Three years of loving him, three days to erase myself from his world novel Chapter 222

Cassandra also stepped forward and sneered, "Exactly, Mr. Lowell. Clara almost killed Chase! She must pay!"

"..."

Julian narrowed his eyes, his expression turning frigid.

The sudden shift made Cassandra and Miriam panic for a split second. This was the man who had taken over Lowell Industries at twenty-two and ruthlessly carved a path to the absolute top of the pyramid. Achievements like that weren't meant for ordinary men.

Julian scoffed. "You claim Clara hurt Chase, but the reality is Chase assaulted her, and she had to fight back. It was self-defense! Doesn't it bother your conscience to bully an innocent woman like this?"

Miriam was left speechless but still fumed with indignation.

Cassandra felt the sting of his words.

She bit the bullet and argued back, "It's true Chase wronged her first, and she had the right to defend herself, but she went entirely overboard! Chase was almost killed! We all know the law. She deserves to go to jail for this!"

Julian's face grew even colder. "And once she's in jail, you'll secretly use your connections to have her killed?"

Cassandra choked; that was exactly what she had planned.

Prisons were chaotic. If someone died and it was framed as an accident, no one would ever know the truth.

She turned her head away stubbornly. "It doesn't matter what I think. She's going to jail, and there's nothing you can do about it!"

The conversation hit a dead end.

Julian stared at her for a few seconds and smiled, though the amusement didn't reach his eyes.

"Fine. Very well. Since that's the case, let's talk business."

He pulled a folder from his briefcase and handed it to Alistair. He knew Alistair was the real decision-maker in this house and the only one currently possessing any shred of logic.

Alistair hesitantly took the folder and flipped it open. Reading the contents, he completely froze.

Miriam and Cassandra immediately leaned in, curiosity piqued.

Julian spoke smoothly. "This is the proposal for The North Sea Wind Farm Project. It's yours. In addition, I will hire the best medical specialists in the world for Chase to guarantee his full recovery."

"If handing all this over still isn't enough to make you back down..."
