Chapter 381 You Asked For It

Savannah immediately called Charles after she hung up. "Charles, I was right. It's Richard! That b*stard is now alive and kicking." Charles heaved a sigh of relief, "We're lucky it's Richard. Anyways, how is Raymond doing now?" "He said he's alright. I offered to see him, but he refused. It's better this way. I'm already tired from acting for all these years," Savannah replied annoyedly. "Hold up, aren't you supposed to be a caring mother? You should at least pay him a visit to show your concern rather than just a call. Don't let them suspect you." "I wasn't thinking so much just now. I'll give him another call later," Savannah only then realized she indeed didn't sound like how a mother would react in that situation. "Go see him now. I just got the news that Archer is in B City." "What?" Savannah was shocked. "When was it?" "I don't know. But he went to see Dad, and the

Chapter 382 It Must Be Savannah

Savannah wasn't expecting such bad news. It was true that Savannah didn't want Archer to love Raymond, but this wasn't what she had in mind. Besides Archer's talent, his wealth was also one of the reasons she married him. If Archer never gave Raymond a chance to work in the company, all her effort before now would go wasted. Savannah wasn't going to let this happen. "Dad, what should I do now?" she asked immediately. "How would I know?" Hayden vented out at her. "Dad, you need to help Raymond. I know I deserve this, but Raymond has nothing to do with my plans. For the sake of Raymond, please," Savannah was using the last bit of sympathy in Hayden to help her. Indeed, Hayden only called her because he pitied Raymond. He laughed coldly, "All of these wouldn't have happened if it's not because of you. Talk to your father-in-law. Archer may be managing the company, but he couldn't be making all of the decisions.

Chapter 383 A Clean Conscience Makes A Soft Pillow

"Why do you say so?" William didn't seem surprised. "Savannah hated your mom. I heard her and Dixie, her maid, cursing your mother, calling her a b*tch who stole her father from her. Savannah wanted your mom to die." Ronald thought his words would anger William, but he was disappointed. William was very calm. He only looked at Ronald and said flatly, "You're only guessing. Now, tell me about Savannah's pregnancy and her baby." The lack of emotion from William only gave Ronald chills. So, he had no choice but to carry on. "Not many people knew about Savannah's pregnancy. The Howards' bodyguards did quite a good job of guarding her. Besides, she also rarely appeared in public. At least I had never seen her before she gave birth. I think she was afraid that Archer might try to end her pregnancy with force." "I see... If so, I assume you know nothing else about her at that time?" William asked, giving Ron

Chapter 384 What Is So Important About Reputation?

In the presidential suite of Wolf Group Hotel, Gavin stared at Archer in surprise, "What are you doing here in B city?" "Business trip," Archer simply replied. "What business? Don't you already have someone employed for this specific reason?" "I'm planning to set up a company here, and I'm already partway through the process." Although confused, Gavin asked with a soft smile, "Really? Are you planning to put Raymond in charge of this company as a practice?" "No," Archer shook his head. "I'm planning to send him abroad." "What?" Gavin raised his voice. "Why? He has already been abroad for so many years!" "Do I still need to explain myself?" Archer looked at Gavin coldly. "Don't you remember what I told you when you insisted on me marrying Savannah?" Of course, Gavin didn't forget. When Archer agreed to marry Savannah, he had made it very clear t

Chapter 385 I Have Been Dreaming About It

Archer was incredibly cold and resentful when he looked at Savannah. Raymond, unable to take it anymore, started yelling at Archer, "Why didn't you just kill me if you hate me so much!? You shouldn't have let me be born!" "Do you really think I want you to be born?" Archer shifted his cold gaze away from Raymond to Savannah. "I have been dreaming of killing you ever since I knew of your existence. It's such a shame I failed to do that." "Archer! Are you out of your mind? How can you say such things to Raymond?" Gavin's blood boiled. "Get lost! Get out of here now!" Upon hearing that, Archer stepped away without any hesitation, leaving Raymond shaking in anger. Gavin reached out to put his hand on Raymond's shoulder and said, "Raymond, don't be bothered about what your dad said. He didn't mean it." "No! I'm not going to just forget that. No father would ever say such things to his child, so there must be a reason he's telling m

Chapter 386 Something Suspicious

As Savannah turned around the corner towards Charles's villa, she saw Elizabeth's car from the opposite road. Their cars drove past each other in a flash. Elizabeth was basically speeding through Savannah with no intention of greeting Savannah at all. On the other hand, Savannah was enraged. Even though she despised Elizabeth, she might have been annoyed if Elizabeth stopped to greet her, but the disrespect Elizabeth showed for not even bothering to slow down had driven Savannah up the wall. She already had a lot of pent-up anger from Archer, but now she was absolutely exasperated. If she could stop Elizabeth's car, Savannah would have definitely done that to give Elizabeth a lesson. When she pulled up at Charles's front door, she saw his car as well. So, she headed straight to his study as soon as she entered the villa. However, she heard low moans from the study room right as she got to the second floor. Savannah's face turned ugly, and she realized why

Chapter 387 She Could Be Natalie

When William didn't respond, Marcus, who was right next to him, exclaimed, "Did she see you?" Triumphantly, Bobby shook his head and replied, "Of course not! It takes a lot for someone to catch me in action." "So, what happened? What did you find out?" William asked. "Miss Barnbook came up to the attic after she returned. There was no place to hide in the attic, so I climbed out of the window and held onto its edge, hiding right outside the window. I heard her searching for something, and then she stopped to call someone. She was comforting the person on the other side of the line, telling them to be patient for a little while more and that she would be sending some medication soon. After she hung up, she found whatever she was looking for and left. I didn't want to stay there for too long, so I quickly left her house as well." "Are you sure she didn't know you were there?" William asked. "I'm dead sur

Chapter 388 Dream Big, Aim High

Not long after Marcus left, a pasty-faced Raymond entered the presidential suite, and he collapsed onto the sofa, looking almost half-dead. Startled, William walked toward him and lightly gave him a nudge, "What's wrong? Are you sick?" "I'm fine. I just didn't know how unwanted I am until today." "What on earth happened?" Raymond groaned, "My dad says I'm an eyesore to him and wants me to go abroad immediately. He even said that he wouldn't leave a penny to me. Turns out I'm just a product of an elaborate scheme, and he has been plotting to get rid of me ever since he knew of my existence. It's ridiculous how my existence has become a source of grievance to him!" William didn't know how to respond to that. He could only imagine how deeply hurt Raymond must have been by Archer's direct proclamation of his hate towards Savannah and himself. Raymond was innocent in this case, and Archer had gone too far by punishi

Chapter 389 Lucian Isn't as Simple as She Seemed

Archer was shocked, "Who let him leave? Where did he go?" "They're being very discreet over there. I can't get more information," Lamont plopped down on a seat. "I'm guessing that it has something to do with Sir William because Ronald disappeared a few hours after Sir William visited him. Otherwise, there aren't any other explanations." "Why would he want to do that?" Archer frowned. He couldn't figure out why William would help Ronald get out of the detention. "Does Valeria know about this?" "She definitely doesn't know. She hates Ronald's guts and has been waiting for him to be punished. If she knew that Sir William had helped Ronald to escape his sentence, he'd definitely face her wrath." Lamont replied. He, too, couldn't comprehend why William would do such a thing. "President Saunders, do you think Sir William did this on purpose because he was bitter about his breakup with Valeria?" Archer p

Chapter 390 Fading Memories

Valeria was at work when she got a Whatsapp text from Gavin, saying that he was around the Central South Building, inviting her for lunch. A little surprised, she went out to see what was going on. Gavin was all smiles when he saw her. Going up to her, he said, "Valeria, I came all the way here to buy you lunch." "You don't need to do that," Valeria shook her head lightly. "I'm already here anyway. Accept my offer, will you?" Losing lost to the tender smile on Gavin's face, Valeria finally agreed after a moment of hesitation. As they were crossing the road, Gavin accidentally slipped. Valeria was quick to hold him, "Sir, be careful!" "Your knees are weaker as you're older, you know?" Gavin laughed as he held on to Valeria. And it surprised Valeria that Gavin was okay with her holding him. Remaining in that posture, the two of them walked across the road to the Chinese restaurant.
