Chapter 238 She Should Be Put In Jail
If he had gone to take care of the mess in Romdale, perhaps Yuliana would not have been kidnapped. Even if she
had been kidnapped, he could have rescued her first instead of feeling helpless thousands of miles away. By the
time he arrived by her side, everything was over. Even the child had been born.
At the thought of this, Christopher’s eyes darkened again, and his angular face looked a little cold. Kendrick knew
what he was thinking. After watching him remain silent for a few seconds, he said, “What happened to Yuliana this
time was an accident, and it won’t happen again in the future. You don’t have to worry about Romdale for now, but
you should be aware that you are part of the Solace family. If something happens to me one day, who do you think
should shoulder the burden of the Solace family?”
Christopher’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he glanced at him. “Don’t play the emotional card with me. I’m not
falling for that.”
The atmosphere was getting heavy.
Kendrick looked away from his face and said, “I don’t care if you fall for it or not, but you have to remember that
you are not only Yuliana’s husband but also a son of the Solace family. Since childhood, you have enjoyed
everything the Solace family has given you, and you have a responsibility and obligation to do your part for the
family.”
Christopher sneered at his words, “Ken, I see you’re getting old for speaking in such a rigid and cliché way.”
Christopher thought, “What family? What responsibility and obligation?”
These were the things that Kendrick cared about. He never cared about them.
Christopher’s words seemed to evoke a sense of nostalgia in Kendrick’s eyes, and his lips curled slightly. His tone
softened as he replied, “Maybe.”
When he was young, Zachary instilled in him how to be a good heir, to run a big family and a family business, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe unwritten “system” of the Solace family. These things had long been ingrained in him through daily repetition.
But later, he had more exposure to things and gained a bit of deviation in his thinking. He doubted whether those
things were really right for a moment.
He also tried to change the “system” but later found out it did not work.
These “systems” were deeply ingrained in him and every member of the Solace family. Once they were toppled,
everything would fall apart, which would only accelerate the downfall of the Solace family.
Kendrick roused himself and looked back at Christopher. “Did Layla tell you about last night’s incident?”
Christopher’s eyes turned cold again when he heard this, and his lips curled into a cold smile as he replied, “Yes.”
Layla had briefly told him about it last night.
“How do you plan to handle this matter?” asked Kendrick.
Christopher frowned and looked at him, then gave a light, dismissive laugh and said, “How to handle it? Just handle
it as it should be. Kidnapping is illegal, isn’t it? Of course, she should be put in jail!”
At this moment, the Ziegler family was already in chaos.
Last night, the police informed Quincy about the situation, and she immediately rushed to the police station to see
Margaret. Margaret told Quincy everything, but with Quincy’s ability, she could not help Margaret get out of trouble.
Previously, Quincy could not even get her released from detention, let alone when she had committed a crime and
needed to go to jail.
However, Margaret was her only daughter. Margaret’s life would be completely ruined if she were to spend a few
years in jail. Nobody would be willing to marry someone who had been in prison, especially among influential and
prestigious families.
She could not let her daughter’s life be ruined like that.
After braving her fear, Quincy told Waylon about the situation. Although Waylon was angry and frustrated because
of the incident at Zachary’s birthday banquet, he could not bear to see Margaret go to jail.
It was still because of the Solace family.
The Solace residence publicly humiliated him, and now his daughter was going to jail. If he did not stand up to them
now, he could not continue to survive in this social circle.
After running around all day, Waylon tried using his connections to get his daughter out. However, among those
with whom he had good relationships in the past, none were willing to help him, but they did not want to upset him
either.
They told him tactfully that there was pressure from higher-ups and they could not act without authorization.
Waylon could understand the meaning behind their words.
He came back reeking of alcohol, and Quincy’s eyes lit up when she saw him. She greeted him immediately,
“Honey, how’s it going? Can our daughter come out now?”
Waylon threw her a cold glance and slapped her across the face. “You taught our daughter so well! You only know
how to come up with petty schemes all day long. You were too smart for your own good, and in the end, you raised
her badly!”
Quincy’s ears buzzed from the slap, but she ignored the pain and spoke eagerly and kindly. “It’s my fault. It’s all my
fault. But Marge is also your daughter. Are you really going to watch her life get ruined? Honey, you used to love
her so much. Can you bear to let her suffer in prison?”
The relationship between Waylon and his children had always been distant. Otherwise, he would not have let Harry
go unchecked after knowing he was his biological son.
However, Margaret was the only child he truly loved and cared for.
He shot a gloomy look at Quincy for a while, shook off her hand, and walked away.
Quincy became anxious instantly upon seeing that. “Honey, you can’t leave Marge like this. If you don’t help her,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe’ll be doomed.”
Waylon went out after ignoring her and headed for the main building on the other side.
There lived the patriarch of the Ziegler family, George Ziegler.
When Waylon arrived, Harry was also there, talking with George.
When George noticed Waylon and Quincy come in one after another with strange expressions, he looked at them
and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Harry sat at the side, lowered his eyes, and picked up the coffee cup to take a sip.
Waylon’s face was stern, and he did not speak immediately. Quincy looked at George, then at Waylon, and finally
glanced at Harry from the corner of her eye.
Currently, besides George, the most powerful member of the Ziegler family was Harry. From the beginning of the
year, George had gradually stopped meddling in the affairs of the Ziegler family and had shown clear intentions to
hand over the management of the Ziegler family to Harry.
Therefore, Harry’s position in the Ziegler family was even higher than Waylon’s.
Quincy had disliked Harry all the while. Although he was an illegitimate child and was not recognized by Waylon, his
abilities were beyond doubt, which made her daughter, Margaret, seem too mediocre. Waylon did not like this
particular son. Naturally, Quincy had to be on the same page as him.
But inside, Quincy was somewhat afraid of Harry.
When Quincy saw that Waylon was holding his breath and refusing to speak, she knelt on the ground, crying and
begging. “Dad, you have to save your granddaughter!”
George glanced at the woman on the ground but did not respond. Instead, he looked at Waylon and asked, “is this
why you came?”
Waylon was stunned for a moment. “You knew all about it?”
George snorted coldly. “What can that bitch do other than be an embarrassment and laughingstock of the Ziegler
family? Is it necessary to care whether she lives or dies?”
Quincy’s face went white when she heard this.
