Chapter 243 Never Drop Halfway
“Hmph, you think I don’t care about you or your mother?”
Alondra hurriedly apologized, “We never think that way.”
“It’s fine if you do,” Edward said. “I know your mom. She went there only to humiliate herself. She has lived for so long and is still so dumb. She needs a lesson.”
Alondra’s expression froze on her face. She looked at Edward, not knowing why he said
this.
“But you are a good child. I will not let Hendry send you abroad.”
He only had three children.
His eldest son died young, which was devastating for him. And Aryan had alienated himself from Edward, and they rarely saw each other. His daughter, the only one that stayed, was quite sweet, and she had been by his side all these years.
So, Edward naturally didn’t want Hendry to send her away.
But he had no other choice. His company had encountered many problems recently, and he felt more and more helpless. He had to ask Hendry for help.
Hendry helped him, but Alondra and Cindy must be sent abroad in return.
At that time, Edward had no choice but to accept his request. When the company’s crisis

Edward kind of wanted to go back on his word.
was over,
Of course, he did not dare to do so, but he could give Alondra some help without breaking his word.
“I have an assistant called Darcy Pitt. I will give you his contact information later. He
will help you with a lot of things.”
Edward was happy today, so he drank a lot of wine. After he said this, he stood up to
return to his room.
Cindy hurriedly helped him back to his room to rest.
Alondra was left alone. She quietly sat at the table for a long time.
It was not until midnight that she received a friend request from Darcy.
Alondra had been staring at her phone the entire time. She had almost burned a hole in her phone with
her gaze. When her phone finally received a message, she could not help
but heave a sigh of relief.
In the past, she thought that Edward was invincible.
But after what happened today, she learned that no one was invincible. Edward was old. Although he
looked strong on the outside, he had a soft heart.
His children were his weakness and had become his only weakness.
Once she saw Edward’s weakness, the high and mighty father of hers suddenly became no longer scary.
Once she knew a man’s weakness, she could use him, no matter who he was.
Alondra’s eyes became unfathomable. She picked up her phone and began to talk to
Darcy.
Late at night.
Kaylah quietly put the package back into the kitchen. Then, she tiptoed back to her
room. However, she saw a person at the door and was startled.

“Zion! Why aren’t you sleeping in the middle of the night? Why are you waiting at my door?”
Zion did not answer her question. Instead, he asked, “Where did you go?”
“L… I didn’t go anywhere. I only went to the company.”
Kaylah felt guilty and dared not look up at Zion.
Zion let out a snort of laughter.
“Still lying? I just asked Aryan. You didn’t go to the company!”
“I didn’t go to the ZiKay Group. I went to Andy.”
“So you went to Andy’s family’s company?”
Kaylah nodded.
Zion’s expression suddenly changed as he shouted, “You’re still lying!”
Kaylah shuddered and was frightened.
Seeing her like this, Zion was a little worried and unconsciously softened his voice.
“I’ve asked Roger. He said that you were taking food to a friend until his wound completely healed.
“Is this friend Hendry?”
