Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1032 Never Admitting Mistakes

The James family was fully prepared and ready to act.

At the villa, Nick saw the news in the basement and was furious. "That bastard Micah, how dare he do this to me?"

"Ms. Clemens, please calm down," Silas advised in a deep voice. "Mr. Micah Clemens was forced into this. If he didn't do it, VIC Group and the entire Clemens Group would be in trouble."

"Then he should have suppressed the public opinion first and then dealt with the James Group." Nick fumed. "Only incompetent people push the blame onto their family."

"Wasn't it you who pushed the blame onto him first?" An elderly yet authoritative voice came through.

Nick shuddered slightly, turned her head, and looked at the aged Raymond, feeling a bit flustered inside.

Ethan limped as he wheeled Raymond into the basement, shooting Nick a resentful glance before quickly lowering his head.

"Dad, I never intended to fight with Micah; he provoked me first," Nick explained softly. "If he hadn't gone after Alan first, I wouldn't have touched him."

"Stop making excuses. Do you really think I'm a fool?" Raymond said coldly, "Micah may not get along with you, but he has a good relationship with Alan. Even if he did make a move on Alan, it would have been just a beating. But you escalated it to another level. Weren't you just using this as an excuse to seize power?"

"I..." Nick wanted to argue, but seeing Raymond's sharp gaze, she gave up.

She knew that Raymond was the person who understood her the most in this world. Her thoughts and intentions couldn't escape his eyes, and arguing more would only make her seem insincere.

However, even though she had made many mistakes, Raymond would still save her.

That's blood ties!

"You failed in business and squandered the family fortune. Instead of thinking about how to manage it, you always wanted to seize your nephew Micah's inheritance. Is this what an aunt should do?" Raymond scolded.

"If you hadn't been biased and left ninety percent of the fortune to him, I wouldn't have ended up like this," Nick retorted. "I failed in business because of a lack of funds, not because of my ability."

"You're still making excuses for yourself." Raymond's face turned livid with anger, and he struck her leg with his cane.

"I gave Micah less funding than you, yet he used his ability to establish VIC Group. Now he manages the Clemens Group in an orderly manner. He achieved results first and passed the test, which is why I chose him as the heir!"

"You would say that of course," Nick muttered defiantly. "I don't believe that without your help, a young man with no experience could achieve this."

"You... you are truly incorrigible!" Raymond was almost beside himself with fury. He realized that reasoning with Nick now was like preaching to the wrong audience. She wouldn't reflect or understand. No wonder her life turned out this way. "Those are all in the past. Let's focus on the present." Nick changed the subject anxiously. "Dad, you saw it. Micah is colluding with the James family to capture me. They want to kill me. You can't just stand by and do nothing!" "I've arranged a refuge for you in Verdania. You should go there first and lay low. Once no one is paying attention to this matter, I'll have someone send you elsewhere."

"Verdania?" Nick got angry at the mention of it. "I don't want to go to Verdania, Dad. I can't stand that hellhole."

"It's precisely because I know you can't stand it that no one will find you there," Raymond said decisively. "With the James family's influence, they could find you no matter where you hide. Besides, the police are also after you now." "Isn't all of this Micah's doing?" Nick grew even angrier. "He dared to have the company remove me and took back my shares. He even suspended Alan. And he must have handed my criminal evidence to the police. He just wants to drive me to death!"
