Granny Lynch harrumphed coldly. She swept Adrian a cold gaze.
"What? Did I come at a bad time? Am I standing in the way of you trying to weed out the bad seed for the Lynch family while usurping someone’s power?"
The smile on Adrian's face froze. He cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "Mom, what are you saying? I'm only trying to help the Lynch family get rid of the bad seed. I'm not trying to steal anybody’s power.
"You know that the Lynch family is powerful. The Lynch Group is the hard work of many of our ancestors. If it falls into the hands of a terrible grandchild, people would laugh at us.
"Currently, Joshua is accused of being a scumbag, so it’s natural that I...want to help investigate it." 1
Granny Lynch laughed. She lowered her gaze and looked at Adrian.
"You’re right. The Lynch family's fortune had been saved up by generations of our ancestors. The terrible grandchild isn’t worthy of having the Lynch family's money.”
Then, she looked at Adrian coldly.
"All these years, how much Lynch family money have you spent?"
Adrian was stunned. He never would have thought that weeding out the bad seed of the Lynch family would backfire on him.
He looked at Granny Lynch in a daze. "Mom, what do you mean by that?"
"What I mean is..." Granny Lynch snorted coldly and raised her voice. "You said you want to investigate whether Joshua is a scumbag or not, whether he did anything immoral. That means that you still have no proof in your hands to show that Joshua did those things.
"However, in my hands right now are clear evidence of you and your illegitimate son doing terrible and immoral things over the years.”
Granny Lynch’s murky eyes glared at Adrian coldly.
"Tell me: Should we weed out the bad seeds starting from people who had solid evidence against them? Also, you're Joshua's father. You're older than him. It should start from you."
