Chapter 287 Too Late for Regrets 

“Benny! Why did you hit me? I wanted you to hit Caspian!” Kelsie cried out in disbelief as she clutched her aching cheek. 

Bernard’s slap hurt more than Caspian’s. Kelsie’s face was all swollen. 

“You b*tch! Who else should I be slapping, huh? You nearly got me in so much trouble!” Bernard roared at Kelsie. 

His outburst left Kelsie dumbfounded. 

All along, Bernard had doted on her and did everything she asked of him. What was up with him today? Why did he hit her? She could not understand what was happening. 

“Since you laid your hand on me, Bernard, don’t even think about seeing me again!” Kelsie declared in fury. 

Bernard ignored Kelsie, Instead, he fell onto his knees in front of Caspian and Willow. 

“It’s all my fault, Mr. Lynch. If I’d known that this b*tch had offended you, I would’ve taught her a lesson from the start!” Bernard said fearfully.

He was overwhelmed with regret. If he knew that Kelsie had offended Caspian, he would’ve turned a blind eye to the whole thing 

Lincoln had already warned Bernard not to antagonize Casplan or Willow. Even though he did not know their real identities, he knew that he could not afford to offend people who even 

Lincoln feared. 

Bernard sorely wanted to teach Kelsie a lesson. If it had not been for her, he would not have

He vaguely recalled seeing Bernard before during a meeting with Lincoln, but he did not remember much from that encounter. 

But after noting Bernard’s fear, he knew that Bernard was aware of his identity. 

“Please forgive me just this once, Mr. Lynch. I’d never dare to lay a finger on you!” Bernard pleaded. 

His pathetic display rendered Kelsie speechless. 

She wanted Bernard to stand up for her, but instead, he was a loser who even feared a matrilocal son–in–law!

“Bernard, you loser! You’re always bragging about how you work with Mr. Zott and how can do anything you want in Southlake City. Yet, now that I’m asking you for help, you’re being such a coward!

“If I’d known how much of a coward you were, I wouldn’t have gotten involved with you, you useless trash!” Kelsie shrieked. 

“Shut up, you b*tch!” Bernard snarled back at her. 

He could not believe that Kelsie was still saying such ridiculous things at a time like this. Sooner or later, she would be the death of him! 

Bernard’s reaction terrified Kelsie. He had never treated her this way before. 

Meanwhile, Bernard continued to lameel in front of Caspian without saying anything. His back was soaked through. 

Upon seeing this, Fritz got a bad feeling. Could it be that Caspian did come from a powerful background? 

Was Willow truly the CEO of Southlake Corporation? 

Shaking his head, Fritz tossed that possibility out the window. 

Willow could not possibly be the CEO of Southlake Corporation, and Caspian was certainly not the Diatoranian God of War. 

Why would the Diatoranian God of War end up being a matrilocal son–in–law in Southlake City? That made no sense. 

Fritz kept trying to convince himself, but he still felt a little fearful. 

“Are you still going to stop us from leaving, Fritz?” Caspian asked with a smile. 

“Stop trying to scare us! You and Willow must’ve lied about your identities! Who knows? Maybe you hired this Bernard guy to put on an act for us,” Fritz scoffed derisively. 

Fritz, who was still on his knees, was dumbfounded. 

Who was this young man? What gave him the gall to mock Caspian and Willow? 

Even Lincoln would not dare to do such a thing. 

Bernard felt a flash of pity for Fritz. He was going to pay for this. 

Caspian smirked. Soon, Fritz would be regretting everything he had done. 

Just then, the door flew open with a bang again, and a middle–aged man dressed in a suit came

“You’re here, Uncle Geoffrey!” Fritz cried out excitedly.

“You sent me a message saying that someone’s pretending to be the CEO of Southlake Corporation. Well, who is it? Does the fool have a death wish? Call the authorities and get whoever it is arrested!” Geoffrey said to Fritz. 

Southlake Corporation was now the largest company in the Two Lakes area. 

Geoffrey was in charge of Southlake Corporation’s branch office, and Willow, the CEO, had helped him numerous times. 

He genuinely respected her, so naturally, he had to come and see for himself who was the one who had the audacity to assume Willow’s identity. 

“It’s the two of them over there! They’re shameless!” Fritz pointed at Caspian and Willow as he declared smugly. 

“What a ridiculous…” Geoffrey began saying as he looked in the direction where Fritz was pointing. 

But when he saw Caspian and Willow, his sentence came to an abrupt stop. He dared not continue speaking. 

Geoffrey’s expression stiffened as he trembled in fear. 

“That’s them, Uncle Geoffrey! That woman, Willow, had the nerve to call herself the CEO of Southlake Corporation. And Caspian’s even worse! 

“He said he’s the Diatoranian God of War! You need to teach them a good lesson. Tell them who’s the real CEO of Southlake Corporation!” Fritz bellowed. 

Alas, the moment he finished speaking, Geoffrey fell on his knees.  Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Why are you kneeling in front of them? Also, why are you calling Willow Ms. Ste… 

Fritz’s voice trailed off. Freezing in place, he stared at Willow and Caspian in shock. 

Geoffrey raised his hand and gave Fritz a crisp, resounding slap. 

“You fool! Hurry up and apologize to the CEO, Ms. Stewart!” Geoffrey fumed. 

His words struck Fritz like a bolt of lightning. 

He knew Geoffrey would not be lying about this. That meant Willow was indeed the CEO of Southlake Corporation!

Legs buckling, Fritz fell to his knees. 

His heart sank as he realized he had offended someone incredibly powerful. 

Regardless of who Caspian was, Willow’s identity as the CEO of Southlake Corporation alone. was enough to scare him. 

Recently, Southlake Corporation had been expanding as they had bought over many other companies. They were irrefutably the top conglomerate in the Two Lakes area. No other company in the region could compete against them. 

Never would Fritz have expected Willow to be the CEO of such a company. 

He had just returned to the country not too long ago and knew nothing of the situation in Southlake City. If he had known this would happen, he would have done his research first. Had he done so, he would not have ignorantly offended Willow and Caspian!
