Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau-Chapter 468 - 254: Business Is Business

Autumn Stetford felt a bit heartbroken when she saw her twenty-year-old daughter cautiously asking if she could keep this friend.

She knew her daughter was so obedient and adorable, but she also knew, because of their family’s special status, her daughter was destined not to be like ordinary families’ girls.

She hardened her heart and smiled, saying: "Betty can have good friends, but this girl has already made your father angry. Do you still want to be good friends with her? In your mind, can a girl you’ve just met be closer than your mom and dad?"

Autumn’s words immediately made Ruby Sheldon change her mind.

She quickly shook her head and said: "Of course not! If dad and mom say she’s bad, then she is bad. Naturally, I trust that my parents wouldn’t lie to me."

"Silly child." Autumn felt even more sorry for her, holding her in her arms and affectionately cuddling her for a while.

Such a situation had happened too many times during Ruby Sheldon’s growing up.

Anyone who provoked Ruby Sheldon would make Aiden Sheldon fall ill and get furious; Autumn knew this scene all too well.

She naturally wouldn’t intervene in this matter.

As long as Ruby Sheldon was okay, and Ruby was truly a very obedient good child, Autumn was very satisfied with that.

A son strives, a daughter is filial, a husband is loyal, and the family is prestigious.

Autumn was very satisfied with her life condition and didn’t want any extra troubles, just pretending this incident hadn’t happened.

...

In the lavish hall of the mansion’s living room, Ryan Sheldon sat obediently under Aiden Sheldon, opposite Lucas Harlow.

Richard Stetford was very pleased after drinking two cups of tea his son poured for him.

Lucas Harlow only spoke to Aiden Sheldon after soothing his father: "Brother-in-law, today’s matter should be separated. Lawrence played a joke on Betty, and you’ve intimidated her; she’s also apologized, so this matter should be done with. But Ryan caused someone else on the highway to nearly have a car accident; that matter cannot just pass like this."

Aiden Sheldon raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Oh? You’re here on behalf of that young lady to seek justice from me? Alright, let her come herself, I’ll talk compensation with her."

"Brother-in-law, how can you say that?" Lucas Harlow was even more unsatisfied, "I said the matters should be separated, and you’ve mixed them together by intimidating her, why bother? Who are you? What’s your status? Is it necessary to use such underhanded means against an innocent girl?"

Ryan Sheldon listened in a daze, interrupting Lucas Harlow with dissatisfaction, "Uncle, what are you talking about? Didn’t we compensate her? If not, do you think they would let me leave?"

Up until now, Ryan Sheldon still didn’t know how he left the police station.

Lucas Harlow said coldly: "Of course not. You have a good dad who intimidated them, threatening to implicate her family; the girl was so scared she gave up pursuing your liability and didn’t receive any compensation."

"Huh?! That’s possible?!" Ryan Sheldon scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, and said: "Actually... in fact... I really behaved quite excessively, if I didn’t compensate her, I’d feel bad. Dad... you didn’t have to be so good to me..."

"Who was good to you? Even if you were locked in the police station, I wouldn’t care." Aiden Sheldon didn’t even lift an eyelid, "It’s her own fault for provoking your sister. Anyone daring to take advantage of your sister hasn’t been born yet in this world."

Ryan Sheldon: "..."

Feeling some heartbreak.

But he was used to such blows and wasn’t really bothered.

Just thinking about the girl being involved because of him, and finally being precisely struck by his father, he felt quite bad.

He glanced at Aiden Sheldon, then at Lucas Harlow, and finally said: "How about this, I’ll compensate her. Uncle, don’t you know her? Help me get in touch, I’ll transfer the money directly to her bank account, okay?"

Lucas Harlow thought, who wants your money?

What he wanted was Aiden Sheldon’s attitude.

Because he knew all too well what kind of people his sister and brother-in-law were.

Aiden Sheldon noticed his thoughts, picked up the teacup, opened the lid, and blew, half-smiling, saying: "Lucas, I’ve agreed not to pursue responsibility against her and her family, which is unprecedented. Don’t press your luck."

"Press my luck?" Lucas Harlow finally couldn’t hold back and stood up from his chair, saying word by word: "Brother-in-law, I don’t understand your past matters, so I’ve never said anything. But this time, the person you’re targeting is my good friend and also my agent. I’ll say it again, she didn’t do anything wrong, much less anything bad!"
