Chapter 803 Rhys's Conscience

"Mr. Gary, why do you want to help me?"

After a short while, Rhys returned to his senses and finally understood what Gary actually meant.

'Why does he want to do that? Is it just because I'm the son-in-law of the Mu family?' Rhys pondered to himself.

"As I said, Eunice's father is an old friend of mine, so I'm not just helping you out. I'm doing my old friend a favor. Mr. Vice President, many people are standing by your side right now. If you don't strive for it, you'll feel sorry in front of your father-in-law at a later time."

Gary finished his words, smiling like an amiable elder.

All of a sudden, a cup of hot tea splashed all over his face.

"Bah!"

Rhys sneered and threw the empty tea cup on the floor, shattering to pieces. "Bullshit! What kind of a mayor are you? You're nothing more than a blatant hypocrite.

Regardless of how incompetent you think I am, I'm still part of the An family! I'd never help an outsider, against my conscience, hurt my own family! I'm not a traitor!"

Even if he succeeded in taking over the AJ Group one day in the distant future, the members of the Mu family could definitely use this issue to threaten him and eventually coerce him to merge the AJ Group with theirs.

Of course, he wasn't stupid. Rhys could read between the lines. He understood their sinister intentions.

"You... "

Gary stared blankly at Rhys, who was going crazy in front of him. Due to the tea that was spilled all over his face, he couldn't see anything with the blurred glasses.

"You've gone way too far! Mayor Su was so kind to you. Why could you be so ungrateful to him?"

Secretary Liu heard the noise and barged in immediately. He took out the handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the mess for Gary.

Gary closed his eyes and took a deep breath, strenuously trying to calm himself down. "Vice President An, I hope you can calm down and think it over.

Prison or a bright future with a great fortune? It's up to you. You can make your choice."

Then, he pushed the secretary away and walked out of the room banging the door closed behind him.

Secretary Liu took a look at Rhys, shook his head and followed him cordially.

Watching them leaving the room, Rhys sneered.

He knew clearly that there were some matters of disagreement between the An family and the Su family. Now, Gary had taken the initiative to talk to him about it. He must be up to something.

Before long, someone came over and walked him out.

The driver also talked to him before he got off

er life.

And in the end, she just might end up being divorced.

Back at the Seaview Villa, the weather was getting colder as days passed by.

Carla became lazier with every passing week and was reluctant to go out. Fortunately, the room had been brightened up and the scenery was beautiful.

Even if she didn't go out, she could still see everything outside and notice the change in the seasons.

"Mrs. An, the baby is in excellent condition. Your job is to simply maintain a good mood, stay away from stress and take lots of good rest. If you really want to go out for a walk, you can, but don't wear yourself out, okay? Your health is of prime importance now."

Cameron, the director of the Obstetrics department had made it a point to come visit his patient at her house in person. She had finished examining Carla.

"Mr. Director, thank you very much. Carol, help me walk the doctor out,"

Carla said, waving to Carol.

Carol came over and guided the doctor out.

Carla breathed a sigh of relief. She gently rubbed her belly, which was still flat. It had only been two months, and she suddenly felt that it was taking very long.

However, when the thought of the birthing pains she was going to suffer in about seven months, crossed her mind, she felt a bit frightened.

Since she had given birth to a baby before, she knew the piercing pain that her body would face when the time came.

"What's wrong? Why is your face dull, my dear?"

Terence entered with a tray of fresh fruit in his hands. He had inquired about her health to the director of the hospital and he knew that Carla was fine. He wondered why she looked so sad instead of being happy.
