previously festive and harmonious banquet hall once again became tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia’s words left the Leocadia family members completely baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The poisoner wasn’t Adele Leocadia?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And wasn’t Adele Leocadia killed on the spot by Natalia Leocadia?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the time of the incident, the Leocadia family’s power was cut off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All surveillance had stopped working.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if someone wanted to investigate, there was simply no way to start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, after his recovery, Evangeline Leocadia took control once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former acting Family Head, Natalia Leocadia, had been completely sidelined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t the matter settled?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But from what they knew of Old Master Leocadia, it seemed like it wasn’t over…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the Leocadia family members stood up, not uttering a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At such a time, no one dared to speak rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The person who poisoned me,” Evangeline Leocadia gestured, “doesn’t need to sit down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, all the Leocadia family members neatly took their seats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a single person remained standing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked at each other, confusion in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Old Master Leocadia already have the evidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they hadn’t heard any news of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No one will admit it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia scanned the room and finally, his gaze landed on Natalia Leocadia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, Natalia Leocadia was wearing a black suit, radiant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before this, after being purged, his expression had always been one of sulking and frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that he encountered some good fortune?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll give him one last chance,” Evangeline Leocadia’s brows slightly furrowed, “to step forward on his own, and I will let him leave the family with dignity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes narrowed: “I believe you all are aware of my methods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sense of fear and anxiety once again descended upon the banquet hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew full well Evangeline Leocadia’s way of doing things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iron-fisted, uncompromising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even cold-blooded and merciless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the Leocadia family’s status today couldn’t have been achieved without Old Master Leocadia’s painstaking efforts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, no one stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if nobody present had anything to do with the poisoning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Natalia Leocadia.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia turned his head, looking at his eldest son: “Do you have anything to say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he received the news, his heart was filled with disappointment, anger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, if he had eliminated Natalia Leocadia as well, perhaps today’s events would not have occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn’t do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia, though he considered himself cold-blooded, admitted that he truly couldn’t bring himself to kill a family member without a cause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In all his deeds, he strived to be without guilt, “Kyler Reed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below the nine springs, to face the ancestors with dignity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of eyes simultaneously focused on Natalia Leocadia!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone suspected that this matter was related to Natalia Leocadia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the person who stood to gain the most from Evangeline Leocadia’s sudden death was Natalia Leocadia!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could smoothly inherit the entire Leocadia family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after the death of Adele Leocadia, everything became uncertain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was a silencing murder or a spur-of-the-moment act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any case, Natalia Leocadia’s power had completely crumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia was not Justin Lopez, just as Natalia Leocadia was not Jennifer Lopez.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To usurp the Leocadia family was no easy feat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father, what do you imply?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His name called out, Natalia Leocadia showed no panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a confident smile was on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned back in his chair, confidently saying: “Are you implying that I am the one who poisoned you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room erupted in commotion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This attitude…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It hardly sounded like he was talking to his own father!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Evangeline Leocadia fell ill, Natalia Leocadia had been respectful and fawning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, could it be that knowing his rise was hopeless, he had decided to recklessly smash everything to pieces?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big brother, you had better speak to Father with respect!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne Leocadia stood up, speaking unhappily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had always disapproved of Natalia Leocadia’s behavior, but out of respect for his elder brother, he had always restrained himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, during the time Old Master Leocadia had been seriously ill, the conflict between the two brothers had completely erupted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was thinking of monopolizing the family enterprise, the other was focused on saving their father’s life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two brothers were openly and secretly fighting, and the conflict had even escalated into the public eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it had not been for Sophia Leocadia ultimately bringing in Julius Reed, it was likely Daphne Leocadia who would’ve been held accountable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You want to rely on your daughter’s status to become the Leocadia Family heir?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natalia Leocadia sneered as he looked at Daphne Leocadia, “You’re being rather impatient.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shut up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne Leocadia frowned deeply, “Father is still here, yet you discuss such matters!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting aside the Leocadia family business, that’s your father!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the eldest son, to be disloyal and disrespectful, you truly shame the Leocadia name!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been thoroughly educated in traditional values as a child, with loyalty and filial piety engraved in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, during that time when Old Master Leocadia had fallen ill, possibly close to death,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All Leocadia Family Members were busy taking sides and fighting, trying to seize control of the family enterprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Daphne Leocadia and Sophia Leocadia, father and daughter, had been running around, trying to save Evangeline Leocadia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, heaven rewarded their efforts, and the hard work of Daphne Leocadia and Sophia Leocadia was not in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eldest son?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natalia Leocadia slowly stood up, his expression cold, “You can ask the old bastard if he ever treated me as the eldest son.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Leocadia Family Members gasped in shock!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old bastard?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he referring to Evangeline Leocadia?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the capital, there were few who dared to call him that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Natalia Leocadia no longer wish to live today?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ƝονǤ0.ƈο\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing these words, Evangeline Leocadia’s face became extremely grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never expected his eldest son, whom he had raised for decades, to speak like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shut up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne Leocadia roared angrily, “Do not disrespect Father!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody could have imagined that the Leocadia Family’s eldest son would call his own father an ‘old bastard’ at the family banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disrespectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disloyal and unfilial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh.” Natalia Leocadia chuckled lightly, stretching lazily with an air of indifference, “I know, you’ve installed hidden cameras in the Leocadia house to capture evidence of me retrieving the antidote.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned around, looking at Evangeline Leocadia with interest, “Father, are you holding photographs, planning to publicly reveal my crimes and then pretend to be forgiving, sparing my life?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natalia Leocadia was courting death with his words!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was tantamount to…an implicit admission of poisoning?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You admit it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia was also somewhat surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had always operated discretely; how had Natalia Leocadia found out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what was even stranger was that after finding out, Natalia Leocadia didn’t flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he was wearing a black suit, brazenly attending the banquet?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it the confidence of someone strategizing behind the scenes?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or the bitter desperation of someone driven into a corner?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here are the photographs.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia pinched out a stack of photographs from inside his jacket and threw them directly onto the dining table, “You’re right, I’ve been investigating you, and I know everything crystal clear!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family members widened their eyes, looking at the photographs scattered on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had never imagined that a proper banquet would turn into such a situation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Were father and son really about to turn against each other?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I did poison him,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natalia Leocadia pointed at his black suit, “Do you know why I’m wearing this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because today, I came to send you off!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room erupted in commotion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words struck like a bolt from the blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stunned the Leocadia Family Members so much that they doubted if they had misheard,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or perhaps, were hallucinating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ambitious as a wolf, just like your father back then,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evangeline Leocadia looked at Natalia Leocadia indifferently, speaking softly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1348,"2026-06-06T17:05:07.429Z",1,"novelbin.me","088891e2cdc27a073c60eb31800412ede24f19bafc9c377e929af0e3d4ce4c39","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-902","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-750",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
