Chapter 336
Chapter 336:
“Aiden, I’ll make you pay!” Without warning, Bart, who had been sitting quietly, sprang at Aiden with all his fury.
The crowd was focused on Leonie, and Bart’s move went unnoticed. Even the bodyguards failed to react in time.
With fury in his eyes, Bart gripped a dagger, his gaze locked on Aiden.
In the blink of an eye, Aiden extended his hand, effortlessly catching the dagger and halting Bart’s advance.
Fear shot through Bart as his pupils narrowed in terror.
He clenched his jaw, trying to force the dagger forward, but it remained unmoving. Aiden’s grip was unyielding, like a vise, keeping the dagger locked in place.
“So, this is your last try, huh?” Aiden’s voice dripped with mockery and disdain. “What a shame. I saw this coming from a mile away.”
“Aiden! Die!” Bart screamed, straining with everything he had, but the dagger remained completely still.
Aiden exhaled slowly, his voice steady. “I see you’re still hanging on. Well then, let me show you something.”
In a single motion, Aiden applied pressure, and to Bart’s growing terror, he slowly rose from his wheelchair.
“You can stand?” Bart’s eyes widened in shock, his face contorting with disbelief. This had been Aiden’s only vulnerability, but now, even that was gone.
Aiden stood upright, his form now looming like a towering mountain in Bart’s eyes. Despair crushed Bart’s heart. “I was never really disabled.”
Bart stiffened, a bitter laugh escaping his lips. “So it wasn’t just a hallucination. You really can stand.”
He glared at Aiden, his face contorting with a mix of rage and disbelief. “Are you even human? You pretended to be disabled for years just to trick me. You even put up with all my tests, all to deceive me.”
Aiden laughed loudly, without holding back. “If I hadn’t shown weakness, how would you have dared act so arrogant? If I hadn’t acted weak, how would you have shown your weakness? And if I hadn’t pretended to be weak, how would I have gotten to enjoy such a great performance?”

Each of those sharp retorts pierced through Bart’s pride, shattering it into pieces and sending him spiraling into a dark, bottomless pit of despair.
George, Ian, and the others watched in awe, their eyes welling up with emotion as they saw Aiden rise to his feet once again. In that moment, the heir of the Green family had finally become everything they had hoped for—strong, unwavering, and perfect.
“Kristopher, did you see that? Your grandson can stand!”
“Kristopher, Aiden is exceptional! You’ve picked an incredible successor for Green Group.”
The room hummed with praise and excitement.
Aiden was no longer just a powerful figure; he was now in perfect health. With his strength and resolve, it was clear that he was poised to dominate the future of Efrery.
Leonie watched in stunned silence. The young man she had secretly scorned was now revealed to be completely healthy. The realization hit her hard—if the Ramirez family wanted to survive, they would have to be extremely cautious around him. Any misstep could lead to their complete destruction.
In that moment, fear gripped her heart, and she didn’t dare think about revenge anymore. All she could focus on was how to protect her family.
Nina…
Leonie’s mind raced, and she knew she had to contact Nina right away. Only Nina might be able to control Aiden and prevent things from spiraling any further.
Janice looked up at Aiden, her eyes soft and a smile tugging at her lips. She felt genuinely happy for him.
