Chapter 116 Shall I Go And Beg That Gigolo?
That evening, Claudia returned to her parents' house. Maisie and Adam were both surprised to seetheir daughter back.
"Claudia, you're out? Your dad and I have been trying to pull some strings to get you off the hook!"Maisie exclaimed with joy.
Adam also looked relieved. "We talked to Tom, and even though he kicked us out at first, he endedup helping you in the end!"
Claudia snorted at their words. "Tom didn't do anything for me. He doesn't want anything to do withme anymore."
During her time in custody, she had called Tom on the phone. But Lachlan had scared him so muchthat he wanted nothing more to do with Claudia.
Tiger and his men had been caught by the police while Tom was present at the scene of their arrest.He saw firsthand how powerful Lachlan's connections were and how terrifying his strength could be.
Even Eduard himself came personally with his troops to help Lachlan out of trouble.
And as for Lachlan himself... he was a force to be reckoned with.
Tom knew better than anyone not to mess around with him anymore - especially when it came downClaudia who happened be Lachlan's ex-wife!
"If it wasn't Tom or Lachlan who helped you get out of trouble then who did?" Maisie askedcuriously.
Adam chimed in too, "Lachlan must still have feelings for you! Maybe he softened up after all theseyears? After all, everyone knows how much he loved you back then."
Claudia's eyes flickered a few times upon hearing this but she shook her head dismissively, "Itwasn't either of them. Don't worry about it."
With that said, she went into the room that Maisie had set aside just for her use during this visithome.
Although she said this on the surface, Claudia couldn't help but feel a slight unease. After enteringthe room, Claudia hesitated for a while, then dialed Lachlan's number.
She called several times, but each time, he hung up. It wasn't until the sixth attempt that he finallyanswered the call.
"Claudia?"
It was Lachlan's cold voice over the phone line
"Lachlan, it's me! I... I've come out," Claudia said in a gentle voice.
"Oh? You actually got out? Well, congratulations. What's the matter?" Lachlan asked with a smirk.At this moment, he had taken his phone and gone into the bathroom to avoid Nora, who wasnearby, from hearing their conversation.
"Lachlan, I know I was wrong! Please, give me another chance for the sake of our daughter. Ipromise to change and be good to you. Only if we remarry can we give our daughter a completefamily, don't you agree?" Claudia pleaded softly.
Upon hearing this, Lachlan couldn't help but sneer and gave Claudia only one word, "Get out!"
For the sake of Nora? When their daughter was critically ill before, Lachlan borrowed 10, 000dollars from her to save their daughter's life. But this heartless woman refused him.
Now she talked about doing it for their daughter?
After saying that, Lachlan was about to hang up the phone directly.
"Lachlan! Wait! Please don't treat me like this! I really know my mistake now! Tom that bastarddoesn't want me anymore and... I don't even know how to live without him..."
"Honey, now I understand that you are the person who loves me most in this world and treats mebest. I can't live without you!"
"Honey, let's go back to how things were before. You care about me so much; surely you can't bearseeing me like this?"
Claudia said with a crying voice pitifully then continued expectantly, "By the way, there is somethingelse I want to tell you. Can we meet?"
After a moment of silence on Lachlan's end, he said, "Claudia, do you know? I used to be kind toyou, at best, it was just being foolish. But now, if I continue to have anything to do with you, that'sjust being pathetic!"
"People can be foolish but they cannot be pathetic!"
"So just stop it."
With that said, Lachlan hung up directly while also blocking Claudia's number at once.
Listening to the busy tone on her phone, Claudia turned pale with anger.
"Lachlan, you will regret it! I swear!"
"You are my man, I cannot win your love back so I must destroy yours instead. You wait!"

"What I cannot have, I'd rather destroy. Miranda, this is what forced my hand!"
The next morning, Frederick switched hotels and sat on his couch grinding his teeth as he dialed anumber.
"Jadiel, it's Frederick!"
"That batch of poor quality herbs in your hands hasn't been sold yet, right? You should contactLowe's Pharmaceutical!"
"Yes, they are in urgent need of raw materials now. Can you guarantee that you can handle it?"
"Hehe, no problem!"
After hanging up the phone, Frederick's face showed a sinister and resentful expression.
At yesterday's business exchange meeting, he was humiliated and became the laughingstock ofeveryone present.
He almost completely ruined his reputation!
Fortunately, Vincent instructed the guests who attended last night not to spread this matter out forthe sake of the Brooks family's face.
So although Frederick stunk within Edoland business circle, at least it hadn't spread completely yet.
Now he hated Miranda and Lachlan to his bones!
However, he did not find out that Miranda had already been expelled by the Lowe family. This wasnot an honorable thing and the Lowe family did not publicize it externally.
Therefore, there were some errors in Frederick's information search. He thought that Miranda wasthe CEO of Lowe's Pharmaceutical.
So he came up with this vicious plan to kill Miranda!
That day, in the afternoon!
Romeo's face changed constantly in Lowe's Pharmaceutical CEO office.
"Dad, what happened? Did you find out?" Harlow asked nervously when she saw Romeo's uglyexpression.
Eliza also looked at her husband with some concern!
"I found out! Albie and those people probably cut us off because of Lachlan!" Romeo said fiercely ashe hammered on his desk.
He contacted Albie to ask who exactly they offended?
But Albie didn't even bother with him.
Romeo could only investigate through other channels.
Just now finally got a message: Albie's son was once poisoned and Lachlan indirectly saved him.And that child also had leukemia which was cured by Lachlan himself.
In other words, Lachlan was Albie's son savior!
The answer was about to come out!
"Damn it, it turned out we really offended Lachlan?" Harlow said with an ugly face.
"Hmph, we offended someone we shouldn't have offended!? I thought who it would be, but turns outjust a useless guy!"
"Isn't it just a little favor for Albie? It sounds like Lachlan is some great person." Eliza sneered.
Harlow's face darkened. "Dad, what do we do now? Are we really going to beg that little punk?"
