"Why can't I?" Harvey bit his lip and clung to Bonnie's arm. "I want to be with my Mommy Bonnie! You found a new girlfriend, but I don't like her at all, Mr. Jim!
Jim narrowed his eyes at Harvey's words.
He knew that if he did not bring Harvey home that night, this little rascal would really disown him!
If Harvey had been elsewhere, Jim would have been capable of using brute force to bring Harvey away from Bonnie, but this was Joshua's house and hence, his territory.
He could ignore Bonnie’s feelings, but not Joshua’s.
If Joshua were displeased by this, he could choose to destroy Landry Group as quickly as that.
Jim did not even dare to imagine the consequences of this.
"Jim." Charlotte let out a sigh, as though she could tell why he was hesitating, and said in a low voice, "Why don't we go home to think this through? Now that Harvey is so determined, we can't possibly try to forcefully take him. Besides..."
She let out another sigh. "We can't afford to offend Joshua Lynch..."
"He’s my son, Charlotte." Jim, who had always been obedient and relenting toward her, suddenly refused to listen to anything she said.
Harvey and Shelly were his children. If he chose not to bring Harvey home with him that night, it would be even more difficult to do so in the future.
He knew that Harvey would take his returning home without him as a silent agreement of their separation.
Jim could not let this happen!
