Chapter 479
Brad said doubtfully, “From what I know, Marcus is a loyal veteran at Rhodes Corporation. Will he really do as you ask?”
Harvey sneered. “Of course, he wouldn’t normally cooperate, but he has no choice with his precious daughter in my hands. Blood is thicker than water, after all.”
“Y–You kidnapped Marcus‘ daughter?” Brad gasped in shock.
Harvey snapped, “Why are you panicking? The end justifies the means. I’ll do whatever it takes to crush Rhodes Corporation’s pharmaceutical division. Besides, I hired underground thugs to do the kidnapping–even if it gets exposed, it can’t be traced back to the Weller family.”
Just then, Harvey’s phone rang. After answering it, he cursed, “Those bloodsucking quality control inspectors, damn them! All they do is snoop around.”
He stood up and headed for the door, adding, “I’m coming right over. Make sure you treat those animals well–give them whatever they want!!
Before leaving, Harvey turned back to Brad and said, “I’ll send you Marcus‘ number–be ready to meet with him at any time.”
“Don’t worry, Harvey. I’ll handle it perfectly!” Brad assured him.
Soon, only Brad and Serena remained in the living room. After glancing around to ensure they were alone, Brad rushed over and embraced Serena, kissing her passionately.
“Serena, I’ve missed you so much! Let me kiss you–I haven’t been able to sleep without being close to you!” Brad panted, saying endearingly.
Serena pushed Brad away in disgust and complained, “Stop it! You’re messing up my hair and dress. Do you know Harvey just bought me this designer dress from Fraines? It’s expensive!”
“You won’t even let me touch you anymore?” Brad asked, looking wounded. “That beast Harvey, taking his own stepmother–he’ll pay for this someday!”
Serena laughed coldly and said, “And what about you? Having an affair with your own brother’s second wife–how are you any
better?”
Brad cried out, “No, I’m nothing like that monster Hatvey! He’s just using you, but my feelings are genuine. I’d do anything for you!”
Serena just sneered with contempt while Brad continued desperately, “If you don’t believe me, I’ll prove it! When I saw Harvey holding you earlier, I wanted to kill him on the spot!”
Serena retorted, “Oh, please. Look at yourself! You’re too old to compete with someone young like Harvey. Let me be honest–that one time with you was a mistake. I never had real feelings

for you, so stop pursuing me. If Harvey catches you, I won’t help you.”
“Serena, how can you be so cruel?” Brad asked, clutching his chest, his face ashen. “Do your really care for him that much?”
