Clarence looked unhinged as he attempted to hurl himself at Kingsley.
It was Henry who stopped him.
“Clarence, we’re here to discuss the company with Reene. Set that aside for now and focus on the
matter at hand.”
However, Clarence was seeing red.
“Dad, Mia has been starving herself for two days now ever since the Windsors broke off the
engagement! We lost our chance to have a marriage alliance with the Windsors! How can you let him
off for that?”
Henry’s expression turned a little vicious when he heard Clarence’s retort. “What makes you think I’m
letting him off, but now is not the time for this! Once we get our hands on Neveah, we can take our time
to settle the score with him!”
Just like Clarence, Henry loathed Kingsley with every fiber of his being!
The day before yesterday, they received a message from the Windsors right after Coliree Group’s pre-
bid conference.
The Windsors had decided to break off the engagement between Ethan and Mia!
The entire Wynn Familywas stupefied when they heard this.
Things had been fine all this while, so why did Ethan suddenly change his mind and break off his
engagement to Mia?
The Wynns were not the only ones who did not understand what was happening. Even the Windsor
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfamily’s head of household, Jeremy, did not know the true reason either.
Ethan did not have the guts to tell his father that he had offended someone from Coliree Group.
He gave the excuse of wanting to focus on his education by staying on in Mittera to continue his
studies.
Truth be told, Jeremy was unimpressed by a second-class family like the Wynns.
He had also been fuming over the fact that Reene won the bid for Coliree Group’s project.
Therefore, when Ethan informed him of his decision, he did not give it a second thought before sending
someone off to deliver a formal letter notifying the Wynns about it.
Clarence, Henry, and all the other Wynns were caught entirely off-guard by it!
After giving it a lot of thought, they came to the conclusion that Kingsley must have offended Ethan,
which led to Ethan breaking off the engagement out of anger.
This had to be the reason, as Ethan and Mia had gotten along just fine before the Foxes’ banquet!
Kingsley had to be the only person who would dare to offend Ethan.
Clarence’s eyes were burning as he went over the sequence of events.
He roared at Kingsley, “Hey punk! I’m going to make you pay for this with your life! I won’t let you get
away with this!”
Alex seized the opportunity to fan the flames. “That’s right! Reene, do you know how upset Mia has
been because of this guy? Do you know how much damage he has caused to our family? He’s from
the same lousy orphanage as you, so you better take responsibility for this! The only way you can
make it up to us is by giving us Neveah!”
As soon as he said that, the other Wynns quickly voiced their support.
“Exactly. You and that bum are the reason why our family has lost the support of the Windsors!”
“Reene, if you still have some decency in you, then hand over Neveah! Don’t make this any uglier than
it has to be!”
“That’s right. In any case, you’re injured now. How are you going to take responsibility for stalling the
project with Coliree Group? Hurry up and hand over control of the company!”
Reene slowly lost all color in her face as she listened to their incessant demands.
She never would have thought that the Wynns would not show any concern for her despite her serious
injuries. Not only that, they were openly trying to snatch her company away from her!
“Cough… cough… Aren’t… aren’t you all going too far?”
Reene’s eyes were filled with hurt and disappointment. “We’ve been family for nine years. How can you
treat me like this?”
“Hah! Who are you calling family?” Alex snorted derisively. “You’re just an orphan. What makes you
think we consider you family?”
Clarence added indifferently, “Alex is right. Our family was kind enough to take in an orphan like you,
so you should be grateful! Everything you have right now, including Neveah, was all given to you by our
family!”
“You owe everything to us, and all we’re doing now is asking you to return what rightfully belongs to us!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAre you trying to deny us our right?”
“You… cough…”
Reene got so mad that she started having a coughing fit.
She ended up tugging at her wound and breaking out in cold sweat from the pain.
Her sweat trickled down her pale face which was contorted in agony.
Kingsley was brimming with fury once he saw the pain Reene was in.
The Wynns had outstayed their welcome and were beginning to get out of hand with their foolishness!
Kingsley narrowed his eyes as he stared at Henry and asked icily, “Mr. Wynn, I recall placing a bet with
you during your family dinner. You haven’t forgotten about it yet, I hope?”
Henry blanched at his words.
Of course he remembered!
During the Wynn Familydinner, Kingsley made a bet with him to see whether it was Neveah or Clark
Corporation that would first strike a deal with Coliree Group.
The outcome was clear for all to see!
Neveah won the bid for a 300 million contract with Coliree Group.
As for the Wynns, they did not even get to attend the pre-bid conference!
“According to the terms of our bet, Mr. Wynn, you should be handing over all of the Wynn family’s
shares in Clark Corporation to Reene instead of forcing her to hand over Neveah to you!” Kingsley
declared emphatically.
