Chapter 459 Campbell Family in Trouble
After going through the document, Colton didn’t comment further and just nodded. “I understand. You can leave first.”
Before Tony left, he glanced at Colton’s foot, which was still red. For some reason, he admired Nicole much, as she was the only one who had ever made Colton yield.
At this moment abroad, in Zachary’s office, Whitney placed the documents that she sorted out in front of him. Seeing his tired face, she said worriedly, “President Yates, you don’t have to work yourself so hard. Although you are now in control of the Yates Family, we can still get things going accordingly.”
Zachary was exhausted as he propped himself with one arm and pinched his nose slightly. When he heard her voice, he slowly opened his eyes and said hoarsely, “I’m fine. The reason I returned to Yates Family is to take matters into my own hands as soon as possible. Only when I am strong enough can I protect Nicole!”
Seeing that he was persistent, Whitney couldn’t help but sigh. He pushed himself so hard, all for Miss Nicole.
Just as she was going to say something else, her phone rang. When she saw that it was her father, her expression changed. Seeing that Zachary was still busy, she quietly slid out of the room, then answered the phone in a cold voice. “Is there something you want?” she asked.
“I need you to come back immediately,” Jonathan demanded straightforwardly with a stern voice.
Knowing why he called, Whitney paused, and her eyes flashed a glint of hurt. She pursed her lips and said, “I’m not going back. I told you before that I have nothing to do with the Campbell Family when you used my mother’s life to threaten me.”
It was nearly four years since she had left, and she had never wanted to return!
“Whitney! Don’t you forget that Aaron is still here. Are you sure you are going to stay out of it?” Jonathan snapped with an intimidating tone.
Being threatened by him, Whitney was furious. She gritted her teeth and decided to confront him. “He is your son! Jonathan, don’t you think you are so despicable for threatening me with your own son because there was no one you can use to force me now that my mother has left?”
Facing her confrontation, Jonathan finally softened his tone. “It’s not like I wanted to do this, Whitney, but there is some problem happening in the family. Please come home.”
There was no way she wanted to take part in the Campbell Family’s matter. Feeling her throat getting dry, Whitney closed her eyes and croaked out, “Four years ago, you threatened me with my mother’s life. That time, I told you never to find me, and I had nothing to do with the family anymore.”
Jonathan knew that she hated him because of Douglas, but this time, it was also Douglas that made them decide to let her return.
“Michael had used the family’s property to pay off his gambling debt. Now, they are here to take the company.” He paused for a moment before continuing, “I had someone to dig through this matter. It was Douglas behind all of this.”
When Whitney heard his name, she gripped her phone tightly as her heart wrenched. She didn’t know what to say.
Noticing that she went silent, Jonathan took the opportunity and said, “You must know that Aaron is here and also the company’s legal representative. He will also be in trouble if anything happens to the company!”
Anger flooded within Whitney, and she almost crushed her phone. Never did she expect that he would use Aaron’s identity as the legal representative. Jonathan was making sure that he would make it out safely if anything happened. This is just ridiculous!
She wondered how Jonathan could be this heartless when her mother had given birth to her and Aaron for him. He was so heartless that when her mother was seriously ill, he brought back a woman and a man older than her, saying that he was her half-brother!
