His Wicked Obsession (Archer and Virginia) novel Chapter 258

"You are welcome to try, Mrs. Sutton."

He left it at that, but Richard's knees nearly buckled beneath him.

Who in the city didn't know how ruthless Archer could be?

With a single word from him, the Sutton family could be wiped off the map by tonight.

They couldn't afford to offend him, and they definitely couldn't afford to gamble against him.

Facing reality, Richard's spine slumped, as if he had aged ten years in a second.

Grabbing Eleanor, who still wanted to fight, he gritted his teeth and dragged her out the door.

...

Bayview Manor.

Eleanor collapsed onto the imported leather sofa, sobbing and blowing her nose messily.

Richard sat nearby with a dark scowl, sighing heavily.

"That ungrateful snake! He actually intends to disown his own parents! He thinks a single piece of paper will shake us off!" Eleanor shrieked sharply. "And that Archer Vanderbilt, what gives him the right to meddle in our family affairs?! What exactly is his angle!"

Chloe, dressed in silk loungewear, handed Eleanor a glass of warm honey tea, her face the picture of sympathy.

"Mom, don't upset yourself. Wesley... he might just be confused for a moment. Virginia has probably completely brainwashed him."

She had also had the door slammed in her face by Miles today. Though she offered comforting words, internally, she was cursing them out viciously.

*Two useless old fools!*

*They can't even handle a half-dead son who just woke up. What good are they for anything?!*

Richard yanked at his collar in frustration. "Confused? He's completely wide awake! Archer blocked every single path we had. We are entirely out of options now..."

After all, no one dared cross Vanderbilt Group.
