Chapter 395 - 395: Thomas1 Plan
Thomas saw that Connor did not speak for a long time, so he could not help but say his name.
“You don’t have to persuade me. I’m not interested in Stephanie. I only have Freya in my heart now!” Connor interrupted Thomas and continued, “Moreover, I think that even if Stephanie bears my child, she won’t easily yield to me. If I do that, she might hate me even more. If she stabs me behind my back, I might not know how I died!”
“Mr. McDonald, those who achieve great things do not care about trifles!” Seeing that Connor rejected his idea directly, he continued, “I admit that even if Stephanie bears your child, she might not necessarily be on our side. But there’s no harm in trying, right? Besides, how would you know if you don’t try?”
“How do you know there are no hidden edges?” Connor whispered to Thomas.
“Isn’t the worst outcome of this just you having sex? Even if Stephanie wouldn’t side with us in the future, I can’t think of any disadvantages at all!” Thomas replied.
“If Freya finds out about my relationship with Stephanie, what should 1 do? I don’t want to have any more conflicts with Freya now!” Connor said, his eyes widened.
Seeing Connor’s emotional state, he sighed helplessly and said, “Mr. McDonald, 1 think you might not have figured out your situation yet!”
“My situation?” Connor was stunned and asked.
“First of all, the biggest enemy standing before you isn’t the people from Rockefeller. After all, Rockefeller has no intention of making a move on you. Once Rockefeller realizes your growth, they will make a move on you! The biggest enemy now is the Lee Family. The Lee Family has been watching you and wants to take away the former chairman’s inheritance from you. Moreover, you should be very clear about the Lee Family’s style of doing things. Before these two enemies, not to mention taking back Rockefeller, it will be a problem whether you can successfully inherit the inheritance in the end. Therefore, 1 think if you are still so soft-hearted, let alone inheriting the inheritance, you might not even be able to protect Ms. Phillips in the end, do you know that?” Thomas said to Connor solemnly.
Connor looked at Thomas and was shocked.
“But if you can successfully control Stephanie, once there is any movement on the Lee Family’s side, we will be the first to know. This way, we can prevent it from happening before it happens, and it is equivalent to setting up a protective barrier for ourselves. We can also put all our energy on how to deal with those people from Rockefeller!”
Thomas paused, then looked at Connor and continued, “1 know that you’ve been worried about Ms. Phillips, but I’m not asking you to really fall in love with Stephanie, nor am I asking you to marry Stephanie. I just want Stephanie to bear your child. This way, we’ll have a way to control Stephanie. If Stephanie is still unwilling to be on our side after the child, we can use the child to threaten Stephanie. They will definitely not trust Stephanie anymore. By then, Stephanie can only be on our side!”
After hearing Thomas’s idea, Connor was shocked.
He finally realized that Thomas wanting Stephanie to bear a child for him was not his whim. It was something that he had considered for a long time!
All of this was Thomas’s plan.
Although Connor did not want to have sex with Stephanie, he felt that Thomas was being very reasonable, so he did not know what to do now.
“Phew…”
Connor took a deep breath and said, “I can’t give you an answer to what you’ve said yet. I’ll think about it when I get back…”
“Good!” Thomas saw Connor seemed to have eased up a little, so he quickly nodded.
Connor looked up at Thomas, stood up, and walked out of the office.
Thomas watched as Connor walked into the elevator. When the elevator door slowly closed, Thomas sighed helplessly.
“Mr. McDonald, I know that these things may be difficult for you to accept, but if you really want to take back Rockefeller, this is only the beginning. The things you need to face in the future are not something that these can compare to!”
After saying this, Thomas turned around and returned to his office.

When Connor left the Empire World Building, it was already nine o’clock at night.
The city at night was full of tall buildings and a bustling scene.
Connor was walking aimlessly on the street. What happened today was too shocking for Connor, so shocking that he couldn’t completely digest it.
He originally thought that inheriting Steven’s inheritance was a delightful thing. After all, as long as it was a normal person, they should be pleased to get a windfall of ten trillion dollars.
However, Connor was not happy because he had only discovered today that so many things were hidden behind this wealth.
How should he deal with the Lee Family? How could he get Rockefeller back? Also, what did his parents’ death have to do with Rockefeller? How should he explain it to Freya?
This series of questions surfaced in Connor’s mind. Connor had no clue at all.
Moreover, there was another important question: should he have a child with Stephanie?
Connor thought about how to deal with Stephanie as he walked aimlessly on the street.
Unknowingly, Connor roamed on the street for nearly an hour.
In the end, he found that he had returned to the neighborhood he had rented before. Perhaps in Connor’s subconscious mind, that room less than ten square meters was his real home, and the villa he bought was extremely unfamiliar as if it did not belong to him at all.
Connor stood at the bottom of the building and smiled bitterly. Then, he sighed softly, “Perhaps I’m still a loser.. I have come home without realizing it…”
