Chapter 134
Chapter 134 Give Me an Answer Before You Leave
“You have three days.” Selena was speechless at Pierre’s reply. “Isn’t this a bit too short?”
“What makes you think you have the right to negotiate terms with me?” he bit back. How dare she try to
negotiate this when I am the one in charge? “You—”
“Give me an answer before you leave this ind.” After turning his attention away from her, he went
upstairs. Meanwhile, she gave him an eye roll before deciding to put the matter aside for the time
being. It would be better use of time to give Juniper a call to tell her she was safe.
Back in Fowler Residence, John was pacing back and forth in his study, anxious over theck of news
of Pierre. By that point, he was starting to regret what he did, all the while wondering if he made a
wrong move by forcing Pierre into a marriage. If he did intend to marry, he would’ve made sure nothing
would go wrong. Pierre was a meticulous person, so an attack like that shouldn’t have happened during
the wedding.
At that moment, Yoel came into the study after a knock.
“How is it? Do you have any news?” John shot up from his seat.
“Yes, Mr. Fowler. Young Master Pierre and Miss Yard were abducted by the group of people, but Young
Master was witty enough to be able to throw them off and reach another ind on a rescue boat.
However…”
“What is it?” John’s eyes went wide. Perhaps due to age, he was no longer as firm as he used to be; all
he prayed for was his son’s safety.
“Young Master was shot, but he was injured on his leg, so he should be alright.”
Only then did John sit down, figuring that all was well as long as Pierre was alive. At that moment, a
figure could be seen dashing past the door. “Mr. Fowler, the Young Master Chris is home,” Yoel quickly
reported. In response, John merely frowned without saying anything.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room was a man in ripped jeans and a long-sleeved T-shirt with
unconventional prints. A strand of his hair was dyed blue, which gave him a rebellious and unruly
appearance when coupled with his attire. He was none other than Pierre Fowler’s younger brother and
Helen Fowler’s son, Chris Fowler. In contrast to his brother, he was of a totally different temperament.
With his unassuming looks, he had a certain tenderness and delicateness about him, all the while
bearing semnce to his mother due to him having grown up in a loving environment.
Meanwhile, Helen came downstairs while wearing a frown, which only deepened as soon as she saw
Chris’ appearance. “Chris, what is with that look?”

Focused on ying games on his phone, he asked, “Don’t I look great like this?”
“You call that great?” Helen heaved a sigh. Chris had been studying in Springvale, so it had been a
while since hisst visit. Therefore, she didn’t intend to quarrel with him.
John came downstairs soon after. Upon seeing him, Chris tucked his phone away and tried to hide his
strand of blue hair. “Dad, how is Pierre?”
Maintaining a serious expression, John replied, “We’ve found him. He only suffered minor injuries, so
he should be alright.”
“Great to hear that. News of his disappearance scared me, so I rushed back home.” Chris heaved a
sigh of relief.
Eagerly, Helen added, “Yeah. Chris caught a flight back home as soon as he heard what happened
during the wedding.”
However, John kept his silence while sitting on the sofa. Chris never liked to be in his presence, as the
latter emitted an oppressive aura that was suffocating. “Dad, I will be going back to my room. I was in
such a hurry to catch a flight, so I’m tired now.”
“Go on.”
With his father’s permission, Chris went upstairs while yawning. On the other hand, Helen handed the
tea that the servants brought to her to John. “Is Pierre really alright? Where was he hurt? Does he want
to get some rest at home? Staying at home is always better than living outside. Is it not?”
