Chapter 0046 Chapter 0046 Desmond stepped in, saying, "Mr. Wright and Mr. Claude are not close." Julian scoffed, refusing to believe it.
"Not close? Dylan Wright, you've always been a man of profit, never doing anything that doesn't serve your own interests. You may act like you're helping Claude, but in reality, it's all for yourself.

Your plan is flawless!" Dylan didn't bother defending himself. Instead, he calmly asked Matthew, "Mr. Matthew, is that what you believe as well?" His expression and tone were composed, but Matthew, who knew Dylan well, recognized this as a sign of his true anger.
Matthew walked over and yanked Julian aside, delivering a sharp slap across his face. "You ungrateful fool! All these years, I've trusted you without question, never doubting you for a second, and this is what you are a snake with nothing but selfish ambition." "Dad, please don't listen to these lies- "Shut up!" Matthew barked before turning to the butler. "Lock him up!" In the Harlow family's garden, Claude sat across from Dylan and personally poured him a cup of tea. With a curious look, he finally voiced the question that had been weighing on his mind. "I have to ask, why did you help me?" Before now, Claude and Dylan had no real connection, and he couldn't figure out why Dylan would go out of his way to help him. Could Julian have been right after all? Dylan sipped his tea, then met Claude's gaze and asked, "Do you really think you're no match for me?" Claude paused for a moment, then chuckled. "Well, in that case, I'll have to find an opportunity to test that out." "Anytime," Dylan replied with a faint smile.
The truth was that Dylan had always admired Claude. Despite his physical limitations, he was strong-willed and highly capable.
Without much hesitation, Dylan revealed the truth. "Actually, I'm helping on behalf of someone else." Chapter 0046 "Could you tellwho?" Claude asked, intrigued. "I should know who my real benefactor is so I can thank them properly if I ever get the chance." Dylan's eyes locked onto Claude's, and he spoke softly, “Red Falcon." Claude's expression shifted for a brief moment as if he'd expected it. No one else would this far for him but Suzy. He quickly masked his reaction, pretending to be confused. "Red Falcon?" The relationship between Suzy and Claude couldn't be known by anyone-not for any other reason but to protect her true identity.
"You don't know her?" Dylan asked with a hint of amusement in his voice.
"No, I don't." "Heh....." Dylan chuckled. "That's interesting-someone you've never met going to such lengths to help you." go "Exactly. If the chance ever comes, I'd appreciate an introduction so I can ask her face-to-face how I managed to earn such favor."

Claude smiled. “I'm not in a position to see you out, but take care, Mr. Wright." As soon as Dylan left, Claude reached for his phone, ready to call Suzy. But before he could dial her number, he felt a tap on his shoulder.
He didn't need to look up to know who it was he already recognized her presence. Turning his head, he saw Suzy standing right there.
A warm smile instantly spread across Claude's lips. "When did you get here?"
Suzy pulled a chair over and sat across from him. "I was planning to swoop in like you did back when we were kids-rescue the hero, you know. But someone beatto it.'
Honestly, she hadn't expected Dylan to step in and clean up for Claude She'd thought he suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Dylan circling back unexpectedly. Chapter 0047 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
