Chapter 249 Billionaire Club (1/2)
Destroying Fannie's restaurant wasn't Gavin's plan. If it was, why would he cause so much trouble to manage one of his own?
”Since you are here now, let's talk this over.” Gavin sighed and sat down on a chair. ”Hiram, could you please imagine yourself in my shoes for just one second?”
Gavin asked, with a controlled tone in his voice.
Hiram narrowed his intensely dark eyes and looked down at the collection of vintage lighters in the glass cabinet. ”Dad, we know that even if the Ruan family was connected to Aunt Landy's death, Simpson already passed away.

”Don't you worry about it. She's gone back to XH village. Besides, I won't do anything to hurt her until I have hard evidence.” Gavin promised.
Hiram cast a glance in Gavin's direction and remained completely silent. He flicked the ash from his cigarette and walked out of his study.
As he closed the door behind him, he saw that Rachel was waiting for him in the hallway.
Rachel took his hand, as they walked back to their room. She closed the door behind her and asked,”How was it? What did he say?”
When she learned that the restaurant was smashed, she couldn't control her rage and had to find a way to control herself. She didn't even feel as though she was able to confront Gavin at all.
”He won't do anything now. It wasn't his plan to destroy the restaurant. It was his men who acted for him without his c
