“It’s a fact that ude bullied Ci. If you don’t want him to go to jail, then send him abroad.”
A few years abroad, and by the time he returned, Ci would have established herself in Aetherton, and ude would never be able to bully her again.
This was the greatest benefit Bonnie could fight for her granddaughter.
Otherwise, if things kept going on like this, Ci would eventually be destroyed by them.
“No way.” Dillon was the first to object.
ude’s eyes reddened as he red at Bonnie with hatred. “I’m not going abroad.”
“Then what do you want?” Bonnie suddenly raised her voice, losing her temper. “Are you just going to let Ci be bullied by you for nothing?”
Prisci knew Bonnie was standing up for her, but she didn’t want to see Bonnie get angry.
Bonnie’s protection was enough to warm her battered heart.
Bonnie’s health was more important than anything.
“Grandma, Ci is fine.” Prisci tried tofort Bonnie, but tears welled up again.

But the pain and grievance in her heart were impossible to suppress.
Wesley gently gripped her shoulder. He stood tall, the tenderness in his eyes reced by a stern aura.
“It’s settled then.”
“Hold a press conference, apologize publicly, and then go abroad.”
ude panicked. “Wes, you’re kicking me out for her?”
And he had to hold a press conference to apologize publicly?
That was like rubbing his face in the dirt.
Wesley said coldly, “Would you rather go to jail?”
ude was left speechless.
That incident had caused significant losses for the Carlton Group as well. If they really pursued it, ude would have to spend several years behind bars.
Now, just sending him abroad was already an act of great leniency.
Dillon grew anxious and looked to Frank, hoping he would speak up.
But Frank remained silent, clearly unwilling to help.
Dillon could only grit his teeth and plead with Bonnie: “Mom, I’ll keep ud in line from now on. If Prisci feels wronged,

“If you could keep him in line, how did he turn out like this? You even shamelessly asked his sister to kneel to him. What kind of person is he?”
The more she spoke, the angrier she became, not even bothering to look at him again.
ude was furious, but with Wesley present, he dared not say more. He bit his lip and stormed out the door.
He had to find Larissa for help.
Larissa could persuade Wesley to change his mind.
Dillon hurried after him.
Frank coughed<i>, </i>wanting to say something.
Prisci said expressionlessly, “Please leave. Grandma needs

Frank nced at Bonnie’s ashen face, rubbed his nose, and for a moment wanted to speak but couldn’t find the words.
In the end, he could only leave.
The hospital room quieted down.
Wesley spoke softly, “Prisci, go get some rest. I’ll have a

Prisci looked haggard and disheveled, in no mood to deal with his tenderness.
The gentleness on Wesley’s face faded.
A three–day business trip, he hadpressed into two just toe back and see her.
And now that he was back, he stood up for her.
But she was driving him away.
All his passionate feelings were chilled by her attitude.
He pulled her out of the hospital room, watching her expression closely.
“Are you ming me?”
Prisci met his gaze coldly, her face expressionless. “The waiting period is about to end. I hope you’ll show up on time.”
There was a few seconds of dead silence in the corridor.
Wesley let go of her, his thin lips pressed together, his eyes suddenly darkening.
But he still managed to suppress his anger.

Prisci mercilessly shook off his hand, her swollen eyes full of anger. “Wesley, it was you, wasn’t it? You were the one who instigated Larissa to bring Grandma back to Aetherton.”
Wesley frowned. “I can exin.”
He recounted what had happened that day. “Prisci, it was a misunderstanding.”
Besides, as soon as he found out, he immediately had Bonnie transferred to another room.
Prisci shook her head, refusing to listen to such exnations.
Her eyes wereyered with pain upon pain.
“Wesley, I don’t love you anymore. Please let me go.”
“Prisci.”
Prisci tilted her head back, her face full of impatience, but her eyes burned with sarcasm.
