Chapter 901

In Blumedale, the Rhodes family's patriarch was pacing inside his

villa, furious and restless. "Damn it! It's been a whole day already -

did that bastard Phantom Eye take the money and run?"

No calls were going through, and no one could reach him.

At first, Kenny was confident in Phantom Eye. However, as time

passed, that confidence turned into gnawing anxiety. Every second

wasted meant Michael was one step closer to death.

"Dad, calm down," a woman said smoothly, her voice carrying an

air of superiority. "Michael will be fine."

She was Sherilyn Rhodes, Kenny's eldest daughter. Her presence

alone screamed wealth and power-long, deep-red nails, bold red

lips, and cascading waves of glossy hair. From head to toe, she

radiated the energy of a woman who knew she was above everyone

else.

Kenny gritted his teeth. "How the hell am I supposed to calm

down? You didn't see how bad Michael looked! He's barely holding

on! And from what I heard, h-hhe might have lost his manhood.

Do you understand what that means?!""

Sherilyn had just set her coffee down when she heard that. Her

brow arched sharply, and her voice turned venomous.

She snapped, "What?! Are you telling me that little bastard Andrew

actually went for Michael's manhood?"

Kenny's expression darkened. "Why the hell do you think I'm so

worked up? Your mother and I aren't young anymore. We can't

----

have more kids! If Michael is ruined, then what happens to my

legacy?

"My business is booming, I'm at the peak of my life, and now I

might not even have an heir to pass it on to?"

'The more he spoke, the angrier he got, until he finally lost it and

started shouting.

Sherilyn clenched her jaw. "Dad, don't worry!"

"If Michael really lost his manhood, I swear I'll have Andrew's

head on a platter for you."

Kenny sneered. "That little bastard wouldn't have dared to go this

far unless he was trying to impress that damn Jameson's daughter.

I'm sure she and her parents put Andrew up to this. But I won't let

them get away with it!"

Sherilyn's lips curled in distaste. "You're talking about Lauren,

right?"

Kenny scoffed. "Who else? That wretched girl is nothing but

trouble."

Sherilyn frowned. "But I thought Uncle Jameson's family was

arranging a marriage with the Driscoll family? If that's true, what

the hell is Lauren doing messing around with another man?"

Kenny sighed in frustration. "I don't know if they've actually done

anything. Since it involves the Driscolls, we have to be careful what

we say. We need to get Michael back and hear it from him before

we make any moves."

Sherilyn's expression twisted into something bitter, her voice

----

laced with jealousy. "I don't get it-what does the Driscoll family

even see in that girl?"

She huffed and added, "I'm the eldest daughter of the Rhodes

family. If anyone from the Driscolls was looking for a high-status

woman to marty, it should have been me."

Kenny's face hardened. "Sherilyn, watch your mouth. You're

already married! You need to stop saying things like that! Besides,

didn't you already land Elon? That alone is a blessing our family

should be grateful for!"

Sherilyn rolled her eyes. "Sure, Elon is one of the elites from a big-

name family, but compared to the Driscolls? He's not even close."

She smirked. "Honestly, Dad, if one of the Driscoll boys wanted

me, I wouldn't mind getting remarried."

Kenny's face turned red with anger. "Are you serious, Sherilyn?!

You just can't change your damn ways, can you? You're already

married into the Goldings-act like it! Focus on your family

instead of running around chasing fantasies!"

Sherilyn laughed shamelessly. "Relax, Dad! I'm just thinking out

loud. The Driscolls are one of the three powerhouses in Gabo

Creek, but let's be real-I wouldn't actually get that lucky. That's

what pisses me off! How the hell does a nobody like Lauren get the

Driscolls' attention?"

Kenny let out a cold laugh. "Jameson and Tiana sure think they're

playing their cards right. But getting into the Driscoll family?

'That's not something you can just walk into. Even if Lauren does

manage to hook a Driscoll son, I won't let them get away with it."
