Dauntless God Of War

Chapter 286

“Ugh, it's pointless to keep berating you by now. I don't think the Big Three are going to be guilt-free for long. We'll have to stick with our original plan and pray that it's still useful. Otherwise...”

After that, the father and his children discussed the things they could do to make Harold forgive their family.

Christie knew that she had messed up big time, and since she had lived abroad for years, it was easy for her to accept her father's plan without any protest.

It was for the sake of the family, after all. If the family was gone, so would she.

Meanwhile, Harold asked his men to check the records in the airport. Once he realized that Autumn was gone, he had no choice but to give up and head home.

He was not planning to look into the matter any further if those photos and videos did not appear in any media anymore.

However, if they do, he would not let her go as long as she was still on this planet.

After leaving the airport, Harold called Isabella, but the latter did not pick up his call.

She did not reply even when he sent an explanatory message to her.

Everything at home was as usual. His parents-in-law were in, but there was no sign of Isabella around.

Benson and Pauline, who were sitting on the couch, parted their lips when they saw Harold. Yet, they hesitated to speak. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Mom, Dad, just speak your mind. You don't need to be like this,” Harold said, figuring that they must have seen the trending topic from the way they were hesitating.

He decided that it was pointless to hide anything from them.

“Harold, please don't think of us as trying to intervene in your life, but Isabella's our only daughter. No parents will want their children to suffer. We just want to find out what that trending topic is all about,” Pauline said in the most indirect manner she could think of.

“It's simple, really. Craig treats Marilyn especially well because of me, and when I was at the party with Marilyn, some jealous people drugged us. Unfortunately, at the same time, Marilyn wanted to test if my feelings for Bella were real or not, so this happened,” Harold briefly explained to Benson and Pauline.

In a way, he wanted them to convey the explanation to Isabella as well.

“I see. Well, we'll talk to Bella about this. Don't feel too pressured.”

Both Benson and Pauline let out sighs of relief after hearing Benson's explanation.

As long as Harold did not mean to do it, even if they felt uncomfortable with the matter, they would not blame Harold for it.

After all, he was a victim too.

Both Benson and Pauline trusted Harold, for he was the God of War. He could have any women he wanted, and there was no point in him lying to them.

After returning to his room, Harold checked the internet for related news.

It was then he saw that all news relevant to that incident had been removed.

The next day, Harold went to work as usual.

The moment he stepped into the office, everyone in the department turn to look at him curiously.

Just as Harold took a seat, his coworker leaned over and asked curiously, “Harold, who are you really? How can you get Dellmoor's Big Three to listen to you as if they're your lackeys?”

“I'm just a normal white-collar worker. They came to me because they were looking into Marilyn's matter,” Harold said, whipping up a lie without batting a lash.

He made it seem as if that was the truth, and that made his coworker question himself.
