Chapter 2057
All humans were known to be selfish. If he were to force the other party into a corner, he would leave himself with little room to maneuver. It would only backfire if he was too eager to see immediate success. Joaqin was not an idiot, and this was not the time for him to act too obviously.
“Since you don‘t like Florence, I won‘t force you to accept the marriage arrangement.” Joaqin lifted his gaze.
“However, the Southerns should still provide me with an explanation on the incident where Neal Beck made a move on my daughter, shouldn‘t you?” Cameron fiddled with the empty teacup on the table.
“It‘s not difficult for us to explain that, but Ms. Serrano is the one who created a stir at the hall, so shouldn‘t she be the one who apologizes first?”
Joaqin was slightly displeased. “It‘s Florence‘s fault for making a scene at the hall, and she can apologize for that, but isn‘t that too intentional for him to beat her up to that extent?”
She asked him in return, “If someone were to cause trouble at The Serpents‘ event, would you let that person leave the scene unscathed?” Joaqin choked on his own words and could not utter a single word. Cameron stood up slowly.
“Why don‘t we each take a step back? I‘ll apologize to Ms. Serrano on Neal‘s behalf, and Ms. Serrano can come to us to deliver her apology personally when she gets discharged from the hospital. What do you think?”
Joaqin agreed to the suggestion.
Cameron burned the photo on the spot until it completely turned to ashes. “Then I’ll also keep my word.”
She walked out of the Serrano residence, and the female bodyguard was waiting for her in front of the car. “Mr. Southern, is everything resolved?”
She got into the car and said, “Joaqin is quite smart. You can consider the marriage arrangement dissolved.”
The female bodyguard looked back at her. “But Ms. Serrano has suffered quite a huge grievance, so she might not be willing to compromise.”
Cameron looked out the window. “It doesn‘t matter. Joaqin has been a smart man for most of his life, but he‘s destined to be ruined by his brainless daughter.”
