Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 1120:

Lost in these thoughts, Connor was interrupted by Marc’s entrance.

“Mr. Daniels, Foley is here to see you. He insists it’s urgent.”

Connor hesitated briefly before responding, “Let him in.”

Foley walked in and bowed respectfully. “Good evening, Uncle Connor.” With a motion of his hand, Connor signaled for privacy, leaving them alone in the room. “What’s the matter?”

“Uncle Connor, please, I beg you to save me!” Foley suddenly dropped to his knees.

Connor observed him silently, showing no immediate reaction. Urgently, Foley continued, “Uncle, I must disclose something critical and ask for your protection.”

“Proceed.”

“Here’s what you need to know…”

Foley shared with Connor the full story of how Neil had killed his parents and sibling, revealing Neil’s ambitions and all the details surrounding his actions.

Connor had already conducted his own investigation and uncovered the details, so hearing the recount didn’t affect him deeply.

Unmoved, Connor listened as Foley continued, “There’s more I have to reveal, Uncle Connor…”

Connor’s eyes slowly rose to meet Foley’s as he spoke of a significant revelation.

Sadly, the big secret Foley unveiled was already known to Connor. “When my father carried out those terrible acts in the past, he had the help of a mysterious individual. Recently, he reached out to this person once again.”

Connor’s gaze dropped, showing little interest. “You’ve shared father’s darkest secrets and seek my protection. Does this mean you’ve chosen to stand against your father, Foley?”

Foley nodded solemnly. “Yes, Uncle Connor. My father has sacrificed even his closest family for his ambitions, including the parents who nurtured him. To him, I am merely a tool. I’ve come to see the truth. Previously, I was too afraid to oppose him, fearing a mysterious demise. But now, I’ve mustered the courage. I pledge my loyalty to you from this point forward, Uncle Connor, and will no longer be manipulated by my father.”

Despite being of similar age, the difference between Foley, kneeling, and Connor, seated with authority, was stark. Connor appeared regal, like a monarch surveying his domain, while Foley resembled a vanquished warrior.

Having declared his allegiance, Foley gazed at Connor, filled with hope, yet dreading dismissal.

Connor stayed silent for a long moment, then said with calm resolve, “I see. You may return now.”

Foley’s confusion was evident. “Uncle Connor, you…”

He struggled to decipher Connor’s response, uncertain if his loyalty had been accepted.

Connor refrained from elaborating, instead summoning Domenic.

“Escort Foley out,” he said.

“Understood, Mr. Daniels.”

As Domenic approached the still-kneeling Foley, he gently said, “Mr. Foley Daniels, please.”
