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.

“Are you okay? Someone, help! Help!” Chloe shouted.

Rowan, angry and scared, thought, ‘Is this woman crazy?‘

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 replace Chloe standing in shock. Valerie’s heart tightened as she asked, “What’s going on? What happened? I just heard someone screaming in agony. What’s happening?”

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, “I accidentally set someone on fire. He didn’t even listen to my explanation before running off, not giving anyone a chance to apologize.”

Chloe’s words made Danny chuckle, though he found it odd.

Danny, lost in thought, noticed a bottle on the grass nearby and understood.

Danny said, “Let’s go back first. We need to have the estate security patrol continuously and ensure no one with ill intentions gets in!”

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 Rowan’s face scorched, hair singed, and clothes in tatters.

Owen asked, “What happened to you? Were you robbed or something? Did it explode?”

Rowan’s mouth twitched. “Nothing, just a failed hair perm. I won’t be going to that place anymore!”

“Boss, I’ll go change clothes now!”

Owen nodded, watching Rowan leave, muttering, “A failed hair perm? Young people these days sure have their ways.”

Rowan, shaken, changed clothes, and looked in the mirror. His face was red, his chest blistered, and his hair a mess.

Rowan thought, ‘Damn, 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. Let’s see how Danny would

compete.

Rowan thought, ‘Using 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.’

He had to burn Danny’s winery, but he needed help..

Rowan immediately found a few thugs. With Owen’s 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 couldn’t help but sneer and think, ‘It is Danny calling. That old guy must be scared!

When he answered, Rowan began mocking, “Oh, Mr. Morse, are you scared and surrendering?

“At 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!”

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, “The person who was burned at the estate last time was you, right? Rowan, know when to stop. I’m no longer angry about your betrayal. Instead, I should thank you for the new inspiration you’ve given me.

“But let me remind you, the competition must be fair. If you dare to cause trouble again, don’t blame me for being ruthless! The estate has surveillance. If you come again, I’ll make sure you’re caught!

“By then, with the charges of harming the master, stealing formulas, and arson, think about what you will end up with. Even if we don’t pursue it, the Anderson family will. You better be careful.”

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 didn’t think Danny was bluffing. Since Danny knew he was behind the arson, there would be no mercy.

With new inspiration, Rowan couldn’t 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 wasn’t sure which one would be the best.

Owen just told him to quickly produce the wine but didn’t specify which one to focus on. Rowen thought, ‘What 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.
