Chapter 420 Asserting Dominance

Regardless of Christopher’s willingness, they had to escort him onto the plane, possibly even under duress. They just needed to hint at Jonathan’s stance and mention that Florence would continue to have him watched, likely scaring Christopher into hurrying back to Riverdon overnight.

Christopher, oblivious to the bodyguard’s thoughts and hearing the formal response, held back his frustration and asked through gritted teeth, “How much longer until we arrive?”

His patience was wearing thin, not just from physical discomfort but also from feeling undervalued. A mere bodyguard was not taking him seriously!

Had it been any other day, he wouldn’t have tolerated this, but having just angered his older brother and been rescued from Florence’s clutches, he dared not act rashly.

The bodyguard replied, “About half an hour.”

Christopher’s face darkened with anger.

After a glance, the bodyguard decided, “Mr. Lawson instructed us to escort you home personally.”
