Chapter 1200 Threatening Garrett


    Kailee harbored a deep resentment towards Ian, believing that if he hadn''t intervened and stopped


    Laney, she would have been able to use the essential oils and induce an undetected premature


    delivery.


    What made matters worse was that Ian was one of J''s men.


    Despite Kailee not fearing Laney, the thought of going against J, who had powerful supporters


    like the Larson and the White family, filled her with fear.


    With a look of disgust, Garrett brushed off Kailee''s hand and firmly dered, "This is a matter


    concerning the Harding family and none of your concern. If there''s nothing else, leave now. I don''t


    want to see you again."


    Kailee was taken aback by Garrett''s coldness and his clear animosity towards her. She couldn''t


    believe that he could hate her so much.


    But her anger quickly turned intoughter as she pulled out her phone from her bag, handing it over


    to Garrett. "If I leave now, I''m going straight to see Laney."


    Garrett was stunned when he saw what was on Kailee''s phone.


    He quickly reached for the phone, his expression contorted upon seeing the photos on it, visibly


    disturbed by the impact of what he saw.


    Upon noticing the tense expression on Garrett''s face, Kailee''s mood suddenly lifted and she spoke


    in a cheerful tone. "I believe Laney would find these pictures quite intriguing."


    "Kailee!" Garrett''s hands tightened around the phone as he stared at Kailee, disbelief etched on his


    face. "What is it that you want?" he demanded.


    Kailee let out a snort of contempt, raising her chin with a smug look as she gazed at Ian. "First


    things first, I want you to fire this person," she dered, pointing an using finger at Ian. "We can


    discuss the other matters afterwards."


    Garrett''s face turned crimson with rage as he red first at Ian, then at Kailee. His breathing


    becamebored as he struggled to regain hisposure.


    While he did consider the idea of firing Ian, Garrett didn''t want to be forced into it by Kailee.


    Garrett knew that he was in a difficult situation. If he didn''t do what Kailee wanted, Laney might find


    out about the photos, which would be disastrous. However, if he did fire Ian, it would only give


    Kailee more power over him.


    Garrett''s mind raced as he weighed the consequences of his actions. He had never been in a


    situation like this before, and he feltpletely helpless. On one hand, he didn''t want to give in to


    Kailee''s demands, but on the other hand, he couldn''t bear the thought of Laney seeing those


    photos.


    With aposed tone, Ian interjected, "I was sent here by Mrs. Larson. Mr. Harding doesn''t have


    the authority to determine my employment status."


    Kaileezily cast a nce at Ian, then turned to the hesitant Garrett and urged him, "He is a mere


    assistant. You can handle such a simple thing, can''t you?"


    Clenching his fists, Garrett''s eyes shifted between Ian and Kailee, as if trying to weigh the


    consequences of his next move. After a moment of hesitation, he made up his mind and addressed


    Ian in a low voice, "You may go now, Ian."


    "Sure, but you need to discuss this with Mrs. Larson before firing me," Ian calmly replied.


    Ian pulled out his phone and dialed J''s number. He then handed the phone to Kailee and said,


    "You talk to her."


    Thecent look on Kailee''s face disappeared in an instant. She didn''t expect Ian to have the


    audacity to mention J''s name and threaten her. Ian noticed Kailee''s hesitation to speak with


    J and said, "Mrs. Larson specifically instructed me to contact her directly if you ever came


    around to cause trouble again. I am sure she would be very interested to hear what you have to


    say."


    As Kailee stood there, the memories of a phone call came flooding back to her mind. It was the day


    when Laney had given birth to her baby, and she had received a call from J. The voice on the


    other end had been cold and unyielding, promising to never let her go if she were to cause


    problems.


    She suddenly panicked and swiftly reached out to grab the phone.


    Ian stepped back to avoid Kailee.


    "Don''t threaten me with J!" Kailee stubbornly retorted, "This is a matter concerning the Harding


    family. Regardless of how powerful J may be, is it appropriate for her to meddle in other


    people''s family affairs?"


    Ian maintained a cold gaze on Kailee, but remained silent.


    Although Ian was not sure what kind of information Kailee had on her phone that made Garrett so


    afraid, he wouldn''t just cave in and quit his job.


    Garrett may have been afraid of Kailee''s threats, but J was not one to be intimidated by her.

    Kailee felt increasingly embarrassed under Ian''s calm gaze. Turning to Garrett, she threatened him


    openly, "You better take care of Ian soon, or I can''t guarantee that I won''t go to Laney right away."


    In spite of his reluctance, Garret had no choice but to hang up Ian''s phone. "You go back first. Don''t


    tell Laney and J what happened here."


    "Garrett!" Kailee appeared dissatisfied with the oue and dered, "Don''t forget what I''ve got..."
