Obedience No More He's the One I Deserved novel Chapter 531

Chapter 531 Letting Go

If things continent as projected, Victor and the would soon be ripped of real authority The people she’d carefully built up inside the company woved all be replaced

This was Vincent’s way of forcing her forward,

Micah noticed something was off between themed aked in a low voice, “What does that mean? What happened?”

“It’s nothing”

Dawn said, “Focus on recovering, I need to make a call”

“Dawn, can you stop keeping things from me?”

“I..”

Dawn opened her mouth, but didn’t know where to begin.

Micah and Vincent hadn’t met yet, and he didn’t know about all the messy past. But she knew very well that based on everything that had happened before, even if they met, their relationship wouldn’t be good.

She let out a breath and forced herself to stay calm.

“It’s not a big deal. Let me make a call first, okay? Watch him for me.”

The last part was directed at Mason.

Dawn left the hospital room and walked out to an empty balcony.

Maybe it was payback for yesterday. Vincent took a while to answer this time too. His voice was still warm and gentle. “Dawn, what is it? Do you need something?”

“Mason said you sent someone back to Crestavia to help me. Is that true?”

“Yes.”

Vincent sounded completely at ease, as if it were perfectly reasonable. “Didn’t you say you wanted to rest for a while and spend time with Micah? Jennifer’s very capable. You can trust her with anything.”

“Is it that I can trust her, or that you can trust her?”

“Dawn, watch your tone.”

Chapter 531 Letting Go

“What tone would you prefer?”

+20 Free Coins

Dawn was always respectful in front of Vincent, but she’d never been submissive like others. “You handed the company to me, and I arranged positions based entirely on my own judgment. Now you suddenly plant someone in the company. A lot of people won’t accept that, especially me.”

“So you don’t want Jennifer to go?”

“Yes.”

The single word landed heavily. Silence fell on both ends of the line.

After a long while, Vincent let out a low laugh.

It was different from his usual gentle tone. His mood clearly wasn’t good, carrying a faint chill.

“Dawn, I’ve told you clearly. The future of Stonewarden Group is yours. But at my age, there aren’t many things I care about… And the most important one is avenging your mother. Why can’t you understand that?”

Dawn clenched her hand tightly. Two seconds later, she asked hoarsely, “Are you .. threatening me?”

“Of course not.” Vincent laughed again, but given the timing and the topic, it sounded forced. “It’s just that, Dawn… you know how I feel about your mother. Now that Micah has been found, shouldn’t we make the one who was at fault give her justice?”

Shouldn’t we?

At the beginning, Dawn had thought so too.

But after so much time, after doing so many things, she sometimes questioned her original

intent.

If making that person pay with his life counted as justice for Vera, then shouldn’t his descendants come after her in return? Wouldn’t that also be justice?

She could no longer tell what revenge even meant.

Vincent didn’t hear her speak for a long time and sighed.

“Dawn… no one wants you to forget about the past more than I do. But your mother… She’s still there, waiting for us. Can we really live with ourselves if we just move on?”

Dawn didn’t respond. The phone slowly slid from her ear as she ended the call.

Chapter 581 Lemting Go

The balcony was quiet.

From this angle, the people downstairs looked like fine animals, smiling as they hurried back and forth. A wave of hot air blew toward he, making her eyes sing

She lifted her gaze toward the distance. Northville’s air was always had. At the farthest point, you couldn’t even see where the sky ended. Maybe Mom is somewhere that far away

“Mom”

Dawn called softly. The sound was quickly scattered by the wind.

Do you want me to keep going forward?

Or stop?

In her memories, Vera had been such a good person. She would never want a good person to

suffer.

Dawn figured that if Vera saw her in this much pain now, she would probably want her to slow down and rest.

Dawn covered her face with both hands, sinking into her own world.

At this moment, she completely fell apart.

That night, Jennifer’s flight landed at Northville Airport right on schedule.

Mason went to pick her up and settled her into a five–star hotel near the company. Afterward, he called Dawn. “Ms. West, it looks like Jennifer will report to the company tomorrow. Should we do anything?”

Dawn was playing video games with Micah. She paused when she heard that and said calmly, “If she wants to go, let her. Let’s see what Ms. Nowak can actually pull off.”

Someone even Mason didn’t know was unlikely to be simple.

The outcome matched Dawn’s expectations.

At 8 a.m. the next day, Jennifer called an all–staff meeting. Anyone who was late would be marked absent without leave.
