Chapter 128 You Reap What You Sow
He wanted to laugh at himself for being such a fool. Idiot! Why did marry a woman like her? If he had
held himself back at the time, then he would not have been tied up with her and could have been with
Gianna instead. If he had not married that woman, he would not be this humiliated today and be so
blatantly exposed as the husband of a cheating wife.
If only he had not listened to her and consolidated their companies through a partnership to celebrate
their wedding anniversary. But those were simply what-ifs that were not real, and right now, he was
bombarded with one truth after the other. At that moment, his secretary called to report, “President
Riley, several people from the technical department have resigned and some of our major partner
companies want to cancel their contracts with us! They’re willing to pay for the damages for breaching
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe contract. A few of our suppliers also called and said they wouldn’t be doing business with the Riley
Group anymore! What do we do?”
Out of those three things, not one of them was good news. Adrian ended the call. What do we do? How
should I know that? He just felt like laughing. Florence saw him laughing like a maniac and quickly
walked over. “What’s wrong with you? Why are you still laughing after such a humiliating event? Think
of a way to keep this news under control!” He looked at her and scoffed, “That’s Silas. If he
purposefully released that piece of information, do you think someone like me can still keep it under
control?” She was suddenly silenced by his words. “It’s all her fault! That cursed wench who dared to
accuse someone else of having no shame when she is the most shameless! She’s incapable and a
troublemaker! You better divorce her now. Leaving a woman like her is no big deal!” He smirked. “Did
you think she was coming back? Everyone knows that Silas has made Riley Company his target now.
No one would dare to oppose him and work with the Riley Company anymore. We’re in a precarious
situation. She’ll be dumb to come back.” “Very well then. My son is attractive and rich. Is there a need
to worry that you won’t find a nice lady?” After a light chuckle, he did not speak anymore. Mom sure is
optimistic. But Florence felt rather apologetic. “It’s my fault. I really didn’t know Silas was that powerful.
I couldn’t let my anger go that day.” He leaned his head back in despair. “It’s okay. It wouldn’t have
made a difference anyway. I’m just getting what I deserve. There’s no one else I can blame for this!”
She probed, “Why don’t you reach out to Gianna? After all, you had a thing once and the person who
wronged her was Kaylee, not you. To be honest, you’re also a victim here. Since Silas cares so much
about Gianna, he will listen to her if she’s the one begging him for mercy.” He let out a burst of mocking
laughter. “Where would I find the face to ask Gianna for help!” At the same time, Kaylee was also
facing the same circumstances. Gael was worried that Silas would target Aubrey Company, so he
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏminsisted that Kaylee apologized to Gianna. Kaylee’s eyes were filled with resentment as she rebuked,
“What do I have to apologize to her for? Dad, can’t you see what she has done to me?”
He retorted, “If you didn’t provoke her first, Gianna wouldn’t have been this resolute.” She persisted
with tears in her eyes, “That’s because she wrongly accused me of plagiarizing her work at the major
fashion contest. She beat my mother-in-law at school and even had Silas expel my son. Don’t you see
all the times she bullied me? All I did was yell a few words at her over the phone, but I didn’t cause her
any substantal harm. What did she do? My wedding anniversary was turned into a joke, and Adrian
and I are going to get divorced, but I have to apologize to her. Dad, you’re my biological father. Do you
have to be this biased?”
“She did not reveal anything false. If you didn’t actually do it, even if she wanted to hurt you, she
couldn’t have done so. It’s all because you have no self-respect. Can you still blame someone else?”
