Chapter 341 Forgive Her


"Did you hear me? If you don't handle this, I'll take matters into my own hands. I'll have her kidnapped and sold to traffickers, who'll send her off to some remote area," the recording said. Ambrose had played exactly that clip-the one Marigold had said over the phone last time.

"Ambrose, you bastard! You actually saved our conversation?" Marigold's fury was palpable. She was completely blindsided by Ambrose's cold maneuver.

Ambrose maintained his indifferent demeanor. "Well, Marigold, the conversation is right there for you to hear. It's evidence of you actively soliciting me to kidnap Stellan. If you really want to expose our conspiracy, I'll just hand this recording over to the police and play the victim, claiming you coerced me."

He continued, "If that happens, even if I get charged, I'll only be an accessory at most. Neil, the detective on this case, is obsessed with finding the truth. If I hand over this recording, the whole story will be crystal clear. You'll end up in jail, and your family's reputation-the Knight Family's-will be completely destroyed. Just like the Nash Family was. Remember how Griffon single-handedly ruined the Nash Family? The Knight Family could easily become the next Nash Family, erasing a century of legacy."

"Ambrose, you vile scoundrel! You're despicable!" Marigold was so enraged she looked like she might lash out at Ambrose.

"Marigold, I suggest you calm down. If you act out, it will only prove you're in the wrong," Ambrose warned her.

Marigold was trembling with anger. Ambrose added, "Our interests are tied together. Keeping quiet and protecting me is essentially protecting yourself. You can be sure I'll get Stellan back. We'll have more opportunities to work together on this."

"Work with you? Not a chance, you bastard!" Marigold shot back.

"Who else can help you get Stellan away from your son if not me?" Ambrose said calmly. "You can be as mad as you want, but the truth is, we have shared interests. Now, if you don't mind, I'm quite busy. You should go."
