Chapter 696 Connor Gives Shares to Avery

Owen was furious; calling the police was tantamount to courting death.

"Owen, you don't need to call the police. I've already done it for you," Jasmine said calmly.

Owen was stunned for a moment, looking at the police officer walking in from outside. "Connor, what do you mean?"

Connor remained silent, his gaze cold and stern.

"Owen, you are suspected of coercing a minor and face multiple charges. Come with us," the police officer said, ready to take Owen away.

Owen's face instantly darkened, and he looked at Connor with a cold, threatening gaze.

"Connor! You've got some nerve now?" Owen sneered. "Very well, it seems you're planning to go against me?"

Connor clenched his fists. He knew Owen's character; even if he lost, he would never let Connor off easily. He would drag him down to hell with him.

"Do you think this means you've won? How naive." Owen laughed, standing up to leave with the police.

He wasn't afraid of prison; it was just a delay tactic by these people.

"Owen, make sure to reform yourself well in prison." Jasmine stood up, warning Owen before her gaze fell on Deborah.

Deborah was a bit flustered. "Dad, I'll find a way."

Deborah needed Owen out because he was her support. Without him, as an

illegitimate Hawthorne, holding Cunningham Group shares would be risky. Plus, she

had a bet agreement with Avery and couldn't afford to lose.

"Why panic?" Owen said in a deep voice, telling Deborah not to worry.

Deborah took a deep breath, and after Owen left, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

She realized she might not need Owen anymore.

"Without Owen, what are you?" Jasmine retorted with the same words Deborah had once used to mock her.
