My Mommy Is A CEO

Just as Casper was anxiously pacing back and forth, the apartment doorbell suddenly rang, startling him so much that he almost spilled his red wine.

This apartment belonged to Casper personally, and Leon was a trusted person who had a key. They usually didn’t ring the doorbell, so who was ringing it now?

Although Casper was uneasy in his heart, he was not one to back down. He walked straight over and opened the door, only to find that the person standing outside was…

“Dad?!” Casper, who usually avoided calling Miles by his name in front of Libby, instinctively exclaimed “Dad” because he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

Standing outside the door was not just Miles alone, but also several of his trusted subordinates behind him. Each person was supporting a subordinate of Casper’s, including Leon who had also fainted.

Miles had a gloomy expression and gave Casper a cold glance before saying to his men,

“Send them in.”

No matter how resourceful Casper was, he couldn’t figure out what happened now. Didn’t Leon and the others go to execute Nia and Kevin? Why was Miles bringing them back one by one now? And looking at them in a mess, some with injuries on their faces, they must have encountered a fight.

Miles watched as his men sent Casper’s subordinates into the apartment one by one, and they were paralyzed or collapsed in the living room before he stepped into the door.

Finally, Casper calmed down from the shock. He turned around and grabbed the shoulder of Miles who was about to walk towards the living room, and angrily said,

“Why are Leon and his team on your hands! What did you do!”

“What did I do?” Miles’ voice was particularly low as he stared directly into Casper’s angry eyes without flinching.

“I am saving you, no, I should say I am saving my son!”

Casper didn’t know how to digest Miles’ words for a moment.

Miles shrugged off Casper’s hand and walked past his subordinates lying on the ground. He sat down on the sofa before speaking.

“Today, I overheard your subordinate talking to Leon on the phone at work. I don’t need to repeat what they were discussing, but regardless of any issues you may have with Nia or Kevin, I will not allow you to commit a crime that could warrant the death penalty in my son’s name!”

Upon hearing this, Casper finally understood what had happened. His eyes darkened suddenly and he looked at Miles coldly, asking,

“Where are Nia and Kevin now…”

“I’ve sent them to the Dekee Hotel.” Miles answered without hesitation.

“How dare you!” Casper exclaimed in anger, taking a step forward and grabbing Miles by the collar. He shouted loudly, “How dare you ruin my plans!”

At this moment, Casper’s subordinates all fainted, and Miles’ people were all sober around. He was forcibly pulled away by his subordinate just as he started.

“Miles! Have you forgotten that your son is still in my hands?! If you spoil my good deeds, aren’t you afraid that I will kill him?!”

As he mentioned his son, Miles’ gaze suddenly turned fierce. He waved his hand to signal his trusted aide to release Casper and stood up himself, staring directly at Casper without any hesitation.

“Jacob, I have heard of your name and seen your methods in Lepus before, but don’t forget, you were still a brat when I, Miles, started the business! Today my son is in your hands and I bear with it. If you really dare lay your hand on him, I assure you, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, you will be torn to pieces!”

This was the first time Miles had shown his fierceness after compromising with him, and Casper could see absolute cold-bloodedness in his eyes. It seemed that he had really pushed him too far.

Casper finally realized that Miles was also a ruthless person who would rather die than surrender when pushed to the brink.

However, he was not afraid in the slightest.

“Even if your reason is good, you are afraid that your son will become a scapegoat in the future. Why do you have to send Nia and Kevin to Dekee Hotel? You bring them back, and you have to discuss with me whether I’ll kill your son!”

“I am not interested in the grievances between you and them. All I want is to preserve my son’s reputation. Besides, both of them are already so badly injured. Even if you bring them back, what can you do? Can you keep them locked up for the rest of their lives?” Miles retorted coldly.

Casper was so angry with Miles that he couldn’t even speak. His face turned red, a rare sight, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Miles sneered and pushed Casper aside before walking towards the door with his subordinates. Before leaving, he turned around and said,

“I have brought back your subordinates. Nia was conscious when I rescued her and she promised to owe me a favor in the future. If you don’t understand my son, perhaps this favor can help you in the future.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Even though Miles said so, it was still like laying by trouble for the future. Casper watched as the door slammed shut and felt his heart turn as cold as if he were submerged in ice water.

He slumped onto the sofa, feeling restless and irritated. Seeing his subordinates lying haphazardly on the ground only added to his anger, prompting him to kick out without hesitation.

“Miles! You better remember this!” he shouted.

After leaving Casper’s house, Miles didn’t look victorious at all. Instead, he seemed even more depressed and despondent. His man approached him and said,

“Mr. Wood, we did nothing wrong today. Regardless of whether or not the young master is still around, we need to figure out a way to deal with Jacob.”

“I understand,” Miles replied in a low voice that sounded weak even as he walked.

Ever since his wife told him that their son’s plea for help was pre-recorded, Miles had suspected something was amiss. However, as a father who refused to give up hope – no matter how slim – he would do everything in his power to bring back his son! And if that wasn’t possible, he would personally tear Jacob apart!

“Now that everything has been taken care of,” sighed the man handing over a phone. “Mr. Wood, you should respond.”

Miles took the phone but waited until everyone had boarded before dialing someone’s number.

Soon enough, a clear voice came through from Lucia on the other end, “Mr. Wood, how are things going?”

“I’ve already sent Nia and Kevin back to Dekee Hotel,” Miles carefully chose his words. “I also explained everything clearly with Casper. He didn’t say much about it.”
