Chapter 657
"Chucky, it''s fine."
Wi couldn''t say it at all. She was the kind of girl who was ustomed to burying everything in her
heart.
She liked Chuck in private, and it was enough that she saw Chuck being happy. It was not important
for her to do anything else.
With this kind of character, Wi could not exin anything to him.
Chuck was helpless.
"It''s really nothing," Wi smiled gently. Now that she was alive, it was best to maintain this
rtionship.
After all, she already promised Yvette. She couldn''t and wouldn''t have anything to do with Chuck
anymore.
In addition, Chuck didn''t like her. If he didn''t have those feelings towards her, it would be useless for
her to confess out loud. This would only make their rtionship even more awkward.
There was no need to go so far.
"Alright then. Rest well," Chuck helped her to the bed.
"Okay."
Chuck went out in ease. Meanwhile, Wiid on the bed. She could only sigh, her gaze bleak.
"Chucky, it''s not that I don''t want to say out loud. I especially want to tell you my feelings. I don''t
even know when it started, but I''ve started missing you a lot. I like you very much, but... there are
some things that I can''t say as they will only change the rtionship between us. Since that''s the
case, I''d rather stay like this..."
After enjoying the food prepared by Yvette, Chuck had gotten a full day of rest. He decided to
resume his training.
He was talented inbat and was willing to put in a little extra effort to sharpen his skills. As a
result, he was steadily improving daily.
Chuck''s two ultimate goals were to be the world''s billionaire and topbat expert.
The next day, he asked his mother to send 50 billion dors to the Lawrence family. Sophia was
very efficient, so he believed that he would soon obtain his profits.
As for Patricia Dawson, she had been studying in Karen''s casino for a long time. Chuck''s first
business in the United States could start very soon.
Chuck had already asked her to search for a good spot. Besides, Betty, Chuck and Yvette had
already paid the ce a visit and gave Patricia a green light.
It was a somewhat deserted building, but all it needed was some renovation to start their business.
Hence, this saved them a lot of time. Soon, Patricia started to work on the renovations and
designing of the building, as well as some exterior decors to brighten up the ce. Chuck was
absolutely confident in her abilities.
At the same time, he also had high hopes in his very first business.
The start of his business empire had officially begun.
When the casino opened, Chuck would make sure everyone here would hear of his morous and
luxurious casino!
He was very confident. He trained himself even harder...
Meanwhile, at the Lee family.
Elijah, the head of the Lee family, had a cold expression stered on his face. In fact, he was even
enraged.
Brayden, as well as the other core members of the Lee family, were equally furious!
"Dad, the Oatker family has gone too far. I can''t believe they''re attacking us now! They''re definitely
nning to take us down with them!" Brayden was absolutely infuriated.
Over the past few days, Karen had already begun to seriously deal with the Oatker family. It was
undeniable that she was really quick at doing so.
Even the Oatker family didn''t expect someone like Karen, who had never resisted any of their
attacks before, to fight back so fiercely this time. It was terrifying.
In just two days, she had managed to topple much of the Oatker family.
The whole Lee family was shocked. None of them expected Karen to be so powerful!
While the Lee family was shocked, the Oatker family went ballistic. They tried to get the Lees to join
them in their fight against Karen.
However, the Lee family had already been taken down by Karen. They didn''t have the firearms, the
manpower nor the mood to do so.
Everyone had simr thoughts, all except for Brayden.
In fact, Brayden had already met with some members of the Oatker family to reach a primary
consensus on their cooperation. However, some problems that arose midway took him by surpriseThis content is ? N?velDrama.Org.
and had himpletely incapacitated in the Lee family mansion.
Bang!
Elijah pped Brayden.
Brayden was astonished. He cupped his cheek in disbelief and bellowed, "Dad, why did you p
me?"
The other Lee family members were all equally dumbfounded. What was going on?
"Stop pretending! Other people don''t know what you''ve secretly done, but I won''t be fooled!
Confess, now!" Elijah was anguished by his son''s foolish decision.
Everyone could only stare at them nkly, unable toprehend what was going on. Brayden tried
to exin himself, "Dad, what are you talking about? What did I secretly do? Don''t
misunderstand..."
Smack!
Another heavy pnded on his face again!
Soon, Brayden''s face was red and swollen.
"B*stard, are you still trying to make up excuses?" Elijah was furious.
Brayden did not dare to meet his father''s ming gaze. He could only lower his head and avoid eye
contact. He stammered, "Dad..."
"Tell me, what did you do? Did you secretly meet with the Oatker family? Did you promise them to
join hands with them and deal with Karen?"
"Say it, now!"
"I''lle clean! Dad, don''t be angry. It''s true that I''ve met with the Oatker family representatives,
but I never thought that they''d lie to me and drag me down. I..." Brayden was filled with anger.
"You ungrateful b*stard! Karen has already let us gost time. How dare you do this to her?" Elijah
was shivering from the rage that rose within him.
"Brayden, what have you done?"
"That''s right! Given Karen''s strength, even if we were to join hands with the Oatker family against
her, we wouldn''t be able to stand a chance!"
Everyone sighed as they spoke out against Brayden''s rash decision.
Karen''s previous actions to the Lee family coupled by her extreme counterattacks against the
Oatker family for the past two days made everyone understand that she was just too strong.
She had already surpassed the Lee family.
Under such circumstances, what was the point of joining hands with the Oatker family? They would
just be used by the Oatker family anyways!
Brayden was furious, but he did not refute everyone''s opposition.
He did not expect Karen''s strength to be so strong to even beat up the Oatker family of the Four
Greatest Households into submission.
At the same time, he was puzzled. Why would the previously passive Karen suddenly decide to
retaliate against the Oatker family?
What was Karen anxious about? What was the reason for her sudden actions?
Brayden just couldn''t figure it out.
"What should we do now? Will shee after us again?" A middle-aged man said with lingering
fear.
Last time, he was beaten up badly by Karen. He was terrified of her.
Someone suggested, "Dad, why don''t we take the initiative and ask her toe over so we can talk
to her? I''m sure that Karen will forgive us."
"Forgive us?" Elijah was bitter. He had already regretted his decision of driving Karen out of the
family and exiling her.
"Yes, she will forgive us," Another person was convinced.
"Just think about it! If someone backstabbed you in the middle of a fight, would you forgive that
person?" Elijah sighed.
"I..." The person who had suggested this was suddenly rendered speechless.
True. They wouldn''t forgive that person so easily.
"What should we do now? Will she kill us even though we''re family?" Someone was worried.
"s. I''ll have to beg her forgiveness," This was the best solution Elijah coulde up with.
He knew that Brayden still held a grudge towards Karen for his son''s death. If he sent Brayden to
apologize to Karen, things would escte further for sure.
He was the only one capable of appeasing Karen''s anger from being backstabbed. For the sake of
the Lee family, he had no choice.
Elijah was confident. After all, Karen was his biological daughter. Karen would most likely turn a
blind eye to their mistakes if he bowed his head and apologized sincerely to his daughter.
"Dad, y-you..."
"Dad, how can you beg Karen?"
Some people were against it.
"Then, tell me. What do you think we can do?" Elijah reprimanded them coldly.
In fact, he didn''t really want to. If only things weren''t this bad, he wouldn''t have to resort to begging
his own daughter for forgiveness.
Everyone was speechless since they were aware that they had no other choice.
Just then, Brayden had an ominous n. He suggested, "Dad, why don''t we talk to Chuck first?"
"Are you talking about meeting Karen''s son?" Elijah was startled.
This was a good idea. In fact, one of the reasons he regretted exiling Karen from the family was the
fact that he could no longer see his adorable grandchildren.
After all, they were also part of his family.
Everyone looked at Brayden in astonishment.
"Yes, we can talk to Chuck. If we can persuade Chuck to help us, Karen will most likely listen to her
son and let us go," In truth, Brayden would not want to do so either. He snickered silently.
He was pissed. He could only step back and give in to Karen this time, but this was the first and the
last time he''d do so!
After this, he''d take revenge. He couldn''t let his son die in vain!
Brayden''s thoughts were full of hatred and malice. There was no way he''d let his son''s death fade
out just like this. He vowed that eventually, both Karen Lee and Chuck Cannon would die at his
hands!
Elijah was silent for a few seconds. This was a usible idea. First, it was probably easier to talk to
Chuck. Secondly, he wanted to meet Chuck in person.
If he could persuade Chuck to talk to Karen, Elijah wouldn’t need to beg on his knees for
forgiveness. This was a better n as of now.
"Fine, go make the arrangements then. I''d like to meet Chuck... my grandson," Elijah finally gave in.
