Chapter 745 Unsightly Scene
Irked by the others’ criticism, Samuel unbuttoned his cufflinks, exposing his forearms.
Scanning everyone with a hint of coldness in his eyes, he scoffed, “Since when has the Bowers family started playing such underhanded tactics? There isn’t any concrete evidence to convict Natalie of poisoning my grandpa, and you’re already blowing things out of proportion. It only makes me wonder. Is it because you can’t wait to seek justice for my grandpa or because you want to pull me down for your own sake?”
In a split second, everyone’s face fell.
Reuben’s face turned grim instantaneously.
Seconds later, Samuel added casually, “Reuben Bowers, as the second elder’s eldest son, you’re seemingly a lot older than me. Thus, you should have a clearer insight into everything than I do. Don’t you know that the age factor is not the key to becoming the patriarch of a family?”
Blowing his gasket, Reuben snarled, “What do you mean? How could you humiliate me?”
“Ah! It seems you can hardly wait to be the patriarch of the Bowers family,” Samuel sneered.
Reuben blushed crimson and growled in exasperation, “How could you slander me? I’ve never said so!”
“Reuben Bowers, how could you have the gut to stir up turmoil by telling cock-and-bull stories! From today onwards, you’re officially expelled from the Bowers family and should be having no truck with all of us here in the future. In other words, you’ll lose everything!” Samuel snickered as a glint of disdain flickered in his eyes.
His last few words sent Reuben into an instant tizzy, and the latter’s face turned ashen.
Reuben gritted his teeth and bellowed, “Samuel Bowers, who do you think you are? What right do you have to do that? What do you mean by stirring up turmoil by telling cock-and-bull stories? You’re currently being manipulated by a woman and placing the whole family in deep waters! What misdoing did I commit? I was only exposing your shameful deed!”
Throwing Reuben a glance, Samuel replied placidly, “I’m the patriarch of the Bowers family. Who’re you then?”
In a blink of an eye, Reuben’s pupils constricted. Unwilling to admit defeat, he put up a brave front. “Everyone, did you see that? I’m being kicked out of the Bowers family just because I’ve made a truthful statement. Mark my words. It’s only a matter of time before all of you have the same fate as me!”
At the same time, those who took Reuben’s side stepped forward one by one.
“Regardless of anything, Reuben is still our second elder’s eldest son, and he has been contributing to the Bowers family all this while. How could he be punished so severely for being truthful? It’s inhumane!”
“Samuel tends to be swayed by emotion and act impulsively. If he continues to be the patriarch of the Bowers family, we’ll face the same fate as Reuben!”
“I agree with you! We must do something about it!”
Shooting Reuben’s lackeys a glance, Samuel arched his brows and snapped, “Fine. Since you’re so faithful to him, you can leave together with him. After all, the Bowers family has been kind enough to all the good-for-nothings all these years. I’ll grab this golden opportunity to eradicate all the rotten apples.”
Next, he turned to instruct Billy who was standing beside him, “Billy, let everyone take a look at what Reuben Bowers and the others have done.”
Without hesitation, the latter whipped out his phone. Shortly after, the message notification tone of everyone’s phones sounded concurrently.
Everyone unlocked their phone screens instinctively and was immediately overwhelmed by the unsightly scenes in the video clips.
In the first video clip, Reuben was flirting frivolously with a few scantily dressed women in a nightclub. Later, he tossed piles of cash notes to them while signing the copies of contracts handed over to him by his client. Everyone could not help but grimace at the repulsive waves of laughter in the video.
Soon, everyone received the second video clip, then the third one, and the fourth one.
Those who spoke up for Reuben a while ago showed up one by one in the video clips. Most of them were involved in tax evasion and led extravagant lifestyles. Obviously, none of the video clips were fabricated, so there was no way they could deny their misdoings.
Subsequently, everyone present gasped in sheer disbelief.
Even Reuben and his lackeys were nonplussed. Undeniably, all these video clips are real! Even so, we’ve always been extra careful and didn’t leave any trace behind us. So how did someone take the videos? How was it possible for Samuel Bowers to obtain them?
