As the car was only halfway through the journey, Yenny’s phone suddenly cang.
He glanced at the caller ID on the screen.
It was an unfamiliar number.
But he had a feeling deep inside that this call was from the person he had been looking for.
Yenny was silent for a moment, then picked up the phone and answered the call.
Neither of them spoke first.
There was only a faint sound of breathing coming from the other end of the phone.
But even with just that sound, Yenny could confirm the identity of the person on the other side.
“I really underestimated you. Your abilities are far greater than I imagined,” Yenny finally broke the silence.
“After all, I am your older brother. I can’t be inferior to my younger brother,” Mr. Fermon’s voice came through the phone.
Because he had inhaled too much smoke in the fire years ago, his voice was hoarser than Yenny’s.
His voice was unsettling. It was as if he was a demon who crawled up from the depths of hell and sought revenge.
However, Yenny had never been afraid of such ethereal things in his life.
“You’ve come back with such fanfare, causing such a commotion. Is it because you no longer have any attachment to this world?” Yenny absentmindedly tapped the armrest next to him.
He appeared somewhat lazy and nonchalant.
At this moment, he was no longer as restless as before.
It was as if he had returned to his usual high and mighty, gentle and refined CEO of Pembroke Group.
“I have only you as the sole remembrance of this world, my dear.” Mr. Fermon said slowly.
There seemed to be a hint of amusement in his voice.

This made his voice even more eerie.
“I’ve been dreaming about Mom and Dad lately. They told me they were lonely down there and missed you dearly,” Mr. Fermon said slowly.
“So, do you think you can kill me?” Yenny responded as if he had heard a funny joke.
“I have to give it a try. Tomorrow afternoon, at 3 o’clock, South City Cemetery. Are you dare to come?” Mr. Fermon finally revealed the purpose of his direct phone call,
“Are you trying to provoke me with your words?” Yenny snorted.
“Even if it’s a provocation, will you come or not?” Mr. Fermon wanted a definite answer.
“That depends on my mood. If I feel like coming, I will. If I don’t, then I won’t,” Yenny disliked the feeling of being manipulated by others the most.
After being locked up in that mansion for eighteen years, he had had enough of that powerless life.
“Whether you come or not, I will wait for you. If you don’t show up tomorrow, then I will personally come find you!”
After Mr. Fermon finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.
As Yenny looked at his phone, which had returned to the home screen, a glimmer of obscure light flickered in his eyes.
Sitting in the front seat, the assistant sensed the change in Yenny’s emotions.
However, he didn’t dare to ask any questions, as Yenny remained silent.
They continued driving towards the company.
However, at the next intersection, Yenny finally spoke up.
“Take me home.” It was just three simple words, but it carried an irresistible firmness.
“Yes!” The assistant immediately turned the car around.
Upon returning to the Pembroke family residence, Yenny dismissed his assistant and granted all the household staff a day off.
After ensuring he was the only one in the house, he slowly made his way to his bedroom.
The interior of the room was predominantly black.
The only touch of color was a painting of sunflowers on the wall.
Its vibrant hues seemed out of place in the dimly lit room.
Yenny took slow steps toward the sunflower painting.
Then, he gently removed the painting from the wall.
In the next moment, the walls began to slowly open, revealing a hidden compartment.
The compartment was covered with a red cloth.
Yenny slowly reached out and lifted the red cloth.
If anyone were to witness the scene inside the compartment, they would likely scream in horror.
Because there was no gold or jewelry hidden behind it.
Instead, there were two grim and eerie skulls.
Yenny stared fearlessly at the skulls in front of him..
Then, a faint smile appeared on his face.
“You guys should be very happy to hear this news. The son you’re so proud of is actually still alive.
“Are you so happy that you want to jump out of the coffin?
“Haha, it’s just a shame you don’t even have coffins. It’s truly quite amusing.”
Yenny continued to gaze at the two skulls, his laughter contorting into a chilling, piercing sound.
But as his laughter continued, it transformed into a chilling, grating sound.
When Yenny looked up, his eyes carried a sinister crimson glow.
“Do you regret it now? Regret bringing me into this world?” he sneered.
“All those people praising your greatness. Haha, what greatness do you possess?
You’re just cowards!
“You couldn’t bear to abandon your own flesh and blood, yet you couldn’t believe in me either.
“You kept me locked up in that mansion. You think that’s my salvation.
“But do you know how much I despised that place? It was a prison to me!”
Yenny continued to vent out his anger and spoke, “For as long as I can remember, I could only stand by the window every day, longing for your arrival.
“Days turned into weeks, months into years, a whole eighteen years!
“I spent eighteen years in anticipation and longing!
“Do you know how I endured those lonely nights?
“What makes you think that’s good for me?
“Do you think I have to thank you for bringing me into this world?
“Wrong! I would have preferred you to erase me when I was still a fetus.
“I never wanted to be imprisoned for eighteen years like a monster!”
Yenny’s smile grew wider. “Since you all think I’m a monster, I’ll become the monster you’ve been wanting me to be.
“What would I be like?
“Mutilating siblings? Slaughtering loved ones?
“Hahaha, do you find that the current me fits perfectly with your initial expectations?”
Yenny seemed to be completely immersed in his own world.
He had become paranoid and arrogant. Or perhaps, this was the real him. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
The next afternoon, Mr. Fermon arrived at the cemetery at three o’clock as scheduled.
He had been waiting there for almost half an hour, but Yenny still hadn’t shown up.
“Are you still going to wait?” Mr. Fermon’s earpiece transmitted the voice of Marina.
She was hiding at a street corner with Simon.
She used surveillance cameras and headsets to contact Yenny.
“Yes!” Mr. Fermon replied with determination.
“Are you sure he will come today?” Marina’s voice carried a hint of doubt.
Yenny wasn’t a fool. He must know that Mr. Fermon’s invitation was likely a trap.
Would he still come willingly and obediently?
