Meanwhile, after Jayden Dunn and Harris Dunn removed Kiara Dunn from the car, medical tests confirmed that she didn’t suffer any internal injuries. After a detailed discussion, they decided to take her home for treatment and rest.

Kiara was still terrified, even after being injected with a sedative. Her screams and outbursts could be heard intermittently.

Jayden and Harris asked the doctor to take care of her. The father and son returned to the living room, their faces grave as they began their discussion.

“Theo, I can’t stand by while your sister is treated like this…” Jayden began.

With a steady gaze, Theo responded, “Dad, when you say you can’t tolerate this, are you talking about Roy Lewis and Richelle Dunn, or are you referring to The Thompsons?”

“Both!” came the straightforward reply from Jayden.

Jayden had tried to stop Kiara earlier when she planned to expose the photographs of her with Roy Lewis and Timmy Lewis.

Theo knew very well that every past incident they uncovered could break their family apart.

“I warned you before, but you didn’t listen. You were just obsessed with the fact that your wife became a prisoner, and your most beloved daughter had turned into a wanton woman, ridiculed and scorned by the world.”

“You think Roy Lewis and Richelle Dunn are to blame for this.”

Jayden was surprised to find that at this critical point, his son was not siding with him, but seemed to be criticizing him instead.

“Theo, what are you saying? Are you suggesting we let your sister be bullied like this?”

Theo had intended to help his sister seek justice, but given their situation, The Dunns were increasingly isolated and helpless.

Now, all he wanted to do was protect the considerable family fortune that remained with the Dunns.

He knew better than anyone that if they continued to aggravate the situation, they wouldn’t only lose their lives but the Dunn Group, their primary asset, might also be lost.

“Dad, I want to rescue mom, and I don’t want Kiara to be bullied.”

“But tell me, do you think you can take on The Lewis or The Thompsons?”

“Can we, The Dunns, match The Lewis in influence or wealth? Or can we compete with The Thompsons in terms of power and connections?

Unfortunately, your sister managed to offend the daughter of The Thompsons. Although she is just a lesser member of the family, she has won the favour of the old lord of The Thompsons. She commands considerable influence over at least three provinces. Tell me, how do you plan to compete with them?”

The more Jayden listened to his son’s words, the more he felt his son was deflating his spirit.

However, had he been in a clear state of mind, he would have arrived at the same conclusion himself.

He was not able to think clearly due to the severe retaliations he had to endure for his wife and daughter. As a result, he lost his ability to reason and analyze normally.

At this moment, he felt like his son had betrayed him.

“Harris Dunn, have you taken a bribe from Roy Lewis?”

Harris almost choked on his father’s words.

“Dad, even if I wanted to betray you, Roy Lewis would have to trust me first!”

As Jayden began to become suspicious and paranoid, Harris realized that it was impossible to have a reasonable conversation with him. He felt the need to reiterate his position.

“Dad, if you still want to save mom and sister, you need to swallow today’s humiliation.”

Although Harris had always been prideful, he was constantly humbled and defeated by reality.

He slowly understood that sometimes, it is better to bow your head when circumstances compel you to.

At least this way, you can minimize the damage.

Unfortunately, his father didn’t seem to understand this principle.

Or maybe he did, but the events of late had agitated him to the point where he became irrational.

His way of thinking and dealing with matters had become increasingly extreme.

Upon hearing Harris’ plea, Jayden suddenly raised his hand, landing a heavy slap on his son’s face.

“You ungrateful son, are you advising me on behalf of others? I see, you’re afraid this matter will affect you, aren’t you?”

Harris did agree with this notion to some extent.

He wasn’t a fool. Why should he involve himself in a matter that he knew could only lead to disaster?

To his surprise, Jayden actually struck him.

“Dad, no matter what you do now, there’s no chance of winning. Instead, we’ll invite more severe retaliation!”

“Are you sure you want to do this, Dad?”

Jayden’s teeth clenched in anger as he thought about his daughter’s plight. “Why should I not fight back? This is all because of Richelle, that bastard’s instigation! Even if I can’t confront Roy Lewis, can’t I at least attack her?” “That bitch, she holds a grudge against us for what we did to her. But she doesn’t consider that without us, she could never have had those three bastards with Roy Lewis. Could someone like her have ever been accepted into The Lewis family?”

“In short, all of this is her fault, and I will make sure she doesn’t die peacefully!”

When Harris realized he couldn’t persuade his father, he held his tongue.

He decided to wait until Jayden cooled down before trying to reason with him again.

In Lordon’s social circuit, updates about Kiara Dunn’s situation and rumors spread rapidly, like episodes of a drama serial.

Harris had managed to stop Jayden from making further provocations and retaliations. However, troubles piled up one after the other.

One day, he returned to his company and opened his work email account, only to find an anonymous email.

“Pay US$13,670,000 and get the photos and original video in return!”
