Chapter 489: Chapter 490

Chapter 490 Thea introduced herself, saying, “I am Jade, and I came here specifically to visit your master. Oh, this is Thorne, he came to the Miller Group to offer his services.”

The security guard warmly said, “Please wait a moment, I will go and inform them right away.“”

Not long after, the gatekeeper walked out with a gloomy expression.

“Miss Fletcher, please go back. My master said he didn’t see any visitors today.”

Thea was taken aback, already having a rough idea in her mind.

“Theodore, it seems that we offended someone from the Miller family yesterday, and they now have a negative impression of us.

What should we do?” She was anxiously pacing back and forth. She could distance herself from the Miller family, but Thorne’s intention to connect with them was to acknowledge his relatives. If he was rejected, this path of acknowledging his relatives would be doomed to be unsuccessful.

Thorne smiled and comforted her, “Thea, don’t worry.”

Thorne took out a ring from his pocket and handed it to the gatekeeper, saying, “Please deliver this to Mr. Robert. If he sees this ring and still refuses to meet us, then we will never bother him again.”

“Okay.”

The gatekeeper went in with a ring.

“Grandfather!”

In the study, Robert heard the voice of the gatekeeper and couldn’t help but frown. “Didn’t I say it? I didn’t see Miss Fletcher and Thorne.”

The gatekeeper trembled and said, “Sir, the young master in the wheelchair asked me to deliver an item to you. He said that if you see it and still don’t want to see him, he will never disturb you again.”

Robert stopped his brush and chuckled twice, lifting his head and saying, “Bribe me? It seems he is young after all. Didn’t he do his homework before visiting me? The thing I hate the most in my life is people with improper conduct who accept bribes.”

After saying it impatiently, he waved his hand, “Let them go.”

The gatekeeper, however, said, “Sir, but I see that this thing is not expensive. To bribe you with it would also be too disrespectful to my worth.”

Robert never imagined that someone would bribe him, let alone treat him with such contempt.

He waved to the gatekeeper, “What’s that? Bring it over here 15.80%

Chapter 490 and let me have a look.”

The security guard held the ring in front of him.

Robert saw the ring, and his eyes widened suddenly.

The weathered face suddenly became excited.

“How could he have this ring?”

“He was just the young master of the Sanchez family, what right did he have to possess Olivia’s personal belongings?”

“How could Dayton casually dispose of Olivia’s belongings?”

He angrily ordered the gatekeeper, “Go, bring him in. I want to see what benefits he wants to gain. Hmph, he’s just a fallen scion of a declining family.”

“Yes.”

At the entrance.

Thea and Thorne waited for a while, unfortunately, they ran into their enemies.

The Miller family’s Mr. Joshua and Victoria had just returned from outside. Upon seeing Thea and Thorne, Mr. Joshua’s face was full of mockery, “Oh, who is this? Just yesterday, you were full of pride, refusing to bow down for a mere five measures of rice.

And today, you come begging at my doorstep, bowing and scraping?”

Thea’s face turned pale. However, thinking about Theodore’s 32.71%

Victoria was skilled at archery, “My sister suddenly lowered herself. She must have had a favor to ask of someone.”

Mr. Joshua despised people without integrity, and immediately looked down upon Thea. He sarcastically said, “Unfortunately, my elder brother despises people who grovel for fame and fortune. Miss Fletcher, go away, my brother will not see you. There is no need to embarrass yourself here.”

Thorne’s eyes shot out a cold glare, “It is pathetic that the Miller family raised a brainless fool like you.”

Mr. Joshua’s face turned pale, “Since you look down upon our Miller family, why bother coming here to apply for a job? Our Miller family will not hire disloyal dogs like you. You may leave.”

Thorne coldly said, “The Miller family was not under your control.”

Mr. Joshua sneered, “I see you are persistent like the Yellow River. I’ll be honest with you, I have already informed my elder brother about your despicable behavior. My elder brother made his position clear yesterday. We, the Miller family, will not employ someone with such a dishonest character, even if they have great talent. So, even if you were to die here today, you would never meet my brother.”

Victoria took the opportunity to add insult to injury, saying, “Mr. Joshua has made his words so clear. Why do you sist on clinging on desperately? It’s so embarrassing.”

O Chapter 490 Thea clenched her fist, if others treated her like this, she would turn around and leave.

But today, Thorne’s matter of acknowledging her relatives was at stake, and she didn’t want any trouble. She just wanted to get along with the other party and make a profit.

“Mr. Joshua, it is better to resolve conflicts than to hold grudges,” Thea pleaded, but Thorne refused.

He reached out his hand and pulled Thea towards him, saying with concern, “Thea, why bother talking to him? He doesn’t welcome us, let’s just go. It’s not worth it for you to be so humiliated because of me.”

“Theodore, stop it.”

At this moment, the gatekeeper suddenly rushed out angrily. He said to Thorne and Thea, “Please come inside and talk.”

Thea was overjoyed and quickly said to the gatekeeper, “Could you please help me with the way down?”

The gatekeeper said, “Please.”

Thea pushed Thorne and ignored Victoria and Mr. Joshua, then followed the gatekeeper inside.

Victoria was jealous to the point of itching, but she pretended to be ignorant and puzzled, wondering, “Why would the boss invite them in? Could it be that the boss wants to collaborate with the Fletcher family?”

Mr. Joshua was also full of doubts, “Strange, my brother clearly had no interest in those two. It seems like these two have some tricks up their sleeves.”

Chapter 490 “Let’s go and have a look,”

11 288 Vouchers When Mr. Joshua and Victoria arrived at the door of Robert’s study, they were stopped by the butler. “Mr. Joshua, the master says he is busy with a visitor at the moment and doesn’t want to be disturbed.”

Mr. Joshua was very uneasy.

A sense of powerlessness that he had lost control overwhelmed him.

His situation in the Miller family was actually quite awkward, as he was the result of Sir Miller’s one–night stand.

However, even though Sir Miller’s first wife had been dead for many years, he had no affection for his mother. His mother had originally tried to manipulate him to gain power, but Sir Miller ultimately chose to stay loyal to his son.

Sir Miller said to his biological sons, “I did not kill him, so I let him stay. You will provide him with food in the future. As for the inheritance rights, he is not qualified.”

Over the years, thanks to the kindness of the Roberts brothers, he was able to live a glorious life as Mr. Joshua.
