116. Rowan’s Anger
Rowan snorted. He didn’t care about the last two sentences.
“You wait here,” he said in a low but firm tone.
The guards nodded. As they were lined up at the side of the stairs, the old man walked upstairs with his assistant. After a few
moments, Rowan slammed the door.
Inside, Frank was leaning against the table. His expression was flat with his hands tucked into his trouser pockets. Obviously, he
already knew about his grandfather’s presence and was ready to welcome him.
“Good afternoon, Grandpa.”
Rowan swung her hand to Frank. In a blink of an eye, Frank’s head spun to match the blow. Reddish color appeared on his
cheek.
“Where’s your brain, Frank? Are you planning to destroy your own future? Do you want Savior to be destroyed?”
Rowan’s voice boomed. His shoulders were shaking. However, instead of bowing, Frank let out a smile.
“The news came out because of Isabela’s actions. Why do you blan me?” He raised an eyebrow, seeming unperturbed by the
slap.
“Stop playing dumb! You’re the one who spread that rumor to the media! You are deliberately ruining your future wife’s good
name!”
“Then what should I do? I refused nicely, but my words fell on deaf ears. I don’t want to have a wife who behaves negatively like
that, Grandpa. She will only be a bomb that’s going to destroy my
reputation anytime. Did Grandfather not take that far into account?”

Before Rowan could reply, Frank raised his finger. “And please take a note. It wasn’t me who ruined her good name, but her
herself. If she behaved well, this commotion would never have happened and I
might have learned to love her.”
“Nonsense! Have you forgotten? His last name is Hall? She is the
bridge to expand our connection. You should bury that disgrace, not bring it to the surface!”
Rowan’s voice was getting louder. However, Frank still responded calmly.
“I wonder why Grandpa insists me on establishing relations with the Hall family? Haven’t they been proven to be weak? Look at
how they handled this scandal. This news wouldn’t have had time to get out if they were really alert.”
“Frank Harper!” Rowan snapped echoingly. His face was very red. “I don’t want to hear anything more from you. Cut your game!
This time, I won’t let you act again.”
Instead of closing his mouth, Frank smiled wider. “What do you want from me, Grandpa? Erase all the news about Isabela? But
the whole world already knows. If I accept Isabela as my wife, I will be lab fool by everyone. Are you okay if Harper’s name is
tarnished like
Rowan’s hands were clenched and shaking. He really wanted to his grandson. “Apologize to the Hall family! Confirm that the
new wrong. Convince everyone that you and Isabela love each other. two have never betrayed and are loyal to each other.”
“You still want me to marry that girl?” Frank asked, more like a murmur. After a moment of silence, he laughed dryly. “Too bad,
you’re late, Grandpa. I have already made a decision and it cannot be changed.”
Rowan’s breath suddenly hitched. He understood the meaning behind
yuu
Frank’s lips pursed. “I have published my response. Not many. Just a few sentences.”
The old man’s chest grew tighter. The twitching on his face became even more intense.
“Sean!” He turned to face the assistant. In an instant, the well-built man handed him his phone.
Apparently, a video had been watched by thousands of people. Frank was wearing the same clothes he was wearing now.
“As the CEO of Savior Group, the future husband of Isabela Hall, I apologize for the news circulating. The mistake made by my
future wife should not cause public uproar. I apologize for failing to guide my fiancée and causing unrest to the wider community.”
Frank’s smile in the video looked sincere and sad.
“However, on the other hand, I also feel the same disappointment that you feel. I actually knew this a long time ago, and have
given her many chances to change. However, with this news breaking out, I think it is time for me to announce that our marriage
must be
cancelled.”
“God damn it!” The phone in Rowan’s hand flew quickly towards Frank. Luckily, Frank was able to catch it swiftly. “How dare you
make such an important decision without asking my permission?”
“I’ve asked your permission to break up with Isabela and date Kara, but you don’t agree.” With an innocent face, Frank returned
the phone. “Because of that, I was forced to do it alone. By now, the whole world is probably praying for Kara and me
Rowan’s eyes couldn’t get any rounder. With an uneven breath, he grabbed the phone roughly then watched what happened
next.
“On this occasion, I would like to announce that about four years ago, I found the true love of my heart. However, considering
that at that time I was still attached to Isabela, we both kept our distance. Now that I am no longer Isabela’s fiancée, I want to
start a relationship. with her.”
Rowan didn’t want to hear any more. He gave the phone to Sean then. raised his finger to Frank’s nose.
“You’ll regret it, Frank. You’ll regret it! You think you can go against my will? You’re so wrong!”
Without further ado, Rowan turned to the door. His face was twice as scary. The servants who eavesdropped trembled, running
away as fast as they could.
“I’ve miscalculated. I shouldn’t have delayed it,” Rowan grumbled as he walked towards the stairs.
“Is there anything I should do, Sir?” Sean asked flatly.
The old man stopped walking. Seeing no one around them, he turned and patted his assistant on the shoulder. “Don’t hesitate
any longer! Poison her so that she can no longer breathe. I wouldn’t want
Harper’s name attached to her.”
Hearing the whisper, Louis gasped. Covering his mouth, he froze and held his breath.
‘Who is she they are talking about? Is that Mommy? They want to poison Mommy?”
Louis sharpened his ears again. The sound of footsteps that had previously stopped in front of his bedroom door had now
disappeared. At that moment, he closed the door slowly.
“This is bad! This is so bad!” He paced back and forth. The book he had left near the door had been forgotten.
“At this rate, I have to support Frank to become Daddy. He is rich and has many bodyguards. Only he can protect Mommy.”
Picking up his book, Louis got out of his room. Right at that moment, a servant came up the stairs with a tray in her hand. The
young woman looked anxious. She didn’t even greet Louis.
“What do you bring?” Louis asked with a firm blink.
The servant gasped. With her eyes moving wildly, she replied, “This is tea for Miss Martin, Young Master. Your mother asked for
it.”
Louis’ brows immediately furrowed. His thoughts were on the poison. ‘It’s impossible for Mommy to ask for tea at lunch time.’
However, before Louis had time to reply, the servant continued her steps. “Excuse me, Young Master.”
