The Billionaire's Kick Ass Wife (Isabella Thompson) novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453

The person on the other end of the line remained silent for a moment before saying, ‘

Got it. Don’t tell Wesley about this. I’ll take care of it.”

Draxton’s phone had been on speaker mode, so when the President’s voice sounded,

everyone heard it clearly.

Patriarch Wheeler’s face suddenly turned pale, a trace of panic flashing across his

eyes.

Draxton hung up the phone and looked up at him, saying, “The Wheeler family will

soon be nothing.’

Patriarch Wheeler’s face became even paler.

Draxton turned to Isabella and said, “Bella, it’s done. Let’s go home.’

Isabella nodded and left with him.

Vernon and Harlow stood there. When meeting Draxton’s gaze, Vernon nodded

slightly and said, “Patriarch.’

Draxton nodded, without saying anything or looking at Harlow.

Harlow’s expression was solemn. From the way Draxton treated Jerico, he already

knew that the rumors about how ruthless Draxton was were true.

He did not say anything but watched Draxton leave with Vernon.

After Draxton and the others left, Patriarch Wheeler looked dejectedly at the mess in

the hall.

However, when he saw Shelly standing not far away from Vernon, he got a plan.

He walked up to Vernon and said, Mr. Vernon, I didn’t expect such a thing to happen

today. I’m sorry for my negligence. How about I let Shelly take you upstairs for some

coffee?”

Shelly looked shyly at Vernon and said, “Mr. Vernon and this mister, please come up

with me.”

Vernon immediately figured out what was on Patriarch Wheeler’s mind. In fact, his

adoptive father, the person in charge of the Vernon Group, had the same thought.

Vernon never went against his adoptive father’s wishes. However, when he thought of

the phone call Draxton had just made to the President, he believed that he had

enough reasons not to marry someone from the Wheeler family.

If the Wheeler family lost the President’s favor, it would be meaningless to connect

them by marriage.

What’s more, the Wheeler family was cooperating with the Chancely family. They

were so greedy that they wanted to get benefits from both sides. It seemed like they

were biting off more than they could chew.

Vernor sneered. Instead of going upstairs with Shelly, he said to Patriarch Wheeler,

Jerico has been provoking the Vernon Group ever since he came to Lucsia. Two days

ago, my subordinates from Star Society were attacked by his men, and a dozen of

them were killed or injured. I’m here to get even with him today.

‘ But now that Jerico is already so miserable, I’ll just let it go. Mr. Wheeler, be smart.
