A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 181

"Dad, we're not going to charge at her like unreasonable people. We're just going to talk to her and understand the situation in more detail." Wilson, who had been silent, frowned and spoke up.

"Do you think I don't know what you're all thinking? You're going to go and pressure Ms. Demi to do what you want, right?

"Oh, right. Yesterday, I asked you to apologize to Ms. Demi in person. If you go, just apologize to her properly, and don't say anything else!" Benedict ordered with a stern expression.

Wilson's younger siblings exclaimed in surprise, "You asked Wilson to apologize to her? Why should he?"

"Isn't it because he was showing off his authority in front of Ms. Demi?" Benedict asked, somewhat displeased. "Wilson, I've already told you to change your temper! Don't treat everyone as your subordinate! You just won't change, huh?

"If you weren't my son, do you think you could've made it this far with that temper of yours? Now that I'm old and you're almost retired, I was planning to stop interfering. But when you use your authority to pressure my lifesaver, I have no choice but to step in!"

"Dad, everyone has their own temper that can't be changed. Didn't you also say that our bad tempers were inherited from you?" Caron joked with a smile.

He hoped to lighten the mood and ease the tension while also helping Wilson out.

"So, now you're blaming me?" Benedict snorted coldly.

"Alright, Dad. How about you call Ms. Demi and ask her to come over? We'll talk to her," suggested Benson West, Benedict's third son.

Upon hearing this, Benedict widened his eyes, and he said discontentedly, "Who do you think Demi is? Do you think you can summon her whenever you want? Is this how you treat your father's lifesaver? Ms. Demi saved me twice—shouldn't you be the ones visiting her with gifts?"
