Revenge is best served cold

Upon hearing this, Viona felt a pang of guilt. "Young Master..."

"So, if you don't let me out, I'll spill the beans about you wetting the bed at twelve, and how at thirteen, during your first period, you wrote yourself a farewell letter. I remember every word of it, I..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Viona's face darkened. "What kind of young master are you? If you dare expose me, you're dead meat!"

"Viona, please, I'm begging you. I really need to get out! I'm Angelo, not Kiran! I want to live for myself. Sophie and the others see me as a friend, and I feel the same. I can't just hide abroad seeking safety while knowing they're in danger! You know me best, you'll agree with me, right?"

"I..."

Viona's heart wavered for a moment.

Just then, Caelum walked out from inside the room.

Seeing Caelum's stern face, Angelo's expression became tense. "It's too boring staying in my room all the time! I was just chatting with Viona."

"You think I don't know what's on your mind?"

Caelum took a deep breath. "You want to go out and mess around? Well, I can tell you right now, that's not happening!"

Hearing this, Angelo was about to retort, but Caelum continued, "However, I do have a task for you."

"You won't even let me out, and now you want me to do a task for you? I'd rather die than do it!"

Seeing this, Caelum's face darkened. "Rather die than do it, huh? Fine, then we, the Pollard family, will just turn a blind eye to Devonport! With Gordon there, I'm sure nothing will go wrong."

After saying this, Caelum turned to go back to his room.

Hearing Caelum's words, Angelo was momentarily stunned. He quickly reached out to grab Caelum. "Dad, what did you say? What do you want me to do?"

"I want you to go to Devonport as Kiran, to establish and strengthen ties on behalf of me and the Aldridge family, and at the same time, work on a long-term strategic partnership with the young lady from the Russell family. You said you'd rather die than do it, so what's there to discuss!"

Hearing this, Angelo quickly blocked Caelum's path, anxiously saying, "Willing, willing! I'm very willing! I agree!"

"Not dying anymore?"

"Not dying, not dying!"

Angelo grinned. "I knew my dad wasn't like those old fogeys at all! You're the coolest, best dad in the world!"

Angelo gave Caelum a big, warm hug, then immediately turned around to drag out his already packed luggage.

Seeing Angelo all set to go, Caelum's face darkened.

So eager to leave, huh?

"Dad! I love you to death! Goodbye!"

Angelo swaggered off, dragging his suitcase downstairs.

And Sandy quickly slipped out from the room as well, giving Caelum a big, warm

bear hug. "Daddy! I love you to death too!"noveldrama

With that, Sandy was about to drag her luggage and leave with Angelo.

"Hold it right there!"
