Chapter 369: Childhood Sweethearts, Mutual Affection
Is Sylvan Cheney targeting Joe for a reckoning? How did this kid upset his older brother?
Of all people to provoke, why stir up trouble with Sylvan Cheney?
Cheney is someone who appears benign on the surface.
But his heart is ruthlessly cold.
“Sylvan, has Joe upset you recently? I’ll discipline him for you. You always stand up for him, if he’s causing you trouble, I’ll be the first one not to let him off the hook.” Kaisan Heath expressed his position first.
“I am a bit upset.” Sylvan Cheney squints his eyes.
In his gaze, a deep and profound substance seemed to be hidden.
Even though he was all smiles, a grand oppressive force had already begun to fill the air.
“That kid, he doesn’t understand anything!” Kaisan Heath voiced his discontent as if he was disappointed over poorly performing iron, “I blame myself for spoiling him. Sylvan, how did he upset you? I’ll teach him a lesson when I get home!”
Kaisan Heath slapped the table, filled with righteous indignation!
He guessed that Joe Heath had probably crossed Sylvan Cheney’s bottom line.
Otherwise, Sylvan Cheney wouldn’t go to such lengths.
Moreover, if it weren’t for the sake of old friendships, Sylvan Cheney probably wouldn’t have notified him and would have directly dealt with Joe Heath himself.
Thinking about this, a chill ran down his spine.
“It’s not a big deal, I just think that Joe needs to be put under someone’s control.” Sylvan Cheney smirks.
“I’ve always thought so, but that kid is like a wild horse, refusing control, he doesn’t listen to me.”
“Whether he listens or not depends on whether your methods are right.” Sylvan Cheney flicked some ash off, “If you were to put a gun to his head, do you think he would dare to disobey? Hmm?”
Kaisan Heath was taken aback.
A hint of coldness flashed through his eyes, shattering his gaze.
Sylvan Cheney, he was much more ruthless than himself.
“Uncle Heath, I heard that Melody Xylas is back in town?” Sylvan Cheney said, casting him a glance.
“Yes, Melody just returned to the country.” Kaisan Heath responds.
“Isn’t that good then? If I remember correctly, Joe and Melody were on good terms as kids, they’ve known each other since they were little, it was mutual affection, wasn’t it?”
Sylvan Cheney’s gaze landed on Kaisan Heath’s face, not missing the slightest of his expressions.
The atmosphere suddenly grew oppressive.
Kaisan Heath sighed: “I can’t decide for Joe, marriage is a matter of two people after all, and Joe isn’t really fond of Melody…Although they grew up together, they’ve drifted apart in their adulthood.”
“Didn’t I say, there’s no such thing as can or cannot do, it depends on your methods.”
“This… I can hardly be so cruel to my own blood, Sylvan. I can’t force Joe.”
Kaisan Heath looked troubled.
He took a sip of tea, suppressing the anger rising in his heart.
Every word Sylvan Cheney said carried oppression.
And he, he had no room to fight back!
“Uncle Heath, I heard that Star Sharp has invested a large sum in a movie that is about to be released…”
“Sylvan, I will reconsider when I get home!” Kaisan hastily said.
He glanced at Sylvan Cheney, the man’s face already showed displeasure.
Yes, Sylvan Cheney was unhappy.
If he provoked him, he had the means to make the film fail, and to even make Star Sharp unable to function.
Kaisan Heath, understanding his age, knew he couldn’t compete with Sylvan Cheney.
“I’ve always wanted to celebrate Joe’s wedding.” Sylvan Cheney withdrew his cold gaze.
Just like that, it seemed as if nothing had happened.
But Kaisan Heath knew all too well, that he had already lost the battle just now.
“I heard that Melody has always liked Joe. Don’t let Joe fail a girl who holds such feelings for him.” Sylvan Cheney smiles..
