Chapter 159
As the eldest son of the Wales and the only son of the family, he was deeply adored by the seniors in
his family.
The Wales was not as powerful as the four big families, but they had developed rapidly in the north of
Casier. They were sort of a powerful force.
That day, Nash returned to the Wales’ and told his family about what had happened. After hearing
Nash out, Gary Wale, Nash’s father, flew into a rage.
“How foolish of you! I sent you to school for your future career and for you to make more friends. But
you just ruined your reputation for this little interest!”
Nash just sat there quietly and didn’t talk back. He was aware that his father was bad- tempered. If he
talked back to Gary, Gary would be more infuriated and even punish him more harshly.
He still needed his father to deal with this matter. So, at this point, he had to bow. He had learned that
Catherine and her friends didn’t mean to let them go when he left school. They had handed the
evidence to the school. The principal had known about this matter and felt quite mad.
He hurriedly took a leave of absence and went back home. The principal still needed some time to
confirm if the evidence was true. And Nash had to deal with this matter before it was made public.
Bailey Wale, Nash’s mother, who couldn’t bear to see her son being scolded, asked Addison Wale,
Nash’s grandfather, toe and stand up for Nash.
Addison hit the ground hard with his stick and red at Gary. “How foolish of you! Don’t you know what
kind of man your son is? How can he do such a thing? At worst, he merely connived with his
subordinates and covered them up.”
The Wales didn’tck money. As the only son of the Wales, Nash was surely not short of money. All the
resources and wealth of the family were invested in him. How could such a proud man do that kind of
thing?
Addison was clear about everything. He flew into a rage upon hearing that Gary was reproaching Nash.

“You idiot, you can’t even see this through!”
Scolded by Addison, Gary didn’t dare to argue back. After Addison finished speaking, he turned to look
at Nash with an angry expression.
“Tell me. Who on earth are you covering up? Just say it. I’ll call your principal and deal with this matter
right now!”
Nash pursed his lips and said nothing. He agreed with Liana to keep her safe, so he could never
disclose her. Even if he didn’t mention Liana, once this matter was exposed, Liana would be found in
the end. He could never let this happen.
In his eyes, Liana was a kindhearted and innocent girl. He must protect her well. Addison knew better
about Nash’s temper than Gary. He was aware that given Nash’s attitude, Nash would never say it.
“Fine. If you don’t want to say it, just don’t.”
Hearing Addison’s words, Gary immediately shut up. None of the Wales dared to disobey Addison. As
Gary shut up, Addison settled his gaze on Nash. “Tell me what’s going on. Who is targeting you?”
Addison knew well about Nash’spetence. If it weren’t because Nash couldn’t deal with the
problem, he wouldn’t turn to his family for help. An obsessively proud man wouldn’t bow easily.
Nash was also aware that he muste clean now. Otherwise, Addison couldn’t help him. So, he told
Addison what he had known. After hearing Nash out, Addison nodded. “Do you mean the Swanns and
the Duncans?”
“Yes, Grandpa. But the main problem is Catherine Swann. Bryan always listens to her. As long as we
deal with Catherine, this matter will be easily resolved!”
“Is Catherine the daughter of the Swanns who just came back?” Addison asked.
Nash nodded. “Yes, she is!”
“It’s fine then!” Addison thought Nash had offended the Duncans. Although Bryan wasn’t the direct line
of the Duncans, he was raised by Karl as his own grandson.
The Wales had some forces but were not as powerful as the Duncans. If they offended the Duncans,
they would be in big trouble.
The Swanns was also one of the four big families, but Korbin valued immediate interests. He would be
fine with everything as long as he was given enough money.
The point was that Catherine was merely a daughter of the Swanns, who was just brought back from
the countryside. She was not even a realdy of the Swanns. Korbin wouldn’t offend the Wales for her.
Catherine was an unfavored daughter of her family while Nash was the future heir of the Wales. It
should be an easy choice for Korbin.
Addison directly said to Gary, “You’ll go to the Swanns’ with Nash and talk this through with Korbin.
Let’s see how to deal with this!”
“Yes, Father.”
At the Swanns’.
The sudden visit of Gary and his son directly struck Korbin dumb. He barely dealt with the Wales. Even
if the Wales wanted to seek cooperation, they couldn’te to the Swanns’..
Korbin hastened to put aside his work and invited them in. Gary was quite straightforward. As soon as
he entered the door, he directly told Korbin why he came here today.
Korbin initially thought something serious had happened. Unexpectedly, they were here for some
conflict between Nash and Catherine. He found it quite hrious.
“Mr. Wale, it turns out that you’re here for such a trifle. You shouldn’t havee yourself.” With a
serious look, Gary said to Korbin, “Mr. Swann, if this thing happens to your son, a trifle?” will you think
it’s
From where he and Korbin stood, a daughter was different from a son. They believed that their families
should be inherited by a son. The reputation of the heir of the Wales wasn’t a trifle at all.
Thinking that Nash had done something wrong before, Gary made an offer first. “Mr. Swann, we’re
wrong on this issue. You’re interested in thend project in the north of Casier, right? Would you like to
join the project?”
Korbin’s eyes lit up at once when he heard that. He had longed to join that project, but the Wales was
powerful in the north of Casier. He needed to gain the Wales’ approval if he wanted to be part of it.
He had been unable to find a way. To his surprise, a chance came to him on its own. Korbin loved the
bait offered by Gary. Instantly, he changed his attitude. Korbin immediately put on a stern look and
criticized Catherine strictly.
“Mr. Wale, I’m really sorry. My daughter grew up in the countryside since she was little. She is unruly
and insensible. This time, she was brought back because my dad passed away. And I’m too busy to
discipline her, which ruins the friendship of the two families.
“She’s too insensible. I’ll discipline her well. No worries!”
Gary’s eyes glistened. He knew that Korbin had agreed. “Thank you then. I still have things to do. I’ll be
going with my son now.”
