Chapter 360

However, compared to the Wood family, the Carters were much weaker.

In a daze, Rachel bid Matthew farewell and returned home.

Seeing her return, Fred rushed over. "What happened? Weren't you supposed to be negotiating a deal? How did it turn into a conflict? You've caused a huge problem this time!"

Rachel recounted the events of the meeting and ended with a sigh. "This time, it really wasn't Matthew's fault. Isaac went too far. He tried to take me away right in front of Matthew. No man would be able to tolerate that." But...
