Semua Bab Who's the One Regretting Now?: Bab 401 - Bab 410

"I don't know all the details about the evidence Mr. Fowler has prepared for the appeal," Nathan said quietly. "But I wanted you to know it's happening. This is all I can do. Mr. Fowler Senior might be able to hold Mr. Fowler back for a while, but not indefinitely. I, too, hope you can get out of this mess as soon as possible." He sighed."Thank you," Macie said sincerely while looking at him. "You've given me a heads-up twice now and given me enough time to gather evidence."Don't mention it," he responded. "It's the least I could do." Even though he worked for Edward and was told to keep this a secret, he figured that the latter had done so many wrongs already. Hence, this was his way of doing something good.Macie looked at Nathan, gratitude welling up in her heart, thinking that he was nothing like Edward. Instead of being complicit, he chose to help her and even sympathized with her situation. Just as she was about to say something, a police officer stepped out of the interro

Nolan was rendered speechless. He tried to think of another excuse to bail Edward out, but before he could come up with anything, Yosef ordered, "Call May.""Right away, sir," Nolan answered. He pulled out his phone and was about to make the call when Yosef changed his mind and said, "Forget it. Don't call her. I don't have the nerve to do that…"He wasn't going to put in a good word for Edward or ask for a letter of understanding; he just wanted to help Edward apologize. But he couldn't bring himself to reach out to her now. After all, he was the one who had wronged her, forcing her to marry his grandson and letting her get hurt time and time again.Macie went straight to the cops this time and didn't even tell him. He understood that she didn't want him involved. Edward had crossed a line. Yosef could keep Edward on a tight leash, but he couldn't control his actions. The latter had even used the internet to harass and stalk her. "Clear the table. I've lost my appetite." Yosef

Adrian placed great importance on his meeting with Yosef that night. He went out of his way to learn about Yosef's preferences and carefully prepared a gift. Last weekend, when Adrian had just returned, he asked to see Yosef, but Nolan had turned him away, claiming that Yosef had a cold. But now, barely two days later, the same Yosef, who'd never liked him, had not only changed his mind but personally invited him to the Fowler residence."Edward, my dear brother, it seems like you are seriously ill, huh?" Adrian mused. He was in a good mood. There were only three hours left before dinner.…Meanwhile, Yosef sat in the living room at the Fowler residence, leaning on his walking stick. His expression was tense, lips drawn in a tight line. He was extremely unhappy, or, rather, regretful.Last night, in a fit of rage over Edward's stupidity, he'd demanded to see Adrian. And now, the young man was on his way. Last weekend, when Adrian tried to visit, he refused to see him. At that

"My father only made that decision with my best interests in mind, Grandpa. Please don't blame him. If it goes against company policy, I can always return to the quality control department," Adrian said sincerely. He continued, "Honestly, it doesn't matter where I work, as long as I'm learning and contributing. I'm grateful for the opportunity you've given me to train at the headquarters."Yosef fell silent for a moment after hearing that. Eventually, he said, "You can remain in the marketing department for now.""Thank you, Grandpa. I will work twice as hard so I don't disappoint you!" Adrian beamed.Silence settled over the dining table as the four of them ate. Lana behaved like a good daughter-in-law and placed food on Yosef's plate with serving cutlery."Have you met your brother yet?" Yosef abruptly asked Adrian."I have. I met him yesterday, just after I started at the company," Adrian answered."It's your first time meeting after all these years. He has always kept his d

Yosef did enjoy collecting antiques, and in the last two years, he'd grown especially fond of emeralds, though he wasn't exactly obsessed with them. Moreover, Nolan was right. Adrian clearly knew exactly what he liked.However, he had spent most of his life abroad, so it was obvious that Lana or Bennett had guided him. "What do you think of him?" Yosef inquired.Nolan knew exactly who Yosef was referring to. "He's respectful, polite, considerate of his elders, well-mannered, and articulate. If I were to sum it up, I'd say he's impeccable—flawless, really."Yosef nodded. That was exactly what he thought as well."Mr. Levy told me about his first impression of Mr. Adrian, and from what I saw today, it was spot on," Nolan added."But who knows if it's just a facade?" Yosef muttered. "It would be nice if he were truly as he seems. But what I fear most is that he's just like his mother. If that's the case…""Then, he might even surpass her," Nolan finished his sentence. Lana was a m
