chapter2247

After ending the call, Cecilia told Wren what had really happened.

But Wren still didn't agree with what Jonathan had done.

"Even if Felix was wrong, he was picking on someone else, not Jon. If something like that happens again, just have Jon stand to the side and watch. Don't let him meddle in other people's business."

That landed hard enough to make anyone's temper rise.

Cecilia shot back, "Dad, are you saying that when Jon grows up, if he sees someone doing something wrong, he should just look away and pretend he didn't see it?"

Wren choked on his words.

Cecilia went on, "I don't think Jon did anything wrong. He was just wrong in how he handled it this time. He shouldn't have kicked someone first, and I've already told him that."

Once she finished, she didn't wait for Wren to answer. She used work as an excuse and hung up on him again.

Wren stood in the doorway, and the weight on his face deepened.

How had every last one of them gotten to the point where they wouldn't listen to him anymore and insisted on making enemies?

"Well. So you didn't dare call your son, and called your daughter-in-law instead? What, because you think Ceci is easy to push around?" Elena's voice came from behind him.

She hadn't gone far at all. She'd stayed by the entryway and heard Wren's call to Cecilia.

Wren looked at her as she mocked him, pressed his lips together, and had nothing ready to throw back.

"Enough with the digs. About Mrs. Chandler's matter can you help or not?"

"If I help you, what exactly do I get out of it?" Elena asked.

"We're family. What benefit do you need?" Wren said on instinct.

"Who the hell is family with you? Have some shame."

After tossing that back at him, Elena clicked away in her heels and went to sit in the living room.

Seeing how it was going, Wren softened his tone. "Just help me this once. If my father knows down below, he'll thank you too."

Elena picked up a glass of warm water and took a sip.

"Forget it. Your father was always biased. He never treated me like one of the Rainsworths in the first place. There's no way I'm helping you, and I'm definitely not helping Robert Who knows what he really wants with Mr. Chandler's piece of land?" Cóntent

Wren could see she had no intention of helping him, and he couldn't keep begging after that.

"Fine. If you won't help me, I'll go find Mr. Chandler myself. I refuse to believe he won't give me even that much respect."

After saying that, Wren really did go to find Mr. Chandler on his own.

He walked out and had the driver take him straight to the Chandler Group.

He had assumed he'd get to see Mr. Chandler without any trouble.

Instead, security stopped him outside the front gate.

"I'm Mr. Chandler's friend, Wren!" Wren said to the guard.

"Sorry," the guard said, looking at him with a cold face. "Mr. Chandler already said he isn't seeing you."

"Did you even tell him who I am? I'm the father of the president of Rainsworth Group!" Wren had no choice but to bring up Nathaniel.

"So what?" the guard said, impatience showing plain enough. "Do you not understand people when they talk? Mr. Chandler just doesn't want to see you. Got

it?"

It had been said that directly. There was nothing left for Wren to misunderstand.

If he couldn't see Mr. Chandler, then naturally he couldn't talk about the Chandler family's land.

With no other option, he told Robert.

He arranged to meet Robert.

"What, even your wife wouldn't help?" Robert said, a little surprised. "The two of you were married for decades, weren't you?"

"She's like a completely different person now," Wren said, shaking his head. "So different I don't even recognize her anymore."

Robert let out a sigh.

On the surface, it looked like he was

regretting what had happened between the husband and wife. In truth what weighed on him was that

his younger brother hadn't gotten

that piece of land.

"Sigh. Your wife still cares about Dad's property. How about this? I'll give her everything Dad left me while he was alive I only want Dad to have a proper place to rest, and for you and your wife to get back together," Robert said.
