Chapter 788: Chapter 792: The Power of Love?
“I understand,” Fang Lutong said bitterly, “It’s not a gift or a handout, but a return and a compensation. What originally belonged to the Si Family, I return to Ah Yao. What originally belonged to the Fang Family, I give to Ah Yao, as compensation from me as a father to Ah Yao.”
“Dad!” Fang Yixian finally lost his temper, his voice filled with urgency and anger, “Don’t forget, I am also your son! Your son with your legal wife! I am the rightful heir to the Fang Family!”
Returning everything of the Si Family to Fang Yao, he had nothing to say.
But giving all of the Fang Family also to Fang Yao, where did that leave him?
“Before, wasn’t Ah Yao also my son, who had no inheritance rights?” Fang Lutong looked at him, strangely calm, “If your mother didn’t scheme and frame me, Ah Yao would be my son with my legal wife and the rightful heir to the Fang Family. Everything of the Fang family should have been inherited by him”.
Fang Yixian stared blankly at Fang Lutong as if not recognizing him, he stepped back a few steps.
Is this the so-called power of love?
Before, his father clearly despised Fang Yao, even wishing that he was dead.
But now, knowing that Fang Yao is his and Siqi’s son, and that Siqi never betrayed him, Fang Yao suddenly became the apple of his father’s eye.
And him, his father raised him for over twenty years, treated him with fatherly love. Just because his mother is not the woman his father loves, his father doesn’t love him anymore, is that it?
He closed his eyes in pain, finding it hurt even to breathe.
He clenched his fists tightly, trying hard to calm himself down.
Only after a long time, he opened his eyes and gently asked Fang Lutong, “Dad, are you intending to alienate everyone? No matter how you compensate Ah Yao and Mi Sheng now, they will not recognize you as their father. Do you also want to hurt me and Mingzhu, so that when you are old, you will be alone?”
“What’s wrong with being alone?” Fang Lutong gave a wry smile, “Isn’t being alone the fate I deserve for being as stupid as a pig? And you, I raised you to this age, took so much pains to nurture you, loved you for over twenty years, just because I leave my property to your younger brother, you want to cut ties with me, then is there any importance whether I recognize a son like you?”
Fang Yixian opened his mouth, but had no words to say.
Fang Lutong looked at him, his face cold. “Now, I am in charge of the Fang Family, all the shares are in my hands, it’s my private property. No law stipulates that my private property must be equally distributed to all my children. Even if I want to give it to a beggar, or it all, it’s my freedom, and it has nothing to do with you as my son.”
Fang Yixian opened his mouth.
He wanted to say, he cares about not just the property, but also fatherly love.
Why, despite his outstanding merits, and their deep father-son bond for over twenty years, after learning that Fang Yao is also his biological son, he, as the elder son, no longer hold any place in his father’s heart?
But with the words on the tip of his tongue, he swallowed them back.
What his dad said was not wrong.
The Fang Group is his dad’s, whoever his dad wants to give it to is his business.
His father has loved and nurtured him wholeheartedly for over twenty years, if he considered this father as non-existent just because his father wouldn’t give him the right of inheritance, then he is the one who is unfilial.
Now his father’s heart is entirely focused on Fang Yao, anything he could say would be futile.
He bit back his grievances and pain, stepped forward, and took Fang Lutong’s hand once again. “Dad, you’re right, I was wrong. Your property, you give it to whoever you want to, it’s none of my business. Let’s go, I’ll accompany you to take care of the paperwork.”
