Chapter 274
“Put the phone on speaker,” Lorne said.
Daniel complied and put the phone on speaker.
Then, he was dumbfounded when he heard the voice on the phone.

“The boy’s been spoiled rotten. Today, I’ll trouble you to discipline him in my stead. But… he is my grandson after all. I hope you can spare his life for my sake.”

On the other end of the phone, Lorne’s eyes flashed with emotion when he heard Raven’s words.
Lorne understood that, given Raven’s personality, she would never have let Daniel off so easily if it weren’t for Lorne.

Raven smiled faintly. “Since that’s settled, there’s nothing else. You should get back to work.”
Daniel nodded repeatedly. “Alright, alright.”
After his somewhat fawning words faded, Daniel’s voice changed again. “You brat! Get back here and reflect on your actions!”

Daniel sneered. “Even my grandfather is on your side. How dare I not be convinced?”
‘She is just using my grandfather to pressure me. What is there to be proud of?‘ Daniel wondered.
Raven observed his resentful compliance and chuckled. “Since you’re not convinced, then drink another bottle!”
After she finished speaking, she walked straight to the table and picked up a bottle of liquor.
When Daniel saw Raven’s action, his heart couldn’t help but tremble. ‘Is she Satan?‘
