NovelOnlineChapter 1121: Confused and anxious, Foley felt the weight of his betrayal toward Neil, yet Connor hadn't given any assurance of protection. It was as if he were teetering on a tightrope, with no safety beneath him, poised to fall into an abyss at any moment.
Lacking the courage to ask any more questions, Foley rose to his feet, gave a respectful bow to Connor, and said, "Uncle Connor, I'll be heading back now. Good night." Connor merely nodded, offering no further words.
Once Foley had departed, Domenic reentered the study. "Mr. Daniels, how shall we proceed regarding Foley?" "Just let him be," Connor instructed coldly. "He was raised under my observation.
