Chapter 170 Don’t Touch My Man!

• Therefore, Miles drafted a statement over the night before instructing the legal department to issue it. The statement warned the public of a possible prosecution regarding the defamation of his father using falsified claims. It was merely an official statement, so no answers regarding the matter were being given through it. Miles had yet to know that William was the one behind that. After all, he knew nothing regarding what happened twenty years ago, so he hadn’t yet been able to uncover the source of the rumors in such a short amount of time.
• However, he never expected his father, who was still in the faraway land of Canada, to tell him over the phone that all of the claims were true, and he was indeed the culprit behind the incident. Although the media painted him as a villain, they weren’t making false claims. Elliot even told him to withdraw the statement. Initially, Miles didn’t agree with it, as withdrawing the statement would equate to trashing the empire and fame that his father spent his life cultivating.
• “Miles, I know how you feel, but you don’t understand the pain of having to run away from my own crimes. Ever since I came to Canada, my conscience has been eating away at me. I might not be a fitting villain after all. Ryder died in depression, and your mother also lost her life because of me. I’ve been traumatized ever since, so please give me a chance to atone for my sins, okay?”
