Chapter 350
Wife
âYouâre not as insignificant as you claim to be. Since you know President Harper, why donât you introduce us? Skycrest might need to take a loan or two in the future,â said Geoffrey.
Rosalie finally understood the reason behind his call today. It was none other than for corporate interest.
âTo be honest, Mr. Carter, Iâm sure an enterprise as outstanding as Skycrest would have many banks fighting to give it a loan. Thereâs no need for you to look for a bank, not to mention asking someone insignificant like me for help on that,â Rosalie said firmly.
For someone like Geoffrey Carter to look her up for an introduction with a bank president, something fishy must be going on. There was clearly an unknown reason behind thisâone that Geoffrey would certainly refuse to say.
âThatâs true,â Geoffrey said, âbut the choice always goes both ways. Thereâs no loss in getting to know the president of a bank. Could you help me out, in light of the fact that I didnât punish my son on your account today? Otherwise, I would have beaten him up without a doubt.â
Rosalie found it hilarious. âThatâs your son weâre talking about. Why would you release him from punishment for someone elseâs sake?â
âBut thatâs precisely what happened. Had you not turned up today, heâd probably be in the hospital right now. The punishment is just temporarily lifted for now.â
Rosalieâs heart leaped, as if sensing something. âIâm not sure if I heard you right, but⦠Are you threatening me, Mr. Carter?â
âIâm just stating the facts,â Geoffrey said, his voice turning cold. âIf you donât care for Sebastian, my threats mean nothing to you. My punishment for him would have nothing to do with you as well, since youâre just friends.â
âMr. Carter, thatâs beneath you,â Rosalie said with furrowed brows. âSebastian is your biological son. If you donât care for him, who else would?â
âWould a fully grown man like him still need a father to care for him? All the more he needs to be punished!â Geoffrey said coldly. âSince youâre not willing to help me on something so minor, I wonât bother you any further. Goodbye.â
Geoffrey was about to hang up when Rosalie called out, âWait!â
âMs. Young, is there anything else?â Geoffrey said slowly.
âMay I ask if Sebastian really is your biological son?â
Without any hesitation, he said, âYes.â
âSince he is, I hope that you wonâtâ¦â
âMs. Young,â Geoffrey cut her off, âthatâs between me and my family, isnât it?â
âYouâ¦â
Rosalie suddenly found Geoffrey outrageous.
He claimed it to be a family affair, but didnât hesitate to threaten her with Sebastian. Which father under the sun would threaten an outsider with his own son? Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
The thing was, that threat worked. A loyal and affectionate person was always easily influenced and put in a spot.
Rosalie didnât want to waste her breath on him any further.
Taking a deep breath, she said, âMr.
Carter, if I introduced you to President Harper, will you really stop picking on Sebastian and let this incident go? Will you not mention it ever again, and not do anything to him using this as a reason?â Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
She had to nip this in the bud.
âIf this incident allows me to befriend President Harper, Iâd consider it a blessing in disguise. Naturally Iâll no longer count it
against Sebastian. I might even
reward him for it. If anything similar happens again, I might even do away with his punishment,â Geoffrey said leisurely. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
