Chapter 248

Gabriel saw Desmond's hesitant look and knew it was something serious. His sharp eyes scanned Desmond.

They had always been open with each other, whether it was good or bad. For Desmond

to be so troubled, could it be about that woman, Clara?

Thinking of this, Gabriel's face darkened.

As he expected, Desmond seemed to have made up his mind and then said with determination, "Dad, can you help with Clara's matter?"

Gabriel snorted coldly and reprimanded, "Help? How? Don't you know what trouble Clara is in now? Have you forgotten what I told you before?"

Desmond shrank back at Gabriel's scolding.

He knew his father would definitely not agree.

Just as he was about to speak, Gabriel seemed to think of something. His eyes narrowed, emitting a dangerous aura, "Did you go see her today?"

Desmond didn't hide it.

"Yes." He met his father's gaze, "Clara is my fiancée. She's in trouble now, of course, I have to help her."

Gabriel slammed the table and angrily rebuked, "You fool, when will you grow up? Is this the time to show off? If you have the ability, then go help her. Without using the Boleyn family's connections, if you can help her, I won't oppose it!"

Desmond sighed inwardly.

Every time Clara was mentioned, his father would get angry.
