Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1922: Summer Hall Side Story (124)

Although when Adrian Richards found out that the collapse of the New Horse company was actually related to his older nephew, he was so angry that he almost rushed to the Hall Family to tear the roof off.

But he was self-aware enough to swallow his pride.

Not only did he have to swallow it, but he also had to put on a smiling face and come to apologize.

"Harry, your mom is my sister. I can’t just tie her up and make her shut her mouth, can I? What do you want your uncle to do so you’ll let him off the hook?"

Adrian Richards said anxiously.

Let me tell you, not just over at New Horse, but even the Richards Clan is on the brink now. If this continues, we’re really done for.

"Harry, your uncle is innocent. The things your mother did, I didn’t ask her to do them. How can you blame it all on your uncle?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

He was furious inside, but still had to speak softly to Harry Hall, pleading for mercy.

Harry Hall was sitting next to Helen Melendy. Unlike Adrian Richards’ anxiety, he maintained a lazy posture. After listening to Adrian, he laughed and said:

"Uncle, you can’t say that. The Richards Clan is where it is today because of my mom. It was the Hall Clan that helped you out. Now she’s at fault, you all have to bear it. You can’t just enjoy the good times and leave her to handle the bad times alone, can you?"

Though Harry Hall had a smile on his face, his eyes were filled with endless danger.

Adrian Richards’ face twitched several times at Harry Hall’s retort.

This nephew is really something, giving no face to his uncle, saying whatever he wants.

He looked at Harry Hall’s barely smiling lips, feeling his teeth itch with anger, but could only keep his face in a stiff smile.

"Harry, you’re right. Your uncle can’t just take the benefits without taking responsibility."

With New Horse already collapsed, it’s impossible to rise again relying on Harry Hall’s power. He might as well be sensible and not argue about it, instead saying nice things to protect the main company of the Richards Clan.

"Look, Uncle’s businesses at New Horse have been shut down, which is a lesson for both Uncle and your mom. Can you let Uncle off the hook this once? Your mom, Uncle will make sure to restrain her, okay?"

Harry Hall looked at his stiffly smiling mouth, seemingly contemplating his request.

Adrian Richards also looked at him expectantly, and after a moment, he heard him say:

"Then I’ll listen to Uncle. I hope Uncle will also keep his promise to me."

Adrian Richards heaved a long sigh of relief and nodded:

"Alright, alright, don’t worry, leave your mom to me."

With the matter weighing on his heart resolved, all three members of the Richards family were relieved. Shannon Richards, who had been daydreaming, also felt she was a few steps closer to the true aristocracy.

She felt her glass slipper was ready in hand, just waiting for a prince to put it on her.

With this thought, she involuntarily pressed a little closer to Helen Melendy.

Helen Melendy frowned with some aversion, glancing at her thoughtfully.

Was Shannon Richards simply trying to please her for the sake of the Richards Clan, or did she have some other thoughts?

Helen Melendy had a poor impression of Shannon Richards, but considering that the Richards family had already suffered enough with so many companies collapsing, she didn’t plan to pursue it further.

But that doesn’t mean she would be saintly enough to actually want to become good friends or best in-laws with someone like Shannon Richards.
