Chapter 36: Getting Bruce White To Kneel In Front Of Mark Richards To Apologize!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Albert Richards tried his best to explain the situation with his phone in hand. However, there were just too many people calling him and asking him what was going on. It was a neverending torrent of calls.

‘Who exactly did I provoke?’ Albert Richards thought. His contractors had gone on strike, his company had been smashed, and his projects had all been terminated. Not only that, but his suppliers were also calling him and telling him that they wanted to settle payment early and then terminate their partnership.

The Richards’ business was a large enterprise and the payments for their projects were either done once a year or once every six months. However, now, all of Albert Richard’s suppliers were swarming around him and requesting early payment.

That was going to destroy the Richards. There was no way they could produce that much money in such a short time. Albert Richards had no choice but to sincerely plead with the suppliers to give him some time. The more high and mighty he acted on an average day, the lowlier his tone was when he pleaded with them now.

Albert Richards had completely disregarded his reputation. If not for the fact that it was over the phone, he might have knelt in front of the suppliers to beg them. Albert Richards had fallen from a high and mighty second-rate millionaire to a debt-ridden rascal overnight—no, in a matter of minutes.

‘What the f*ck is going on!!!’ Albert Richards thought. He never dreamed that he would become famous in Porta for such a reason. No one in Porta would dare to borrow money from Albert Richards now. Heck, they might not even take Albert Richard’s money even if he gave it to them.

‘What exactly is going on? Could it really be because of that brat’s call?’ Albert Richards wondered. He was miserable. At this moment, Brianne Taylor took advantage of the opportunity when the Richards were not paying attention to pull Bruce White out of the hotel.

This was the first time in the history of Porta that a bride had run away with another man on her wedding night. However, the Richards were in utter chaos and had no energy to deal with Brianne Taylor. To the Richards, Brianne Taylor was just an item that they had bought.

Bruce White whipped out a lollipop from his pocket after they left the hotel. He asked, “Are you willing to give me another chance?”

Brianne Taylor bawled when she saw the lollipop in Bruce White’s hand. ‘He still remembers our deal. I’ll follow him as long as he has a lollipop in hand. He remembers. He did not forget. He did not forget!’ Brianne Taylor cried to herself.

Then, Brianne Taylor tugged at Bruce White as they ran. She cried as she ran, but there was a blissful smile on her face. To her, making this decision might be in the spur of the moment, but it revealed what she really felt deep inside.

She tossed the marriage between the two families and the possible consequences of breaking it to the back of her head. At this moment, all she wanted was to be with the person she loved, even if it was just for one more second.

Bruce White, who was being pulled along, silently observed her from behind. He stayed by her side but did not say anything. All he did was stare at Brianne Taylor and watch her vent all of the emotion she had in her heart.

Finally, the two of them arrived at the ‘secret base’ that only they knew about. They had been here before when they were young.

They might have called it a secret base, but it was really just an ancient locust tree by the side of the river. However, this ancient locust tree carried their childhood memories. It was here that the two of them swore to forever be by each other’s side. They swore to never leave each other until the world ceased to be.

“Ahhh...” Brianne Taylor, who was still wearing her wedding dress, shouted at the raging river. There was a lot of frustration in her voice. As she shouted, tears started to fall from Brianne Taylor’s eyes once again.

When Brianne Taylor turned around again, Bruce White saw that she did not look like she had vented all her frustrations. Instead, she was surrounded by endless loneliness and worries. His heart started to hurt again when he witnessed this scene. A flash of guilt appeared on his face. Bruce White hugged Brianne Taylor and they sat under the ancient locust tree and watched the clouds and the river like they did when they were young.

Brianne Taylor leaned into Bruce White’s embrace. Though she felt blissful, there was still an unerasable worry on her face. She murmured, “What should we do next? The Richards might cause trouble at the Taylors’ residence if they can’t find us. Dad’s remains are still with them. Furthermore, Dad’s greatest wish is to be accepted by the Taylors again and to revitalize the Taylor family. I want to help him fulfill his dying wish.”

Bruce White felt upset when he heard that. Bruce White’s adoptive father, Keith Taylor, had disregarded his family’s objections and had given Bruce every cent he could in support of Bruce’s business venture. However, the relationship between Keith Taylor and the Taylors had become extremely unfriendly as a result. Back then, the Taylors did not say anything as Zane Corporation had been developing at a steady rate. However, the Taylors were also implicated after Bruce White was framed and sent to prison. Their businesses declined drastically. In her fury, the old lady of the Taylor family exiled Keith Taylor from the family. That became Keith Taylor’s greatest regret. He always had it on his mind. After that, Keith Taylor was harmed by Thomas Zane and died a pitiful death when he tried to help Bruce White repeal his case.

This was Bruce White’s greatest regret. He had made many contributions in battle, but he never expected that his adoptive father would be exiled from his family or that he would die a pitiful death because of him.

“Don’t worry, leave the matter to me. I’ll definitely get the Taylors to accept Dad again and help Dad revitalize the Taylors. I will also take good care of you and Mum and not let any harm come to both of you ever again,” Bruce White promised ceremoniously.

Brianne Taylor smiled. However, there still seemed to be an immense burden in her heart. Her brows remained tense. She said to Bruce White, “Bruce, can you not recklessly hit people in the future? This is not pri- Anyway, just promise me. Can you not recklessly hit anyone in the future?”

Bruce White smiled. He knew that Brianne Taylor was being concerned for him. Thus, he nodded and promised, “Alright, I’ll promise you.”

Then, Bruce White sent Brianne Taylor back to the hotel she was staying at. He checked into the room beside hers and notified Kirin of his location.

He had thought that everything had been resolved. However, Bruce White discovered that Brianne Taylor had left without saying goodbye when he woke up the next day. She only left behind a note which read, ‘Don’t look for me.’

Bruce White immediately knitted his brows. He whipped out his phone but discovered that Brianne Taylor had turned off her phone.

‘Where did she go?’ Bruce White wondered. He had a faint sense of unease and instantly got Green Dragon to help him investigate the matter. However, nothing came out of the investigation.

This made Bruce White feel even more uneasy. Brianne Taylor must have made such a decision because she did not want to implicate him.

“How can I bear to make you face this alone?” Bruce White sighed. He had Kirin and Green Dragon continue searching for Brianne Taylor as best as they could.

At this moment, Brianne Taylor had returned to the Taylors’ residence in Porta alone.

The atmosphere in the Taylors’ residence had been extremely oppressive before Brianne Taylor appeared. After all, Brianne Taylor had openly broken the arrangement of marriage and had run away with a wild man. This act thoroughly sullied the reputation of the Richards.

As expected, the Richards had called the Taylors early in the morning and asked for their million dollars back. However, the Taylors could not agree to pay back the million dollars. They needed that money to save their family.

Some time ago, the Taylors had urgently required money for an investment, but they had been unable to raise the money no matter what they did. Thus, they took the risk and borrowed money from a private finance company. The company called itself a finance company but was actually a glorified loan shark in disguise.

In the end, the Taylors managed to borrow the money but their investment failed. Now, the loan sharks were chasing after them for payment and the daily interest rate was alarmingly high. Their initial loan of 500,000 dollars had snowballed into a million. The Taylors had intended to pay the loan sharks back with the million dollars they got from the Richards. How could they return it to the Richards now?

At this moment, an old lady who looked 70, was sitting on the main seat. She tapped the floor fiercely with her walking stick and scolded, “Get that wretched lass back here immediately! Also, bring that bast*rd with her.. I want Bruce White to personally kneel in front of Mr. Richards to apologize!”
