Chapter 18 The Person They Offended Was Me
Kate and Willow were both shocked when Caspian suddenly took action.
“What are you doing… L-Let go!” Nicholas’ face contorted in pain.
“Are you deaf? Willow already refused you. I don’t mind breaking your legs if you continue
to pester my wife!” Caspian said calmly.
Even Willow had never seen Caspian display such resolve before. He even dared to
confront Nicholas!
“You worthless bastard! How dare you raise a hand against Mr. Nicholas? Are you tired of
living? Hurry up and release him!” Taken aback, Kate yelled furiously.
“No matter what, I’m still Willow’s husband. Why are you siding with him instead?”
Caspian asked irritatedly.
“Mr. Nicholas is the son-in-law that I favor. As for you, you’re not worthy to be with Willow!
Apologize to Mr. Nicholas quickly, or you’ll regret it!” Kate replied.
Caspian’s heart sank. Resolving a bastard like Nicholas using brute force didn’t seem
meaningful. He let go of Nicholas’ hand.
However, both Willow and Kate thought that Caspian had been intimidated by Nicholas’
status.
“If you have any self-awareness left, you should leave Willow immediately. You can’t
provide her with an upper-class life!” Kate insisted.
“We’re only a few days away from the 30th. Why are you in such a hurry? If I can’t give
Willow an exceptionally grand wedding on that day, I’ll leave her then,” Caspian replied.
“Why do you need to do something so unnecessary? In the end, you’re just a broke man
filled with lies!” Kate retorted.
“I’ll fulfill everything that I’ve said on the day of the wedding,” Caspian said indifferently. 1
Kate simply couldn’t be bothered with Caspian. Turning toward Nicholas instead, she
asked, “Mr. Nicholas, did this good-for-nothing hurt you?”
“Mrs. Stewart, I didn’t expect this guy to be so rough. My arm almost broke!” Although
there were countless grievances in Nicholas’ heart, he did not dare say anything further.
After all, he did not feel that he was a match for Caspian in terms of strength.
“He’s all brawn and no brain. Don’t take it to heart.” Kate consoled him.

“Willow is destined to have an unhappy life if she marries a worthless guy like him. Mrs.
Stewart, you’re well aware of my family background.
“As long as Willow agrees to marry me, the Stewart family can easily collaborate with the
Southlake Corporation when the time comes,” Nicholas said.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Nicholas. I’ll continue to persuade Willow. You should keep the diamond
ring for now,” Kate replied.
She picked up the ring from the ground and placed it in Nicholas’ palm.
Paying no attention to Caspian, she continued to persuade Willow patiently.
“Willow, your grandma wouldn’t have taken away your shares in the Stewart Group if it
wasn’t for this good -for-nothing.
“Your future will be bright as long as you marry Mr. Nicholas. Everyone in the Stewart
family will look up to you then!”
Resigned, Caspian left the hall. Walking toward his house, he dialed Miranda’s phone.
Miranda did not dare to ignore Caspian’s call. Picking it up immediately, she asked, “What
can I do for you, Mr. Lynch?”
“From now on, cut off all of our collaborations with the Archer family!” Caspian ordered.
Surprised, Miranda couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Lynch, why the sudden-”
“No particular reason. It’s just that Nicholas Archer has made a mistake. He’s offended the
wrong person! ” he replied indifferently.
Miranda was taken aback. Why were all these wealthy scions so idle?
Caspian had consecutively terminated their cooperation with three major families. There
would be significant losses for the projects Southlake Corporation was involved in.
“Mr. Lynch, we have numerous ongoing projects with the Archer family. The sudden
termination of our cooperation will lead to tremendous losses. This may not be an
appropriate decision,” Miranda explained.
Naturally, she had the company’s profits in mind.
No matter what, she was still the vice president of Southlake Corporation. She had to
consider the company’s well-being.
“You talk too much. Just do as I say. Don’t worry about the losses!” Caspian stated
indisputably.

As the ruler of Diatoran, money had all but lost meaning to him. It was nothing but cold
numbers.
By kicking out the Archer family, Willow would have room to maneuver the company when
she applied for the job later on.
“Understood, Mr. Lynch. I’ll handle it right away,” Miranda said. She did not dare to say
anything more.
“Also, tell the Archer family that the losses they incur are all because Nicholas offended
the wrong person! “Caspian instructed.
“Understood!” she replied.
Just as Nicholas was about to pester Willow again in the living room, he received a phone
call. It was from the head of the Archer family, his grandfather-Lawrence Archer.
“What’s wrong, Grandpa? Did something happen?” Nicholas asked.
“You rascal, what have you done? Which important figure did you offend?” Lawrence
asked furiously.
Nicholas was confused. It was the first time he had seen his grandfather so furious.
Perplexed, he replied, “I haven’t offended anyone. What’s going on?”
“The vice president of Southlake Corporation called me personally. She told me that the
company was halting all collaborations with our family because you offended someone
you shouldn’t have!” Lawrence said sternly.
“Is that so? Grandpa, I didn’t offend anyone. I’m busy proposing to Willow from the
Stewart family right now!” Nicholas explained urgently.
Both Kate and Willow were shocked upon hearing Lawrence’s voice.
Even the Archer family had been kicked out of Southlake Corporation’s projects!
After the Stewart and Hudson families had their cooperation terminated, it was now the
Archer family’s turn.
Not only were the notices given suddenly, but even the reason for the sudden termination
was the same.
Had all these scions offended the same person?

lose over 60 million!” Lawrence was overcome with anger.
“Alright. I’ll go back right away.” Nicholas was taken aback. 60 million was a staggering
figure!

“I’m sorry. I have something to attend to right now. I’ll be leaving first,” Nicholas said as he
hung up the
call.
“Go ahead, Mr. Nicholas. Don’t forget to propose to Willow personally on the 30th. By then,
Willow would’ve definitely kicked that good-for-nothing to the curb,” Kate said as she
followed Nicholas out.
“We’ll talk about it then,” Nicholas replied with a wave of his hand.
With no further reason to stay behind, Kate left Willow’s house along with Nicholas.
Willow couldn’t help but feel relieved when she saw both of them leave. She knocked on
the bedroom door.
Hearing the sound, Caspian opened the door.
“You already know what happened just now. I had no idea about the situation just now,
Willow still felt the need to explain to him.
tter.” Thinking back to the
“It’s okay. You don’t need to explain it. I understand.” Caspian knew that Willow was
placed in a difficult situation.
“You bragged that you would give me the grandest wedding ever. It’s already become a
hot topic throughout the city. I hope you keep your word. Don’t disappoint me on that
day,” Willow said.
“Trust me, Willow. I’ll definitely make you the happiest bride in Southlake City on the day
of our wedding!” Caspian said determinedly.
“Who would’ve thought that the newly appointed CEO of Southlake Corporation would
consecutively terminate cooperation with several major families when they just stepped in
today?
“Moreover, the reason for the termination was all because they offended someone they
shouldn’t have.
Who exactly did they offend? How does this person have such a great influence?”
Compared to the wedding, Willow was more curious about the company.
“It’s me,” Caspian said calmly.
