Riches in Disguise

Chapter 293

Mark was still skeptical about whether my words could be trusted. However, he eventually reported to Victor. After signing the contract and getting the 900 thousand dollars, he called me right away to thank me.

Ultimately, he couldn't help but ask, "Mr. White, aren't you worried I'll take the money and disappear or betray you?"

I chuckled. "Feel free to give it a try."

After all, just one punch from Victor would be enough to make him regret it, not to mention what could happen if I used other methods.

Now that Mark's problem was dealt with, it was time to deal with Lynn.

Lynn had witnessed the entire thing unfold between me and Mark. Although the hostility and blame in her eyes had faded, they were still icy cold.

I could understand her perspective. Even if she hated me for the rest of her life, I would never grumble about it.

After all, Riley already had psychological issues. Even though she was safely brought back, the kidnapping must have scared her and made things worse.

Still, it was all on me. I hadn't thought things through or taken proper care of Riley. On top of that, I acted on my own.

I wouldn't blame her for being cold toward me. Even if she slapped me, I would have to accept it. However, this matter wasn't over yet.
