After the divorce, he begged
Chapter 335
After saying goodbye to Amelia, Rebecca hopped into her car and headed out
Meanwhile, Amelis pulled out her phone and chot Ryan a message: [Rebecca’s here. If the suffers even a tiny bit at the Curman family, I won’t mind hacking into your company and blowing up some secrets.
Since they’d added each other as contacts, this was actually the first time Amelia had ever messaged him
Ryan replied almost instantly: [Don’t worry.)
Amelia put her phone away and didn’t bother checking it again.
Ryan turned to Old Mr. Lawrence and asked, “Did you give those folks a heads–up?”
Old Mr. Lawrence replied, “No.”
Ryan’s brows furrowed in frustration.
Anyone could tell Ryan was clearly annoyed by that answer.
He was the one who had invited Rebecca and promised to make sure everyone treated her right. Now he was hearing that Old Mr. Lawrence hadn’t prepared anything at all–it seriously ticked him off.
“I had them show up an hour early,” Old Mr. Lawrence said, old but still sharp. “Everyone should’ve arrived by now. If you need to say something, now’s your chance.”
Ryan fixed his eyes on Old Mr. Lawrence–he couldn’t shake the feeling the old man was setting him up.
Old Mr. Lawrence pressed, “Why are you just standing there? Rebecca’s gonna show up any minute. Do you want her walking in and overhearing stuff she’d hate to hear?”
“What exactly are you trying to pull?” Ryan snapped, the usual respect gone from his voice.
Old Mr. Lawrence just replied calmly, “I just want Becky to come home for a meal, meet her uncles and grandpas in the family. That’s all–what else did you expect?”
Ryan just sat there, not moving an inch.
Old Mr. Lawrence was starting to get anxious.
“What’s he doing just sitting there? It’s almost time–he should be out there talking to those people already, Old Mr. Lawrence fretted.
“Aren’t you going?” he pressed again.
“I’m not going over there until you tell me what you’re really after,” Ryan said, his tone icy. He’d grown up in a world full of schemes, from the Guzman Group’s shares down to the smallest details of daily life.
He’d kept his cool through more than twenty years of family scheming.
