Chapter 658
Chloe was terrified. She wanted to help Rowan but hesitated to approach him. Seeing him burned and in such a state, Chloe was anxious.
âAre you okay? Someone, help! Help!â Chloe shouted.
Rowan, angry and scared, thought, âIs this woman crazy?â
He quickly got up and ran away, afraid that Danny and Valerie right see him. Rowan was in a panic.
Chloe was stunned, watching his panicked retreat, and furrowed her brows tightly.
In the dim light, a person ran out engulfed in flames, and the sight was quite comical.
Valerie and Danny, hearing the commotion, rushed out to find Chloe standing in shock. Valerieâs heart tightened as she asked, âWhatâs going on? What happened? I just heard someone screaming in agony. Whatâs happening?â
Valerie quickly checked and noticed a strange smell. It was gasoline.
Her face darkened immediately.
Danny also smelled it and fell silent.
Chloe shrugged and said, âI accidentally set someone on fire. He didnât even listen to my explanation before running off, not giving anyone a chance to apologize.â
Chloeâs words made Danny chuckle, though he found it odd.
Danny, lost in thought, noticed a bottle on the grass nearby and understood.
Danny said, âLetâs go back first. We need to have the estate security patrol continuously and ensure no one with ill intentions gets in!â
Valerie thought the same. If a fire broke out in the winery, with so much wine stored inside, it could easily turn into a major disaster.
She ordered a patrol, scaling off all possible entrances except one.
Rowan, burned and in pain, was now a mess.
When he returned, he bumped into Owen.
Owen was stunned, seeing Rowanâs face scorched, hair singed, and clothes in tatters.
Owen asked, âWhat happened to you? Were you robbed or something? Did it explode?â
Rowanâs mouth twitched. âNothing, just a failed hair perm. I wonât be going to that place anymore!â
âBoss, Iâll go change clothes now!â
Owen nodded, watching Rowan leave, muttering, âA failed hair perm? Young people these days sure have their ways.â
Rowan, shaken, changed clothes, and looked in the mirror. His face was red, his chest blistered, and his hair a mess.
Rowan thought, âDamn, what a terrible day. I encountered a crazy woman, and her scream almost gave me a heart attack!
He needed another plan.

If the first attempt failed, he would try again. He had to destroy all the wine before the selection. Letâs see how Danny would
compete.
Rowan thought, âUsing gasoline is too slow, and dealing with it alone is risky. If I encountered a similar situation again, I might not be able to escape.
Moreover, having been spotted by that crazy woman, Valerie and her team would definitely be on alert next time. I needed to gather more people.â
He had to burn Dannyâs winery, but he needed help..
Rowan immediately found a few thugs. With Owenâs backing and ample funds, he promised them a substantial reward if the job was completed successfully,
Just as he was about to act, he received a phone call.
Looking at the familiar phone number, Rowan couldnât help but sneer and think, âIt is Danny calling. That old guy must be scared!
When he answered, Rowan began mocking, âOh, Mr. Morse, are you scared and surrendering?
âAt your age, what are you doing back in the game? Go wash up and sleep, or rather, go back and be with your comatose daughter!â
Rowan was trying to intimidate Danny, hoping to provoke him. He wanted to hear Danny beg for mercy.
Danny, however, replied with a cold smile, âThe person who was burned at the estate last time was you, right? Rowan, know when to stop. Iâm no longer angry about your betrayal. Instead, I should thank you for the new inspiration youâve given me.
âBut let me remind you, the competition must be fair. If you dare to cause trouble again, donât blame me for being ruthless! The estate has surveillance. If you come again, Iâll make sure youâre caught!
âBy then, with the charges of harming the master, stealing formulas, and arson, think about what you will end up with. Even if we donât pursue it, the Anderson family will. You better be careful.â
After finishing, Danny hung up. Rowan was terrified and broke into a cold sweat.
If Danny had new inspiration, it meant trouble for him.
Rowan didnât think Danny was bluffing. Since Danny knew he was behind the arson, there would be no mercy.
With new inspiration, Rowan couldnât even imagine the consequences.
He quickly tidied up, canceled the operation, and went to the lab.
He had the recipes for brewing, but with so many to choose from, he wasnât sure which one would be the best.
Owen just told him to quickly produce the wine but didnât specify which one to focus on. Rowen thought, âWhat if Danny won in the evaluation? What would I do then? Would Mr. Anderson still hold me accountable? Damn, if I lost, Mr. Anderson would definitely tear me apart.
