Chapter 288 Alaric, You're Slandering Me!


'About the Storm Family?' Todd thought.

Todd and Bill exchanged glances upon hearing this; then both looked at Ambrose, who immediately averted his gaze.

"Don't even think about lying to get out of this," Alaric reminded them again. "I've already arranged everything outside. If I don't get a satisfactory answer today, no one will be leaving here."

Todd really wanted to kick himself at this moment. 'Why did I have to invite Alaric to this jewelry exhibition?' he asked himself inwardly. He intended to annoy Alaric, but instead, he got himself into trouble. "This is Arizona. If anything happens to you here, I have plenty of ways to clear myself. Understand?" Alaric threatened again.

"Mr. Knight, I really don't understand why you would think Mrs. Knight's family's bankruptcy has anything to do with the Vale Family," Bill began, feigning innocence. "The Vale Family has no connection with the Storm Family. Stuart and Brennan have never even met. There's no enmity between us, and the Storm Family's bankruptcy wouldn't benefit the Vale Family at all. Why would we do something so pointless and harmful?"

"Exactly, Mr. Knight," Todd chimed in with his usual nonchalant tone. "We also regret what happened to Mrs. Knight's family back then and understand your desire to find out the truth. But you can't just accuse anyone you come across, right?" "Framing and murder-if these charges stick, you can imagine the consequences for the Vale Family. Such serious matters should have a consistent story. Why is it that what I hear from Mr. Todd Vale is so different from what Mr. Ambrose Vale says?" Alaric reminded.

A deathly silence hung over the room again. With a glare filled with bloodlust and anger, Todd's eyes pierced Ambrose. Ambrose immediately panicked and became even more enraged. "Alaric, what are you spouting? When did I ever say such things to you? Stop slandering me!"
