Really?!

Roderick didn't even know how to react upon hearing that.

The main thing was that Roderick never regretted his initial perception of Margaret. She was just some dumb, spoiled rich brat.

Senseless, just like her father!

Well, if a puppy can't take after a dog, what else could it take after?

Roderick was irritated by Margaret's shallow thinking and silently congratulated Caleb for having a genuine child who resembled him in stupidity.

Then he answered her, "If all a rich kid can think about when they're angry is destroying things, it's actually good for them. At least after destroying things, they'll feel satisfied and proud of themselves."

Margaret, who had been very sharp-tongued earlier, didn’t know why her tone was calm this time.

She didn’t want to believe what Roderick said was an insult.

    They had learned about someone owning the highly valuable land on Tuchel Avenue before it came into the Bolton Group's possession. They never knew it was owned by Roderick until Caleb disclosed it.The crowd began to wonder how much Roderick would have made by handing over the land to the Bolton Group, even though he was the company's spokesperson.They thought that the Bolton Group wouldn't have been able to win over Roderick's heart to persuade him to give up the land if he weren't a staff member of the company.The crowd was still mesmerized by this until Caleb revealed that he was the one who had first arranged for Roderick to be kidnapped before he abducted the people he had sent to kidnap him.This was more than funny to the ears of the audience. The press officials were more than awestruck to hear this as well.They all remembered how Caleb had tarnished Roderick's name in the last interview they did with him. Who could have thought that he was the villain of the whole matter?

    At this moment, Caleb Houston was more than tired of his existence. If not for his daughter being involved in this matter, he wouldn't have thought twice before jumping off a cliff to leave this world behind.These troubles were just too much for him to bear.The people he could rely on when in trouble had all turned their backs on him.Not only that, but they also advised him to go apologize to Roderick. He refused because it would be more than an embarrassment to his pride.Heaving a deep sigh, Caleb was seriously tired of all these troubles. Then, he finally gave in and promised to do whatever it took to save his daughter, even if it meant losing face in the city.After concluding, Caleb didn't know when his eyes shut and tears began to stream down.It was more than unbelievable to him that he could be this worked up just because he wanted to deal with Roderick, a nobody."So, I'm really going to reach out to the press tomorrow to reveal my own secrets! How pathetic!"Caleb Houston

    Even though getting the contacts of these people might cost him a lot, as they were high-ranking government officials whose contacts would be confidential, he didn't mind giving it his all to find them.He remembered his daughter had pleaded with him to save her from prison, regardless of the cost.As Caleb struggled to find the contacts, he also had at the back of his mind that he knew he was the guilty one if the matter got traced to its root.He could only hope that reaching out to his superiors wouldn't land him in a bigger mess.He couldn't answer Roderick's instructions, which was why he wanted to make them his trump card instead.Caleb could only pray that even after his escape, with the help of the superior officers, he would not end up in jail.Because all the attacks he had made towards Roderick were enough to get him sentenced.Despite these thoughts, Caleb shrugged them off and went ahead to put the call through.His determination grew stronger as he thought that all that

    The information in the email made Caleb more agitated. It was nothing but an instruction from Roderick.The instruction said: "Caleb Houston, you are very smart to discover who was behind the kidnapping of your daughter even before getting any information from them. However, you seem too stupid to know the right thing to do to save yourself from trouble.After you were warned not to go after Roderick Holmes and his parcel of land on Tuchel Avenue, you were still too stubborn to attempt it.To worsen the case, the interview you gave to tarnish Roderick Holmes's image as if he were the guilty one had gone viral. Do you really expect him to overlook this crime of yours?Here is an instruction for you on what to do: Reach out to the same press corporations and expose yourself by telling the whole truth behind the matter from the onset without leaving a single thing out.Well, you don't need to follow this instruction, but the longer it takes you to do the needful, the more your daughter s

    Caleb was more than bewildered by the direction the matter was heading at this time. Roderick was just a nobody. Why was Thomas Lopez afraid of him?Besides, the last statement he made—that he’s not someone to be messed with—sounded very familiar to Caleb's ears.Just then, he remembered that Benjamin had said the same thing to him.Caleb knew Benjamin must have said that because he was trying to cover for Roderick, and he didn’t want any trouble to happen to him. Given that, he also wanted to curry favor with him.But as for Thomas Lopez, was he also looking to curry favor with Roderick? Is that why he couldn’t confront him?These thoughts sounded very odd to Caleb. A thought flashed into his mind as he muttered in a low tone, “Could it be that Benjamin and the others were the ones who stopped Thomas from digging into this matter?”Caleb couldn’t help but stamp his feet in anger, as he never thought his friends could stoop so low as to corner him in such a manner.Aside from that, th
