Chapter 889
Liam clenched his fists, reluctantly saying, "I can't leave now; Sophia is still too young. You should order nbsp;someone else."
nbsp;
"Sophia has plenty of people to take care of her. Besides, I don't trust you with Sophia when you're so close to a woman as malicious as Cassie. I don't want Sophia to become a hostage again. She's young and doesn't understand anything, but you, as her father, listened to some stupid instruction and used nbsp;Sophia to threaten me. Have you ever thought that if Cassie is serious, Sophia could lose her life at any moment?" nbsp;Joseph cursed.
nbsp;
Joseph glared at him fiercely. nbsp;"I am the head of the Hernandez family, and Sophia is part of the Hernandez family. I have the right to decide everything for you all."
nbsp;
"You are simply overbearing and arrogant to the extreme," Liam said angrily. "Why do you think of Cassie as so malicious? She was really unlucky to fall in love with you."
nbsp;
"Love?" Joseph sneered. nbsp;"Someone like Cassie doesn't deserve my love. I was too foolish before. From now on, I don't want to see Sophia near her again."
nbsp;
"I'm telling you, I won't go to Yugrot." Liam shook his head. He couldn't leave Sophia alone at the Hernandez House. He had also promised Cassie that he would protect Sophia well and let the mother and daughter meet often.
nbsp;
"If you don't want to go, then you can forget about being the general manager. Go work at the grassroots level of the company," Joseph said coldly.
nbsp;
"Fine, you are truly heartless," nbsp;Liam said.
nbsp;
A surge of hatred and humiliation rose in Liam's heart as he turned and walked away with large strides.
nbsp;
At the door, he paused and looked back. nbsp;"Joseph, I consider Cassie a good friend and can trust her unconditionally. But you, she sleeps beside you every night, and yet your trust in her doesn't even compare to mine. nbsp;Even though the police are conducting a normal investigation into Spencer's case, you won't give Cassie a chance to explain. You're too ruthless; you'll regret it sooner or later."
nbsp;
After saying this, Liam slammed the door and left without looking back.
nbsp;
In the office, Joseph pounded his fist on the table, a look of confusion flashing in his eyes.
nbsp;
Was he nbsp;ruthless? It was Cassie who forced him to be.
nbsp;
This time, Cassie had thoroughly provoked his most intolerable point by using Sophia to threaten him.
nbsp;
He would never forgive Cassie again.
nbsp;
At that moment, his phone rang. It was Nathan calling from the hospital.
nbsp;
"Mr. Hernandez, when are you coming over? Megan hasn't eaten anything since you came by this morning and has been listless. Usually, Mr. Jude would come by, but we haven't seen him for days," nbsp;Nathan stated.
nbsp;
"I have some matters at the company. I'll be there soon," nbsp;Joseph answered.
nbsp;
Joseph quickly went over. When Megan saw him, her spirits lifted a bit, and she ate a little. "By the way, Joseph, I heard... Spencer seems to have been sent to the police station."
nbsp;
Joseph nodded, his eyes narrowing slightly. nbsp;"The police have filed a case. It will go to court for trial."
nbsp;
"That's good," Megan said with a relieved smile. "Taking the law into our own hands is never right. It's better to leave it to the police."
nbsp;
Nathan said impatiently, "But for a kidnapping case like this, he might only get a few years."
nbsp;
"I believe he will sincerely repent in prison, and we should abide by the law," Megan said earnestly.
nbsp;
Nathan sighed. nbsp;"You're just too kind."
nbsp;
Joseph looked down at Megan's gentle and pure face, unable to help but think of Cassie's malicious expression. He couldn't help but wonder if he had truly loved the wrong person.
nbsp;
Yes, maybe he didn't love Megan anymore, but at least she was kind-hearted, while he had hurt her repeatedly for someone like Cassie.
nbsp;
"Mr. Hernandez, you will definitely be Megan's lawyer for her case, right?" Nathan suddenly said. nbsp;"I'm just worried that Cassie might hire a more powerful lawyer, and then it would be troublesome if Spencer gets acquitted."
