---- Chapter 752 Khloe had intended to reason with Oscar calmly, but she hadn't expected him to leave no room for discussion from the start. She could only straighten her expression and reply firmly, "Uncle Oscar, | know you've always had high hopes for Michael. But even if he made the wrong choice, you don't have the right to decide his life for him." Oscar scoffed. "Khloe, are you trying to lecture me on how to live?" "| don't mean it that way," Khloe said evenly. "But since you and Michael made an agreement, then he should be allowed to leave the Morrison family openly and with dignity.
If he can no longer enjoy the benefits of the Morrison family, then he shouldn't be held back by it either. That wouldn't be fair." "Fair?" Oscar let out a laugh of disbelief. "He's enjoyed privileges his entire life that ordinary people could never dream of, and now you want to talk to me about fairness? On what grounds?" 1 The more he spoke, the more ridiculous it sounded. Seeing that the conversation was going nowhere, Khloe didn't want to waste any more breath. "Uncle Oscar, | originally wanted to persuade you properly," she ---- said.
"But since we clearly can't see eye to eye, there's no point continuing. Michael's appointment was my decision alone. It has nothing to do with him. Even if it doesn't comply with internal procedures, |'ll take full responsibility. You don't need to concern yourself with it." Khloe knew that if Oscar insisted on pushing the issue, she would face tremendous pressure within the company's internal processes. But she didn't care. Even if it meant offending Oscar-or the entire Morrison family-it no longer mattered to her. At that moment, Michael burst into the office.

The moment he heard that Oscar and Khloe were arguing because of him, he rushed over immediately. When Michael arrived, Winnie was standing outside the door as well. She had originally wanted to go in and apologize to Oscar, but she hadn't been able to gather the courage. When she saw Michael arrive, she feared he might act impulsively and instinctively grabbed his arm. When Charlotte had first suggested that Michael join Morrison Group, Winnie had already anticipated this day. But she couldn't bear to watch Michael struggle alone outside.
So when Michael later discussed coming to Morrison Group with her, she supported the idea without hesitation. ---- Now, thinking about it, she realized how naive she had been. Michael glanced at Winnie but said nothing. He simply brushed past her and walked inside. The moment Oscar saw Michael enter, a ripple passed through his eyes. In the past, whenever father and son argued, their quarrels never lasted overnight. No matter who was at fault, Michael would always be the first to lower his head and apologize. But this time was different.
After so many days, the only thing Michael had shown was absolute resolve. He was truly willing to sever his father-son relationship... all for the sake of a woman. Khloe felt a surge of worry when she saw Michael, afraid he might do something rash. She quickly walked to his side. But before she could speak, Michael had already stepped forward and stopped in front of Oscar. The employee badge for Morrison Group slipped from his hand and landed on the desk "There's no need to make things difficult," he said calmly. "| won't take back what I've said.
Even if there's no place for me in Goldmont City, I'll take responsibility for my choice." ---- When Michael removed his badge in front of everyone, Winnie felt the blood rush to her head. Acting on impulse, she hurried forward and rushed to stand before Oscar. "This is all my fault! Please don't take your anger out on Michael. The person he respects most is you. These past few days, he's really been suffering..." It might have been better if Winnie hadn't appeared at all. The moment she did, Oscar's anger flared even higher. "Suffering?" he snapped.
"I think ever since you bewitched him, he's forgotten he even has a family and parents. How could he possibly feel any suffering?" "That's not true..." Winnie tried to explain on Michael's behalf, but Michael stopped her. He glanced at Khloe, whose expression had turned distant and heavy with emotion. Then he bowed to Oscar. He was ready to take Winnie and leave. But Winnie stubbornly refused to go. She shook off Michael's hand and once again ran back to Oscar, unwilling to give up. "| truly love Michael. | know | made many mistakes in the past, ---- but I'm willing to change and start over.
| know Michael loves me wholeheartedly-I really don't want to betray that!"
