Chapter 497
“Conner, you’ve really let me down today.” Henry’s eyes brimmed with disappointment as he stared at Conner, but Conner knew Henry was just looking for an excuse to sever ties for good.
“Mr. Ramoz, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be going. Instead of being disappointed in me, you should focus on Ms. Ramoz and Mr. Brooks,” Conner replied sternly.
Without waiting for a response, he turned to leave.
Bailey quickly followed. “Mr. Jefferson, are we really just going to walk awayhi
“why? Should we stay to watch the drama unfold?” Conner’s expression was grim
Bailey suggested, “Even though Ms. Ramoz fainted, we could still push for a DNA test. Once Mr. Ramez finds out
“Idiot! Don’t you get it? Henry already knows Clara isn’t his daughter! That old tox wouldn’t acknowledge his biological daughter in front of everyone!”
What the
Balley was in disbelief. How could this be possible?
Conner snapped, “That cunning old man is way shrewder than I am! There’s no way he would acknowledge a prostitute who went to jail for soliciting in front of everyone!” Bailey couldn’t believe that Henry, who had always wanted to find his biological daughter, would have turned a deat ear to her suffering over the years.
Conner had thought Henry was an easy target, but he was wrong. How could the head of a large corporation, who had survived in Seathburn City for so many years, be so easily manipulated?
When family and interests clashed, Henry ruthlessly abandoned family ties. After all, Conner was just an outsider.
But this time, even Henry didn’t foresee being manipulated by Sergio, And now, Sergio not only didn’t announce his engagement to clarabut also chose to remarry!
y Marve.
Due to Clara’s situation, Henry’s relationship with Conner had already soured. It was certain that once Nathalie was released, Henry would use the opportunity to cut ties with him completely
In the end, Henry ruined his relationship with Conner and failed to gain Sergia’s favor too
“Find out what’s going on with Sergio and Maeve! How did they reconcile without any hint of it? There’s definitely something fishy here.”
“Yes, Mr. Jefferson,” Bailey replied
“Wait!
“Mr. Jefferson, is there anything else?
“Take care of Nathalie. She still has her uses.”
“But.. Mr. Ramoz doesn’t plan on acknowledging her. How could she be of any use?”
“Blood is thicker than water. Just keep her around. She might come in handy in the future.”
“Yes, I’ll handle it right away.”
Conner glanced back at the Brooks estate entrance and said coldly, “Sergio, you’ve given me such a gift today. I’ll be sure to return the favor someday!”
Inside Brooks Estate, Henry grabbed Clara and went upstairs to find Sergio
Maeve said indifferently, “Handle your own matters. I’m going downstairs.”
“Okay,” Sergio responded.
