Chapter 918: Chapter 918: Half-Brother with the Same Father
It seemed that the staff at the door already knew Justin Battleson would arrive, and they immediately showed him the way upon seeing him.
The elevator went directly to the top floor, where there was a separate room.
Justin spotted the man standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window immediately.
It seemed he also heard the elevator’s sound, as the man at the window turned around, revealing a handsome, youthful face.
His facial features bore some resemblance to Justin, but when he smiled, his phoenix eyes curved slightly upwards.
Unlike Justin’s sternness, this man radiated a pleasant demeanor, appearing easy to get along with.
"Long time no see, big brother."
Indeed, this person was Leon Battleson, Justin’s half-brother from the same father.
He wore a black suit with a red tie at his chest.
It was like blood, winding down from his neck.
Leon stepped forward, opening his arms as if he wanted to embrace Justin. Justin initially wanted to step aside, but ultimately, he did not move.
This gesture brought an even brighter smile to Leon’s face.
One would think they were very close brothers, not knowing their true relationship.
"Please, have a seat."
Leon gestured for Justin to sit in a spot that had been prepared in advance, "Big brother it’s been many years since we’ve seen each other, right? I have a lot to talk to you about."
Facing Leon’s enthusiasm, Justin, who was usually cold, unusually curled his lips into a smile.
Leon was slightly taken aback by this reaction.
Justin leaned back, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
"Indeed, it has been many years since we last met."
Leon snapped his fingers, and the pre-prepared drinks and dishes were served one after another.
"Since that’s the case, we as brothers should really have a good catch-up."
Leon’s smile was brimming as he propped his cheeks with his hands and looked up at Justin.
"It’s been years, big brother, and you’ve really changed a lot, hardly resembling that gloomy person you once were."
"Unfortunately, you haven’t progressed at all," Justin said nonchalantly.
At these words, Leon’s smile stiffened slightly.
"Leon, I’m very clear about why you’ve returned; we don’t need to waste time beating around the bush here."
"Big brother, saying that truly breaks my heart," Leon said pretentiously, though his hand hidden under the table was clenched tight.
"Then there’s nothing more to say," Justin’s fingertips lightly tapped the stem of the wine glass beside him, producing a crisp sound.
"I’m also curious why our father didn’t hand over the inheritance of the Battleson Family to you."
As he spoke, Justin closely watched Leon’s expressions.
"Perhaps father thought I wasn’t suited for business, so he let me life my life happily instead."
Leon squeezed these words out through his teeth, "By the way, father said he misses you a lot and wants to see you."
As if touching a raw nerve, Justin stood up and spoke impassively.
"If you brought me here just to say this, then there really isn’t much time."
After saying this, Justin turned around to leave.
"Big brother, after all the time I spent preparing all this, and you’re leaving so soon?"
Justin halted, turned his head, and spoke, "Leon, have you forgotten what you said before? You said you didn’t recognize me as your brother."
Watching Justin’s departing figure, the smile on Leon’s face was instantly shattered.
He clenched the wine glass, and forcefully smashed it to the ground.
"Justin Battleson! Who do you think you are!"
