“Michelle, you...”
Naomi and Luna looked at Michelle in disbelief, shocked that she had agreed to Owen's request.
“Luna, Naomi, I'm sorry. I come from the countryside, and my younger siblings need to attend school. I
can't be without having an income,” Michelle turned and apologized to Luna and Naomi.
With that, she walked over to Owen.
“Michelle, come back! We can help you with your siblings' tuition fees. Owen is just toying with you and
he will never genuinely care for you. Don't destroy your life!” Naomi called out to Michelle.
Michelle hesitated but didn't turn back.
“The Sherlock family can barely save yourselves. How can you help me? Owen is not someone we can
afford to offend. I advise you both not to struggle in vain. Do as he says; it's not that big of a deal.”
Instead of turning back, Michelle even tried to persuade Naomi and Luna to join her in pleasing Owen.
Owen was delighted and decided to keep her close for the time being.
Moving forward, he continued to put pressure on Naomi and Luna.
“Come, darling. Once you're with me, you'll live a life of luxury!” Owen held Michelle's waist as she
obediently approached him, his face beaming with pride.
“Thank you, Owen. How about we leave now? I'll help persuade them later,” Michelle said, blushing
and gritting her teeth.
“All right, I'll give them two more days. You help me persuade them. They can't blame me for being
harsh if they're still so stubborn after that. Let's go. I'll reward you today!” Owen laughed heartily and
left the café with Michelle.
As they left, Michelle glanced back at Naomi and Luna with mixed emotions.
Naomi slumped back in her seat, her heart heavy with sorrow and unwillingness.
Luna wanted to comfort her but didn't know how to begin.
In high spirits, Owen led Michelle out of the café, got in his car, and took out his phone to book a hotel
room.
But before he could dial, Liam's call came through.
Owen had no choice but to answer the call first.
“B*stard, tell me honestly, who have you offended lately?” Liam's furious voice came through the phone
when Owen answered.
“Dad, what's going on? I haven't offended anyone recently. Why are you so angry?” Owen asked,
bewildered.
“You're still pretending, huh? Our company has been seized, and the wealthiest man in Xenhall, Lothar
Hightower, came to our house personally. He said you'd angered someone you shouldn't have. If you
can't make that person forgive you by tomorrow, the Sunderland family will go bankrupt. I order you to
apologize to him immediately...”
Liam was even angrier when his son refused to admit his mistake, so he started roaring through the
phone.
Owen was completely stunned by his dad's tirade, especially when he mentioned their company being
seized and Lothar, the wealthiest man in Xenhall, paying a personal visit to their family.
Though Xenhall was not a large city, Lothar held considerable influence.
In the past, when the second-largest family in Dellmoor, the Fields family, developed a new drug, the
Hightower family wanted to take them over.
However, for some unknown reason, the Hightower family eventually gave up.
These instances only served to show how powerful the Hightower family was.
But such an influential figure was willing to act as a pawn for someone else.
Who is behind all this, and what formidable means does he possess? The mere thought sent shivers
down Owen's spine.
