The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 587

Upon hearing this, Hackett's attitude softened. He hadn't expected this to be Fitch's plan. Compared to others, Fitch's apology could be considered incredibly sincere.

Hackett felt guilty for his previous suspicions about Fitch. He really had thought that Fitch, like his son suddenly did, was coveting the Sloan Group.

Striking while the iron was hot, Fitch apologized to Hackett once more. "Hackett, we've known each other for so many years. When have I ever lied to you? It's true that my boy, Milford, was out of line this time. As his father, I have to find a way to make amends. I know nothing I do can make up for the harm done to Tamara, but at the very least, it's a token of our sincerity."

Hackett's expression gradually relaxed. "Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course I am," Fitch said, taking a step forward with an even more earnest tone. "To be honest, the Sherwood Group is developing quite well right now. There's really no need for me to scheme against you. This time, I simply couldn't stand by and watch someone try to harm the Sloan Group, so I stepped in to help."

Hackett's eyes flickered as the doubts in his heart slowly dissipated. Recalling Fitch's performance during the meeting earlier, and thinking about the years of friendship between their two families, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt for his recent suspicions.

"Fitch," Hackett said, his tone softening. "I overthought it. There's been so much going on lately, my mind is a bit muddled."

Fitch quickly waved his hand. "You're being too hard on yourself. If I were in your shoes, I might have reacted even more strongly. Ultimately, it's our family that wronged Tamara."

He paused, his expression genuine. "Once Tamara is feeling better, I will definitely bring Milford over to formally apologize. By then, the stock settlement should be just about finished, and I'll transfer everything over to you at once."

This well-coordinated combination of reassurances completely dispelled Hackett's suspicions, making him let go of holding Fitch accountable for Tamara's situation.

At the same time, Fitch's attitude made Hackett feel even more guilty and uneasy. He sighed, "I misunderstood you. If it weren't for your constant support over the years, the Sloan Group wouldn't have grown so smoothly."
