Revenge with Her Quadruplets

Chapter 29 Outwitted by Eleanor

Chapter 29 Outwitted by Eleanor

Michael felt a shiver in his heart as he looked at Sebastian. He couldn't figure out why things had gone wrong, as it had all seemed within his control.

Sebastian looked at Michael and Madison and demanded, "Apologize to my wife before you leave."

Eleanor was momentarily surprised. Did he just acknowledge her as his wife in front of all these people?

Michael clenched his fists tightly and was reluctant to apologize to Eleanor. Who did she think she was?

However, Madison knew that things would only get worse if this continued.

She walked up to Eleanor, forced a smile on her face, and apologized, "Eleanor, it's all a big misunderstanding tonight. I'm sorry! Please don't take it to heart."

Without giving Eleanor a chance to respond, Madison pulled her son towards Eleanor and pinched Michael's hand. She urged, "Apologize to your aunt now."

Michael knew that this apology would ruin his self esteem, but he also feared Sebastian and the people around him.

The Moore Empire wasn't something he could obtain easily. He might be eliminated by Sebastian before even laying his hand on it.

"Aunt, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you tonight," Michael apologized with his head lowered, though he was trying to maintain his pride. He felt humiliated to address her as aunt.

He vowed to get this back in the future.

He would also find out what happened tonight.

Eleanor put on a faint smile on her pretty face which appeared more attractive in the lights. She responded, "You've said that it was a misunderstanding. I won't hold a grudge. However, what about the young girl you harassed? With so many people as witnesses, how can she continue living with this stigma?"

Michael pursed his lips and glanced at the woman who was keeping her head down. His eyes flashed with murderous anger.

"Aunt, I'll take care of this," Michael said. He was going to destroy this woman for his family's eviction.

Nevertheless, it might work out in his favor.

Eleanor seemed concerned and asked, "How will you handle this? You have to explain your plan to everyone. Given that she was dragged into this because of me, I can't just stand by."

Michael looked at Eleanor whose expression was calm. Her words were both reasonable and impeccable.

It was at this moment that he realized he had underestimated her and that she had outsmarted him.

He looked over at the girl who had been crying and asked, "I'm sorry for what I did tonight. What kind of compensation do you desire?"

These people might be driven by money, and it would be easy to get rid of them.

He just had to tolerate no matter how much money she asked for to settle the matter.

The girl wiped her tears away and spoke softly, "Mr. Moore, since this was a misunderstanding and you've already apologized, there's not much more to say. I'd like to continue working for Old Master Moore and cooking his meals. I'm an excellent cook, and the monthly salary Old Master Moore provides is generous. I just want to keep my job and stay alive!"

Her reply sounded as if Michael might take her life.

Indeed, after she said these words, if something happened to her, Michael would be responsible for this.

Michael saw through the girl's intentions. He had been outwitted tonight and felt both aggrieved and angry, but he had to bear the burden himself.

He took out his wallet, took out a card, and handed it to the girl, saying, "The money on this card should cover all your pain and suffering tonight."

This could also help him later uncover the truth about what happened tonight.

Old Master Moore wanted to go back to sleep, so he took over the card and placed it in the girl's hand. He said, "Take it. Everyone can go back now."

Old Master Moore whispered to Michael, "Mike, Sebastian won't let you off tonight. Leave the house immediately, or you won't even know how you'll meet your end."

Michael knew that his grandfather couldn't protect him. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

The drama had ended, and everyone went back, but the girl who got that card had become an object of envy for all.

Eleanor returned to Sannot Courtyard with Sebastian. On their way back, they didn't exchange a single word. Upon getting upstairs, Eleanor continued to ignore Sebastian as she carried Waylon

back to her room.

After she walked a few steps, she heard a stern voice, "Stop right there."
