Chapter 970

"Why did I hit you? You know it very well," Mr. McGuire's face was so dark it could almost drip ink. "We treated you well, and yet you dare to harm my daughter. What did Katie do to you?"

"I harm Katie? How is that possible? I care for her more than anything," Kareem quickly defended himself, "I'm her brother. My older brother is trapped abroad, and I've been taking care of Katie all along!" "You talk better than you sing. Do you think I don't know about your schemes behind the scenes? If it weren't for my respect for your father, do you think I would tolerate you?" Mr. McGuire sneered, his face stil grim.

"Don't think I don't know about your shady dealings. If it weren't for my dad's sake, do you think I'd put up with you? Kareem, I don't care what you do. You want money, I know all about your schemes, but I turn a blind eye. But you keep pushing my limits! Don't blame me for not being polite!"

"Uncle, what are you saying? Katie had an accident? I had no idea," Kareem looked anxiously at Mr. McGuire, "Are you so worried about Katie that you're talking nonsense here?"

"You're still pretending," Mr. McGuire's anger turned Kareem's face pale, "What are you pretending for? You, a distant relative, can live in the McGuire family mansion. Why? It's all because your dad and I grew up together. Your dad even broke a leg for me in school! His affection for me, you can't compare no matter how many times over!"

"For your dad's sake, no matter what you do, no matter how much harm you bring to the McGuire Group, I stay silent. Carolyn just couldn't stand it and took away your power, so what? My daughter-in-law and son are the rightful heirs. And you? You have ambitions you shouldn't have."

Kareem's heart trembled. He didn't expect Mr. McGuire to know so much.

His mind went blank, feeling lost.

But soon, he calmed down, pitifully covering the swollen half of his face, "Uncle, I never thought I would be so despised in your eyes. I'm really not like what you said... As for Carolyn, I don't care how she treats me. Everything I have is given by the McGuire family, so I'm very grateful. My older brother is trapped abroad, and I'm worried... Now hearing about Katie's accident. I wish I could fly over... Bear all the pain for Katie..."

"Shut up!" Mr. McGuire roared, "If I didn't know you so well, I might have believed your excuses. Kareem, I advise you to stop now, or... the Gibson family isn't easy to mess with. Do you think Jasper is easy to bully? Or Geoff?"

"Uncle... why are we suddenly talking about the Gibson family? I haven't offended them," Kareem said, but he felt a hint of fear.

Carolyn was just an adopted daughter... The Gibson family shouldn't go to extremes for her, right? Moreover, he had been very discreet. How could they possibly trace it back to him?

"Hmph," Mr. McGuire scrutinized him, "You're brave. I admire you. But if you push it too far, you'll bury the entire McGuire Group with you!"

Back when Carolyn hadn't revealed she was the daughter of the Gibson family, it was as hard as climbing the sky for her to enter the McGuire family.

But later? The Gibson family had status and wealth in Urgford.

After knowing she was the daughter of the Gibson family, although she was an adopted daughter, the McGuire family still accepted her. Especially since her relationship with the son was good, Carolyn was outstandingly capable, and together they expanded the McGuire Group.
