Chapter 155 You Are at My Mercy
“Believe me. I’ll lead Southlake Corporation out of this crisis. But I need your help. As long

your best interest at heart.” Willow was feeling helpless.
The company was indeed in a critical situation, and her only option was to beg the Stewart
family.
“Willow, I suggest that you stop spouting nonsense. In fact, you are not cut out for this

mocked.
“Do you really want to terminate all the contracts with Southlake Corporation? We have it
in black and white. Any party that terminates the agreement has to pay damages for

thought it through? You really want to end all cooperation with Southlake Corporation?”
“Since when was it your turn to speak out, loser? Stewart Group has already signed a
contract with Glorious Group,” Henry said scornfully.
“That’s right. It’s just as Henry said. Our family has chosen to work with Glorious Group,”
Marilyn said.
“Caspian, you know you can just stay silent, right? Who gave you the right to speak?
Besides, does Southlake Corporation have anything to do with you?”

and left.
Caspian followed behind her and left Stewart Residence as well.
On their way home, Willow was bawling.
“Willow, why are you crying? I’ll help you settle the problems,” Caspian comforted.
“I’m not crying because of the company. It’s the family. The way they treated us really

way to save Southlake Corporation?”
“I haven’t thought of anything yet. But for now, let’s find someplace to eat. You didn’t get
to eat anything just now,” Caspian said.
“Okay.” Willow nodded.

walking up to her to greet her. “If it isn’t the No.1 most beautiful woman in Southlake City!
It’s

“I don’t know you. Please leave!” Willow was already in a foul mood. This person was

“Ms. Stewart’s temper sure is fiery! I am Greg Norris, the CEO of Glorious Group,” Greg
said while smiling.
Willow and Caspian looked at each other. They did not expect to meet Greg here.
“If there’s nothing else, please leave me alone,” Willow said, feeling rather frustrated.
“I’d like to invite Ms. Stewart to join Glorious Group. What do you think?” Greg said.
“Impossible!” Willow rejected.
“Oh, really? Just wait till I bring down Southlake Corporation. I wonder if you’d still be this
arrogant then?” Greg guffawed.
“Why are you buzzing around like a fly? Aren’t you done?” Caspian saw how disrespectful
Greg was acting and had to chime in.
He could never get used to people like this.
“You must be that infamous good–for–nothing son–in–law, Caspian?” Greg mocked.
“That’s right!” Caspian said calmly.

jumping around in pain.
Caspian was the one who threw the cup onto his face.

“Caspian, you punk! You dare attack me!” Greg was seething.
The president of Glorious Group was being humiliated by a loser like Caspian in front of
everyone.
“Anyone who dares to touch my wife, there’s only one thing in store for you–death!”
Caspian said chillingly.
Do you know who I am? I am the boss of Glorious Group! You must be sick of staying in
Southlake City, huh?” Greg yelled.
“So? You’re clearly from Diatoran, and yet you crave that Tigra nationality. Mark my words.
If you try to do anything funny in Southlake City, I will make sure to kill you!” Caspian
simply retorted.
“You ignorant bastard! I’ll have you punished here in front of everybody!” Greg was livid.
The situation became tense instantly.
His bodyguards had all gone into formation and were ready to strike.
