CHAPTER 148: CHAPTER 148: HENRY JENNINGS WANTS TO SEIZE SUMMERS?

"Henry!"

Outside the door, Henry Jennings walked in with his assistant. As soon as he entered, he saw Claudia Bell rushing toward him in a sorry state.

Henry furrowed his brows slightly and instinctively avoided Claudia.

"Henry, they bullied me." Claudia cried as she held onto Henry’s arm. "She hit me, even though she knows I’m your fiancée, yet she still hit me."

Claudia pointed at Michelle Lockwood, who was leaning against Caden Summers, looking as if she was lodging a complaint.

Michelle sat up straight and smiled at Henry. "Couldn’t win a fight and now calling the boyfriend for help?"

Henry didn’t look at Michelle; his eyes were on Yvette Aston.

He instinctively shook off Claudia’s hand and stepped forward. "Why are you in the hospital?"

Yvette lowered her head and didn’t speak.

Grasping Yvette’s wrist, Henry quickly looked her up and down, and only after ensuring she wasn’t hurt did he let out a sigh of relief.

Claudia’s return to Meridia led Henry to believe Yvette would be in Solara tonight, making him careless.

With Claudia’s temperament, she would undoubtedly be unfavorable towards Yvette.

"Did she do anything to you?" Henry asked in a low voice when he saw Yvette wasn’t speaking.

"Summers... they hurt Summers." Yvette instinctively hid behind Ethan Grant, avoiding Henry.

Ethan’s face was grim as he looked menacingly at Henry.

Jayden Grant was someone he could dismiss, but Henry was different.

He still had to be wary of Henry.

Henry was his match in the business field and had an edge over Yvette, making Ethan jealous and murderous over Summers’ blood relation to him.

Henry now realized that Summers was in Ethan’s arms.

"Summers." Henry reached out, trying to take Summers.

"My son is asleep." Ethan warned Henry.

"..." Henry frowned, his face looking displeased at Ethan’s childish behavior, which seemed to escalate to snatching a child from him?

"Henry!" Claudia fumed, her eyes reddening as she stomped her foot looking at Henry. "I’m your fiancée."

Wendy Bell’s eyes were also dark.

The man both sisters wanted had eyes only for Yvette.

Ha...

They definitely couldn’t let her be.

But now wasn’t the time.

Ethan was currently at odds with Arthur Grant, in a deadlock.

She couldn’t confront Ethan directly now; she had to go along with Ethan, find a way to help him, and first gain his favor.

"Claudia, stop making a scene. You’re in the wrong in this matter. You bullied Yvette in Montville, and she was lenient with you. Not knowing how to repent after coming out, you continued to harm her and even accidentally hurt the child." Wendy reproached Claudia, her eyes reddening.

"Sis..." Claudia didn’t dare provoke Wendy. In the Bell Family, everyone was afraid of Wendy.

Because she would make a scene and threaten suicide.

"Henry, Ethan seems to have been bewitched by this little vixen, insisting on opposing the Jennings Family and the Bell Family, and ruining Claudia’s reputation, causing the Jennings Family to be shamed." Mrs. Bell hurriedly stepped forward, demanding Henry stand up for the Bell Family.

The Bell Family and Jennings Family were now inseparable in glory and shame, so Henry had to stand up for President Jennings if not for himself.

"Ethan... for Henry’s sake, let Claudia apologize to Yvette and issue a public apology statement. Would that work?" Wendy implored Ethan with a choking voice.

"Apology statement? I want her to admit all her crimes and then get out of Meridia." Ethan’s stance was firm.

He must make Claudia leave Meridia forever and never appear before him again.

"Ethan, how Claudia is handled should be up to me. Isn’t it a bit too much for you to intervene?" Henry looked at Ethan with a dark expression.

Clearly, he was setting himself against Ethan.

"Summers is my child, also of the Jennings bloodline. Since he cannot be properly protected in Meridia, I have the right to take him back to Montville." Henry spoke solemnly again.

Yvette looked at Henry with a panicked expression, her voice hoarse. "Summers is mine... You promised you wouldn’t take Summers away from me."

"Did you protect him well? All you know is to run around with Ethan, and Summers now needs company. If you can’t take care of him properly, you should hand him over to me." Henry was angry.

Jealous of Yvette’s instinctive move to hide behind Ethan.

Yvette seemed to rely heavily on Ethan now.

In Henry’s eyes, Ethan wasn’t a good person at all; they were all foxes refined over a thousand years. A man knows another man best.

Yvette was foolish for choosing Ethan over him.

At least his feelings for Yvette were genuine. What did Ethan have?

He only had exploitation!

"Henry, we’ll take good care of Summers. You can’t take him away." Caden Summers was also a bit anxious.

"You guys take care? Bringing the child to the hospital is the result of your care?" Henry spoke up with furrowed brows.

Michelle squinted her eyes, and a woman’s sixth sense told her that this relationship was a little messy.

Yvette and Henry had Summers?

Oh wow, impressive.

Making the two leading wolves of the domestic business circle compete head-to-head...

Her skills must be more than just her looks, right?

"Lucas, I’ll pay to get President Jennings an eye exam." Michelle nudged Lucas Lockwood, who was watching the show, asking him to register.

"That’s not my concern; I’m on emergency duty today." Lucas said casually. "Besides, the doctors are off-duty now; registration will have to wait until tomorrow."

Henry glanced back at Michelle with a dark expression.

He knew Michelle, having met her at a business banquet of the Hale Family in M Country a few years ago.

This woman was quite legendary and was clearly not someone to be trifled with.

"Henry, your girlfriend brought people to harm my boyfriend and also my child, yet you didn’t reprimand your girlfriend right away. Instead, you want to take the child away. What are you up to?" Michelle didn’t hold back against Henry, directly pointing it out.

Clearly, she meant to use the child to control Yvette.

"My family matters, not something for Mrs. Hale to meddle in, right?" Henry deliberately called Michelle Mrs. Hale to remind her of her deceased husband.

"Don’t you know my home is by the sea?" Michelle was infuriated by Henry, and she got up to confront him.

Caden quickly held Michelle back, for Henry wasn’t someone to cross with.

"Yvette, Ethan, thank you for taking care of Summers. I’ll take my boss... home; she’s tired." Caden dragged Michelle out.

"Why are you dragging me? I insist on getting involved in this matter today. I’m willing! What can you do to me?" Michelle rolled up her sleeves.

Caden gasped and hoisted Michelle over his shoulder, carrying her away directly.

"Henry, you even have an eye for someone like Claudia Bell. Are you blind..." Michelle was still cursing in the hallway.

Henry rubbed his temples and looked back at Yvette. "Bring Summers and come back with me."

"I don’t..." Yvette fearfully hid behind Ethan.

She didn’t want to go with Henry.

"Yvette, don’t make me say it a second time." Henry’s patience was wearing thin.

"Doesn’t President Jennings understand human language? Not only do you need an eye exam, but now you also need an ENT specialist?" Ethan consoled Summers and frowned, warning Henry to lower his voice and not scare Summers.

Henry took a deep breath, suppressing all his anger at Summers’ soft cries.

For the sake of the child, he held back.

"Ethan, I’m Summers’ father. Hand him over to me." Henry demanded from Ethan. "I remember Mr. Grant seems very interested in the mining project in the Montville development zone."

Henry turned back, smiling at Arthur Grant. "Mr. Grant, my grandfather said this project shouldn’t be monopolized by the Jennings Family alone. He really hopes to cooperate with the Grant Family, but that depends on the Grant Family’s sincerity."
