Chapter: 24

“Emmett, what are you waiting for? Take the recording and check it.”

Carlos cast a cold glance at Emmett, furrowing his eyebrows.

Emmett, who was just an onlooker at the time, snapped back to his senses and walked up to Debbie.

“Miss Nelson…”

Before he could finish his words, Debbie handed him her phone casually.

The moment Carlos asked Emmett to check the recording, Terence’s face turned pale with fear. He

broke out in a cold sweat, but didn’t dare to say anything.

Emmett’s report came in less than five minutes.

“Mr. Hilton, there’s no problem with the recording. There is no trace of tampering in it,” Emmett said

respectfully.

However, much to his surprise, Carlos looked at him as if he had said something wrong.

Emmett had been working for Carlos for many years now. How could he not know what his boss

meant? He swallowed nervously and added, “Mr.

Hilton, the director of the technology department checked the recording in person. I’ll ask him…”

“Never mind,” Carlos interrupted him in a blunt voice.

Although Emmett could be lazy sometimes, he knew that Emmett wouldn’t dare to lie to him about such

an important task.

Carlos cast a cursory glance at Debbie as he gestured at Emmett with his hand to give the phone back

to her.

Meanwhile, Brandon had thought that he would be able to turn the tables in his favor when he heard

Terence’s and Gail’s solemn statements, but he had no idea that things would take a turn for the worse.

Gritting his teeth in anger, he kicked his son again and apologized to Carlos.

“Mr. Hilton, I’m so sorry. It seems my son has forgotten how to behave.

It’s all my fault. I’ll see to it that this never happens again. I’LL ask someone at the administration office

to cancel the demerit right now!”

Terence cried in pain, but he didn’t try to defend himself again. He was so ashamed and embarrassed.

With a cold glance at Brandon, Carlos said, “It’s not you who should apologize.”

After saying that, he turned to look at Terence, who was sitting on the ground, wincing in pain.

“Yes, yes!” Brandon kicked his son again and urged, “Apologize to

Debbie now!”

Although Terence didn’t know who Carlos was, he could tell from his father’s obsequious look that

Carlos must have been a very important man. As such, he had no choice but to stand up and apologize

to Debbie.

“I’m sorry, Debbie.”

Debbie noticed the lack of sincerity in Terence’s expression, so she responded with a perfunctory

glance.
