Chapter 570 Fix

In the city penitentiary,

At ten in the morning, Gianna was surprised when she got to know there was somebody to visit her. She had asked Liam to focus on his life and not to waste time visiting her. But she couldn't help hoping to see Liam.

Her bright, anticipating gaze fell on the man she never in dreams thought would visit her. However, looking at the prideful man looking haggard and lost, Gianna took a seat in front of Casper.

She couldn't believe Casper, who looked like a strong egoistic man till a few days ago, was reduced to the state of unwell. Although she didn't completely know what was happening outside, she had basic knowledge from the newspaper.

Nothing was worse to Casper than Linus Collins becoming the CEO of the company.

If Alvin had become the CEO, Casper would have been smug about it, after all, Alvin was a Matthews and an exceptional businessman. But Alvin hit Casper where it should have hurt.

Casper had ridiculed the Collins family. He had asked the security to throw Elder Collins and Bernard out of the mansion. Now Casper has to bear Linus sitting on the throne. Alvin made sure Casper fell in his own eyes.

Gianna wasn't going to gloat on Casper's misfortune. She was over Casper's cheating. She didn't care about Alvin, and Janet anymore. She just wants Liam to do good in his life.

Although she wished Liam could have the power and wealth to lead a trouble-free life, she learned the importance of happiness over everything else.

Curious about Casper's visit, she broke the long silence, "Why are you here?" She softly asked. She truly hoped he wasn't there to disappoint her again.

Frankly, Casper hadn't noticed his wife all his life. They fought, argued, and ignored each other but never looked at each other for even ten seconds. Probably Gianna did look up to him when they got married, she had hopes till he cheated on her.

Thus it was the first time he got a good look at his wife who has been married to him kids, and managing the PR.

He asked his secretary to continue the plan without him and Gianna. Thus here he for more than three decades.

There was no anger or displeasure on her face. Neither for him nor for the life she was living. Her clear face, her hair tied in a low ponytail, and wearing a clean set of clothes... She looked peaceful and beautiful to his eyes.

Casper felt a lump in his throat hearing her question. When he woke up, his mobile beeped with a notification of her birthday. The day they were supposed to be visiting an orphanage, making a huge donation, taking pictures when Gianna plays with the kids, and managing the PR.

He asked his secretary to continue the plan without him and Gianna. Thus here he was, just following what his mind said. He bluntly responded, "It's your birthday."

Gianna blinked in surprise. She had forgotten about it. She used to celebrate her birthday before her marriage. It turned into a PR event after her marriage and she used to hope for him to wish her before he cheated on her.

Not just her birthday, everything turns into a business in the Matthews family, losing the actual gist of the special days. She wasn't like that earlier. Casper made her into him. nOvE)lb-1n

She weakly smiled, "Now I understand why Liam and Alvin fell in love with simple women." When they were kids, they wanted to celebrate their special days, instead of attending some boring event. Gianna was glad they could live their lives with their spouses, unlike making their days into public events.

Casper didn't understand what Gianna meant. He just knew the woman in front of him wasn't the same one who wanted to ruin Alvin's happiness and was greedy for Liam to get everything.

Whereas he voiced what he learned in the past few weeks, "Nothing would have gone wrong if you were there." Gianna had managed the dysfunctional family and kept Liam close to them. Now nobody was with anybody.

Gianna frowned at those words. She didn't feel happy to hear what Casper said. Maybe she would have forced Liam to take care of the company and be supportive of Casper when Alvin schemed against the company. However, Casper had a huge misunderstanding. She was never with Casper.

She just wanted Liam to get what belonged to the Matthews. Nothing more, nothing less. Now that she got over with her obsession, she didn't bother clearing up his misunderstanding.

Casper breathed out loudly and stated, "I will bring you out." He meant his words. He wanted to get her out as soon as possible.

Nonetheless, Gianna read the words he didn't utter. She shook her head in Casper took a pause and promptly nodded in response. He was confident to remove Linus and handle the company once Liam returned.

resignation. Casper was selfish. Yet she questioned for a bit of clarification, "Do you want to bring me out to fix everything?"

Casper took a pause and promptly nodded in response. He was confident to remove Linus and handle the company once Liam returned.

Gianna felt her eyes sting. She dried the tears in her eyes taking a shaky breath. Every time Casper disappointed her. Every single time.

Even if not possible, she would have been happy to hear if he thought about her or Liam other than the company, and the Matthews family's reputation.

She didn't berate him. Instead, "Don't." She refused his offer, "Don't get me out of here. I don't have the energy to fix anything."

Casper: "..."

He stood up when Gianna stood up from her chair and turned to leave. Nobody likes to stay in prison. He couldn't understand why Gianna didn't want to come out, "Why?" He asked, more like he requested her to respond to him.

Gianna paused at his words. It wasn't like she liked to stay in the prison. She didn't want to become his puppet if he managed to release her.

She turned around to face him. A tear rolled down her cheek when she recalled everything, "Casper Matthews, it's too late to fix anything." Her voice turned very low and emotional.

Casper tried to retort but Gianna continued, "I'm tired of pretending to be your wife. My mindless hatred for Alvin isn't the same as your selfishness to restrain Alvin. I will not be your tool to control Liam."

Wiping off her tears, Gianna looked away from Casper to compose. Taking a shaky breath, she determinedly looked back at Casper.

"Nothing can go back to normal, Casper Matthews. If you want to fix something, change yourself. Be a good father."

Then she turned around and left without looking back. She didn't get an ounce of care from Casper. Liam had become a tool and Alvin a spare. Benjamin was struggling with the case and Cordelia's act of patient in hospital continued. Yet, Casper still thought of himself and the company.

Other than being a good businessman, Casper had failed in everything. He couldn't be a loving husband, a doting father, a dependable brother, or a supportive son.

She wondered how Casper might end up if he kept trying to go against Alvin.

....

After leaving the penitentiary, Casper had a lot on his mind. He couldn't accept there was no way to fix anything, however, Gianna and her words were deeply imprinted on his mind and repeated in a loop.

Thus he ended up instructing his driver to go to Skylark when they were passing by the company building. There he met the little man who brought him upstairs.

Casper stepped out of the elevator behind Anya and Zane and noticed Zane beam ear to ear at the sight of Alvin who paused while instructing something to an employee.

The little man suddenly sprinted and bounced in front of Alvin, silently asking him to carry.

Casper froze when he witnessed Zane whispering something in Alvin's ear that brought a captivating smirk to Alvin's face. Then Alvin and Zane turned to Anya while they bumped their fists.

It was an endearing sight of a father and son.

A father and son!?

'Be a good father.'
