Chapter 128 You Reap What You Sow
He wanted to laugh at himself for being such a fool. Idiot! Why did I marry a woman like her?
If he had held himself back at the time, then he would not have been tied up with her and could
have been with Camila instead. If he had not married that woman, he would not be this humiliated
today and be so blatantly exposed as the husband of a cheating wife. If only he had not listened to
her and consolidated their companies through a partnership to celebrate their wedding anniversary.
But those were simply what-ifs that were not real, and right now, he was bombarded with one truth
after the other. At that moment, his secretary called to report, âPresident Ryan, several people from
the technical department have resigned and some of our major partner companies want to cancel
their contracts with us! They're willing to pay for the damages for breaching the contract. A few of
our suppliers also called and said they wouldn't be doing business with the Ryan Group anymore!
What do we do?â Out of those three things, not one of them was good news. Miles ended the call.
What do we do? How should I know that?
He just felt like laughing.
Florence saw him laughing like a maniac and quickly walked over. âWhat's wrong with you? Why are
you still laughing after such a humiliating event? Think of a way to keep this news under control!â
He looked at her and scoffed, âThat's Silas. If he purposefully released that piece of information, do
you think someone like me can still keep it under control?â She was suddenly silenced by his words.
âIt's all her fault! That cursed wench who dared to accuse someone else of having no shame when
she is the most shameless! She's incapable and a troublemaker! You better divorce her now. Leaving
a woman like her is no big deal!â He smirked. âDid you think she was coming back? Everyone knows
that Silas has made Ryan Company his target now. No one would dare to oppose him and work
with the Ryan Company anymore. We're in a precarious situation. She'll be dumb to come back.â
âVery well then. My son is attractive and rich. Is there a need to worry that you won't find a nice
lady?â After a light chuckle, he did not speak anymore. Mom sure is optimistic. But Florence felt
rather apologetic. âIt's my fault. I really didn't know Silas was that
powerful. I couldn't let my anger go that day.â He leaned his head back in despair. âIt's okay. It
wouldn't have made a difference anyway. I'm just getting what I deserve. There's no one else I can
blame for this!â She probed, âWhy don't you reach out to Camila? After all, you had a thing once
and the person who wronged her was Lyla, not you. To be honest, you're also a victim here. Since
Silas cares so much about Camila, he will listen to her if sheâs the one begging him for mercy.â
He let out a burst of mocking laughter. âWhere would I find the face to ask Camila for help!â
At the same time, Lyla was also facing the same circumstances. Gael was worried that Silas would
target Brooklyn Company, so he insisted that Lyla apologized to Camila.
Lyla's eyes were filled with resentment as she rebuked, âWhat do I have to apologize to her for?
Dad, can't you see what she has done to me?â He retorted, âIf you didn't provoke her first, Camila
wouldn't have been this resolute.â She persisted with tears in her eyes, âThat's because she wrongly
accused me of plagiarizing her work at the major fashion contest. She beat my mother-in-law at
school and even had Silas expel my son. Don't you see all the times she bullied me? All I did was yell
a few words at her over the phone, but I didn't cause her any substantial harm. What did she do?
My wedding anniversary was turned into a joke, and Miles and I are going to get divorced, but I
have to apologize to her. Dad, you're my biological father. Do you have to be this biased?â âShe did
not reveal anything false. If you didn't actually do it, even if she wanted to hurt you, she couldn't
have done so. It's all because you have no self-respect. Can you
still blame someone else?â
