Chapter 143
Amber watched with narrowed eyes as Cutler admitted his mistake, cursing him internally for his stupidity. Yet, to maintain a
good rapport, she found herself speaking up on his behalf.
“Look, Cutler might have gone a bit overboard, but his heart was in the right ce,” Amber said, turning to Winnie. “He’s just
worried about you. The glitz and mour of showbiz can be blinding, especially at your age. Cutler is just looking out for you.
Can’t you cut him some ck?”
Sure, the moment Amber spoke up, Cutler brimmed his eyes with gratitude and regarded her as his confidant.
Asoft chime echoed in Amber’s mind, with the system whispering: Two more affinities from Cutler.
“Yup, it worked.” Amber thought. With a slight curve of her lips and an unwavering sincerity in her gaze, she looked back at
Winnie.
Winnie was unreadable as she faced Amber and said, “So far, the biggest malice I’ve faced on
the show has been from his online trolls.”
Her remark was so sharp that it silenced both Amber and Terrell, who had been trying to make excuses for Cutler.
Winnie didn’t bother arguing with Cutler anymore. She turned to Bhus and Clifford, her tone neither warm nor cold, but her
stance was firm, “I don’t take the mystical lightly and | don’t use it on those close to me. I''ll let Cutler off this time, but | hope this
is thest. If not, I''ll settle it my way.”
With that, she turned to Terrell and J, her voice softer, “And when that timees, Lhope you won''t me me.”
Terrell and J were speechless.
“Don''t worry, Winnie. If he dares to pull something like this again, I''ll break his legs myself!” Terrell said, ring at Cutler with a
face like thunder.
Cutler had always been the sensible one, allowing Terrell to focus on the hot-headed Springer. But now, Springer seemed to be
getting along just fine with Winnie, while usually responsible Cutler had caused such a stir without a peep.
Terrell clearly dered his stance. Though his words were harsh, it was clear he preferred to handle the punishment himself
rather than delve into any mystical methods.
With Terrell taking such a stand, Clifford had to be firmly on Winnie''s side as well.
“Regardless of the intention, a mistake is still a mistake,” Clifford said, pausing to give Cutler, whose face was tense, a
meaningful look before adding, “I recall Cutler mentioning starting his venture with a new logisticspany. It’s a good idea, but
starting a business isn’t something you just jump into. Here’s what we''ll do. I’ll put your venture on hold. I’m giving you the
11:45
opportunity to manage a logistics branch in Nystone City. Remember to learn the ropes there. If you do well, then we can talk
about your newpany.”
Clifford’s casual tone belied the weight of his decision to send Cutler to Nystone City.
Cutler went pale because hispany was already in the works!
Because of this petty issue, Clifford was ready to sh his entrepreneurial ns!
No matter how nicely put, it couldn’t hide the fact that Clifford was punishing on Cutler for Winnie.
“Uncle Clifford!” Cutler protested, filled with resentment, but he knew all too well that once
Clifford made a decision, it was final.
So, he turned to Bhus, seeking support, “Grandpa...”
He didn’t appeal to Terrell, knowing his father would always side with Clifford, especially since Terrell also agreed with Clifford’s
arrangement. Terrell had been worried about Cutler’s new logistics venture, considering the saturated market.
Terrell thought to let Cutler give it a try. Even if he failed, it would only be a financial loss.
But now, sending him to Nystone City seemed more fitting for Cutler to gain experience. Plus, it might help shift Cutler’s attitude
toward Winnie, keeping him busy with legitimate work instead of finding ways to trouble Winnie.
With this in mind, Terrell found Clifford’s arrangement to be perfect.
Terrell was a tapestry of agreement, even as he stayed silent.
Cutler ced all his hope on Bhus.
Bhus looked kindly at his grandson, saying, “Do as Clifford said. Head to Nystone City and learn how to run apany
properly. After all, the future of the Bryant family lies with your youngsters.”
Cutler sank his heart, not expecting even his grandfather to endorse Clifford’s decision to send him away. A bitter resentment
grew within him.
Why Nystone City? Even though it wasn’t far, it felt like exile to Cutler. But he dared not voice these thoughts.
The Bright Group, on the surface managed by Terrell and Clifford, had a clear hierarchy. Terrell was devoted to supporting
Clifford in running the conglomerate.
Suggesting that Cutler learn management at the Bright
Terrell’s support but might also trigger Clifford’s waring up headquarters would not onlyck
Cutler had ambition, but now was not the time to reveal it.
With a clenched fist at his side, Cutler silently agreed to Clifford’s arrangement, hiding his emotions well. However, Bhus
easily saw the discontent and reluctance in his eyes.

Bhus chuckled inwardly. Despite Cutler''s intelligence, hecked theposure of Horace.
Bhusmanded, “Alright then, it’s settled. You''re off to Nystone City. But don’t think you''re off the hook for plotting against
Winnie: there’s still a price to pay. Starting now, consider your allowance revoked for the next six months and your bank ount
administered by my assistant. Your spending will be restricted to a specified limit. Andstly, you''ll make a public apology to
Winnie. Once done, we''ll consider the score settled.”
There was no denying that Bhus was crafty.
As soon as heid down thew, Cutler who had just begun to rx, was ovee with mixed emotions.
His entrepreneurial ns were squashed, his monthly pocket money vanished and his ount ess was restricted... And now
he had to apologize to Winnie!
Cutler truly felt that Bhus and Clifford were being unfairly biased at that moment.
With all this over a little misunderstanding, they were taking it too far.
If he had known Bhus and Clifford would be this harsh, he wouldn’t have bothered with Winnie’s silly dramas!
He didn’t need to babysit her attempts to tarnish the Bryant family’s good name. If she wanted to embarrass herself, that was her
problem, not his.
Cutler was overwhelmed with regret.
After all thismotion, Winnie came out unscathed, even gaining a bunch of new fans.Meanwhile, he was exiled and put on a
spending leash.
He was the one who ended up miserable.
Oh no!
