The Abandoned Husband Dominates novel Chapter 662

Charleston immediately became angry. “B*stard! What do you mean by that? Are you trying to sow discord between us?”

Shaun smiled. “Mr. Steele, don’t be angry. I’m just saying what I think! That day, when I returned home and checked the surveillance cameras, I realized that although Jordan caused my mother’s death, he didn’t do it on purpose.

“My mother wanted to control his mind, but she suffered a backlash. Her body was already quite weak, so she died. For this reason, I can forgive Jordan and not make a fuss about him causing my mother’s death. But in return, you have to stop your plan to use the other families to deal with me. Tomorrow, you have to take back what you said at today’s meeting! Deal?”

Charleston considered this proposal very carefully.

Jordan did not purposely murder Shaun’s mother. She was killed by the backlash from trying to take over Jordan’s mind. As such, Jordan could not be held responsible.

As long as Charleston turned a blind eye to the matter between the Handley and Schmid families, the Steeles and Handleys would stay out of each other’s way. It was a good thing for everyone.

Charleston thought for a moment. “Alright then, tomorrow, I will take back my suggestion to hold next year’s meeting in your castle!”

Shaun smiled. “Very good. I knew you were a smart person. It’s getting late. I should go.”

Having achieved his goal, Shaun stood up to leave.

Charleston suddenly felt a little guilty. He quickly said, “Mr. Handley! There’s one more thing. I hope you can let Lota off! Don’t hurt her!”

Shaun turned and gave a strange smile. “Hehe, I watched Lota grow up. I love her more than anyone else. You should take care of your own family. You don’t have to worry about mine! Goodbye!”

With that, Shaun turned and left.

Charleston couldn’t help clenching his fists. Shaun was really arrogant to dare to speak to him like this! From his words, it was clear that it was only a matter of time before Shaun snatched this girl away.

After Shaun left, Jordan returned with Lota, holding her cold hand.

Jordan asked, “Grandpa, how was it?”

Charleston said slowly, “He admitted that he is Shaun Handley! But how did he manage to control Tom Schmid? If he can ‘possess’ us, then everyone from the secret families would have already become his puppets. He shouldn’t have reached that level yet.”

Jordan nodded. “I believe it has something to do with the accessories that Tom is wearing. Grandpa, did you notice that Tom and his wife have a lot of accessories on them, especially on their necks, ears and hands? Moreover, they look like ancient tribal accessories. They’re made of stones, beads and so on. They’re not Chanel or diamonds.”

Charleston nodded. “That’s right. The Handleys are from New Orleans and that place is well-known for the occult. Looks like the Handleys gave those accessories to Tom and his wife. Jordan, you have to be careful when you go out in the future. Don’t let strangers get close to you. Otherwise, if the Handleys managed to place those accessories on you, you might be controlled by them!”

Jordan said, “I will, Grandpa.”

Charleston sighed and looked at the pallid-looking Lota.

“Lota, I have to apologize to you. I promised you that I would get the other families to go to Switzerland together next year to help save your parents. However, I have to go back on my word now. I have to rescind my proposal at tomorrow’s meeting.”

Lota immediately felt despair. “You don’t plan to help me?”

Jordan was also very agitated. “Grandpa, why do you have to rescind it? Why did you agree to that b*stard’s demands? Did he threaten you?”
