Chapter 148

“You’ve probably guessed what actually happened in the car accident two years ago, haven’t you, Mr. Coleman?” Christian inquired slowly, his gaze fixed steadily on Glen’s face.

For the first time, Glen talked about the car accident that occurred two years ago. “Regardless of who is in the right or wrong, Bella was ultimately injured while Victoria got her leg broken and was imprisoned,” he said after giving it some thought. “She has received the penalty that she deserved. And as for– ”

“You’re such a ‘great’ person.” Christian smiled and cut him off.

Glen couldn’t figure out what he meant and thought he was complimenting himself, so he continued saying, “Victoria deserved her punishment for doing something wrong. Although she is my daughter, I have to be reasonable and not stand on her side.”

“Yes, you’re a great man indeed.” Christian sniggered sarcastically.

Glen smiled. “As for the land in Glogan… ”

He did not finish his sentence, but it was obvious what he was implying.

“Take part in the auction the way you normally would. I’d suggest you prepare some cash in advance. Going to the bank for a loan is an option if the available cash in the company is insufficient. I have other stuff to do, so I’ll take my leave first.” Christian walked away without giving Glen a chance to speak.

From his expression today, it didn’t appear like he hated Victoria to the core, but rather…
