From Ashes of Scandals to His Embrace novel Chapter 239

“Bagot, do you even have a heart? Fabian calls you uncle. How can you talk about him like that? Don’t you care about him at all?” Finn yelled, desperately hoping he could get through to Bagot and convince him to let him go home. He was scared out of his mind. He knew exactly how brutal Bagot could be.

“Uncle? If you hadn’t brought that up, I almost would’ve forgotten everything Aileen did. You knew about her and Aiken, and you still sent that woman to my bed. Finn, you’re unbelievable.” Bagot’s voice was cold, his anger boiling over as he thought about all the humiliation Aileen had brought him. Not a single one of those kids was his. He hated her so much it hurt.

Aileen was locked up now, out of his reach. But Finn, the guy who had set it all in motion, was right there. He was an easy target.

Bagot got up from the couch and unleashed his anger, punching and kicking Finn without holding back. Every blow was payback for what Aileen had done.

Finn was in agony, curling up on the floor and begging for mercy. He honestly had no idea when Aileen and Aiken had started seeing each other. If Laurinda hadn’t caught them back then, he probably still wouldn’t know.

“Bagot, I swear I didn’t know about Aileen and Aiken. When I finally found out, I made them end it, I promise. Please, stop, you’re killing me.”

“Bagot, we’re on the same team. I have no reason to mess with you. Just let me go home. I’ll figure out the company stuff. I’ve got a fund from Frostfrod that can help us out. I promise I can turn things around. I’ll take the loss myself, and you’ll still get all your profits.”

Bagot finally stopped, looking at Finn’s battered face with a hint of satisfaction.

“You sure you can actually move that money?” Bagot crouched down in front of him, eyes narrowed. The Gates Family had nothing to do with that deal. He didn’t think Finn would really risk it.
