Chapter 365

The person on the other end said, "Dad..."

"Don't call me that. I don't have a son like you," Theo quickly retorted. The metal frame on the table reflected his cold and stern face, with even the wrinkles at the corners of his mouth tightly drawn.

Theo said, "Since you even dared to change your surname and married into that woman's family, you were already no longer my son. Besides, you're the president of a country now. You even arrested my god-granddaughter. Would you still mind me? Huh." Xander sighed. "Dad, if you're asking for favors, shouldn't you act like it?"

"What? Asking for favors? Are you kidding me? I'm your father, and I'm ordering you to release her!" Theo said loudly and angrily.

Everyone in the dining room downstairs could hear it. They all quietly glanced at the study upstairs.

No one dared to make a noise.

They all knew that only Xander would make Theo this angry.

Xander said, "Didn't you just say that I wasn't your son?"

Theo was speechless. His hand holding the phone shivered. He really wanted to hang up immediately, but then he remembered that his beloved god-granddaughter was still in Xander's hands.

He thought, 'Is he really gonna let me beg him?'

Xander said, "Dad, I know Ophelia is your god-granddaughter, and I also know she's Kenneth's woman. But... I'm in a role where I have my responsibilities to shoulder. This issue must be resolved as soon as possible. But I can promise you to spare her life." Theo thought, 'Spare her life?'

He tightened his grip on the phone. He was well aware of what that implied. She would stay alive, but her condition would be uncertain.

Theo thought, 'Elia is so proud. If she ends up with a disability or suffers a lot...

He couldn't bear to think about it.

He thought, 'She has to come back safe and sound without any harm.

"Do you know how much she means to Kenneth? If anything happens to her, that crazy guy won't let you off." Seeing that his words were ineffective, Theo could only bring Kenneth up.

If there was anyone Xander was still cautious of in his position, it was Kenneth.
