Chapter 1249: Chapter 1246
âSheâŠâ
Wesley Wrightâs face showed some embarrassment, then he said, âWeâve tightened security recently, we absolutely cannot give Yamaguchi-gumi and that traitor any opportunity to exploit.â
âIf the Federal Bureau of Investigation only sent an Ellie Will, thatâs hardly terrifying.â
What actually made him afraid?
It was the Federal Bureau of Investigation behind Ellie Will!
And not just an Ellie Will!
âHey!â
A group of company executives immediately nodded!
After Wesley Wright announced the meeting was adjourned, he immediately headed towards the Ice Prison. When he saw Jessica Wright covered in white frostâŠ
He frowned!
Clearly, Jessica Wright had heard his footsteps, yet remained still. To her, being alive or dead no longer mattered.
Being alive, she couldnât stay by her senior brotherâs side anymore, let alone be with him, so what was the point?
If she died, at least she wouldnât have to endure the torment of longing.
The one thing she regretted was having to wither away in this cold prison cell rather than dying at the hand of her beloved.
Such was her regret.
She sat cross-legged on the ground, allowing the frost to invade her body.
Even neglecting to gather her inner âQiâ for warmth!
Her attitude was clear enough!
And the food at the door remained untouched!
After seeing all this, Wesley Wright stood in front of the Ice Prison, looking down from a high position at Jessica Wright sitting on the ice, and said coldly, âWhy be so stubborn?â
âI am your father. Is admitting your fault to me really that difficult for you to say?â
Between them, rather than father and daughter, it was more like they were superior and subordinate.
Thatâs why Jessica Wright felt no sense of belonging to the company. She then slightly parted her lips and posed a soul-searching question, âDo we still have the affections of a father and daughter between us?â
âYou should know that in my heart, Uncle De was an elder, yet you still ignored my pleas and even injured him severely and expelled him from the company right in front of me, leaving him to fend for himself!â
âHave you truly considered my feelings?â
Her tone was colder than the surrounding ice!
In other words, with the eruption of the Lucas Davis incident, the already fragile bond between them had reached its end.
âHave you ever considered my position?â
Wesley Wright, suppressing the anger in his heart, calmly sat down on the ice surface: âAs the head of the family, when even a slave dares to talk back to me, do you think I can let him off?â
Jessica Wright shook her head slightly: âBut youâve forgotten, it was he who taught me my skills, not you!â
âYou also forget, he has risked his life for the company so many times over the years and been injured countless times!â
In this confrontation, she would not admit defeat, nor would she bow her head!
In fact, some things, once seen through, lose their power to intimidate!
Like death, is it really that terrifying?
Why then does she still long for it?
Perhaps because death also signifies a rebirth!
In this life, she had been abandoned by the heavens!
In the next life, she wished for a better one!
âEnough!â
Wesley Wright, emotionally incensed, sharply scolded: âDonât use the nonsense you learned abroad to lecture me!â
âTheyâre just a bunch of stupid children who grew up abroad, whatâs this nonsense about Confucian doctrines?â
âMerely a group of hypocrites who spout benevolence and morality with one breath, and clam up the next!â
âIf I were kind and righteous, who would reciprocate?â
âThis is survival!â
âUnder the Laws of survival of the fittest, I cannot afford to be kind and righteous!â
âLook at your Uncle Wesley Wright, and then at the Federal Bureau of Investigation who boldly tore up our cooperationâare my efforts towards them not the very definition of generosity and righteousness?â
