Chapter 412
Now that he was already at this point, he knew Vernon was right. There was no way in hell Henry would allow another man to stay in Kate’s heart.
He didn’t care if people would call him selfish or greedy, but he might do something very dangerous or even downright psychopathic if he saw another man right beside Kate.
He glanced at his cousin and wondered if he had the same idea. After all, Vernon claimed their brains were wired similarly. They must’ve had similar ideas about a few dangerous things.
Vernon finally shifted his gaze to Michael, who kept silent the whole time. He also looked defeated, but Vernon couldn’t really blame Michael because he was only following orders from Henry.
"And for you, Michael..." Vernon said, and Michael turned his head towards Vernon. "I know you also regret involving yourself in this mess. But I can’t exempt you from responsibility as well. You must stay by Henry’s side to assist him even in his darkest days."
"I understand," Michael nodded. "I already told Henry that I’ll support him no matter what. After all, we have the same goal in mind."
Vernon didn’t question further. He simply nodded and returned his attention towards Henry, "Henry, I refuse to accept that new company of yours. All I did was invest money, which I got profit in return. It was you who worked hard on it, and you have the talent to become a billionaire in the future."
"And don’t you dare to use Kate as a reason to drop everything and leave. You’re a weak man if you give up now," Vernon said. "Take this from a man who ran away after knowing his beloved woman married another man. I spent a decade regretting every life decision I made. Don’t make the same mistake as me."
Honestly, Henry doubted that Kate would forgive him. He was so cruel and malicious towards her that he deserved to be punished for it.
