Chapter 166 - Confrontation Between Zoras And Emersons (1/2)

Ch-165

”What are you doing with Emerson's?” Valene asked.

”Even though we aren't up to the level of Emerson's group. I will try to fight for my daughter even if I have to go bankrupt. She isn't a toy for that bastard to play with. I will walk around the globe if needed to find a good groom for her.” he said.

”I will help you,” Valene said.

”No, Thanks. I have taken the blow once. Taking it twice doesn't matter to me. But you are different. And in fact, this is something I have to deal with as a father, not you,” Aiden said as he got up from his seat.

”Uncle, it's not th….” Valene wanted to say something but was cut off by Eric, who intruded in the middle, looking all serious and worried.

”Sir, Mr. Emerson, and Ms. Emerson are here to meet you,” Eric said.

Valene and Aiden furrowed their brows.

”Tell them we are busy. I need to attend an emergency board meeting,” Aiden said.

”Sir, but they aren't listening,” Eric said.

”That doesn't concern me. They can wait all along. I don't care,” Aiden said and started climbing.

”Sir, they are trying to break in. They seemed tense about something,” Eric informed.

”I don't have time. If you see them again. Tell them, I decided to cancel the marriage. And will be canceling projects we are doing with them too,” he said.

Eric felt like a person who would die in the battle between the villain and a hero. He wanted to go and jump from the highest building in the world and die. If he goes outside the Regan would kill him with his stare. And the little girl beside, she wore a police uniform and said if he didn't let them in, she would arrest him.

He was stuck between these people. He wondered why all of the people Eleanor only picked Cedric to marry him.

Eric cried with his imaginary tears. He wished even his mortal enemy shouldn't go through this.

Sighing at his sad fate, he did a small prayer to god about his well-being as he walked ahead. But to his horror, the Emerson's broke into their house without any invitation.

”Aiden!” Regan almost shouted. One could say he was trying to control himself and his anger.

”Mr. Emerson, please see yourself out. We are not accepting any guests, especially people with the surname Emerson,” Aiden said bluntly.

”Why did you send my child to jail?” Valene demanded.

”I didn't send. But my daughter did. But… after knowing the reason… I will make sure that he will be staying behind the bars as much as possible!” Aiden said as he raised his voice higher.

”What do you mean? They both are going to get married! He shouldn't be inside the jail. Ask Eleanor to take the complaint back and get him out!” Regan said.

”I will never do that,” Aiden shot back.

”I can make your company go bankrupt,” Regan said.

”I don't care. I would rather live in poverty than bury my daughter's self-respect and dignity!” Aiden said, making Regan's brows jump.

”What do you mean?” Regan asked, feeling confused. Katherine told him that Eleanor pushed him into jail for no reason listening to others' words. In a fit of rage, he stormed towards Zora's mansion.

Katherine was watching from sideways from the moment she entered Zora's mansion. She wasn't here to plead for her brother but to see if Eleanor was fine or not. She knew her brother did something wrong. But if she doesn't initiate her father, he wouldn't come here.

”Don't act as if you know nothing. You know about Cedric raping my daughter. Just to hide the fact, and make my daughter feel guilty towards him, you punished him by sending him overseas. Do you think I can't understand that?
