Chapter 19
Madam Sophie couldn't bear it anymore.
She couldn't understand a thing and nothing made sense to her.She immediately took a step forward and said, "Maybe there was a misunderstanding here.We're not the ones who are at fault here.Perhaps, it's Leonard's inexperience that deceived us!!!"
This was part of their plan. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
They have to use someone to take the blame for them.
So, once the matter was exposed, they would never admit that they embezzled that amount of money.
"My wife was right, Brother.Believe me! I didn't do anything wrong.I was wholeheartedly thinking about our company.For the sake of those million profits, I broke a leg to find a suitable one for the project.I gave all the money to him.So how would I know if he was lying to me?"
He dropped to his knees on the floor before hugging Master Langston's leg.
He pleaded to him and cried miserably.
Olivia watched them from afar.
Blank and coldly; her eyes were filled with satisfaction.
In terms of acting, the three of them were all drama geniuses.
She shook her head.
Then Master Langston's brows furrowed after he looked at his brother on the floor.
His expression went blank and pursed his lips without a single word.
He was so annoyed.
And after seeing his response his brother burst into tears.
He was begging for mercy in various ways.
"Brother, have you forgotten? When I was young, I saved you twice.You said that I am the most important brother in your life, and you will always believe in me.Have you forgotten all of this?"
As soon as these words were spoken by Donald, Master Langston tried to abandon his anger considerably towards his brother.
Olivia stood.
She didn't have to guess.
To her father, these words were simply a gold medal for avoiding death.
It was true that Master Langston valued affection and righteousness this much.
There was no doubt that everything Donald stated was true.
Her uncle saved her father twice when they were a child.
Her uncle jumped down to save her father from drowning and they both almost died together.
And when they encountered a wolf on the mountain, it was Donald who confronted the wolf and ordered Master Langston to run for his life.
That's why Master Langston didn't forget about this brother when he got rich and even if he already had a family.
For Donald, there was no limit to his tolerance.
That is why Olivia took the time to know the sinister intentions of the Peterson family, but she was not prepared to expose them directly.
Not yet.
As expected, Master Langston let out a deep sigh, "From tomorrow onwards, you don't have to go to the company.I will handle this matter by myself"
The implication was that he would take care of this matter, and Master Langston would probably pay out all of this with his own money to fill the 60 million hole.
Donald also knew that other shareholders would not expose him easily, even though Master Langston forgave him for his mistake.
The position of deputy procurement director of the company could only be removed.
However, it is the best result.
This time, things were over.
Before returning to the company, Master Langston stopped and greeted his wife, "bye."
The atmosphere here was very strange and the servants of the place did not dare to speak.
Madam Enya rubbed her temples in frustration.
After noticing, Olivia instructed a servant to boil a cup of hot milk for her mother.
She then helped Madam Enya and said, "Mom, I'm going to lead you back to your room"
"Alright" Madam Enya nodded.
"And, Ah! Oscar and Olivia, it's getting late.You two should go to bed early.You still have class the day after tomorrow”
The siblings nodded and answered, "Yes." to their mother.
After sending Madam Enya back to her room, Olivia also brought his younger brother upstairs.
As soon as they went upstairs Oscar stumped his feet, "Daddy is too kind to them.I thought that he would kick them out!"
Olivia laughed.
"You know him.Just get used to how kind our father is."
As she spoke, she casually tapped on her phone.
Luckily, Oscar was so angry that he didn't even pay attention to her.
Otherwise, he would find out that Olivia was editing a video.
And that video would be sent anonymously to Madam Sophie.
Seeing that Master Langston had surrendered so easily, Madam Sophie felt proud in her heart.
She even patted Donald's shoulder and happily said, "You did a great job."
Maggie did not say anything in front of her parents, and now that there were no outsiders, she could not help but nod and praise her Dad, "Dad's moves are too brilliant! I can't bear it at all!"
The tears in the play were all true tears, and it was true to say that the whole scene was perfect! Donald listened to the two women's left and right chatter and said irritably, "Shut up, don’t say a word anymore!"
Madam Sophie and Maggie thought that Donald was just pretending so they ignored his actions and set it aside.
Without knowing that, his tears and grief were all real.
Madam Sophie became furious.
She grabbed Donald's arm and said, "What happened to you today? You scolded me again and again.I will no longer argue with you for the sake of money.Give it to me and I'll take care of it!"
However, Donald shook her off and went to his room.
Without saying anything, he slammed the door directly in response.
"You!"
Madam Sophie was so angry that she wanted to chase after him, but she was stopped by Maggie.
"Mom, don't be impulsive"
After all, this was the Clements Clan, and the ones that should be restrained had to be restrained.
"Don't worry, my dad won't spend it randomly.He will eventually take out this money.So Mom, calm down.At least give dad some time and respect..."
After hearing Maggie's advice, Madam Sophie calmed down.
At this moment, her phone rang.
Madam Sophie subconsciously opened it and saw that it was a pitch-black video.
‘What trash.” She said to her mind.
Originally, she wanted to delete it, but somehow, she was so curious that she played it.
There was a hotel, and there were three people in the queen bed.
There were two seductive and gorgeous unfamiliar women, as well as a man familiar to her.
The man was his husband.
‘Donald?’ Madam Sophie was instantly stunned as if a basin of cold water had poured a chill into her dreams of the future.
"This might be the reason why that bastard fought me when it comes to money!"
Madam Sophie was so angry that she was so out of breath, "This man took the money and brought a woman out! No wonder why he didn't return home last night and said that he was socializing.When in fact, he wasn't! I cannot believe your father, Maggie.He slept with another woman than me!"
