Chapter 168: Scare Them

“No, it’s not me!”

The veins on Joseph’s forehead bulged, and as if he’d lost his mind, he grabbed Claire’s neck in a choke–hold with such force that the veins on the back of his hand popped out.

“I love Winona so much, how could I kill her? It wasn’t me! Claire, what kind of conspiracy do you have? What does the Summers family want? Tell me… Now!”

Claire coughed violently, unable to speak at all with her neck choked.

She was unable to breathe, her face turned red and she raised her hands, grabbing Joseph’s hands around her neck as hard as she could.

“Let… Me… Go…”

Just then, the door of the lounge was suddenly kicked open from outside, an agile figure quickly ran to Joseph’s side, he grabbed Joseph’s hand that was choking Claire’s neck and forced Joseph to release his hand.

Joseph turned around and his eyes widened at the sight of the man, “Sean!”

It was exactly Sean.

Just yesterday, Sean had gotten word of Joseph’s arrival in Brighton, and that was when Claire had been planning how to meet Joseph.

She had to be alone with Joseph if she wanted to get something out of him, because it was only when they were alone that Joseph would let his guard down

with her and tell her what she wanted to know.

Sean loved Claire so much, how could he really let Claire turn around and leave in anger because of his jealousy?

All of this was just Claire’s way of creating an opportunity for Joseph to get closer to her.

Sean shook Joseph’s hand away with all his might, then bent down to help Claire to her feet, looking at the fingerprints on Claire’s neck, anger appeared in his eyes.

“Sir…”

Claire coughed hard and gripped Sean’s arm hard with both hands.

Joseph, no matter what, was her father, although there was no love between them and this was the first time they had met, they were undoubtedly father and daughter.

She couldn’t do anything to her father no matter what.

“Let’s go.”

Sean gave Joseph a sharp, warning and intimidating look before he helped Claire toward the door.
