Chapter 349 Why?
After a moment’s silence, Asher spoke, “You know how well Timothy treats Jennifer. He’s definitely going to pursue this. There’s nothing I can do to stop him.”

“But I’ve been hurt so badly, and Jennifer only has a superficial injury!”
Sarah’s voice wavered in frustration. Why was the Clark family so protective of Jennifer?
Asher glanced at Sarah’s gruesome neck wound, and his face was filled with reluctance. “Just… focus on your recovery.”
“Asher, you’ll help me, won’t you? After all, I know I’m here at
Hargreaves Villa because you Hargreaves Villa because you took me in, out of compassion. You won’t abandon me, right?” Sarah’s eyes filled with anxiety.
Asher, though conflicted, reassured her, “Don’t worry. Since I was the one who brought you to Hargreaves Villa, I will take full responsibility for you.”
Though Asher said this, in his heart, he wasn’t sure if he would regret it later.
With a sigh, he left the room, feeling the weight of the situation. There seemed to be no easy solution.
After a moment of reflection, Asher decided to visit Dylan’s

room to see what he thought.

Given that Timothy was now publicly pressuring Hargreaves. Group, the company was in serious trouble.
If the Clark family didn’t relent, it would be nearly impossible for Hargreaves Group to weather this storm.
Asher wanted to get Dylan’s perspective and see if there was any way out.
As Asher reached Dylan’s room, he overheard Dylan’s furious voice. “Are you all idiots? I paid you all that money to handle my case, and you’re telling me there’s nothing you can do?”
“It’s not that we haven’t tried, but the Clark family has solid evidence. Even if it goes to court, the chances of us winning are very slim,” one lawyer replied cautiously.
“Exactly. So, it’s better to try to settle out of court. Otherwise, it will only hurt Hargreaves Group,” another lawyer added.
Dylan, completely enraged, barked, “Is there really nothing we can do? How the hell did he get this evidence? Are you all just a bunch of amateurs? How did we let him catch us off guard?”
Dylan couldn’t believe that Timothy had gone to such lengths to bring him down.
This was an important piece of evidence, and Dylan hadn’t even noticed it being gathered.

The realization hit him hard that Timothy was a master
strategist.

The room fell into silence. Despite his anger, Dylan knew the situation was out of his control. This had escalated far beyond what he had expected.
He had no idea just how much leverage Timothy had over him.
Hearing this, Asher walked into the room, looking directly at Dylan. “So, do you have any plan of action yet?”
Dylan glanced up at him. “What plan? Timothy must have collected this evidence over time. I never imagined he’d be so calculating.”
“If the Clark family were easy to deal with, they wouldn’t have come this far,” Asher responded, his tone pragmatic. “The real question is, how do you plan to resolve this?”
Dylan was livid. “You think I haven’t tried to find a solution? Timothy is clearly out to destroy us.”
Asher, now irritated, retorted, “So, now you understand the consequences? Did you ever consider the fallout when you were doing those mean things to Jennifer?”
Dylan was taken aback. “What happened that day was Mrs. Millie Clark’s doing, not mine! Why should Timothy come after me? If he has a problem, he should take it up with his own mother!”

He couldn’t believe how far the Clark family was willing to go.
Asher’s voice turned sharp. “Is that really the case? When you were at Kinglet Villa, didn’t you see how much Timothy cared. about Jennifer? Why repeat the same mistake?”
“Look, Asher. This wasn’t my doing,” Dylan argued, though his conviction was weakening.
Asher was trying to understand. “If we had cultivated a better relationship with Jennifer, the benefits would have been far greater than trying to suppress her.”
Asher couldn’t understand why Dylan had chosen this path.
When he had received the research lab report, he had been shocked.
Knowing how important Jennifer was to Timothy, what had Dylan hoped to gain by forcing Jennifer to apologize?
Dylan snapped, “But I’m her brother! She locked me up in a cage, treating me like a dog. Do I not have the right to make her apologize?”
To Dylan, Jennifer’s apology wasn’t just a request. It was something he felt she owed him.
