Chapter 185
Roderick felt his forehead instantly covered with sweat as soon as he saw the message.There was no doubt that Kate had a great interest in Roderick. Given that, no matter what Roderick did to her, she wouldn’t even get angry. Instead, she would find a way to settle the matter brilliantly.Roderick had promised to come and pick her up at the junction, but she hadn’t seen a light from him after a couple of minutes. Wasn’t she supposed to get angry about it? With the thought that Roderick didn’t value her.But not Kate. She had different thoughts about the matter instead.She felt she was the one at fault for showing up at Roderick’s place unannounced. Given that, he would have to hurry quickly to tidy his home to receive her.Kate was the type who believed strongly in her instinct. Then, she thought of putting her instinct to use and followed it to find Roderick’s place.To her, it was just a form of adventure. She had relied on her instinct to locate places in the past, although not e

Roderick's brows lit up instantly, as he had never expected the lady to pay so much attention to Tony's appearance.Naturally, Tony had such a frightening and overbearing gaze. This was because his being had been intensely shaped by the warfront lifestyle.Tony is a lieutenant who has fought in several deadly wars and come out alive. It wasn't surprising that he carried such a scary gaze.It was the result of the blood and death he had confronted on the war front line. He was now at the point where he didn't fear death, but death feared him.Imagine what the gaze of such a person would look like?Roderick hadn't said anything when the lady's voice came through again. "You haven't said anything, Roderick. Don't you think staying around such a friend is quite dangerous?"Then, he waved his hands in the air as he understood the lady's concern. "I understand your concern, Mrs. Dalton. But Tony's not a dangerous person. His looks might be scary, but he has a good heart."These are some of

The lady was surprised to hear that. She was aware of Roderick's financial capability and was worried that he must have inconvenienced himself to make such a provision.Then, she turned to ask him, "Roderick, I hope this didn't cost you too much and won't affect you? I have a few thousand dollars with me. You can have it to cover part of the bill."She was about to reach out for the cash when Roderick quickly stopped her."That's not necessary, Mrs. Dalton. Keep the money with you; it will be useful for your other expenses in the future. Besides, the apartment doesn't cost that much. So, you shouldn't be worried about me."Emotions took over the lady's heart as she gazed at Roderick with concern. She was moved by his good heart. Despite having only a little, he was still so generous in looking out for her and the old man."Thank you so much, Roderick, for all you do. I believe someday Mr. Santos Sr. will get well to appreciate all you have done for him," Mrs. Dalton couldn't help but

Roderick's words were plain and straightforward, and they all got stunned. With the confidence on his face, they could tell he wasn't bluffing.However, they had always known Roderick as a nobody. This made them have slight doubts in their minds about whether he was really capable of handling the matter.This was the thought of the Santos family members except for Felicia. She didn't mind giving Roderick the go-ahead right away to help them.It was truly a nightmare for her to become insignificant in Glacia City after being known as the CEO of Santos Corporation.For that reason, she thought that if they failed to find a way to get back on their feet financially, there was no way she wouldn't end up being insignificant.Given the fact that the price proposed for the old building they were about to sell wasn’t even close to over a hundred million dollars, Jonah had stolen from them.Automatically, she settled on having their stolen money back as the best option.She was about to agree

Roderick's heart clenched instantly with fury upon hearing such horrible statements from Clara. He was immediately consumed by anger but tried his best not to raise a hand.Roderick's stare toward Clara at this moment was deadly. Simply because she wished Oliver Santos dead, Roderick was tempted to put her in her place.However, he tried his best to suppress the anger.It was highly surprising to him that he and Mr. Dalton were the only ones who felt the harshness of such a heartless statement.The rest of the Santos family, who were the biological children of Oliver Santos, didn't feel a thing. It was just a random statement to them.This made Roderick understand that for Clara to be so bold as to say such a thing among family members without holding back a word about it, it must have been a casual statement they say among themselves.Not even a sign of regret or worry appeared on Clara's face for mentioning such an inhumane statement.After Roderick was able to swallow his anger, he

A quick shock took over the room as they wondered how Roderick had found out about it. They had kept the matter secret among themselves. How did it manage to get to an outsider like Roderick?Clara quickly waved it off to cover their shame. "What are you saying, Roderick? How dare you cook up such a false story against our family and Mr. Quinton?"Roderick was taken aback. He couldn't believe Clara was still trying to cover up for Jonah at this time despite all he had done to them.Undoubtedly, they deserved all that Jonah had brought upon them because they would never learn.With a serious face, Roderick asked Clara, "Does it mean that you are still backing Jonah despite all he did to you?"The family fell silent. With the seriousness in Roderick's voice, they could tell that he knew what he was saying. He wasn't making anything up as Clara had thought.Felicia found no reason to hide this truth from Roderick. After all, they were once family.Since he had already learned about it, s
