Chapter 166: Confrontation Between Zora's And Emerson's

Ch-165

"What are you doing with Emerson's?" Valene asked. 

"Even though we aren't up to the level of Emerson's group. I will try to fight for my daughter even if I have to go bankrupt. She isn't a toy for that bastard to play with. I will walk around the globe if needed to find a good groom for her." he said. 

"I will help you," Valene said. 

"No, Thanks. I have taken the blow once. Taking it twice doesn't matter to me. But you are different. And in fact, this is something I have to deal with as a father, not you," Aiden said as he got up from his seat. 

"Uncle, it's not th…." Valene wanted to say something but was cut off by Eric, who intruded in the middle, looking all serious and worried. 

"Sir, Mr. Emerson, and Ms. Emerson are here to meet you," Eric said. 

Valene and Aiden furrowed their brows. 

"Tell them we are busy. I need to attend an emergency board meeting," Aiden said. 

"Sir, but they aren't listening," Eric said. 

"That doesn't concern me. They can wait all along. I don't care," Aiden said and started climbing. 

"Sir, they are trying to break in. They seemed tense about something," Eric informed. 

"I don't have time. If you see them again. Tell them, I decided to cancel the marriage. And will be canceling projects we are doing with them too," he said. 

Eric felt like a person who would die in the battle between the villain and a hero. He wanted to go and jump from the highest building in the world and die. If he goes outside the Regan would kill him with his stare. And the little girl beside, she wore a police uniform and said if he didn't let them in, she would arrest him. 

He was stuck between these people. He wondered why all of the people Eleanor only picked Cedric to marry him. 

Eric cried with his imaginary tears. He wished even his mortal enemy shouldn't go through this. 

Sighing at his sad fate, he did a small prayer to god about his well-being as he walked ahead. But to his horror, the Emerson's broke into their house without any invitation. 

"Aiden!" Regan almost shouted. One could say he was trying to control himself and his anger. 

"Mr. Emerson, please see yourself out. We are not accepting any guests, especially people with the surname Emerson," Aiden said bluntly. 

"Why did you send my child to jail?" Valene demanded. 

"I didn't send. But my daughter did. But… after knowing the reason… I will make sure that he will be staying behind the bars as much as possible!" Aiden said as he raised his voice higher. 

"What do you mean? They both are going to get married! He shouldn't be inside the jail. Ask Eleanor to take the complaint back and get him out!" Regan said.

"I will never do that," Aiden shot back. 

"I can make your company go bankrupt," Regan said. 

"I don't care. I would rather live in poverty than bury my daughter's self-respect and dignity!" Aiden said, making Regan's brows jump. 

"What do you mean?" Regan asked, feeling confused. Katherine told him that Eleanor pushed him into jail for no reason listening to others' words. In a fit of rage, he stormed towards Zora's mansion. 

Katherine was watching from sideways from the moment she entered Zora's mansion. She wasn't here to plead for her brother but to see if Eleanor was fine or not. She knew her brother did something wrong. But if she doesn't initiate her father, he wouldn't come here. 

"Don't act as if you know nothing. You know about Cedric raping my daughter. Just to hide the fact, and make my daughter feel guilty towards him, you punished him by sending him overseas. Do you think I can't understand that?

"And even now, he is cheating on my daughter with some bitch. Just because she confronted him, he sent his men after her to hurt her. And didn't he say he just wanted to do time pass with my daughter? Now the deal is done and the job done. Please leave. As for him leaving the jail… it doesn't happen. I will fight till my wits end!" Aiden said as he fumed like a bull. Aiden can make out a theory on what happened between Cedric and Regan. He knew Regan too well. Even if he was the one who made a mistake, he would punish himself. And the sudden journey to the Alvonia means it was the only punishment. And he was glad that… his daughter got out of a jerk's clutches soon. If this happened after they got married, then Eleanor would have to suffer a lot. But… as a father his heart was aching for his daughter. This wasn't the life his daughter deserves. She deserves better. A better man, better life, and everything better. Most importantly she deserves happiness. And he would give them everything she wants. For that, he would do anything just to provide for her needs. 

He just wanted to go in front of Cedric and shoot him with his gun. But Eleanor wouldn't appreciate that. 

Regan doesn't know this thing has happened. He never thought Cedric would do that to Eleanor. Regan thought Cedric loved Eleanor deep. But… this thing… shocked him. 

He wanted to shout and say that Aiden was lying but he couldn't say that because he knew deep down it was true. And Katherine's silence says everything. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and calmed his nerves. 

"Where is Eleanor?" Regan asked. 

"Alive," came the answer from Valene. He spoke for the first time from the moment the Emerson's came. Aiden thought Valene wouldn't speak for them. But he never expected Valene to talk for his daughter. After all, he has a company full of employees and they are depending on their company for the sake of their families. But now he spoke, he now understood Valene was always on his side. A smile formed on his lips. It is such a pity, he wasn't or won't be his son-in-law. But forget it, he got him as his son. 

"It doesn't involve you," Katherine spoke up. 

"It does. She takes me as her brother. Also… you are a woman too. If something like this happens to you, will you let that man leave?" Valene question, Katherine shut her mouth. 

"Since, you asked about Eleanor. I will answer," Valene said. 

"They don't deserve to know," Aiden said. 

"Indeed, but they should feel guilty for her current situation, uncle," Valene said. 

"She is unconscious now! No one knows when she will wake up. She fell unconscious while crying her guts out! Happy! Now you know, leave before she wakes and remembers her heartbreak again by seeing you all!" Valene said as he looked at Regan and Katherine. He just wanted to go and beat Cedric to the point of his death. 

Was this love? 

Was this the way how a man should treat his love of life? 

If that's the case, he would rather prefer Eleanor never falls in love with someone like Cedric or anyone. He wanted her to live a life full of happiness and a life with no pain. But with Cedric, her life seemed to go down a different path. She was always crying being with him. 

She doesn't deserve this. Eleanor deserves every best thing in the world. Martin was right, Eleanor always deserves the best. And he would make sure she gets the best. 

"I just want to see her for once. We won't say anything to her but will see from far," Katherine said. 

"Why? To see if we are lying or saying the truth? Or to laugh at her current condition? Or to see the masterpiece made by your son? Huh? Go find the woman he loves. And get her married to him," Valene said. 

Regan and Katherine knew this wasn't the right time for them to meet or see Eleanor. Everything would go fine after some time. All they have to do is wait right now. 

Katherine sighed and held his father's wrist. Regan knew what his daughter means. 

"I apologize on my son's behalf," Regan said. 

Aiden said nothing and looked firm. "Will you forgive me?" Regan continued when he got no answer. 

"The person who should apologize is Cedric and the person who should receive the apology is my daughter. As for me, I am sad because I didn't judge your son perfectly which gave me an opportunity to hurt her further. 

"And as for you… you are not at fault for this thing. Your son is at fault. And even you are at fault. Do you know where you are at fault?" Aiden asked. 

Regan could guess what would be going to be his answers. 

"You failed to raise him well," Aiden said and left to his room followed by Valene leaving Regan and Katherine all alone. 

Regan lowered his head in shame when he heard Aiden's words.. He was right.
