Ashley turned back and returned to the living room.
Harvey was sitting on the sofa, holding Emma in his arms. They were on the verge of breaking down. "I've always played by the rules and never held a grudge against someone when it comes to business. Who is it who wants to destroy the Miller family this time? I'm really stumped," Harvey said, then noticing Ashley's odd demeanor when she returned from the outside, he asked, "What are you thinking, Ashley? Did something happen?"
Ashley looked at Harvey, wondering if she should tell her father the truth. She didn't want to exalt Vivian's identity in front of her father, but she had no other choice now, seeing how they were standing on the edge of a cliff.
"Dad," she said. "Perhaps it isn't you but me who
has offended someone."
"You?" Harvey was baffled. "Ashley, what do you know? Who have you offended?"
With that temper of hers, it's not surprising that she has crossed someone. But who exactly is that person to have such power that even Fabian was momentarily helpless?
Afraid that she was no match for Finnick, she said, "If I'm right, what happens to the Miller family is an act of revenge by the president of Finnor Group, Finnick Norton. He's the second son of the Norton family and Fabian's uncle."
Finnick Norton! The famous Finnick NortonlThe cold and formidable Finnick Norton!
Finnick's name came as a bombshell to Harvey and Emma. Finnick had always been quick and efficient in his work. With his astonishing ability and intelligence, he left his enemies trembling in fear, so much so that breathing became an arduous task. Finnick had a net worth of over a hundred million, with many companies and properties under his command. His financial power alone was in a league of its own.
Emma and Harvey were confused.
