Chapter 244
Edward was the type of person who wanted to have his cake and eat it too–he wanted to grab Talley family’s wealth but still keep his good reputation. So, he would never let Julian’s evidence come to light.
“Mr. Graham doesn’t understand me very well. I’m someone who always protects my own. Even if it’s an ex–wife, she’s still mine. How could I allow someone to bully my people?” Julian didn’t sound particularly harsh when he said this, but his words carried a strong sense of pressure.
Edward’s already grim expression became even colder.
He was confident that he had control over Rosalie, but he also knew very well that he wasn’t a match for Julian–he didn’t even have the right to compete with him.
The feeling of being oppressed and frustrated made him think of the years when he had been suppressed by Talley family members.
“What do you want?” Finally, he gritted his teeth and asked. When facing Julian, he had no choice but to compromise.
“Admit to everything you’ve done and apologize to Rosalie.”
“No way!” Without hesitation, Edward refused. That was no different than having Julian expose everything.
Julian seemed to have guessed his thoughts and chuckled lightly, saying, “If you admit it yourself, the choice and method are yours to decide. But if I expose it for you…”
He deliberately paused and poured Edward another cup of coffee, acting polite and respectful, but it only made Edward feel mocked, not at ease.
“My methods won’t be so gentle. By then, you’ll regret it, Mr. Graham.”
He had put so much effort into this whole matter, and in the end, it was like losing both the woman and the battle!
When he returned to his office, he knocked everything off the desk and onto the floor.
“Julian!” Edward was so furious his eyes nearly bulged, and the usually gentle and elegant image he had in front of others now looked terrifying.
The secretary, who was about to enter, was startled when she saw Edward lose control for the first time. She quickly shut the door and stepped back
Claudia usually didn’t go to the office. After all, the company still bore the Talley name, and she didn’t want anyone to think that she, as the second wife, was eyeing the Talley family business.
Anyway, the Talley Group would eventually be Edward’s, so she didn’t feel the need to rush. But today, with Rosalie being thrown into the spotlight, it seemed like a time when the couple should share the joy together.
