Chapter 1359
Samuel was so infuriated that he lost his composure.
“You imbecile! Didn’t I tell you not to mess with Roxanne? Why didn’t you listen? Do you want our entire family to
pay the price with our lives?” Samuel tightened his grip with each second.
Aubree was losing her breath as she struggled, causing her to knock something off the floor, which produced a loud
sound.
Upon hearing the sound, Gina hurriedly went over to comfort Aubree as she thought the latter was throwing things
out of anger.
However, the sight of Samuel strangling Aubree was what greeted her right after she went through the door.
“Samuel, what are you doing?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGina’s knees went weak for a while before she rushed to them and pried Samuel off of Aubree.
Falling to the floor, Aubree held her neck while panting heavily.
“What happened? Wasn’t everything fine earlier? Sonya has even agreed to ask Lucian for forgiveness on our
behalf. Why did you lose your temper again?” Gina questioned in dissatisfaction as her heart broke for her
daughter.
“What did I lose my temper again, you ask? Why don’t you ask this imbecile of yours about what she did? Because
of her, Lucian’s outraged once again! Not to mention Sonya, even Mr. Elias can’t save us this time!”
As Gina heard that, her hand on Aubree’s back froze as she stared at the latter in disbelief. “What did you do this
time?”
In a state of frenzy, Aubree shouted, “I didn’t do anything wrong! That b*tch asked for it! She was the one who
messed with me first!”
When her words fell, Samuel slapped her so hard she fell to the floor again. “You still show no remorse, huh? You’re
grounded from now on! Don’t even think of stepping foot outside of this house!”
Wearing a gloomy look, Aubree held her cheek.
Roxanne, that b*tch! I will never forgive her!
Lucian kept his word. He showed Pearson Group no mercy.
In just a short period of time, nearly all business partners of Pearson Group put their termination contracts forward
on the grounds that the Pearsons might ruin their reputation.
Not only could Pearson Group not afford to pay a single penny of the liquidated damages, but they could possibly
face a huge sum of compensation as well.
That night, the Pearson family members gathered in Samuel’s living room.
“What exactly did Aubree do to get Farwell Group to target us like this, Samuel?” asked someone who could remain
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcalm, trying to clarify with Samuel to see if there was a way to make things right.
However, Samuel was too embarrassed to speak.
The members of the Pearson family had not been that supportive of the marriage contract between Aubree and
Lucian.
Initially, they welcomed the idea, as they could gain Farwell Group’s support, but after observing Lucian’s attitude in
the past few years, they suggested dissolving the marriage contract. After all, they were certain Lucian would not
stop supporting them because of the favor he owed Old Mr. Pearson. If they delayed further, Lucian’s patience
might run thin.
Even so, Samuel and his family did not believe it as they clung to hope, only to backfire when the prophecy came
true—Farwell Group ruthlessly oppressed Pearson Group as a result of a falling out.
“This is all your fault!” someone scolded. “What do you plan to do now?”
Forcing a smile, Samuel replied, “I’ll ask Aubree to come here now so she can apologize to all of you.”
As his words fell, Gina quickly had someone call Aubree to the living room.
