Chapter 219
Clarence let out a sneer when he heard Kingsley say he was going to Wynn Manor. “What is this? Are you regretting it now? It is too late for that!”
He waved the file in his hand. “The contract is in black and white, and I now have it in my hand. It is pointless for you to play any tricks!”
Looking at Clarence’s evil expression, Mason outwardly showed his disdain as he chided, “Clarence Wynn, how can you talk to Mr. Nicholson that way?!”
Clarence looked dumbstruck and he was at a loss for words.
It took him a while to remember that Kingsley was Mason’s savior!
I must have made the God of War unhappy by behaving too complacently!
Thinking of this, Clarence quickly lowered his head and said respectfully, “Yes, yes. You are right. Let’s go back to the Wynn Manor together.”
Kingsley’s eyes had a glint at that moment.
Mason was still like an old fox just a moment ago, but he had begun to defend Kingsley after knowing who he was.
Kingsley had a feeling that his guess was right—Mason and Gavin were both his father’s old friends!
“Sir—”
Kingsley was about to speak when Mason waved him off.
“We have time to talk about our business in the future. Let’s deal with the Wynn Family for now.”
“Sounds good.”
The two smiled knowingly as they stopped talking.
However, Clarence thought he felt his heart skip a beat.
Deal with the Wynn Family?
What does he mean by that?
Before Clarence made sense of those words, Kingsley had already dragged Reene out of the villa with him.
Clarence gritted his teeth then. “No matter what kinds of tricks that punk has up his sleeves, Reene will never recover from this as long as I have the contract!”
…
The four of them rode in two different cars as they went back to the Wynn Manor one after the other.
As soon as they heard the sound of brakes from the yard, everyone in the Wynn Family hurried out to welcome them.
Even the pale-faced Henry had come to the door with the help of a few youngsters.
“Clarence, how did it go?” Henry urged breathlessly. “Reene… Did she sign the contract…”
“Dad! She signed it!” Clarence excitedly waved the file in his hand. “She is now responsible for all the debts! The Wynns have finally pulled through!”
As soon as Henry heard this, his eyes looked brighter than ever, and even his face had regained its rosy hue.
“Come in quick. Show me the contract…”
Just then, Reene’s car also drove into the yard, startling Henry.
“Why did she follow you back? Don’t tell me she is regretting signing the contract.”
“Haha! Don’t worry, Dad. The contract has already been signed. There is no use in regretting.”
Henry was completely relieved after listening to Clarence’s words. With a hearty laugh, he said, “Actually, she came at the right time. We shall take the opportunity to have a clean cut with her!”
As he spoke, he glanced at Elijah and Ysabel, who were standing off to one side, and instructed, “She is your adopted daughter. If you don’t want to repay the 50 million with her, you had better terminate your relationship with her as soon as possible! Otherwise, the Wynns will abandon you altogether!”
Elijah was shocked when he heard that, but he quickly blabbered, “Yes, Dad. We will do it immediately! Immediately!”
Ysabel, too, was trembling with fear as she tugged at Elijah and urged in a shaky voice, “You have a classmate who works for the Ministry of Civil Affairs, don’t you? Call him now! Tell him we want to terminate Reene’s adoption right this instant!”
“Yes, yes. I will give him a call right away. I will do it right now!”
After entering the living room of the Wynn Manor, Kingsley unrestrainedly plopped down on the sofa and with his legs crossed, he started fiddling with his phone.
He was currently sending a text to both Lancer and Daniel.
Even though the Wynns were displeased with his attitude, none of them said anything when Mason didn’t make a comment.
Henry read the contract over and over and cheered, “Good! This is good… We might have lost the company, but at least our family is safe!”
Reene’s pretty face had turned pale at this point. “Grandpa, don’t you think this is too much? The family is safe indeed, but how am I supposed to pay off the 50 million?!”
“That is your business. What does it have to do with me?” Henry looked at the contract with a smile. “As long as our family stands strong, I couldn’t care less about you!”
Clarence also added, “That is right! You signed the contract voluntarily. We didn’t force you! If you want to blame someone, blame it on Kingsley for encouraging you to sign it!”
As soon as Ysabel heard that Kingsley was the one who prompted Reene to sign it, she immediately jumped up and pointed at Kingsley while she spat, “Haven’t I always said that this little toy boy is a jinx?! I knew I was right!”
