The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

She glared at her son beside her and continued, “And your father spends all his time drinking and enjoying himself, never around when we need him.

If he were here, we could have had some influence in that situation just now.

”

Tyshawn was already on edge.

He frowned and snapped, “Enough! I’m already irritated, Mom.

Can you please be quiet for a moment?”

Seeing Tyshawn’s bad attitude, Makenna was shocked for a second, then got angry.

“I worked hard to raise you for 20 years.

Now you’re grown up and talking to me like that?”

She glared at Tyshawn and said, “Believe me, I’ll beat you to death.

”

“Go ahead, beat me to death if you can.

” Tyshawn stared at her coldly.

“If you want to get nothing, just keep making a scene.

”

Makenna felt a pang of guilt and calmed down.

She looked at his face hesitantly and said, “I just… I’m just worried we won’t get anything if Franco dies.

”

Tyshawn lowered his voice, sounding sinister.

“It’d be better if he were dead.

Without him in control, even Bryson might not be able to manage everything.

Then, if I hit Bryson hard, it’s anyone’s guess who’ll come out on top.

”

He looked at his mother and pleaded, “Mom, I need you to do something for me.

You have to be careful.

If you mess this up, we’re going to be in serious trouble.

”

Makenna eyed her son suspiciously.

“What are you planning?”

As night fell, the city grew quiet, with only the neon lights still glowing.

Late at night in the hospital, the corridor lights flickered faintly.

Bryson stood guard outside the ICU, with several of his bodyguards posted outside the ward.

Even if someone got past the bodyguards, Bryson would still be able to detect anyone entering the room in time.

Around 3:00 a.

m.

, a sudden phone call rang out.

Bryson opened his eyes, but there was no trace of sleepiness in his cold gaze.

He picked up the phone and answered, “What’s up?”

“Mr.

Mitchell, the public relations department just discovered that foreign company stocks are fluctuating wildly.

It looks Like someone is intentionally manipulating the market.

”

Bryson lowered his head, his emotions hidden by the darkness in the room.

“This guy is manipulating the stock market now because he’s sure I don’t have the energy to monitor foreign markets.

”

He chuckled.

“In that case… There’s no need to hold back.

”

Yosef got the message and quickly said, “I Understand.

I’ll have our people take action right away and block their path.

”

“Okay,” Bryson replied.

After hanging up, he couldn’t get back to sleep.

He went to check on Franco in the ward and then stepped out.

The bodyguards outside had changed shifts.

When they saw Bryson come out, they immediately greeted him, “Mr.

Mitchell.

”

Bryson instructed, “Stay here and don’t let anyone in.

”

“Yes, Mr.

Mitchell,” they responded.
