of them? That damned brat!
Seething with rage, Lawrence blurted recklessly, “You think your mother was decent? Before we married, she was already with another man. A woman with a dubious past, pretending to be respectable! You son of a bitch!”
Lawrence found it hard to ept that his wife had been involved with someone else long before him. Merely thinking about it filled him with disgust. He even questioned Wesley’s paternity, although DNA tests confirmed Wesley as a legitimate Spencer.
In Lawrence’s eyes, only someone as pure as Zoie deserved the title of his wife. The mention of his mother hit Wesley where it hurt most. Each word Lawrence spoke felt like a needle, stabbing at his nerves.
Wesley looked down, hisshes casting shadows over eyes that concealed the chill within. Though seething with anger, he remained eerily calm, a stark contrast to Lawrence’s frantic outburst. “Are you done with your rant?” Wesley asked coldly.
Lawrence was visibly shaking with rage, his face a mask of disgust. He saw not his son but an enemy before him. Still unsatisfied, he continued, “My biggest regret is marrying your mother and having you! You’re not even in the same league as Theo. The Spencer Group should rightfully be his to lead!”
Wesley’s fist tightened, veins pronounced against his skin, but his expression remained unsettlinglyposed. “Completely worthless,” he retorted sharply, stressing each syble. “Theo will not be returning to the.”
Driven by Lawrence’s insulting remarks about his mother, Wesley decided that Lawrence’s favored son would be doomed to stay in Tauledo indefinitely.
As expected, Lawrence’s anger boiled over. “You wretched child! How dare you challenge me!”
Wesley calmly responded, “You’ll see if I dare.”
In frustration, Lawrenceshed out at a potted nt near the window. The pot crashed to the floor, shattering ss everywhere, the sound echoing loud enough to be heard outside the office. The secretaries exchanged surprised looks.

“Is there a fight happening inside?”
“Wesley wouldn’t actually strike his father, right?”
“Lawrence came here because of Theo, didn’t he?”
“It seems the wealthy also favor their younger children. I thought that was just something in my family back in the vige.”
“Didn’t you hear? Theo’s mother was the other woman who caused Wesley’s mother’s death.”
“Quiet down. No wonder Wesley resents Theo…”
Lawrence had believed his paternal influence could still sway Wesley. However, Wesley was not the man he once was. Watching his father’s meltdown, Wesley realized this moment was a turning point.
“Felix,” Wesley called out.
Felix, who had been waiting by the door, entered without a nce at Lawrence’s antics. “Mr. Spencer, how may I assist?”
