Chapter 393


    “What are you talking about? Make way for Callic? She’s your sister and my niece, for God’s sake. As


    an uncle, it’s the least I can do to take care of her, right?”


    “Niece? From what I can see, I think it’s just a one-sided rtionship. You treated her like your niece,


    but she might not feel the same way about you. Otherwise, why doesn’t she go visit him in the


    hospital? No “Don’t tell me she’s not free because she’s made several visits to Jeremy in the hospital. If


    that’s the case, why didn’t she show up to visit you, her own uncle?”


    Hearing this, my father was stunned for a moment. “Didn’t shee back just two days ago?”


    “This is not true! Isabe said she’s been back for a while!” With a snort, I continued, “Three days ago, I


    found her having dinner with Aunt Luna. Then the next day I saw her having dinner with


    Eric. Yesterday, I saw her again in Eric’spany. And tonight, she showed up at my house. It really


    pisses me off to see that person every other day!”


    “You don’t like Callie?” Startled, my father asked, “Why?”


    “There’s no reason for me to like someone who doesn’t like me, right?


    “She does not like you? Before you got home, she was already asking about you.”


    “Daddy, you are an experienced man. Can’t you tell she’s a typical two-faced person?”


    “Those are some nasty words.”


    “Unpleasant? I’m just stating the fact. Traitors like her are what I despise the most!”


    “What did Callie say about you?”


    “She told Eric I wet the bed and how the boys wanted me to be their bride when I was young. She even


    mentioned that I was so chubby I couldn’t even walk on my own. I just don’t understand Why does she


    like to spread malicious gossip about others?”


    “Well, all of that is true. Although I have to admit, bed wetting is pretty embarrassing. My father didn’t


    care about that. “However, you really should improve your temper. Why did you argue with Eric over


    such trivial matters? After all, he is the chairman of the Walker Group, so you should have some


    respect for him.”


    “Did Callie tell you about my argument with Eric? She is great!”


    “No, it wasn’t Callie, so don’t use her,” my mom defended Callic.


    “Don’t side with her! She was the only one present during my discussion with Eric. If not her, then who


    else?” I refuted.


    “There’s still Eric, right?” My father looked at me.


    “Eric? Eric told you?” Startled, I gaped at my father. I couldn’t believe Eric had deliberatelye here


    and talked to my dad about this.


    “Yes. After you leftst night, Eric came over and exined the whole incident to us. All he did was ask


    you to work overtime, so do you really have to rip his head off? That attitude of yours really needs to


    change. ”


    Trembling with rage, I said, “It wasn’t about the overtime!”


    “So what is it?” my father questioned.


    “He is a shameless and a traitor! He had promised me, but he failed to keep his promise!” Seething


    with rage. I


    started to ramble.


    “What did he promise you?”


    Upon hearing my father’s question, I was momentarily speechless. How could I tell my dad about


    things between Eric and me? All ns would fail if my father knew I was plotting against


    Jolene. Luckily, I managed toe up with another excuse. “He promised he would let mypany

    take over the project, but he didn’t keep his word! Of course, I would argue with him!”


    “That’s why I said that with your temper, you’re bound to lose. When ites to business, it’s always


    changing! Other than official signed contracts, a promise is nothing more than a worthless piece of


    paper. Surely you know that? ” My father gave me a meaningful look.
