Sweet Twins novel Chapter 441

"When did that man ever take me as his nephew? He even tried to kill me," sneered Charles.

"You... You shouldn't be trying to be like him. Derrick is obviously obsessed with acquiring wealth and power. You can't be like that!" When Frederic spoke again, he begged for mercy.

"So, will you promise to give me permission to marry Nancy?" Charles felt that this was the right time to ask for his request.

"These matters have nothing to do with your marriage. It's our family business. You can't just sit there and allow your uncle to die!" pleaded Frederic.

"Alright, alright. You shouldn't be arguing with grandpa, Charles. First of all, find a way to get Joseph out, so that he can finally see the truth about his father's car accident." Hardy had been suffering in misery these days. Despite everything, Derrick was still his brother, and Joseph was his nephew.

After all, he wasn't as cruel or merciless as his brother. The man didn't live a life of indulgence and never had aggressive desire towards anything.

A man who didn't seek or desire would naturally put more value into the family relationship.

"At least your father is more humane that you are. Unlike you, he at least has the capabilities to be concerned about Joseph. You, on the other hand, are willing to watch Joseph die!" Once again, Frederic couldn't resist arguing with Charles.

"Getting Joseph out is the easy part. However, I would have to tell the police the truth about Derrick's car accident. It is the only way to remove Hiram as a suspect in the case," said Charles.

Frederic waved his hand in annoyance. "Enough! I don't need you to talk about these trivial matters in front of me. Just deal what you have to and come back as soon as you can without bothering me!"

Frederic then proceeded to wave his arms at Bobby and Nadia. "Come here, precious children. Talk to great grandpa. Only the two of you can stop me from feeling so upset!"

Bobby and Nadia agreeably walked up to their great grandfather and placed their warm faces on his.

Charles called Jay right away and asked him to let Joseph free.

The past few days, Joseph had been completely isolated inside. He was like a ticking bomb that could go off at any given moment.

He hadn't eaten or drank any water the whole time either.

Every day, he yelled to get him out of there.

No one dared allow to let him out without Charles' permission. They simply let him make all the noise he wanted.

When Joseph noticed that none of the police were paying attention to him, he came up with a terrible idea.

He was always compliant during the daytime, but whenever the night came and a few people were left on duty, he would cause a thunderous scene.

It would get so loud that the police who were on duty would be unable to rest properly.

Since the police always had the benefit of resting the next day, they could easily look past Joseph's actions. However, the other detainees had to experience that every night, so they weren't happy about it at all.

All the other cellmates had work to do in the daytime, and they didn't have the same luxuries and privilege that Joseph had coming from a wealthy family.

Whenever Joseph instigated the noise, other people would imitate his sound and cause a collective uproar.

Therefore, no one could sleep well.

Everyone was tormented by Joseph's antics in the last few days.

"Why hasn't Mr. Fu let him out yet?"

"Exactly. The bastard is causing a lot of trouble for everyone here."

As he lay on his bed, Joseph snickered and said, "If you want to be relieved from my torture, all you have to do is give me the damn phone."

Joseph was completely oblivious about Derrick's condition, or the current state of the TS Group. All he cared about was to get out of the prison.

"All the prisoners here aren't allowed access to a phone or make a call. What makes you think you are an exception?" the policemen asked, disgruntled by Joseph's entitlement.

By this point, the policemen were already so sick of prisoners who came from affluent families. As they were so spoiled by their families, a little bit of suffering was too much for them to bear.

However, it wasn't that Joseph could not put up with the prison's tough conditions. He was just such a noisy man.

From the moment he arrived, he had done nothing but cause turmoil for everyone.

"I didn't do anything wrong! You are all puppets to Nancy's deception. I tell all of you, when I finally find evidence that she was the one who framed my father, I will be sending her here personally!" Joseph was very stubborn. The truth was that he liked Nancy a little too much. When he found out the seriousness of Charles' relationship with Nancy, he realized he could never win her heart.

That being said, he despised any woman that he couldn't have.

Joseph figured that it must have been Nancy and Charles who conspired together and tried to murder his father.

"You don't even know how you can get out of here. Humph!" said the policeman in disdain.

"My grandfather is coming to save me. I'll be out of here before you know it. You better treat me well, or I'll demolish this place the moment I get out," threatened Joseph.

The police simply thought that Joseph was a little punk who was talking nonsense, so no one paid attention to him.

However, a few moments later, they received a phone call from Charles.

"Excuse me, please release Joseph. Nancy's injury is a lot better now."

The policeman opened Joseph's cell the moment he heard Charles' instructions.

"Joseph, you're free."

"What?" Joseph jumped out of his bed from surprise and said, "Ha-ha! Letting me out so soon, huh? My grandfather has called you already, hasn't he?

Joseph just assumed that Charles must have wanted him imprisoned forever and didn't even think it was a possibility that he would call to let him out.

So, he had placed all his hopes on Frederic.

"It was Mr. Fu. Charles called me and asked me to let you go," answered the policeman contemptuously.

"Charles?" Joseph was shortly speechless from the shocking revelation. However, moments later, he hurried out of his cell and said, "Let me tell you, even if it was Charles who called, I'm sure he was doing it under my grandfather's orders. Do you know who my grandfather is? Two decades ago, every single person in this city knew about my grandfather's position and identity. He was omnipotent and powerful, so no one dares to disobey him. That includes Charles! Do you understand?"

"Joseph, even until now, we know all about your grandfather. You better get going now, before your grandfather gets worried," urged the policeman.

Joseph arrogantly clapped his hands and left the building.

The moment he reached the gate, he realized that no one was waiting for him outside. He started talking to himself and said, "I'm going home today but grandpa didn't even send anyone to pick me up. Does he even still think of me as his grandson? How could he do this to me?"

As he muttered these words to himself, he hailed himself a taxi. He got inside and said to the driver, "Bring me to the hospital."

Approximately forty minutes later, Joseph arrived at the hospital.

He went straight to the hospital to check up on Derrick. While he was gone, his biggest fear was that his father would die.

If Derrick died, he wouldn't know what he would do.

Naturally, as soon as he arrived at the hospital, he wanted to go straight to Derrick's ward.

However, upon passing by Frederic's ward, he suddenly heard the conversation between Frederic and Charles.

They were talking about the car accident that Derrick had planned.
