Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby novel Chapter 2115

“Besides, I could tell you have feelings for Dr. Felch, right? I'm sure you'll be glad if you get to keep her in the country.”

“But...”

“Stop acting like a naggy wench.” Federico did not want to waste his energy on William anymore. “If you want me to investigate the contamination of the water source, then do as I say. Otherwise, I'll turn a blind eye to that incident. And I'll still get your cousins to do the job on your behalf. If this happens, trust me, you'll not get anything out of it.”

Federico's warning sounded like a threat.

William knew he had no choice but to resign to his fate. “All right, Grandpa. I'll heed your advice.”

“That's more like it,” Federico responded with a smile of satisfaction. “Everything I'm doing now is for your own good. After all, you're my successor and will take over my position in the future. Besides, your leg will only recover in another half a year. Isn't it great to have her take care of you?”

“Yes.” William decided to play along and not refute Federico.

“You can leave now.” Federico gestured for him to go. “Go back and take a rest.”

William froze for a moment. “But they're already here, aren't they?”

He thought Federico would reprimand his cousins in front of him and investigate the poisoning of the water source. But he asked me to leave, so...

“It takes time to sort things out,” Federico explained. “I'll keep my promise and look into it, so don't worry. Have faith in your grandpa, okay?”

William could only keep mum after getting Federico's reassurance. He nodded and said, “All right. Got it.”

Federico then gestured for a subordinate to come in and wheel William out.

Before leaving, William heard his cousins greeting Federico. “Grandpa, we miss you!”

Federico responded with a laugh. “Come, come. We have top-grade red wine to go with tonight's dinner.”
