Chapter 59 I Want Them Dead
Upon realizing that Finnegan was the troublemaker, Winston quickly decided that the former had to be
satisfied no matter what.
Winston quickly dismissed those who were unimportant before ordering Felix to get Dexter and his
sister to come over.
After that, he had his b*dyguards question Xandra.
As she was nothing more than a gold digger, she obviously didn’t have the courage to hide the truth.
After she spilled the beans on Dexter and his sister’s plan, she dropped to her knees and prostrated in
front of Winston.
“Old Mr. Haimowitz, I have nothing to do with this. In fact, I’m a victim too!”
The truth infuriated Winston.
Aren’t they just destroying the Haimowitz family’s relationship with Finnegan?
In a fit of rage, he whacked Xandra with his walking stick. “You might not be the mastermind, but you’re
clearly complicit in this and deserve to be punished!”
“Grandpa, they’re here.”
Felix had arrived from the sales department.
After pushing Xandra aside with his cane, Winston replied with a solemn expression. “Let them enter.”
Felix yelled at the door. “Come in!”
When they first learned that Winston wanted to see them, Dexter and Amelia were actually delighted.
Nonetheless, the siblings were dumbfounded by the sight of the gruesomely beaten Larry and the
pathetic-looking Xandra. Upon noticing Finnegan standing by their side with a scowl on his face, the
two of them froze as if they had been struck by lightning.
What’s going on? Have we been exposed?
Winston raised his cane in an attempt to strike the siblings. “How dare you conduct such unscrupulous
business within the confines of Pentariver Group?”
r
After being hit, the siblings quickly realized that they had been found out. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Dexter quickly held Amelia’s hand as both of them dropped to their knees. “Old Mr. Haimowitz, this has
nothing to do with us. We just recommended some students to have their internship here. It was Mr.
Zane. He forced me to do it by threatening to fire me if I
didn’t.”
Now that Larry was unconscious and unable to defend himself, Dexter used the opportunity to shift the
blame to the former.
Together with her brother, Amelia pleaded for mercy. “That’s right. It was Mr. Zane all along Not only did
he threaten my brother, but he also forced my cla*smate and me to spend two days with him. If we
disobeyed, he would fire my brother and end our internship at Pentariver Group.”
If Winston hadn’t heard the truth from Xandra earlier, he would have bought their story.
Unfortunately, their lies further outraged him and increased his disdain for them. After that, Winston
bowed to Finnegan. “Mr. Larkin, the lapses of our company has caused your sister to be hurt. However
you want to remedy this, I, Winston Haimowitz, will cooperate unconditionally.”
Jolted by Winston’s response, the siblings turn to look at Finnegan.
Isn’t he just a lunatic who pretended to be rich with the eviction compensation? Why is Old Mr.
Haimowitz showing him so much respect, to the extent of addressing him so politely?
The siblings just couldn’t make sense of it, yet it wasn’t lost upon them that their fate lay in Finnegan’s
hands. Amelia quickly turned toward Finnegan and bowed in apology. “Finnegan, this was all Mr.
Zane’s idea. We were forced into it by him. Also, I’m Rhia’s dormmate and cla*smate, so please, show
us some mercy.”
Despite his reluctance to beg, Dexter had no choice but to follow suit. “Finnegan, we lost our senses for
some reason. Please forgive us this one time.”
Nonetheless, Finnegan couldn’t be bothered and didn’t even spare them a pitiful glance.
Upon walking past Winston, he declared in a piercing tone, “I want them dead!”
With that, he walked out of the room.
Pissing themselves in fear, Dexter and Amelia wailed, “Finnegan, no!”
Thereafter, the terrified Dexter turned around and hugged Jessica’s thigh. “Darling, help me beg for
mercy from Old Mr. Haimowitz, hurry!”
At that moment, Jessica racked her brain on how to sever all ties with him.

Surprised by Dexter’s attempt to get her involved, Jessica kicked him furiously. “You should bear the
consequences of your own actions and not drag me into it. Besides, both of you deserve this for doing
something like that behind my back!”
She then frantically explained to Winston, “Old Mr. Haimowitz, I might be in a relationship. with Dexter,
but I know nothing of this!”
A flurry of emotions flashed across Winston’s face before he turned around. “Cadmus, since you’ll be
taking over Pentariver Group soon, I’ll let you deal with this. Make sure Mr. Larkin is satisfied with the
solution.”
His words filled Dexter and the rest with despair.
Back in the chairman’s office, Winston and the others stood nervously by the side as Finnegan gave
Rhiannon treatment.
He discovered that Rhiannon had lost her ability to think clearly after being drugged. Hence, he
knocked her out before bringing her up to the chairman’s office for treatment. At the same time, he
regretted not teaching Dexter and Amelia a lesson before they were sent to their deaths.
Not only did they ensnare Rhiannon, but they also dared to use such a potent drug on her.
After treating Rhiannon for some time, Finnegan finally cleared her b*dy of the drug’s effects. In spite of
that, he didn’t wake her for the time being.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Larkin.”
When he saw that Finnegan was done, Winston spoke in an apologetic tone. “Please forgive me for the
indiscretion of my staff.” After a brief pause, he added, “Also, if Ms. Larkin is still keen on working in
Pentariver Group, I’ll appoint her as Felix’s secretary.”
Finnegan threw Winston an icy glance. “I know what you’re up to, but your grandson isn’t worthy of my
sister.”
Although Winston appeared to be making things right, the underlying intentions he harbored weren’t
lost upon Finnegan. He had hoped to get her on his side by planting her close to his grandson.
Having his intentions unexpectedly revealed, the panicking Winston apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Larkin.”
Upon retracting his gaze, Finnegan sat beside Rhiannon and stroke her hair sympathetically.
Soon, Cadmus returned to the office.
When Winston gave him a knowing look, he quickly understood and came forward to
report, “Mr. Larkin, the Rogan siblings, Xandra, and Larry have died in an accident that left no trace of
their bodies. As for Jessica, who was oblivious to the plan, I’ve fired her and ordered her to leave
Jadeborough for the time being.”
“That’s not enough!”
Hmm?
Winston was momentarily stunned before coming forward to ask, “We await your further instructions,
Mr. Larkin.
A cold glint flashed across Finnegan’s eyes. “When a child does wrong, the parents are at fault. After
what they have done, their parents can’t be much better than them given what they have done.
Besides, they will be cause for trouble if we don’t root out every single one of them.”
Is he suggesting we ma*sacre the entire family?
Even though he had seen how brutal Finnegan could be, Winston realized then that he had
underestimated the latter’s brutality.
Nevertheless, Winston nodded upon recovering from his shock. “Benjamin, I’ll leave this with you.
“Understood!”
Confident that the Haimowitz family would deal with the matter appropriately, Finnegant gently tapped
on the spot between Rhiannon’s eyebrows, causing her to gradually open her
eyes.
Rhiannon, upon recovering from the momentary grogginess, quickly sat up and hugged Finnegan the
moment she saw him. “Finn, is everything all right?”
Amidst everyone’s astonished gazes, Finnegan looked as if he had transformed into an entirely
different person-a loving brother. He broke into a gentle smile. “Everything is fine. Old Mr. Haimowitz
has learned of what happened and resolved the matter accordingly.”
Turning around, he gave Winston a thoughtful look. “Isn’t that right, Old Mr. Haimowitz?”
