Chapter 74
"Alright, it's been almost a year since we've met. We should really have a father-son talk," Dexter said, smiling
as he set his fork down and stood up
The father and son entered the study and closed the door behind them. Not even five minutes later, the sound of
items being smashed echoed through the house.
Myra approached the door several times and contemplated whether to knock but ultimately decided. against it.
Kayla tried to eavesdrop, but the study's soundproofing was so good that she couldn't make out a single word.
In the study, Dexter was seething with anger. As he hurled another vase, his face flushed, and the veins on his
forehead bulged as he pointed at Sebastian.
"Are you back to pissoff on purpose? You spent all those years abroad. Now that you're back, the first thing

gathered sinformation about the bridge construction project and rushed back, leaving his work behind.
Yet, he never would have expected Dexter to sacrifice Felicia just to protect himself.
"Dad, how could you treat Felicia as a bargaining chip? Especially since Arnold was supposed to be with Kayla,
and you're tying him to Felicia. Does that even make sense?"
'But it's Mr. Lawson Senior who insists on Licia. You know the power the Lawson family holds, and do you hink |
can turn him down every time?"
Unless they were willing to sever ties with the Lawsons, no one could dissuade Matthew from his lecision.
jebastian paused and spoke in a grave tone. "Dad, is it that difficult to admit your selfishness? Can't you eject
the Lawsons, or do you dare not to?"
exter's face flushed with anger as he slammed his hand on the table. "Yes, I'm selfish, and I've failed icia. But
what choice do | have? If the bridge construction project isn't dealt with, what do you expect le to do?" here are
many ways to handle it," Sebastian said calmly. His gaze was cold.
ince the bridge is flawed, it's better to make a public announcement and demolish it before anything orse
happens.
s a gesture of apology and compensation, the bridge must be rebuilt. But if we do the rebuild, the public ight
lose faith in our construction standards. So let's not do it ourselves. Instead, we donate a billion illars to Khogend
for the new bridge.
y doing this, we can minimize the negative impact we receive and assure the public that Fuller Group is mmitted
to the highest standards of quality control with zero tolerance for flaws or risks.
ie public can continue monitoring our future work."
er Sebastian spoke, he tapped the table and added, "This bridge was initially funded by the Fullers for >gend's
transportation system. It cost a billion dollars. Now, rebuilding and donating another billion lars is another
charitable act." ce it was a charitable act, the Fullers would show evident sincerity, and the public opinion would

their favor,
Dexter sighed. "But those who wish to frme have evidence. | can't escape responsibility as the general
supervisor."
Sebastian spoke in a steady and clear voice, "That's all the more reason to act quickly. We should find a less
damaging reason to move forward before they can release the evidence.
"Once the bridge is demolished and they've lost the initiative, what good will their evidence be? Where's the
proof?"
As Dexter listened, his eyes brightened. The plan could actually work.
Sebastian continued, "So we need to move fast Dad. If we wait until the bridge collapses in an accident, it'll be
too late."
"Let's do it your way!" Dexter slapped the table and immediately called his secretary to get things moving.
Sebastian remained composed. "And as for Licia's engagement to Arnold. It should be called off as well, don't
you think?"
