Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) -
Chapter 413
Chapter 413 Remarry
"What did you say?" Mr. Hannon Senior's voice tuned cold.
Everyone had obeyed his every whim and fancy for this many years, and he wouldn't tolerate disobedience, Backochen 1 tot joined the Harmon family, Funew that he was the ruler of the family. He commanded absolute authority, and he was very different from my dad. Three or four years must've come and gone since then, but Mr. Harmon Senior was still the
person. He wouldn't allow anyone to go again his will
"I said, I can't go over," I responded with the same indifferent tone. In the past, I had always remembered the good thin he did for me. Now, however, the truth had been unearthed. I was no longer in the mood to pretend that I would comply with his wishes. More to the point, I couldn't shake the feeling that he had a hand in this incident as well. Leonard might not have wanted to make me the tall guy, but things were different when it came to Mr. Hammon Senior.
Naturally, a former granddaughter-in-law could never hold more importance than a company, Leonard merely didn't object to his grandfather's actions.
Mr. Harmon Senior got even more furious when he heard my response. "Eva, you should know that..."
"I know that I owe Leonard, but he owes me too. That means I no longer owe the Harmon family anything."
I leaned on the bed and added, "Moreover, I could pass out at any given moment. You must've looked into my health, didn't you? Do you want me to die at the Harmon residence and haunt you there?"
I rubbed my forehead, feeling a headache. My tone became cold and unyielding too.
Mr. Harmon Senior seemed to be pissed oft. I could just heat his breathing. However, he softened his voice eventually.
"You should know that it isn't appropriate for me to meet with you under these circumstances, Eva."
"Why can't we just do this over the phone? Is it because you're worried I'll record the conversation?"
The truth was, I had been recording the phone conversation the moment I heard his voice. I wasn't sure if it could be a piece of evidence in the future, but it didn't hurt to cover my back, at least.
Mr. Harmon Senior paused briefly when he heard my response. Then, he sighed gently.
"Leonard still has feelings for you, Eva. It's not like him having a child micans you two can't be together."
"What do you mean?" I opened my eyes. It felt like he was going to say something that would shatter the way I saw the world.
"I'm saying that you two should remarry each other." Mr. Harmon Senior's voice softened further, but it still sounded as if he wouldn't tolerate me if I rejected him.
"I'm well aware of the fact that you also have some feelings for him. With that in mind, I can't just forcibly separate you two lovers. It's better than you "That's not happening." I directly rejected Mr. Harmon Senior.
What sort of sick joke was this? I had to jump through hoops to divorce Leonard. Why would I willingly return to his arms again?
I strongly thought that Mr. Harmon Senior was asking us to remarry because he had other intentions.
"What?" Mr. Harmon Senior asked me yet again. I began to wonder if there was something wrong with his heating.
"We're divorced, and we're not getting remarried. More to the point, I don't think you really want us to remarry each other."
We were all intelligent people. So, I didn't think there was a need to hide anything.
Mr. Harmon Senior chuckled lightly. "Naturally."
He actually didn't hide his real intentions. Now, all he talked about was his personal interests.
"You've been in charge of several projects in Harmon Group. Your departure from the company has caused a major adverse effect on the company. It the projects are called off, we would have to pay the compensation. You know better than I do about the kind of losses Harmon Group would face.
"So, you're going to remarry Leonard and make a public announcement. You'll say that you're still the design director and that there's no need to call off any projects. Don't worry, I won't ask you to bear the responsibilities."
Everything Mr. Harmon Senior said was in regard to Harmon Group's and the Harmon family's interests. He said nothing about Leonard. Naturally, I wasn't in his consideration either.
Both of us were nothing but pawns in his eyes.
"The netizens aren't gullible fools, and neither are the business partners, Mr. Harton Senior."
"I'll make them believe what I tell them. All you have to do is admit that it has all been a huge misunderstanding, and say that you and Leonard are still a lovely couple."
Mr. Harmon Senior's tone was indifferent. He simply didn't care about me or anyone else. That was how a capitalist was, after all.
However, I rejected him. I didn't want anything to do with the Harmon family anymore.
Mr. Harmon Senior finally flew into a tage after 1 rejected him this many times. "Who do you think you are, Eva? Leonard has helped you this much. Are you going to repay his kindness by being ungrateful?"
