Alistair looked like he wanted to protest but couldn't come up with a valid argument. His son had done more than he did for the company in the past four years and he knew it. But he was a traditional man stuck in the mindset of a dying world.
He had cared so much about carrying on his bloodline that he had destroyed an innocent woman (mostly innocent anyway, she had still gotten involved with a married man but that wasn't worth dying over). He had also killed his own grandchild and abandoned one son while forcing another to become his mindless clone. It made Aaron sick. This man deserved everything that was coming for him.
