From Ruin She Rose novel Chapter 382

Chapter 382

When Austin was seven, Dylan personally arranged for a third of Aaron’s assets to be transferred into Austin’s name.

Once Austin started high school, Dylan began having him get involved in the company’s affairs.

Back then, Austin thought Dylan was truly looking out for him. After all, ever since he returned to the Pierce family, Dylan had always acted like a loving grandfather, showing concern for him in every way.

The Pierce family had a lot of relatives, and most of them lived together in the Pierce Manor. At just three years old, Austin got picked on and left out all the time because he was the illegitimate child.

But whenever that happened, it was always Dylan who would step in and have his back. So to little Austin, Dylan was the person he felt closest to in the whole world.

But as he got older, Austin finally realized what Dylan was really up to..

Dylan didn’t fight for a third of Aaron’s assets for Austin just to give him the guts to stand up to Isabella-it was all about driving a wedge between him and Aaron.

For a man like Aaron, who cared about profit above everything, having an illegitimate son who admired and depended on him was fine-but having a son who might fight him for his interests? That was absolutely out of the question.

Whenever Dylan stepped in to scold the other Pierce family members for picking on Austin, it wasn’t about having his back at all-it was just painting a bigger target on him.

After all, if Dylan had wanted to protect Austin, those people would’ve been too scared to mess with him, instead of making things worse every single time.

Having Austin get involved in the company wasn’t because Dylan saw him as a true member of the Pierce family—it was because Dylan saw Austin as a whetstone.

A whetstone meant just for Calvin-the legitimate son who’d had a smooth ride all his life and needed some real challenges if he was ever going to be worthy of inheriting the Pierce family.
