Chapter 309: Chapter 308

"So it wasn’t you who went to threaten Cyrus Brown this afternoon?"

"I wish it were me. Gale Wiles didn’t tell me, and you’re still shameless enough to call me. It’s a good thing I didn’t call you to scold you. My daughter, Ivy River, shouldn’t suffer grievances!"

Ivy River suppressed her confusion and cooed gently, "Dad, I’m fine, really. Look at me, running and jumping~ your daughter hasn’t been wronged, don’t worry, your heart should be at ease."

"You might not have been hit, but with what he said, it’s not too much even if I beat him a hundred times!"

Jonah Wiles, unwilling to criticize his daughter, redirected his anger to Gale Wiles, "And you, you brat, you never say anything when your sister’s in trouble, and you don’t even go to Seaton. What good are you for?"

"Are you only happy when your sister really gets hit?"

Originally, Gale Wiles had stood up, but upon hearing this, he knelt directly on the ground again.

Gale Wiles sighed helplessly, not daring to make any moves.

Kneeling obediently on the ground.

He didn’t talk back, "Yes, Dad, I know I’m wrong. Please don’t be angry. It’s not worth getting mad at me."

"Is big brother home too?"

Ivy River’s light voice came through.

Jonah Wiles immediately reversed the video, "That’s not your brother, it’s infuriating me, and you, if you dare hide things from me again, Ivy River, just you wait, hear me?"

Ivy River looked at Gale Wiles kneeling on the ground and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"How can he still be this old and still kneel when he makes mistakes? Dad, did you ask for it?"

Jonah Wiles snorted, "It’s his own doing; am I that kind of person?"

"No, no, you’re not. Brother, doesn’t your knee hurt from kneeling?"

Ivy River asked considerately.

Gale Wiles looked displeased, "Ivy River, don’t talk so lightly when you aren’t in my shoes. Come back home if you dare, and see how angry Dad gets. I’m kneeling here, all because of you!"

He couldn’t go against Jonah Wiles, but could he not blame Ivy River?

"You’re the one who wanted to hide it, not me. And since Dad loves me so much, if I came home, you’d be kneeling there with two people watching."

Ivy River’s innocent voice sounded, but her tone was quite malicious.

Gale Wiles shouted, "Dad, can you control your daughter?"

Jonah Wiles reasoned, "Ivy is right. If she had stayed here in Riverland, none of this would have happened. Hurry up and invest in a hospital in Seaton, so your sister won’t have to suffer!"

Ivy River quickly interjected, "No, Dad, our family money is still useful. This kind of hospital doesn’t need investment. I’m at Medical University to participate in a traditional medicine contest; if not for the competition, I wouldn’t have taken the job."

"Is that so?" Jonah Wiles looked at Ivy River suspiciously.

Ivy River asserted seriously, "Yes, it’s true, I promise! Definitely don’t invest; if there’s extra money, why not give it to me! I want it!"

"Not giving it to you." Jonah Wiles was obviously still angry, "I’m very angry about this, Ivy River, I’m telling you, there can’t be a next time. What face can I show if word gets out that my daughter in the Wiles Family gets wronged like this?"

"I’m not wronged, Dad. Cyrus Brown has apologized to me, hasn’t he?"

Ivy River pivoted the conversation, "Hey, Emmy, when did you get here? Come, grandpa’s on the phone, take it?"

Jonah Wiles immediately smiled, "Emmy’s here? Come quickly, let grandpa see you."

Ivy River handed the phone to Emmy, signaling her to handle everything.

Emmy knowingly asked with innocent eyes, "Mommy, are you leaving?"

Ivy River: "..."

This kid should not have been born.

Why is she always causing trouble for her mom?

She gritted her teeth, "Mommy’s going out to call your brother in, you talk with grandpa. Isn’t your brother supposed to talk with grandpa too?"

Emmy waved her little hand, "Go ahead, mommy, my brother’s probably in his room playing computer. I’ll talk to grandpa first."

Upon hearing this, Ivy River exploded.

She rushed upstairs immediately.

Emmy smiled contentedly, sweetly saying, "Grandpa, you don’t know, I’ve missed you so much, haven’t seen you in so long. I miss you so much, uncle, let me see."

Jonah Wiles was immediately swayed by Emmy’s sweetness.

In no time.

Fatty was also sent down by Ivy River to chat along.

...

Noah Wilson looked at Ivy River with resignation, "I told you it wasn’t me. If I were in the country, this Cyrus Brown or whoever he is, would have his leg broken."

Leon Peterson looked disdainful, "Why do you have such an attitude? If it’s not you, then it’s not. Do you have to be so violent?"

Noah Wilson’s eyes were filled with coldness as he said, "I don’t have to be violent, but you were in Seaton, right next to the boss. Why didn’t you protect her?"

Leon Peterson felt guilty for a moment.

"Wasn’t it because there was no actual harm to the boss? It’s just half a day. The boss solved it himself, right... didn’t wait for me to take action?"

Noah Wilson listened to his increasingly quiet voice, sneering, "Half a day? Leon Peterson, I’m on a flight tomorrow. When I get there, prepare to meet your doom, quietly take off your pants and get ready for a beating."

"Why!"

Leon Peterson was utterly shocked, "Why are you coming back tomorrow? Isn’t the boss going abroad for a business trip in a few days? Aren’t you waiting for her?"

"Because a scoundrel like you can’t protect her. The competition lasts three days; I watched the whole thing earlier, on the first day that guy insulted Sister Ivy, and where were you?"

Noah Wilson started bringing up past issues, "You should have resolved it that same day, not letting it escalate further. The second time, deliberately getting people to cause trouble, and then on the third day, the finals, insulting her again."

Leon Peterson knew he couldn’t out-talk Noah Wilson, "Okay, okay, I know I was wrong, it’s all my fault, all right?"

"Why do you look so impatient? Sometimes verbal insults feel worse than being hit. It’s like eating a pile of dog shit and not being able to vent."

Ivy River frowned and couldn’t help but interrupt, "Noah Wilson, enough, saying more would just be too disgusting!"

"Fine, I’ll shut up. Anyway, I didn’t do it. You believe it or not, it’s up to you, I won’t force you."

Noah Wilson was clueless about the threatening incident Ivy River mentioned.

Leon Peterson quickly said, "It wasn’t me either. Could it have been Uncle Wiles? He cares so much about you."

"Not my dad, he in Seaton had his news blocked tightly, just found out Gale Wiles went home to kneel and apologize. I started the video and the background was at home, Seaton to Riverland is quite a distance. If he went to warn someone, he should still be on the way."

Noah Wilson furrowed his brow, "Could it be that damned ex-husband of yours?"

"Edwin Blake doesn’t act that way. If it was him, he wouldn’t stay in the car. Besides, the voice sounded quite elderly and powerful, full of vigor and energy."

Ivy River spoke, her voice suddenly rising, "Full of vigor?!"

Noah Wilson, bored, said, "What’s up, did someone come to mind? I just think it’s an uncle who had enough, the masses have sharp eyes for injustice, someone stepping in with justice."

Ivy River, anxious to verify, "No, I’m out."
