Chapter 286

Shane was excited as he pushed the Rolex in front of Bill again.

Bill did not push it back, of course.

Seeing that Bill had accepted the watch, Jay got up, hung his head low, and said nothing.

Logically, Shane should have taken Jay and left after this.

When smart people deal with each other, they did not have to make things clear. Express your attitude, and the other person would know what to do.

At this point, since Bill had forgiven Jay and accepted the gift, he would stop picking on the Bennett family.

Shane did not need to repeat it himself.

However, he could not help asking again since he could not afford to wait.

“Mr. Wallace… I will teach my son how to behave from now on.

“So please spare the Bennett family…”

Shane bowed at Bill and spoke in an ingratiating tone.

“Spare the Bennett family?”

Bill was stunned when Shane said this.

“I didn’t do anything to the Bennett family. Why did you ask me to spare you?”

When Bill said this, it was Shane’s turn to be stunned.

‘What?‘

‘Is Bill going back on his word after taking the gift?‘

“Mr. Wallace, well… our family have been having such a hard time these two days.

“Our business is being investigated, clients are asking us for goods, and suppliers are asking for payment. We really can’t take it anymore…”

Shane’s face was full of desperate appeal.

He was a multimillionaire and would not have been so humble if he had not been desperate.

Bill’s eyes narrowed slightly when Shane said this.

He felt a sudden chill when he recalled what Sean had said that day.

‘Sean must have something to do with this.

‘He almost destroyed the Bennett family’s business empire that had been around for so many years with only one word.

“Who is he?‘

Bill felt even more respectful of Sean when he heard that.

“Mr. Bennett, you know me. I’ll admit it if I did it.

“If I didn’t, then I didn’t do it.”

Bill looked up at Shane and replied calmly.

Shane looked at Bill for a few seconds before letting out another long sigh and scowled.

‘If Bill didn’t do it, who did?

‘Did Jay offend some other big shot?

‘But Jay told me confidently that Bill’s the only person he had offended!‘

“Mr. Wallace, I heard from my son that you had a cripple alone with you the other day.

“Perhaps the cripple had said some bad thing about my son.

“But Mr. Wallace, you mustn’t trust him!”

Shane sighed gently, still thinking Bill had something to do with it.

Jay said he had issues with Sean too, but Shane ignored it.

How could a nobody with no background be able to drive the Bennett family into a corner?

However, Shane noticed a sneer on Bill’s face when he said this.

“I’m afraid you’ve been clever all your life but stupid this once, Mr. Bennett.”

Bill leaned forward and looked at Shane as he sneered.

“What… what do you mean?”

Shane froze slightly before asking quickly.

“Do you know that even Boss Flint is respectful of…

“The cripple you speak of?”

Shane froze like he was struck by lightning when Bill said that.
