Chapter 2395
As Dillon's family gradually left, Mr. Riddle's Sr.'s expression turned somber. He fixed his gaze on the entrance hall, lost in his thoughts.
Meanwhile, Karen exasperatedly pulled Dillon outside. "How could you just leave? Isn't it as good as admitting you did it?"
"So what, if I denied it? Isn't it obvious that I fell into their trap?" Dillon hit the ceiling.
"Dad, you're saying that Everett forged the evidence? He's too shady!" Raine gritted her teeth. The battle between the heirs of the Riddle family had yet to be determined, yet she was kicked out of the running just like that. It was clear that Raine was infuriated.
"The fact that Dad believed them so easily... He really is biased," Karen complained.
Seeing the family's disgruntled expressions, James advised, "We still have a shot."
"What do you mean?" Karen frowned.
"Grandpa said he would cut off ties with us. But he didn't say he would take back DillCorp. He didn't burn the bridge. As long as we operate the company well, we could secretly find Everett’s faults. When the time comes, we'll be able to turn the tables on him," James explained.
"Hmm, you're right." Dillion nodded, satisfied. This was why he was willing to leave just now. DillCorp was still in their hands, Dillion was convinced Mr. Riddle Sr. would take back DillCorp if he continued to make a fuss. It would be utter defeat if that happened.
"No wonder you asked me to leave." Raine breathed a sigh of relief. She was alright as long as things did not turn out to be a complete failure.
"Besides, Everett lost out to us this time, so we're not exactly defeated. His days won't be any better than ours," James added.
