Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Heaven’s sins can be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins cannot survive

"Ha! Mrs. Johnson, Chairman Johnson, yes, the Johnson Family is wealthy and powerful, but don’t forget, there are laws in this world! Not everything is decided by the Johnson Family!"

"What happened tonight was indeed my fault, I admit it! I shouldn’t have stabbed Alexander Johnson. If you want to call the police, hire a lawyer, or even have me sent to prison, I will accept it. But similarly, he kidnapped my mother—this is his wrongdoing as well!"

"I will also reserve the right to pursue legal action! But if you insist on leveraging the Johnson Family’s power to circumvent the law, then I urge you to carefully consider the consequences! Some things can be hidden for a while, but not forever. Paper cannot wrap fire!"

"I refuse to believe that the Johnson Family can forever wield absolute power as it does now. No, even if you are the wealthiest family in Kyohai, you cannot control everything! Such a large family surely has enemies and rivals—if something slips out accidentally, perhaps triggering a stock crash or something similar, it’s not impossible!"

"So, good deeds bring rewards, and evil deeds bring retribution—what goes around comes around. Mrs. Johnson, Chairman Johnson, I ask you not to push people too far! Heaven may forgive, but self-inflicted sins cannot be lived through!"

Chloe Simpson straightened her back and stood upright in front of Liam Johnson and Gabriella Dyer, every word sharp and resounding.

"You! You little wench, who do you think you are? Daring to point fingers and dictate to me like this! Huh? Let me tell you, one phone call from me, and you won’t be able to stay in Kyohai!"

Gabriella Dyer was truly enraged this time.

Standing off to the side, Liam Johnson’s face also turned dark completely.

"Gabriella, that’s enough. Miss Simpson, we didn’t know so many things had occurred earlier. Rest assured, we will investigate the matter of your mother’s kidnapping thoroughly. If it’s truly Alexander’s doing—"

"Then we will let tonight’s event slide. As you mentioned earlier, your altercation with Alexander stemmed from your mother’s kidnapping, and in the heat of the moment, you unintentionally stabbed Alexander."

"But if your mother’s kidnapping has nothing to do with Alexander, or if you were indeed instigated or incited by someone else, then don’t blame us for not being polite."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, scrutinizing Chloe Simpson for a moment before speaking.

Liam Johnson’s voice was not loud, but each and every word carried an immense pressure.

Especially his piercing gaze, like a wooden pallet bristling with steel knives, directly targeting Chloe.

"Very well, Chairman Johnson, I agree. Thank you for being so reasonable."

Since Liam Johnson had already spoken to such an extent, Chloe Simpson couldn’t say much more.

"Alright, since you’ve agreed, the matter going forward will be straightforward. Starting today, I expect you to return to your own home and no longer live with my son."

"Additionally, refrain from going out in the coming days, just stay in Kyohai. If I uncover anything, I will send someone to notify you immediately. Here’s my phone number, you can call me directly if there’s something."

After speaking, Liam Johnson handed his business card to Chloe Simpson.

"Understood. If there’s nothing else, Chairman Johnson, I’ll take my leave now."

Chloe paused momentarily, nodded, accepted the business card, and turned to leave.

Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed from behind.

"I disagree!"
