Watching her not even bother to hide her dislike for him, Mr. Drexler’s expression paused for a moment, and he asked somewhat distractedly.

"Aren’t you afraid of me?"

He still remembered... when Amber first married him, everyone in the Drexler Family either feared him or respected him, except for her, who tirelessly expressed her dislike for him every day, hoping he would divorce her and let her go.

He was very angry at the time, so he committed many mistakes, which later he couldn’t recover from even after many years... 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Thinking of this, a touch of sadness suddenly appeared on the old man’s face.

...

Hearing Mr. Drexler’s words, Summer Shawcross merely chuckled.

"Being afraid of you, will you let our marriage go?"

She was never one to confront head-on; she understood when to yield, but... at the thought of what this old man had done to Noah Drexler, she wished she could fight him immediately, so even trying to disguise her dislike was hard to achieve!

Because... she truly hated this damn old man!

If it weren’t for him, Noah Drexler wouldn’t have gone through so many adverse events, wouldn’t have suffered so much pain.

Thinking of this, a hint of disgust and anger appeared on Summer’s face again.

Watching her extremely angry demeanor, Mr. Drexler couldn’t help but smile, then continued to speak.

"The way you’re talking, I’m not an unreasonable old man."

"Aren’t you feeling guilty saying that?" Summer gazed at him with full contempt, although angry in her heart, she couldn’t help but retort.

"Since you say you’re not unreasonable, then let us leave right now!"

"You all?" Mr. Drexler looked puzzled, but then he realized something and continued.

"Noah is free to come and go from the Drexler Family, I haven’t restricted his personal freedom!"

Summer bit her lip, not believing Mr. Drexler’s words at all!

If he hadn’t imposed restrictions, he must have used something to threaten Noah Drexler, which is why he stays in this place he inherently loathes.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Sean Morgan seized the opportunity and directly requested.

"Sir, then... let me first take the madam away."

The boss doesn’t want the madam to stay here; the entire Drexler Family’s business is very complex, involving too many unknown matters.

As Sean spoke, he proceeded to lead Summer Shawcross away.

Suddenly, Mr. Drexler lifted his cane and blocked their path.

"Today is supposedly my first meeting with my daughter-in-law, how can I just let her leave like this." Mr. Drexler’s expression returned to seriousness, he glanced at Summer Shawcross and then continued, his words carrying hidden meaning.

"Besides... whether she leaves here or not doesn’t make much difference, does it?" Saying this, Mr. Drexler gave a glance at Sean Morgan.

Sean’s face changed immediately.

Meanwhile, Summer Shawcross didn’t understand the meaning behind Mr. Drexler’s words, looking a bit puzzled.

What does it mean, whether she leaves here or not doesn’t make much difference?

Is Mr. Drexler implying that even if she leaves, it’s futile?

"Since you’re here, why not stay for a while, our family finally gets a chance to gather." Mr. Drexler put down his cane and said earnestly.

Listening to Mr. Drexler’s hypocritical words, Summer Shawcross just felt nauseous.

Seems like he’s not planning to let her leave today?
