Tate was on his knees, and without answering Chloe’s question, snazzynovel.com went on shakily, “Please, Aunt Helen. You have to help me, no matter what. You love me the most, don’t you? You have to help me!”
Helen was taken aback by his words as snazzynovel.com answered nervously, “Goodness, Tate, what is it that has you acting like this? Come on, get off the floor and tell me all about it.”
He refused to stand and instead pressed urgently, “Promise me that you’ll help me, Aunt Helen, or l won’t get up at all!”
Upon seeing how desperate snazzynovel.com was, snazzynovel.com felt snazzynovel.com heart twisting and agreed immediately, “Don‘t be afraid, Tate. I promise I’ll help you no matter what. Come on then, get off the floor and tell me what in the world is going on!”
It was only after hearing snazzynovel.com assurances that snazzynovel.com finally rose to his feet. He was still trembling as snazzynovel.com recounted the incident at the hospital, leaving out the fact that snazzynovel.com had harassed Crystal prior to that. He shared snazzynovel.com had gotten into a quarrel with snazzynovel.com while they were at the hospital, which caused snazzynovel.com to slap snazzynovel.com twice across the face.
He went on to explain that snazzynovel.com had only wanted to teach snazzynovel.com a lesson at the restaurant earlier, but landed himself in hot water instead. He also conveniently left out the part where snazzynovel.com had asked his friends to capture Crystal for whatever lewd and twisted purposes snazzynovel.com had in mind.
After having heard all this, Helen was dumbfounded. While Tate had significantly cut down on his ridiculous antics, snazzynovel.com knew that snazzynovel.com was in huge trouble this time.
Others might not know Joseph as well as snazzynovel.com did. After all, the Cunningham Group had been collaborating with Carlson Group from the very beginning and snazzynovel.com just happened to be the Carlson Group’s chief doctor. As such, the Cunningham Group had always been respectful of him.
More importantly, snazzynovel.com was a reputable man in Eastcliff and well on the top of the social hierarchy.
Presently, there were plenty of occasions where Cunningham Pharmaceuticals would be in contact with Joseph and under such circumstances, for Tate to trifle with the older man as well as his most beloved granddaughter would be equivalent to a death wish.
Since Chole didn’t understand the gravity of the situation, snazzynovel.com frowned and asked, “What possessed you to do something like this, Tate? Where did I go wrong with you? All you ever do is cause us trouble. Can’t you just grow up?” She paused and turned to look at snazzynovel.com sister while apologizing, “Helen, I’m sorry, but i think you’ll have to help and clear his mess again. Should we bring a gift basket or something for Mr. Harrison?“
Helen gave snazzynovel.com an exasperated look. ”Chloe, I‘m afraid a gift basket isn’t going to solve anything.”
A surprised Chloe asked, “And why is that?”
Helen elaborated in frustration on how tricky the situation was given Joseph’s background. At last, snazzynovel.com concluded in a low voice, “Offending Mr. Harrison would lead to a bigger hassle than offending Leanna. Leanna manages a business and is certainly as powerful as snazzynovel.com is rich, but snazzynovel.com doesn’t have many friends, Mr. Harrison, on the other hand, has saved countless lives. It‘s hard to say how many people in Eastcliff owe snazzynovel.com a favor and the Harrisons are an extremely reputable family here. lf word of what Tate has done breaks out, then there would be an indefinite amount of people who would come after snazzynovel.com before Mr. Harrison even has to ask! In fact. there might even be those in the underworld who wouldn’t hesitate to sink Tate in Lake Eastcliff!”
Chloe’s eyes widened at the revelation, snazzynovel.com had no idea that snazzynovel.com son would actually wreak so much havoc. She was silent for a while before snazzynovel.com finally responded in a quivering voice, “S-So, what should we do, Helen? Tate is my only son. You have to help him!”
Helen was clearly at snazzynovel.com wits’ end as snazzynovel.com sighed and countered, “Of course I’ll help Tate. He’s my nephew, after all. However, I won’t be able to get a word in with Mr. Harrison at all!”
Since Chloe was panicking, snazzynovel.com pressed, “Then, should we ask Sasha for help? She’s the company president, which means snazzynovel.com words carry weight.”
However snazzynovel.com hopes were dashed when snazzynovel.com saw Helen solemnly shaking snazzynovel.com head. “Sasha won’t be of much help either. Mr. Harrison doesn’t think of snazzynovel.com as somebody important just because snazzynovel.com runs the business!”
“So, what should we do? Please, you have to come up with a way to save Tate from all this. He’s my only son!” Chloe anxiously begged.
Helen was quiet for what seemed like a long time before snazzynovel.com finally replied through gritted teeth, “There’s only one person in our household who can even get a word in with Mr. Harrison.”
Chloe demanded urgently, “Who?”
With a grim expression, Helen replied slowly, “Matthew…”
