Chapter: 365
Was this really their usual death stare and stoic commander?
Who exactly was the person on the other side of the phone?
How did they manage to make an esteemed military officer act so meekly like this?
At Fallridge Haven.
“Father! Please help Dustin; otherwise, he’ll die!” Sheila begged on her knees.
“Hmph! You have the audacity to request assistance for him?! He is responsible for Xavier’s death! That is the gravest of offenses! The Horst army has already assembled all of Swinton’s finest warriors! No one can save him now!” Caden spoke with a frigid tone.
“Father! Dustin has rescued me on numerous occasions. Please help him, for my sake!” Sheila pleaded, tears streaming down her face.
Ever since she returned to Fallridge Haven, she hadn’t stopped begging his father for his help. That was because only her father could go against the Horst army.
“It is exactly because he’s saved you that I refrained from taking his life!” Caden retorted coldly.
“Father! I will do as long as you save Dustin!” Sheila begged on all fours.
Soon, her knees started to bruise.
“You fool! You have no idea what you’re doing!”
Caden slammed the table as he stood up.
“Do you want me to cross the Horst family for a nobody? Have you no care about what might happen to the rest of us?!”
“I don’t care about the others! I just know that Dustin saved me, and I must repay him!” Sheila said with tearful eyes.
“You“..you’re being foolish and naive! Claudia! Bring her downstairs and keep an eye on her. She is not allowed to leave Fallridge Haven!” Caden was fuming.
“Yes, sir!” Claudia replied as she dragged Sheila away.
“Claudia! Please, help me, would you?” Sheila’s eyes were swollen red from her tears.
“Dummy, it’s not worth it for a stranger.” Claudia sighed.
She could see that Sheila had fallen for Dustin. However, this love was destined to fail. She was from a rich family, and he was just an ordinary guy with no background. They were worlds apart.
“Claudia! Let me call Grandpa. As long as he agrees, Dustin will be saved!” Sheila begged.
“Sheila, General Murray has no longer been concerned with these matters. Your father is the one in charge of everything now.” Claudia shook her head.
“No matter what, I must give it a try. I won’t give up!” Shella said, full of stubbornness.
“Alright then I hope you don’t regret it.” Claudia could only pass her phone to Sheila.
From her standpoint, Sheila was wasting her energy.
