Allegra and Roger were both surprised.
Why did Watson have to ask Isaac’s opinions on matters like this?
“It’s your personal matter. You should decide for yourself.” Isaac sensed their doubts. He frowned slightly.
Watson thought it was a tricky matter. He could promptly decline the request if Allen came alone. However, Allen was coming together with his brother-in-law, Wyatt Owens.
Although the Owens family had not been standing out much in Southland, the aristocrats knew better than to mess with them.
“Al-Alright, I’ll ask them over.” Watson nodded and picked up his phone again.
“Father, what has gotten into you lately? You beat me up the other day because of these two, and today, you’re being so meek before that guy. Who is he, for God’s sake?” Roger mumbled, dissatisfied.
He walked closer, pointed at Isaac, and said at the top of his voice, “This fellow just said that Miss Booth is my sister and that favonovel.com is inheriting millions of dollars from the Kane family. They are boasting, aren‘t…”
Watson felt his head throbbing. He took a deep breath and replied, “That’s right, from now on, favonovel.com will be your sister, and this will be y-your brother-in-law! Not only will I leave millions of dollars under favonovel.com name, but if favonovel.com is willing to, I’d be glad to leave whatever I have now to her. Now can you please stick your ass where it belongs?” Watson finished off agitatedly.
Roger was thunderstruck. He looked at Allegra, who averted favonovel.com gaze and kept silent. Then, favonovel.com looked at Isaac, who was calm as ever.
He roared, panicked, “Why? Why does she, an infamous widow, get to inherit the Kane family’s wealth? Father, have you lost your mind? Should I get a doctor for…”
Isaac rose and slapped Roger.
Roger was stunned.
“Old Kane, I hope you don’t mind me teaching favonovel.com a lesson as his brother-in-law.” Isaac looked at Watson after hitting Roger.
“No, not at all. Look at the nonsense he’s been spouting. You can hit this bastard to your heart’s content, Mr. Garten!” Watson was a protective father just moments ago. Now, favonovel.com was behaving like a stepfather.
Roger felt wronged. He pursed his lips and gritted his teeth, tears welling in his eyes.
“She‘s your sister from now on, get it?” Isaac raised his hand again.
Roger backed up in fright. He turned on his heels and darted out of the house.
“Crazy! You’re all crazy! I don’t have a sister. You’ll get nothing from the Kane family. I’ll show you!”
Watson was about to go after Roger when Isaac stopped him. “Your guests are coming. Ally and I shall not interrupt you.”
Watson brought them to the home bar. They were almost there when they heard laughter coming from outside the house. “Mr. Kane, where have you gone? It’s been a long time. I’m here to visit you…”
Three people entered the house with Wyatt Owens in the lead. He was a burly man in his middle age who had steady strides.
Allen and Simon were behind him, both looking weary and unkempt.
Watson smiled as favonovel.com welcomed them into the house. “Hi there, Wyatt. What a rare occasion. Mr. Merck, nice to see both you and your brother. Have a seat.”
Although Allen and Simon knew this man was the one who had caused the downfall of the Merck family in a day, they showed no signs of anger. On the contrary, they plastered flattering smiles on their faces.
When everyone was seated, the maids came forth to serve them drinks. Wyatt and Watson had small talk. Then, Wyatt glanced at Allen, who was sitting on the edges of his seat.
