Chapter 574 Karen let out a scream!
Karen and Kyle were both taken aback.
Karen forced a smile and said, "Ryder, what do you mean by that?"
If this had been before, and Ryder dared to talk to her like that, she would have probably pulled all the hair off his head!
But ever since Ryder's sister Ava had a car accident, things had changed.
Whatever Karen did, nothing went smoothly, while Ryder had everything going his way.
Ryder didn't want to deal with Karen and said directly, "Is it hard to understand? Back when you hurt Sarah in Houston, I told you that Sarah would have nothing to do with you anymore! As for what you mentioned, sorry, I never discuss work at home!"
With that, Ryder walked past Karen and headed inside.
Seeing this, Karen suddenly shouted, "Ryder, stop right there!"
Ryder ignored her and kept walking.
Karen started to panic.
"Ryder, do you really think I was wrong? As a mother wanting her daughter to have a good life, what did I do wrong?"
"You say I hurt Sarah, but look at yourself, Ryder! How many days have you been in New York City? Yesterday, Kyle said you were involved with another influencer, and today you came back holding Barbara! Isn't what you're doing hurting Sarah?"
"Sarah gave up her own mother and brother just to be with you! She devoted herself to you, and yet you're out there cheating on her. That's the biggest hurt to her!"
All of it was accusations against Ryder.
She could be trampled by the Moore family, but she was unwilling to humble herself in front of Ryder.
However, Kyle tugged at Karen's sleeve. "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Karen instantly lost her momentum.
Kyle lowered his voice and continued to remind Karen, "What did we say last night? Apologize quickly! Kneel and apologize!"
What?
Karen looked at her son Kyle in disbelief.
Tears welled up instantly.
Alright, this is the good son she gave birth to!
"Mom, it's just kneeling; it won't kill you!" Kyle emphasized again.
Karen smiled bitterly and nodded.
The next second, she knelt heavily in Ryder's direction.
Karen's eyes were red and fierce. "Ryder, I'm sorry! It was my fault!"
As she spoke, she slapped herself hard on the face.
Three times in a row, very loudly.
She really was wrong.
Having a son was worse than having a daughter. She had placed all her bets on Kyle, but Kyle, for his own future, actually asked his own mother to kneel and apologize to someone else!
Regarding Karen's actions, Ryder stopped in his tracks, slightly shocked.
Rex and Barbara both looked at the scene in front of them with astonished eyes.
Kyle had a look of satisfaction and relief. He had made his own mother Karen kneel and apologize, and she even added the act of slapping herself. Not bad!
Karen slapped herself for two reasons: one, she hated herself for giving birth to such a "good son" as Kyle.
Secondly, the Moore family had also warned her last night that if she couldn't get Ryder's forgiveness, they would kick her out of the Moore family and leave her to wander the streets.
"I was a bit harsh just now, please understand a mother's heart! I was just complaining a bit for Sarah!"
Karen continued with a sobbing voice, "Ryder, I'm really begging you! For the sake of me carrying Sarah for ten months, raising her to become one of the top beauties in Houston, and marrying her to you, please help Kyle!"
"Indeed." Ryder nodded.
If it weren't for the fact that Karen was Sarah's mother, Karen would have been dead a hundred times over for what she had done to Sarah!
Hearing this, Kyle's eyes lit up. "So Ryder, are you agreeing to the cooperation?"
"Cooperation?" Ryder asked back.
"It's about the horror-themed park on the Rigal Sports Complex land. Our Summit Innovations Group can provide all kinds of building materials at a low price! If possible, we can also provide the necessary manpower. After all, Summit Innovations Group started with civil engineering and has a large number of excellent architectural design talents!"
"I said, work is discussed at the office!" Ryder replied indifferently.
"But Ryder, you should know my father-in-law Gabriel, right? The chairman of Summit Innovations Group! He hopes that he and Maple Group can cooperate more closely."
"Got it." Ryder nodded and didn't continue.
Seeing Ryder's indifferent look, Kyle frowned, "Ryder, at least give me an answer!"
"No, we're not that close."
Ryder continued, "Alright, if there's nothing else, you should leave! As for the cooperation, if Gabriel sends someone else to talk to me, I might consider it!"
With that, he turned and walked inside.
"Ryder, my mom has already knelt down to beg you, what more do you want? Is targeting me fun for you?"
If Summit Innovations Group sent someone else to discuss the cooperation, it would have nothing to do with Kyle.
How would he gain the Moore family's attention then?
How would he inherit the Moore family business?
How would he dominate New York City?
However, the response to Kyle was the sound of a door closing.
Ryder, Rex, and Barbara all went inside.
Kyle and Karen were left outside, one standing and one kneeling.
Karen got up from the ground and was about to rush forward to kick the door.
She had already lowered herself so much, and Ryder was still such a jerk!
Kyle quickly got up and pulled Karen back. "Mom, what are you doing?"
Karen was agitated. "Kyle, don't worry, even if I die here today, I will make Ryder agree to the cooperation project with you."
"I've lived most of my life already, and since I was wrong from the start, I'll just be wrong to the end! At least before I die, I can do something for you, and I hope you will live a happy life. That way, I will be satisfied!"
After saying that, she tried to break free from Kyle's grip on her arm.
Life had no hope, and her son Kyle didn't care about her, so she might as well die!
Kyle was shocked by Karen's determination.
He held onto Karen's arm tightly, and quickly explained, "No, Mom! Ryder already hinted that he would consider cooperating with Summit Innovations Group. Even if they send someone else, that person will definitely be Gabriel! It all depends on how I speak in front of them then! After all, I was the one who made the connection!"
Karen blinked her big eyes. "Really?"
Kyle nodded. "Really, so Mom, you have to endure it, whether it's in the Moore family or in front of Ryder! I will always be your son and remember your kindness to me!"
Karen was stunned for a moment.
Then she looked at her confident son Kyle, sniffed, and smiled through her tears.
