Crossed The Line
Susan stole a glimpse at the tall and intimidating man beside her, feeling the indifference exuding from
every fiber of his body.
Samuel had an angr jawline, a straight nose, and a cold gaze that could send chills down people’s
spines as though it was a long winter’s night.
In the past, she thought of him as an elegant yet reserved man, someone she could barely understand.
At that moment, however, it was the first time she feared him.
Susan shuddered and tugged at the hem of his shirt as she tried to exin, “Samuel, it’s not like that!
She’s trying to frame me. I’ve never even thought about hurting Natalie. Please, you have to believe
me!”
“Let go!” Samuel demanded.
“Samuel-”
“Get out of my sight!” he spat as he red at her like she was some low-life scum.
With that, Susan turned pale and loosened her grip. Meanwhile, Phoebe was still going on about Susan
as Wyatt and his wife were in a brawl with Winnie and her husband. The whole banquet was in chaos.
Alfred knew that if his granddaughter tarnished her reputation, it would be hard for her to marry into a
good family and she would be an outcast from then on. He was a man who had been through a
lot, so it was easy for him to figure out that Susan was definitely involved. At that point, there was
nothing much he could do but give up on Phoebe and try to defend Susan, no matter what. “How
shameless of you to even think of dragging Susan down with you! Stop with all your nonsense!”
Alfred’s face was flushed with rage. “Is no one going to take this eyesore away? Are you all just going
to make a fool of yourselves in front of outsiders?” With that, it meant that things wereing to a
close. Nevertheless, Susan was not in the clear even though it was Phoebe’s reputation that got
ruined. When the two left, the way they looked at each other no longer showed any signs of their
familiarity. Instead, there was deep resentment.
After their departure, the crowd slowly dispersed. “Old Mr. Leister, the deal we made just now is off the
table,” Samuel said. Despite being expressionless, the rage in his voice was clear as day. Alfred’s
expression immediately turned grim because he was at a loss for words. The coboration with the
Bowers family involved vein mining. On paper, it looked mutually beneficial. However, in reality, the
profit distribution and the investment strategies involved favored the Leister family more in terms of
benefits. Hence, thetter would be suffering a huge loss if the coboration ceased. “Can we talk this
out, Samuel?” Alfred said in a hurry. “I know I didn’t educate my granddaughters well. I sincerely
apologize for what they did. Please don’t let this affect the rtionship between our two families.” Alfred
was currently over eighty years old, but he was putting himself down in front of a man who was yet to
be thirty, almost begging for Samuel to reconsider his decision.
“We can continue to work together. However, I would need to see a gesture of goodwill from you before
anything else.” Samuel’s expression darkened. Hearing that, Alfred thought what he meant was from a
business perspective. So, the elderly quickly tried to disy his sincerity. “The Leister family can take a
step back. We’ll only take twenty percent=” Before Alfred could finish, Samuel interrupted him. “That’s
not what I had in mind, Mr. Leister,” thetter said nonchntly. “Then?” Alfred asked with a puzzled
expression. “For the public, what you did just now was good enough, so I won’t make a fuss about it,”
Samuel said before his tone suddenly changed, and he narrowed his gaze. “Personally, I want both
Phoebe and Susan punished. Show me what you can do.” “This…” SWNOR Dally, I want Alfred
shuddered while looking at the young man before him. “Are you refusing?” Samuel asked casually.
“Never mind, then.”
