It Was Actually a Dog

"Outrageous!"

Old Master Sterling was furious beyond endurance, glaring through gritted teeth at the man in front of him. "Go get Thomas Sterling out here right now!"

Of course the guard wasn't about to call Thomas Sterling out, unless he didn't want to keep his job anymore.

"Old Master, you'd better leave. Don't make me throw you out!" the guard barked.

Old Master Sterling clutched his chest, nearly so enraged that his old illness flared up. He had already been suffering from chronic health problems, and after Megan Sterling poisoned him, his vitality had been badly depleted. He was no longer as robust as before.

"Old man, how are you feeling?" Old Madam Sterling hurried forward to support him.

A wave of grief rose in Old Master Sterling's heart. He had worked his whole life to build up the family fortune, only for it to end up like this because of the fighting among his children and grandchildren. He was in his old age now, a time when he should have been peacefully retired, yet instead he was being driven out of his own home by his son.

Just then, a luxury car slowly drove over. Thomas Sterling had returned.

When the guard saw Thomas Sterling's car, he quickly opened the gates of the Sterling estate.

The moment Old Master Sterling saw Thomas Sterling, he immediately perked up. Leaning on his cane, he went forward and blocked the car.

When the driver saw the old master, he quickly hit the brakes and stopped. Inside the car, Thomas Sterling and Ethan Sterling hadn't seen what was happening outside, and they were jolted by the sudden stop.

Thomas Sterling frowned in displeasure and snapped, "What is this? How are you driving?"

"Sir, I'm sorry. It... it's Old Master Sterling blocking the car in front of us."

When Thomas Sterling heard Old Master Sterling's name, his eyes narrowed slightly.

He opened the car door and got out, and Ethan Sterling followed right behind him.

Ever since Thomas Sterling took control of Sterling Group, Ethan Sterling and Tanya Sterling had also moved in. Now only the few of them were living in this enormous Sterling estate.

The moment Old Master Sterling saw Thomas Sterling, he furiously raised the cane in his hand and swung it at him, all the while scolding, "You unfilial bastard! You dared seize the Sterling family, and now you're even throwing me out of the house. I'll beat you to death today and clean house!"

Thomas Sterling's expression darkened, and he reached out and caught Old Master Sterling's cane.

"Dad, you can't be unreasonable. I only took what belongs to me. How is that called seizing it? Besides, your health is poor now. You need to stay in the hospital long-term to recover, so you don't have time to manage things here anyway. I'm helping you by looking after it for you temporarily."

"You... you..." Old Master Sterling's face darkened, and his body swayed unsteadily.

Thomas Sterling looked completely unmoved, his eyes full of indifference, as though the man before him were not his own father, but some irrelevant stranger.

His brows knitted tightly, afraid that if anything happened to Old Master Sterling here, he'd end up covered in trouble himself. He said to the guards, "Go escort the old master away."

At those words, the men at the gate immediately stepped forward.

"Get the hell away from me!" Old Master Sterling shouted angrily.

"Old Master, please don't make things difficult for us."

Seeing her own son turn so utterly heartless, Old Madam Sterling was so devastated that tears streamed down her face. People said that having children and grandchildren all around was the greatest happiness in life, but the Sterling family had many children, and with them came plenty of conflicts too.

The two old people were about to become homeless vagrants!

Just as the two sides were about to come to blows, a deep voice rang out from behind them: "Stop!"

Everyone turned to look and saw Julian Sterling getting out of a car. His face was cold and grim as he walked toward them, a chilling, razor-sharp aura radiating from him.
