Chapter Ninety-NineClement didn't walk in a normal manner, but he barged in directly as if he wanted to catch someone red-handed. Z and the female secretary outside were shocked at his impulsive and rude behavior, but they dared not say anything because he was Jethro's son."Clement, Mr. Jethro is not in a good mood, and you should take it easy so you don't stumble." Z forced a smile, thinking about the future days when she might have to serve this volatile man, and she couldn't help but feel uneasy.Clement didn't care. "So what? Can he stop me?""Alright, both of you go outside." Jethro sighed coldly, speaking to Z and the secretary.Clement became more and more arrogant, unaware that his actions were permitted by Jethro. It wasn't that Jethro felt guilty towards Clement, but he didn't have time to care about such matters. As long as Clement could fulfill the tasks he set out, that was all that mattered to him."What brings you here?" Jethro spoke seriously.With a serious and cold
Chapter One Hundred Harvey's mind was completely focused on Gemma, but he couldn't ignore the weighty matter regarding his family. The more annoyed Harvey felt, the more he thought of his "wife". "Is she still refusing to cancel this engagement?" Harvey glanced at the butler. The woman arranged by the Susan family to be engaged to Harvey was a member of the Reed family. She was also on the inheritance list and the only granddaughter given such favor. The butler shook his head. "She is determined not to sign. I see a strong determination in her attitude." Upon hearing this, Harvey sneered. As long as he wanted to, not only Susan but Reed as well could not stand firm, yet this woman was adamant against his wishes. They had met before and got engaged at the behest of their superiors. Caught off guard and cornered, Harvey had no choice but to agree at the time. He didn't care about the woman's feelings towards their engagement. "Do you know why she won't sign the divorce papers? I h
Chapter One Hundred OneHarvey wanted to go somewhere else and not continue this pointless situation, but Liam wouldn't allow Harvey to leave so easily."My mother said, in the future, I will become the sole owner of this clan. When that happens, I will erase your name and your little family from the clan to see if you can still be so arrogant," Liam chuckled triumphantly, looking at Harvey.Although Liam was older than Harvey, he wasn't a smart child. The words he just said could get him expelled from the clan.The Susan clan was large and longstanding. Not everyone in the clan could inherit the wealth; only those in power had that privilege. Because of its long history, the Susan clan had a large scale and therefore required five people to share the power at the same time, without a single clan owner like many other clans.The words Liam just spoke could be classified as an attempt to seize the power of the Susan clan.Harvey was astonished to hear Liam speak like that. Although he
Chapter 102"Break this place for me! Find that bastard Harvey and bring him out, or maybe he's scared and doesn't dare to show up." Liam laughed maniacally.The old butler remained calm and composed, which only infuriated Liam further. In his head, he was already contemplating when to finish off Harvey and also kill this pathetic old man.The loud noise was too disturbing for Harvey to continue sleeping. He didn't want to pay attention and hand over control to Vin. But it seemed that the group in the main hall was determined not to leave unless he showed up."That's extremely impolite. You're no longer children, and entering someone else's house without even greeting," Harvey said.Liam glared at Harvey with anger. Even though he brought many people here and destroyed everything around, Harvey showed no concern. His disdainful and cold gaze remained the same as it was twenty years ago.Whenever Liam thought about it, he felt like going crazy and wanted to rush forward and kill Harvey
Chapter 103 After Harvey woke up from a brief nap, everything returned to normal as if there had never been any altercation. The productivity of the subordinates was excellent, which made Harvey feel more at ease. "Vin, why does Liam know Gemma's whereabouts? I didn't think he had the ability to track us." Harvey tapped the desk, looking lazy and frustrated as he stared at the light meal in front of him. Vin had changed into a new outfit and stood beside the serving tray, pouring wine for Harvey. He said, "Liam had an exchange with Jethro. Liam helped Jethro investigate Gemma's current whereabouts, and Jethro helped Liam gain the position of the Susan family patriarch." "That's it?" Harvey felt somewhat disappointed hearing this. Initially, when Liam brought a group of formidable men here, Harvey thought that Liam truly had the skills to confront him. But in the end, Liam was only a puppet in Jethro's hands. Vin nodded lightly. "I also suspect that Jethro wouldn't let go easily, b
Chapter 104Clement disregarded whatever his father said; all he wanted was his mother. Having witnessed the terrible treatment his father had given to his mother in the past, he despised his father and didn't want his mother to return to live with the man who had hurt her.But Clement overestimated his own patience and underestimated the pain in his heart. He believed that as long as his mother was happy, he wouldn't feel sad even if he couldn't be with her. However, it was completely the opposite. Every time he thought about his mother forgetting about him, forgetting that she has a son named Clement, tears welled up in his eyes.To conceal his own weakness, Clement hid under the covers every night in bed so that no one could detect him."Then, Dad, do a little bit, let's find a way to get my Mom back?" Clement exclaimed in frustration.Jethro had grown accustomed to his son's agitated and impolite attitude. At least Clement's demeanor reminded Jethro of Gemma, his wife."You don't
Chapter 105"Clement has escaped? What did you all do that allowed him to escape?" Jethro rubbed his temples, his voice filled with frustration.Recent events had already given him a headache, and now his son managed to escape despite the numerous guards and maids in the mansion.The butler trembled, clasping her hands tightly together. In this situation, she was held responsible for it. The maid had fulfilled her duty by bringing the food."I'm sorry, we truly have no idea about this. I have searched every corner of his room, but I couldn't find anything suspicious."Jethro frowned. Who could have infiltrated his mansion to capture Clement? How could a child like Clement, despite his strength, jump from the second floor and land safely?"Fine, your apology won't solve anything. Just do your job, and I'll send someone to find Clement."As Jethro glanced at the tired expression of the housekeeper, he felt even more worried. He knew that recently, Jethro had been unable to sleep, and no
Chapter 106 In this urgent situation, Gemma was too distraught to ask for anyone's help. She was trembling to the point where it was difficult to steer the wheel, luckily there was no one on the road at that moment. Only the flickering streetlights illuminated the road, creating an eerie and gloomy scene. It was even more terrifying than the horror movies she had watched. "Clement, wait for mommy!" Gemma focused on the road ahead and accelerated quickly, not caring if an accident could occur. Her son was in danger, and if she were just a second too late, everything would be completely different. Suddenly, her phone rang, and Harvey was calling. His bodyguard had noticed something unusual about Gemma and reported it to Harvey. "Harvey? What's going on? I don't have time to talk to you right now." Gemma hurriedly spoke and immediately hung up the phone. Harvey was still unable to say anything when Gemma ended the call. He was worried and disappointed by her attitude. He quickly ch
