Chapter 1304

An indeterminate time passed, and Cory finally regained his senses. “Mr. Farwell, I was wrong! I won't ever dare to

do this again. Aubree forced me!” He begged for mercy in a panic and spoke without considering his word choices.

“I don't want the money. Please let me go. I'll scram!”

He got up from the chair and wanted to escape the office as soon as possible because that place felt like hell to him

due to the gloomy aura emitted by Lucian.

Cory didn't want to stay there for a second longer.

“Stop right there,” Lucian uttered just as Cory reached the office door.

At the same time, Cayden moved and stood at the doorway, blocking Cory's path. Cayden gestured at the latter for

him to retrace his steps.

Remorse washed over Cory as he was trapped inside the office by Lucian and Cayden.

If he could turn back time, he wouldn't have met with Lucian no matter what.

Realizing there was no longer hope for him to run away, Cory turned around and gazed at Lucian, having only the

courage to do so while keeping a safe distance from him. “What else can I do for you, Mr. Farwell?”

Lucian got to his feet from behind the desk and glanced at Cory with a dark look. “I can give you the money.”

Cory was shocked. He couldn't believe his ears. Am I really able to acquire money from Lucian? I'm not dreaming,

right?

Immediately afterward, Lucian's voice rang again. “But not now.”

Reality slapped Cory across his face.

Having worked in that industry for so long, he was already a worldly-wise person.

He fathomed Lucian had a task for him after Lucian finished his sentence.

Moreover, that task wouldn't be simple.

However, Cory was left with no alternative.

Instead of having Lucian force him to take on the job, he figured he might as well seize that opportunity to get on

Lucian's good side by doing him that favor.

Cory flashed a subservient smile. “Mr. Farwell, how can I be of help? I'll definitely put forth my best effort!”

Lucian strode past him and looked at Cayden, who was standing at the doorway. “Bring Mr. Zaythrone to the

reception room to rest.”

Cayden nodded politely.

Cory's heart jumped to his throat when he was on his way to the reception room. The tension even caused him to

feel a little breathless.

Meanwhile, Aubree had finally returned to the Pearson residence.

Her legs were still a little weak when she got out of the car. She nearly fell to the ground.

“Aubree!”

Inside the mansion, Gina was sitting in the living room in uneasiness. Her facial expression brightened when she

saw Aubree returning. “Where did you go? You haven't eaten anything in the past few days and were reluctant to

leave your bedroom. When you stepped out of your room, you disappeared without updating US on your

whereabouts. Do you know how worried I was about you?”

Samuel, standing next to Gina, also looked concerned.

“Just forget about the engagement since it has been called off. Lucian will always remember the kindness your

grandfather had shown him, so the Pearson family's status remains,” Gina comforted her daughter.

Although they were also dissatisfied with the cancellation of the engagement, Gina and Samuel thought their

daughter's health was ultimately more important.

“Mom, Dad, things may be different for the Pearson family soon,” Aubree stammered.

The rest of Gina's words stuck in her throat. She turned her head around and exchanged glances with Samuel. Only

then did she confirm her ears weren't playing tricks on her.

Colors drained from her face again as apprehension filled her eyes. “What happened? Why are you saying that all

of a sudden?”

Gina sized up Aubree's appearance as she spoke. A sense of foreboding crept into Gina's heart. “Be honest with US.

What have you done?”

Aubree's lips trembled uncontrollably. “1-1 messed up! Lucian will never let me off the hook! Mom, Dad, please help

me. Only you two can save me now!”
