Chapter 1432: Isn’t it a little late for that?
[The Davis Residence]
"I don’t think this is working," Mrs. Davis sighed, seated in the living area with her husband. She glanced at him from the entryway, frowning. "What if Nina hid it from him?"
Mr. Davis remained calm, casually reading a newspaper. "How long do you think she could hide it from him? Keeping a secret from your partner is a terrible start and often leads to distrust. Like I said, we just need to be patient."
"..." Mrs. Davis let out a deep sigh, eyeing the door once more.
She already knew what her husband had done to force Nina to resign from her job. That was why she expected Finn to come home last night, knowing that Nina would ask their son to stand up for her. In their eyes, Nina was nothing.
The Bennets... the entire Bennet Family might have made a name for themselves. However, Nina was not a Bennet. She was just a child, fortunate enough to taste the life of the rich. The Davis couple had already conducted a thorough background check on her after hearing how Nina had tried to harm another student as a child. To them, they already knew Nina from just a few pieces of paper.
"I don’t think this will work," Mrs. Davis said with another deep sigh. "Your son is prideful, and he will not come home easily."
"What do you want me to do?" Mr. Davis huffed and put the newspaper down. "We are already staying here, postponing any work we have because your son is finally becoming rebellious. Even though I want nothing to do with that old bastard, I have to play golf with him and pretend to enjoy it just to ensure he kicks Nina out of his company."
Displeasure was evident on his face the more he spoke. "And I can’t touch Finn’s company since he already put it under the Pierson Corporation. Unless you want me to burn more bridges, which I would, but I didn’t build my company for this."
"This is your son we’re talking about, Francis," Mrs. Davis remarked sternly. "Do you think you’re the only one who had to postpone business deals to stay in Anteca? I also have important meetings that I put on hold because of Finn."
