Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1231

Chapter 1231 The Pressure Behind

Ryan supported his grandfather, who wasn't in good spirits, as they gloomily returned to the Yael Residence. The situation had turned overwhelming for the Yaels since no one expected Colton to be so ruthless.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

Impatiently, he took out his phone. Upon seeing the caller ID, he immediately answered the call with a sense of trepidation. It was their backer; he couldn't afford to offend them.

"I heard your bases were destroyed?"

A cacophony of electronic noises reached Ryan's ears, a sound he had become accustomed to. The backer never revealed their true voice when making phone calls.

"Yes, rest assured, we won't delay your goods," Ryan replied obsequiously, behaving humbly.

Meanwhile, Logan perked up his ears and listened carefully. After all, it could either be good or bad news to receive a call from their backer at this time.

"Huh, why should I continue to work with you guys when it has come to this? I'm only calling to tell you that if you leak even a hint of the buyer's information, I'll make things worse for you."

The backer's attitude was absolute, promptly hanging up the call, giving Ryan no chance to respond.

As Ryan listened to the busy tone on his phone, his heart turned to ashes. This time, the Yael Family is doomed for good…

Logan, relying on his cane, trembled his way to the couch. Before he could catch his breath, he slumped into the seat.

"Grandpa!" Ryan shouted, rushing to Logan upon hearing the unusual sound.

Colton's resentment alleviated somewhat as he watched the science academy demolish before him.

"Colton…"

Colton pressed his lips together tightly. He couldn't remember anything about being cursed. There wasn't even a single clue. He didn't know if Evelyn's words were sincere, but with her putting it that way, he couldn't simply ignore it…

"Get in the car," demanded Colton before entering the driver's seat. Nothing but impassiveness enveloped his face.

Even so, Evelyn was in seventh heaven, somewhat triumphant even. She dared not linger for too long and got into the car in two shakes. She turned her head and looked affectionately at Colton. He was the man she had always loved so deeply.

"Sit in the back." Colton's brows were knitted tightly. The fact that Evelyn chose to sit in the front passenger seat so readily upset him. The seat was reserved for Nicole and Nicole only.

Evelyn was startled and turned even grimmer after taking a moment to come around. Still, she muttered, "Sorry."

With that, she swiftly changed seats. However, her countenance never brightened up after that.
