you don’t let me go!”

As soon as he let her go, she got off the bed and left the room in his slippers. She covered
her face and did not greet the others.
Once was gone, David grinned and joked, “We came to check on you because we heard
your were hurt, but it looks like our visit was unnecessary.”

anymore. Ryan, who had been silent all this while, suddenly asked, “Have you made up
with Silvia?”
“Yeah.”

said. nothing.
He thought he had a chance, but fate had played a cruel joke on him.

“Since you’re okay, we’ll go home.”
After Ryan and David left, Neil gave Curtis a call.
“Find out who instructed Leroy Reed to bomb MY Corporation!”

Sigwald’s lawyer promptly set up a meeting with Leroy. When Leroy saw Sigwald, he
remained
calm.
The moment he saw the bomba
off, he realized that Sigwald no longer saw him as a brother. Despite that, he considered
how Sigwald had previously settled his gambling debt and chose. not to expose him. If he
did, there would be no one to get him out. His heartless daughter, Dulcie, certainly would
not care about his well–being-
“Sigwald, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you.”
After a brief chat, they reached an agreement. Sigwald would find a way to get Leroy out,
Leroy would not reveal Sigwald’s involvement.

“What did you want to talk about, Uncle Sigwald?”
“Have a seat.”
Sigwald sighed and seemed genuinely concerned. “Dulcie, I know that your dad has been
in a tough spot since his company went bankrupt. He might have done some bad things,
but he’s still your father.”
Dulcie’s eyes remained cold. “Uncle Sigwald, what are you trying to say? Just cut to the
chase.” “I’ve heard about what your dad did at MY Corporation. Luckily, no one died.
“Since you’re on good terms with Miss Pond, why don’t you talk to her on your dad’s
behalf? Ask her to go easy on him. After all, he’s over fifty. If he ends up in jail, he might
not live long enough to get out.”
Dulcie sneered in response.

and you want me to beg for leniency? I’m not that shameless!”
Seeing that Dulcie was getting up to leave, Sigwald quickly said, “Dulcie, you don’t care
about your dad anymore?”
Her expression was cold as she said, “Ever since he started drinking, he has abused me
and my mother and borrowed money to gamble. He isn’t my dad anymore.”
If Leroy had not constantly gambled and beaten her mother when he lost money, her
mother would not have become so desperate that she committed suicide.
When Leroy went to MY Corporation with the bomb and threatened to kill Silvia if she
refused to give him money, she lost any remaining affection for him.
“He’s still your dad no matter what!”
Dulcie left without a word.
Sigwald’s expression turned vicious as he watched her leave. He took out a recorder from
under the table.
He had no intention of getting Leroy out of prison. After all, Leroy would only gamble once
he was released, so it might be better if he was locked up. At least then he could have a
few years of peace. However, he could not bring himself to play the bad guy.
If Leroy knew that no one else cared about him except Sigwald, he would not dare expose
him.
