Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 393 Ask Her Not to Come Again

The Luminexes took Amelia and left first. As a doctor, Dahlia accompanied them the whole time.

Worried that the old man's blood pressure would spike, Silas cajoled him back home and notified the staff at Tai Chi Hospital to come check on him. Gradually, everyone drifted away, and it seemed as if calm was being restored.

Nelson was the last to leave, with Rylan escorting him downstairs.

Before getting into the car, Nelson said with a gentle smile, "I had planned to talk to Micah, but he probably doesn't want to see me right now. Please convey my apologies to him. This incident... Our Luminex family also has its faults." "If you put it that way, we feel even more ashamed," Rylan said, feeling genuinely apologetic.

"No, the one who should be ashamed is me." Nelson sighed. "If I had known Micah's heart belonged to someone else, I never would have pushed for his marriage to Amelia." "Uh..." Rylan was at a loss for words, unsure of what to say.

Nelson proved his acumen as a businessman; though he hadn't known anything in advance, he could tell that Micah had stepped up to take the blame to protect Sadie.

In the end, it didn't matter who was behind the poisoning; what mattered was where Micah's heart lay, and whoever it pointed to was the winner.

"That girl's name is Sadie?" Nelson asked suddenly.

"Yes." Rylan nodded.

"Sadie Roth?" Nelson asked again.

"Yes," Rylan replied, a bit puzzled why Nelson was asking so meticulously. Was he trying to investigate Sadie?

"That's a rare last name," Nelson mused, "Twenty years ago, I had a good friend with the same last name!"

"Oh?" Rylan felt relieved, realizing it was just an old acquaintance he was asking about.

"Alright, I won't keep you any longer. I'm off."

Nelson patted Rylan on the shoulder, turned, and got into his car.

Rylan watched him drive away, then went upstairs to replace Micah.

Micah's office was in disarray; Micah had thrown everything that could be thrown, and Andrew had narrowly missed getting his head smashed, thanks to some quick reflexes. Rylan was about to knock when Andrew whispered, "You trying to get yourself killed by knocking now?"

"What else can we do? We gotta report in, even if it means facing death." Rylan furrowed his brows, then remembered something. "Oh, what about Miss Roth?"

"Sent someone to take her home," Andrew muttered. "I think we can't keep her in the company any longer. Miss Amelia causes trouble every other day. It's pretty scary." "I feel the same." Rylan took a deep breath and knocked on the study door.

No response came from inside. Rylan hesitated, contemplating withdrawing, when the door swung open.

Rylan and Andrew exchanged a glance and carefully stepped in.

Micah's black leather chair faced away from them. His handsome profile reflected against the floor-to-ceiling window, seeming rather lonely.

"Mr. Clemens, everyone's gone." Rylan spoke softly, "Your grandfather is furious. Silas coaxed him home, worried about his blood pressure, and even called a doctor over."

Micah didn't respond. His gaze was lowered, and his fingers fidgeted with a Rubik's cube.

"Dahlia escorted Miss Amelia home and treated her," Rylan continued the update. "I just walked Mr. Luminex downstairs, and he asked me to convey his apologies to you and said... had he known your heart was taken, he would never have pushed for this marriage."

Micah remained silent...

"Lastly, Nelson confirmed Miss Roth's name with me." Rylan watched Micah closely, speaking cautiously, "He mentioned he had a friend with the last name Roth 20 years ago."

Pausing briefly, Rylan added, "Right, Andrew arranged for people to escort Miss Roth home!"

Micah finally spoke, "Tell her not to come to the company anymore."

"Yes." Rylan knew that he and Andrew were on the same page as Micah so that she could avoid running into Amelia and Micah's grandfather at the VIC Group.

That would be the only way to keep her safe!
