Chapter 1148
“He already admitted it. No one told him to. He did everything on his
own.”
Zoe’s face let out a sly grin. “And even if it was me, do you have any proof? Show me the evidence.”
With a loud thud, Ryan’s fist pounded the wall next to Zoe’s head,
making her gasp in fear.
“Listen to me.” Ryan breathed heavily, staring into her eyes without a hint of affection. “Luck doesn’t last forever, and using others for your own gain won’t go unnoticed. Aiden has watched you grow up since childhood. He’s been loyal to the Hoffman family and treated you like his own daughter, which is why he was willing to bear everything for you. But not everyone is like Aiden. Karma will eventually come back to haunt you, and you’ll pay a painful price for your actions. You will
be abandoned by everyone and end up in hell!”
Zoe let out a mocking laugh and said, “Ryan, I suggest you don’t
mess with me. You’ve lost your father and abandoned your siste
you going to leave your mother too? Mom loves me a lot. I mean
everything to her. If anything happens to me, how do you think o
weak and sickly mother will cope? Can she even carry on living?” Zo
shook her head, a gleam of triumph in her eyes.
Ryan tensed up, the veins in his arms bulging.
Liam felt like exploding with anger, his beard bristling as he glared.
He couldn’t believe how sly his family members were. Always quick to take credit for success, but the first ones to bail when things went
wrong.
“Dad, we need to leave,” Liam urged, feeling helpless in the face of the “live stream” situation.
“We can’t just walk away,” Logan said in a low voice. His face paled as he clutched his trembling cane. “If we leave now, the Hoffman family’s reputation will definitely be ruined!”
He had no choice but to salvage their family’s reputation by publicly cutting ties with Aiden. He even had to ask for forgiveness during the live broadcast watched by millions of people.
“Aiden, I brought you back from the orphanage. Since you were young, I provided for your education alongside the young masters. I’ve always made sure you were well taken care of in terms of food, clothing, or expenses. It is deeply disappointing to see you behave so badly and unreasonably, placing us in this position after we’ve treated you like one of our own. I’m so disappointed in you!”
Logan continued, “Mr. Thompson, Mr. Salvador, now th who’s responsible for all this, the Hoffman family won’t obj
whatever decision you make. We’ll also take full responsibil
harm caused to Ms. Thompson this time.”
Bella watched with a cold smirk on her lips. Earlier, when Justin
presented evidence, the Hoffmans had remained indifferent and
keen on protecting their own. But now they have completely shift their attitude and stance. They were quite skilled at adapting according to circumstances.

Logan’s words appeared to be sincere and thoughtful, as if they had taken everything into account.
But Justin was still unsatisfied. He gently held Bella around the waist and spoke in a low and cold tone, “Mr. Hoffman, do you believe that handling it this way will suffice?”
“Mr. Salvador, the people from our Hoffman family have already been dealt with by you, and we have also made a firm decision to take full responsibility. What more do you want?!” Liam felt like Justin was practically taunting them with his remarks, causing anger to course
through his body.
