Chapter 106 Intellectual Disability
Upon witnessing the scene inside the car, the driver shouted a warning, “Mr. Sterling, watch out behind you.”
Terrence Sterling had known despicable individuals like Leyton for over twenty years. Could he not be aware of their true nature? Of course, he was prepared.
As Leyton’s knife came slashing towards him, Terrence Sterling swung the iron rod in his hand, delivering a forceful blow to Leyton’s head.
While Leyton’s knife cut through Terrence Sterling’s arm, the impact on his head was severe, causing his eyes to roll back as he vomited blood and collapsed unconscious on the ground.
Seeing their leader defeated, the other motorcyclists retreated, exchanging glances before abandoning Leyton and fleeing on their bikes.
Those who could escape did so, leaving behind feigned casualties on the ground.
The driver hurriedly got out of the car to assist, “Mr. Sterling.”
Being timid by nature, the driver was solely a driver and had never witnessed such a bloody scene before.
After the recent confrontation, Terrence Sterling’s image surged within the driver’s perception.
Indeed, it was the first time the driver had seen his boss engage in such a brutal fight.
Despite sustaining injuries and bleeding profusely, with a pale complexion, Terrence Sterling struggled to maintain his composure after sitting in the car.
The driver promptly prepared to drive him to the hospital, but considering Leyton’s relation as his cousin, Terrence Sterling insisted on bringing him along.
The news of Terrence Sterling’s attack on the way quickly reached Ravenwood Hall.
His mother, Stella, and father, Julian Sterling, rushed to the hospital, while Rick Shepard also received the message and promptly arrived.
Throughout the wound treatment process, Terrence Sterling remained silent. Once his wound was sutured, he saw no need for further observation and skipped the hospital admission procedures.
He had an aversion to hospitals.
Following the wound treatment, Terrence Sterling instructed Rick Shepard who had come to drive him back to Thornfield Gardens.
“Mr. Sterling, shouldn’t you stay for observation?” Rick Shepard expressed concern.
“No need,” Terrence Sterling stated emotionlessly, heading out.
Eventually, his parents arrived, finding Terrence Sterling changed into clean clothes with his wounds attended to, no visible external injuries.
“Where are you injured, Terry? What happened?” Stella fretted.
Julian also inquired, “Who did this to you? Have you offended someone again?”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Over the years, Terrence Sterling had offended many and acquired numerous enemies.
In a cold tone, Terrence Sterling revealed, “Leyton is still in the operating room.”
With that statement, they understood the situation.
Seeing his son injured, Stella immediately criticized, “Look at all those relatives of yours. Mason harmed Terry just days ago, and now Leyton is causing trouble with Terry. And you continue to defend their family.”
“I had no idea it would escalate to this. Leyton is usually obtuse, but I never thought he would target our son,” Julian replied.
With a slight frown, Terrence Sterling avoided watching his parents argue, walking past them directly.
Accustomed to their son’s indifference, the couple could not influence their son’s behavior and had little communication.
Terrence Sterling signed off on all their expenses.
Without concern for their son, Julian could only visit his nephew.
As Leyton remained in the resuscitation room, Julian inquired with the doctor, “How is he? Is everything okay?”
The doctor objectively stated, “There is no immediate danger to his life, but the head trauma may have some impact on his intellect.”
Upon hearing this, Julian’s expression shifted, sighing deeply as he quickly accepted this reality.
This was not the first time such incidents occurred, and Julian had grown accustomed to them. Knowing his son well, he believed it fortunate to preserve his life.
As the family expanded, each member desired a slice of the pie. Julian was well aware of the covetousness his brothers held towards Sterling Corporation, eager to seize a share.
His mother had previously managed the company and turned a blind eye.
Everyone sought to position themselves for inheritance.
Subsequently, his mother handed over the company to Terrence Sterling, much to the dissatisfaction of his uncles and aunts, leading to various troubles. Terrence Sterling, however, remained resolute, showing no mercy and disregarding family ties. Those who caused trouble or made mistakes were either dismissed or incarcerated.
Now, they even had intellectual disabilities in the family.
Repeatedly cautioning those in the family against provoking his son, Julian’s advice fell on deaf ears.
