Tessa nodded. "Exactly, Susan got arrested, the Reed Group went bankrupt, and Patrick probably can't even afford to keep that other family of his afloat." "The entire Reed family's down to just Jonathan now. And Lillian's in the worst shape of all." Whenever Lillian cup, Tessa couldn't help the satisfaction that laced her voice.
"And then there's Ethan-used to treat Lillian like she was his true love. Look at them now; what a perfect pair," The Keene family and that snob Madeline used to think Lillian wasn't good enough for Ethan.
Now things were different. They'd both hit rock bottom-neither one had any room to look down on the other.
Stella took a sip of water and said, "Back then, Ethan was their only son, so Mr. Judson had no choice but to go along with him. But now that there's another son, he actually has options." Tessa nodded enthusiastically. "Right? If you ask me, Mr. Judson really dropped the ball. Sutton's way more capable than Ethan ever was." Even if it meant handing Keene Group over to Sutton, anyone would've been better than Ethan.
But now, with Sutton in the picture and eligible for a share of the inheritance, Ethan had becirrelevant. Downstairs, the gossip was flying fast and loud....

After hearing what Victor had to say, his expression shifted, his gaze growing layered with meaning-especially when his eyes drifted down to Victor's lower abdomen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe chuckled lightly. "You, huh..
But then he trailed off, suddenly unsure how to finish the sentence.
Honestly, after overhearing Marie mutter her doubts about Victor's performance in that department over the years. Abraham had started to wonder himself if there was something wrong.
But now Abraham raised a brow "You're really reacting?" Victor nodded, "Yeah. First time." Abraham frowned. "Never happened before?" Victor shook his head. /Never." Abraham fell silent. So there really had been an issue after all. Which meant... if he was reacting now, the issue must've had something to do with Tessa-and she must've been the one who fixed it.
Lewis had overheard everything, and he was floored.
y? He knew Victor had issues in that area; Silas just wouldn't believe him.
And now it turned out that tiny little woman had cured him.
that was the case.
Before Abraham could say anything. Lewis suddenly dropped to his knees with a loud thud. "Mr. Abraham, please don't take that little girl away!" 1/2 +10 Free Coins Chapter 477 First Reaction Ever The sudden kneeling startled both Abraham and Victor. When they realized what had just happened, Victor's face turned pitch black.
But Lewis didn't notice.....
He kept going, "Mr. Abraham, Victor's condition used to be really serious. He never reacted, no matter how stunning the girl was right in front of him. And now, finally, someone actually gets a reaction out of him. Please, help him out; let her stay At that moment, Lewis was genuinely thinking of Victor's well-being.
He just couldn't wrap his head around why Victor liked someone like Tessa.

"Dude, she's way too small, don't you think? At least-" His thoughts raced ahead of his mouth; he was about to suggest Victor go for someone with a better figure.
But before he could finish, he noticed Victor's expression had darkened.
And the way Victor was staring at him-it looked like he wanted to eat him alive.
"Dude, I-I just... I mean.. Mr. Abraham?" Lewis' brain short-circuited, and he turned to Abraham for help.
The man was calmly rolling a string of beads in his hand and gave a knowing smile.
"Looks like you haven't been raising him properly all these years. After all this time, and his spine's still so soft." Victor said nothing.
Lewis' mouth twitched.
Soft spine!
Wait a minute-when he'd first met Abraham, he'd knelt just like this, begging him to take him in. Abraham had refused, and this exact act of kneeling had only made him more unwilling A man like that would never keep someone so spineless at his side.
Later, when Victor had walked by, he'd paused and said, "You'll followfrom now on." That was the only reason Lewis had been allowed to stay....
Which was also why he'd always been willing to risk everything for Victor.
Lewis lowered his head, "I just wanted Ms. Tessa to stay." Victor gritted his teeth. "Get out."
Looking at Lewis groveling like that, Victor couldn't it with the man he wasn't reconcite it е man he was on the battlefield. He wasn't like this when facing enemies. How could he drop to his knees so easily? Was he even a man? 2
