Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 2110

The assembly was mostly made up of elders, with few of the younger generation present.

Lucinda decided to sit with Uma, who she knew best, hoping their conversation would ease the tedium of the proceedings.

Ten minutes later, Nathan arrived at the entrance of the ancestral temple, radiating nobility and sternness, with Sonny standing just behind him.

His presence prompted all the Payne family members to rise and greet him in unison with a respectful, “Mr.

Payne.

”

Nathan acknowledged them with a slight nod, his stern expression and commanding presence palpable as he walked into the ancestral temple.

Norton remained in the bedroom, resting, and was absent.

Nathan left Norton’s seat vacant and took the seat next to it.

Following his lead, everyone else sat down.

The ancestral temple fell silent, and Nathan cast a glance at Sonny beside him.

Sonny, perceptive to the cue, began the announcement.

“In recent days, Mr.

Nathan’s investigation has revealed that the car accident which claimed the lives of his parents over 20 years ago was no accident but a premeditated act.

The perpetrator was Mr.

Mylo.

”

Whispers erupted among the family members, while some of the elders remained silent and composed, seemingly unsurprised by the revelation.

Uma, however, was visibly shaken.

Her eyes widened and her mouth dropped open.

“Lucinda, is this true? Mylo actually harmed Nathan’s parents?”

Lucinda nodded and patted Uma’s hand, signaling her to stay calm.

Sonny coughed Lightly a few times, and the murmuring quickly subsided.

He then presented Mylo’s confession to the respected elders for their review.

“Mr.

Mylo harmed his own brother, making him utterly despicable.

This truth was even kept from Mr.

Norton.

After learning of it, he has been ill these past few days.

A murderer Like Mylo is unworthy of being a descendant of the Payne family.

Today, on behalf of Mr.

Norton, Mr.

Nathan will sever his father-son relationship with Mr.

Mylo, expelling him from the family.

Henceforth, there will be no place for Mylo or Ronan in the Payne family.

Their legal responsibilities will be entirely independent of the Payne family.

”

Sonny’s voice resonated with a sonorous and forceful tone, stirring a wave of murmurs throughout the ancestral temple.

An elder, Zander Payne, holding the confession, looked up in surprise.

“Isn’t expelling Mylo and his family a bit too severe as punishment?”

Another elder, Rolf Payne, nodded in agreement.

“No matter how grave Mylo’s mistakes, they are his alone and should not implicate Ronan.

After all, Ronan is a descendant of the Payne family.

Involving him in this punishment does seem overly harsh.

”

Sonny glanced at Nathan, whose expression remained calm, yet Sonny could discern a dark, intense emotion simmering in his eyes.

“Have Mr.

Rolf and Mr.

Zander forgotten? Not long ago, despite knowing Mr.

Norton was on blood pressure medication, Ronan tricked him into consuming incompatible food, leading to Mr.

Norton’s poisoning and subsequent coma!”

Sonny’s voice boomed across the place, ensuring everyone heard his declaration.

“Ronan’s blatant disrespect and unfilial behavior stem directly from his father’s influence.

He is a young villain shaped by Mr.

Mylo.

If left unchecked, he will inevitably bring further disgrace to the Payne family, just like his father.

Retaining such a disgrace within our ranks invites mockery from other prominent families and undermines Mr.

Nathan’s leadership.

”

Sonny paused deliberately, then produced several more documents from the folder-additional evidence of Mylo and Ronan’s attempts to harm Nathan-and handed them to the elders for inspection.

The evidence extended beyond the car accident from over two decades ago to more recent transgressions.

Sonny fixed his gaze on Zander and Rolf, challenging them.

“Are you suggesting you were aware of the car accident from over twenty years ago and the deliberate harm Ronan caused Mr.

Norton? Or are you implying involvement in the various covert schemes against Mr.

Nathan and Mr.

Norton?”

Rolf and Zander were taken aback by Sonny’s words, worried about their involvement in the serious accusations.

They quickly denied any connection, shaking their heads vehemently.

“No, no, I have nothing to do with these issues,” Rolf exclaimed.
