Chapter 458

There was nothing else.
And all of this was only related to Charlotte. Besides that, there was no other
way to provoke Frank
However, Felix, who had always maintained a facade of stability while enjoying a good time outside, was unwilling to believe that Frank’s drastic actions were
all for Charlotte!
The words Felix had said to Charlotte were all about persuading her to reconcile with Ryan.
While he had kept this from Ryan, he had still acted under Ryan’s name. Outsiders would naturally associate him with Ryan.
Would Frank really risk offending Ryan over this?
Alan looked at him indifferently. “Frank asked me to tell you, if you provoke him again, it won’t be as simple as breaking a leg.”
With that, Alan turned to leave.
Felix, still shocked, quickly asked, “May I ask… what is Ms. Wilson’s relationship with Mr. Smith?”
He needed to understand how badly he had offended Frank today.
If it was just about standing up for a lover, then if he could humble himself for a while, it would be fine.
But if it was more serious…
Alan turned back. “A relationship that must end in marriage.”
Felix was stunned for a moment, but his mind worked quickly. He stammered, ” B–but… wasn’t it rumored that Mr. Smith had been looking for the Shaw family’s eldest daughter for over twenty years? Why is he now marrying Ms. Wilson…”
Alan’s voice was even and steady. “Ms. Wilson is the eldest daughter of the Shaw family.”

Felix felt as though he had been struck by lightning!
He couldn’t believe Charlotte was so fortunate.
He kept replaying in his mind what he had said to that lady in the underground Gar park!
“You really think you’re a catch?”
“She’s just a bitch.”
“Acting so aloof in front of me?”
“Do you really think you can marry into the Smith family?”
“I’m waiting for the day you get yourself into a mess!”
The more he thought about it, the more Felix wanted to hit his head against the wall.
He had failed to win Ryan’s favor and ended up offending Frank as well.
Given Frank’s rumored attachment to his fiancee and his ruthless methods, Felix even suspected that Charlotte hadn’t relayed his exact words to Frank.
Otherwise, the consequences might not be limited to just a broken leg
The only way out was to grovel and beg Charlotte for forgiveness.
