Chapter 318: A Resolution

LOUIS’ POV

"What the hell was that yesterday?" My father asked me. I sat across his desk in his office at the Carrington HQ.

He a grave expression on his face. After the trip to Redwood 3 days ago my father requested to see immediately. I had ignored his calls and texts on the way to Redwood and even lied about being sick. A sacrifice I was willing to make if I could prioritise Jasmine’s safety. I was ready to face the consequences so I wouldn’t cower in front of my father.

"Well?!" he asked again he was fuming.

"I went to help Jasmine," I answered keeping it short and to the point.

His lips pressed into a thin line as he stared at me. "I hear the Chairman is dead," he told me in a small voice that told me he was at a loss for words.

"Yes," I answered slowly.

"Louis, this relationship with Chairman Acland’s wife has proven to be quite disruptive and imposing if I do say so myself. Now there’s murder involved this has become more serious than it needed to be. What if you had died!" he yelled out.

"I apologize, fath--" I started but he quickly interrupted me.

"--No you’re not. Clearly," he snapped at me.

There are rumors spreading about the two of you that I am far from comfortable hearing," he complained. "I didn’t want to step step in but at this point if you’re going to behanve eratically I won’t allow you to trave

"If you’re upset with me for lying to you, I apologize. However, I will not end my relationship with Jasmine just because you told me to.

"Louis," he called my name.

"I already told you before father. If you don’t then you simply remove me from the position of acting CEO."

His eyes narrowed as they looked at me.

"Just because I need you at the HQ doesn’t mean you can fool around and push things to the limit," he said annoyed.

"I wasn’t trying to father," I said earnestly. He put in this position out of the blue. I didn’t ask him for it.

"You still have plenty of work to do," he spat out but you see he wasn’t happy. "Leave seeing you is pissing me off. "

Looks like he wasn’t firing me after all he needed me. Not gthat I was trying to sound cocky. I turned away and made to leave his office.

"You and Robert, both my sons. It always something." I heard him mutter under his breath.

I ignored as I placed my hand on the door handle.

"Wait," he suddenly called out to me. My hand paused on the handle. I turned back to face him."How is Jasmine?" he asked.

My eyebrows sprang up skeptically. Why was he asking?

"She’s fine just has some injuries she’s healing from," I informed him.

I finally left his office and headed for my office.

The police had officially reported and now it was sinking that the nightmare was over.
