See You Never, Mr. Lamont by Coral

Chapter 166 Give Up on Her
Arlene did it on purpose.
Anyway, Rosalie couldn’t bring anything to the Clayton family. She came this time to improve her relationship with the Friedan family and couldn’t let this little mouse droppings ruin it.
“Sister, don’t say a word if you don’t understand anything, otherwise people will think our family is uncultured,” Rosalie blurted out word by word from between her teeth.
Everyone then turned to Arlene. Previously, when Dempsey came in, their attention was all on Rosalie, and they didn’t notice that Dempsey had brought another person along.
Since Rosalie called her sister, then this must be Dempsey’s illegitimate daughter, Arlene, right?
Arlene was also heard of by them. The scandal of the internet celebrities Rosalie and Hugh was widely spread, and unexpectedly, Dempsey’s illegitimate daughter took the lead.
Such an obvious white knight, it made everyone sympathize with
Arlene.
“Actually, everyone knew that you were being evasive, but there was no evidence. You could only dance on the edge of the law. However, our family cannot have such a precedent,” she said, looking at Dempsey. “Dad, we need to take a stance.”
Arlene reminded openly.
With her reminder, Dempsey also realized that he had to take sides.

Rosalie argued that there was no problem, but if he didn’t show an attitude, the Friedan family might blame the Clayton family in the future when the truth came out.
At the thought of Thoma s’s cold remark “not lacking money” just now, Dempsey shivered all over.
Although the Clayton family had some status in Wyvernport, compared to the Friedan family, they were nothing. If Thomas were to destroy the entire Clayton Group in a fit of anger, it would be a matter of minutes.
Although Thomas was confused in his emotions, he was very clear in his business and political affairs. Moreover, he was extremely resourceful, otherwise he wouldn’t have expanded the Friedan family’s business empire like this.
Dempsey squinted his eyes and glanced at Rosalie, his daughter whom he had nurtured for many years, but unfortunately had to let go.

He walked up to Rosalie and said to her, “Anything you said today has nothing to do with the Clayton family. If what Thomas said is true, you should turn yourself in, and I can still consider you my daughter. But if you did it and refuse to admit your mistake, then I will have no daughter.”
As soon as Dempsey finished speaking, Rosalie’s heart sank and her face turned terrifyingly pale.
She knew that once Dempsey said those words, she was no longer his daughter.
Dempsey was even colder than her, and when it came to crucial
moments, she would give up without hesitation, even if it meant giving up on her own daughter.
Thomas had a cold expression on his face as he said to the security guard, “Kick them out, the Friedan family doesn’t welcome them.”

Rosalie and Dempsey were being escorted away by security, but Arlene had taken out a few invitations from her bag before this and quickly walked over to Claudia, handing them to her.
“Ms. Lloyd, I have always liked your personality. In a couple of days, Hugh and I are having our engagement party, and I hope you can come and join us.”
Ignoring the presence of so many people in the Friedan family, she went straight for her.
This Arlene was quite interesting.
With a delighted smile on her face, Claudia raised her eyebrows and calmly accepted the invitation in front of everyone, saying, “I will definitely go.”
Hugh, this person, she had no intention of letting go either, so she decided to go and watch a play.
Seeing her accept the invitation, Arlene breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly.
Afterwards, without waiting for the security guard to arrive, he turned around and left on his own accord.
Rosalie saw Arlene give Claudia an invitation card, and she was so angry that her whole body trembled. This little bit ch, she must be deliberately disgusting her today!
After the Clayton family left, Thomas looked at Elva with a gloomy and dim expression.
Elva slumped onto the chair, wearing a smile of despair on her face.
“Send her to the nursing home, and from now on… never let her appear again,” Thoma s’s words fell, shocking everyone.
The old courtyard was the Friedan family’s old house, located in the mountains of the suburbs. Although the environment was good, it was desolate and isolated from the world.
Elva didn’t say anything to refute, her mouth moved slightly, but in the end, she kept quiet. She knew that saying anything now would only anger Thomas.
She waited patiently, perhaps there was still a chance.
“That project…” Derrick began, noticing everyone’s gaze on him, he couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. “I didn’t mean anything else, I just think it’s not good to air our dirty laundry and constantly change personnel for the project.”
Frequent changes of project managers in the past were not good.
Thomas looked at Claudia, his eyes darkened.
The fortune teller’s words echoed in Thoma s’s ears, and he furrowed his brow.
Before he could speak, Claudia quickly said, “Let’s leave this matter to Ervin. After all, he is the heir of the Friedan family, and I have no objections to giving it to him or anyone else.”
Regardless of whether Thomas is willing or not, she does not want to have any involvement with this project anymore.
Upon hearing her words, Thoma s’s expression finally improved a bit.
Anyway, what the fortune teller said still planted a thorn in his heart.
“Then let Elva handle this matter on the surface, but privately, let Ervin take over.”
