Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 222 The Grim Reaper Himself

"Mr. Clemens, you misunderstand" Kathleen began, but she was abruptly dragged away by one of Micah's men. Before she could cry for help, her mouth was covered.

The staff and other young couples applying for marriage licenses were petrified.

"Don't worry, we never break the law." Andrew explained with a reassuring smile. "We don't want to cause any disturbance. We'll deal with this outside." With a gesture from him, the bodyguards quickly escorted Kathleen, the man, and the two White family bodyguards out.

"Hello there!" Micah knocked on the desk to snap the dazed clerk out of her stupor.

"Y-yes, hello!" The clerk finally gathered her wits; her voice trembling as she asked, "Can I assist you with anything?"

"All the records she just registered, including that photo, destroy both the digital and hard copies, please, and thank you," Micah requested politely.

His men already stood by, their stern gazes ensuring the clerk's compliance.

"Right away, sir," the clerk immediately set to work.

With everything in order, Micah then turned his attention to Sadie.

He yanked her roughly from the chair, depositing her onto the desk. His towering frame loomed over her like a menacing beast. He had one hand braced beside her while the other pinched her chin, forcing her to look into his eyes. His eyes, deep as the ocean, simmered with fiery rage, ready to incinerate everything in its path.

Terrified by his gaze, Sadie quickly lowered her head, afraid to look at him. Her hands twisted the hem of her blouse in a frantic motion; her eyes echoed her disarray, and her thoughts were a tangled mess. 'What should I do?'

'How do I explain?'

'Will he replace out about the baby?'

'Could he strangle me and then take the baby away?'

All these thoughts came rushing to her head.

"Speak up!" Micah commanded with a frigid bite in his voice.

Sadie shivered and, mustering courage, tentatively met his gaze, forcing a strained, awkward smile. "Mr. Clemens, you... you're back already?"

"You wish I hadn't come back?" Micah's eyes narrowed dangerously, like a predator ready to pounce.

"No, I just... I mean..." Words failed Sadie as she trembled uncontrollably.

Annoyed at her trembling form, Micah grabbed her ponytail and dragged her out the door. She stumbled along the way, nearly collapsing several times. Bystanders quickly cleared a path, none wanting to collide with her, especially with such an intimidating man trailing right behind. His aura made everyone around him shrink back in fear.

"Let go, Micah, it hurts... it hurts..." Sadie attempted to pull her hair from his grip but to no avail.

It wasn't until she was roughly shoved into the car that she found relief from the pain in her scalp and angrily snapped, "What do you think you're doing?"

"Nice," Micah sneered mockingly." You're all fire and fury with me but meek as a mouse in front of others?!"

Sadie pursed her lips and hung her head in shame.

Yes, there were few in the world who dared to challenge Micah, except her. Yet, it was tough survival for her, who remained defiant in his presence, when others easily crushed her... And that was the embarrassing truth.

"Tell me..." Micah pressed, gripping Sadie's cheek and demanding sharply, "What kind of leverage do they have on you?"

Panic seized Sadie; she couldn't let Micah replace out about the children. But could she keep it hidden any longer?

She hadn't checked the news in over ten minutes; she was clueless about what could potentially be on there now. Even if the news about the children hadn't leaked yet, it lingered on the brink of exposure. Micah's men had already taken Kathleen and her entourage, so interrogation would surely follow. To save themselves, wouldn't they spill the secret?
