StarNovelMalcolm rushed forward when he saw Adam and shouted, “This man and woman barged into my
home, Mr. Adam. They killed my daughter-in-law and now want to kill my son.”
“I implore you to do justice for the Fox family!”
Adam scowled as he noticed Harper with an ashen face lying in a pool of blood.
He was about to respond when he realized that the man Malcolm was referring to was Skylar, and he
instantly became terrified.
He quickly regained his composure. He ignored Malcolm, took a quick step forward, bowed to Skylar,
and exclaimed, “Mr. Stone!”
Buzz!
Malcolm’s mind was racing.
Mr. Stone?
Adam, the Currey family’s son, actually addressed this fellow as Mr. Stone?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAdditionally, he couldn’t have honored him more respectfully than that!
That can only mean Skylar’s status is far superior to Adam’s.
God! Who had Harper and Ava riled up? What kind of wrath had they inflicted on the Fox family?!
Malcolm felt a chill all over his body, including his heart.
“Hmm.”
Skylar glanced at Adam and nodded.
Only then did Adam straighten up and ask, somewhat cautiously, “Mr. Stone, Malcolm is a friend of my
father’s. I’m wondering if you could spare his son’s life for my family’s sake?”
Adam had rushed here after receiving a call from Homer.
He had intended to take Malcolm and Harper to Skylar to confess their sins and seek mercy in person.
He never imagined that even after rushing over, he would still be a step too late.
Of course, he never anticipated that Skylar would visit the Fox family’s home to deal with Harper in
person.
He was now relying on the namesake of the Currey family to save Harper’s life.
Skylar sneered when he heard his words. “You want me to spare Harper?” he asked, raising his
eyebrows.
“He arranged for a large truck to cause an accident that would kill my daughter and me.”
“Will the Currey family come to bear this debt for him?”
Skylar and the Currey family were not friends.
He only ever had a meal with Adam in his hometown at Atlas County the last time, and it was also
because Naomi was there.
Skylar decided not to be courteous to Adam after witnessing him speaking to him without regard.
Adam’s expression changed noticeably in response to Skylar’s words, and he quickly lowered his head
and uttered, “Mr. Stone, I apologize. I was the one who spoke out of turn.”
However, an elderly man in a suit standing behind Adam snorted coldly and said, “All is well that ends
well. Don’t go too far with this!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mr. Adam addressed you respectfully as Mr. Stone because he is humble. Do you truly believe you are
above all?”
“Stuart! Don’t be disrespectful to Mr. Stone!”
Adam quickly intervened to stop him.
However, the old man in the suit proudly waved his hand and said, “Don’t be concerned, Mr. Adam. I
can easily deal with an immature boy!”
“Whatever the problem is, I’ll handle it myself!”
Before Adam could react, he yelled coldly at Skylar, “Boy, I’ll give you two minutes to get you and your
people out of the Fox family’s home.”
“Otherwise, when I act, you’ll suffer terrible repercussions, I assure you!”
“Oh?”
“It’s so pathetic that you still don’t know your place at your age,” Skylar sneered.
“What did you say?”
The old man in the suit was enraged. Just as he was about to assume a fighting stance, Skylar spat,
“Kneel!”
