Chapter 640 Change Of Mind

The bodyguards came out of nowhere and stood in Duncan's way. One of them said it, word for word, "Sir, you are not allowed to go out."

A voice abruptly stopped the guards. It was Carrie's.

"I asked my son to come with me. If Hanley gets mad at you, tell him that it's on me. I'll talk to him."

It was common knowledge to the bodyguards how important Carrie was to Hanley. So, after what she said, they did not dare stop Duncan anymore.

Then, Carrie led the way out of the villa and told him, "You can do whatever you want. But remember, you have to come back as soon as possible, or else there won't be a next time. Your father will surely lock you up somewhere out of my reach."

"Got it," answered Duncan, giving his mother a casual nod.

Then, he left with Haley.

Haley drove the car at full throttle. However, Duncan felt it was still very slow. He only urged Haley to drive faster.

Haley felt helpless at Duncan's demands. He had already floored the gas pedal.

But Duncan still wanted to go faster!

The car was not an airplane for heaven's sake!

Unfortunately, he kept his misgivings to himself. He couldn't afford to voice them out to Duncan as he was still in a bad mood.

He could only go as fast as the car would let him. After a couple of minutes, Haley broke the silence. "How important is this thing you need to deal with, anyway? Let me know so I can help. And, how about you call Ashley first? It's already late. There are no more flights at this hour even if we go to the airport now."

They were now cruising toward the direction of the airport.

Only then did Duncan remember that he could call Ashley in advance. Thanks to Haley's reminder, he took out his phone and called Ashley.

His mother had returned his phone the moment they got out of the villa.

The ringing at the other end of the line could be heard. It took a while for Ashley to answer the phone. "Hello, Duncan. What's up?"

Hearing Ashley's voice calmed Duncan down a little.

Tightly holding his phone, Duncan was suddenly

out. If you are mad, be mad at me. I was the one who disobeyed your orders anyway,"

Carrie, Duncan's mother, said while looking at her husband who was fuming mad.

Hanley looked at his wife and sighed. How could he be angry with her?

"You are so confident that I won't do anything to you,"

Hanley said helplessly, looking at his wife.

Carrie just gave a little chuckle and said nothing.

Allowing Duncan to go out without Hanley's permission was already a feat for Carrie.

At that same time, as Hanley raised his head, he saw Duncan coming in.

Now, it was hard for Hanley to sit still on the sofa.

After being comforted by his wife, he didn't say anything anymore. Just when he was starting to accept the fact that Duncan had left and he couldn't do anything about it, the boy suddenly came back!

Wearing a long face, Hanley stood up. He asked coldly, "Where the hell have you been?"

Not realizing that his father was slowly losing his temper, Duncan just stared straight into his father's eyes.

"I want to take over the company," said Duncan, emphasizing each word.

"What?!"

It wasn't the reply that Hanley was expecting. Haley also heard it the moment he entered the living room behind Duncan.

Haley's was completely puzzled, his mouth agape.

'What did Duncan say just now?' He didn't think he heard it correctly.
