The Man’s Decree

Chapter 285 Sealing His Doom

Yoel paled and babbled, “I’m not lying, Mr. Lewis! I swear to God I’m telling the truth! I really couldn’t reach my son!”

Tommy released Yoel, much to the latter’s relief. Yoel asked cautiously, “Mr. Chance, Mr. Lewis, what has my foolish son done to offend you both this time?”

Jared and Josephine’s relationship was public news at this point, and Leyton’s actions were hardly that of a clueless man. The Sullivans were the wealthiest family in Horington, and they maintained a tense but civil relationship with the Scotts.
