Chapter 499 Victor Is Also Here

Author: Jenny Drake
Cedric stole a glance at the pure Sophia, who wore a sincere expression on her face.

While Faye had mentioned her cousin before, the impression wasn't profound. He only knew that their relationship seemed amicable.

Nodding slightly, he smiled gently and encouraged. "Do your best."

Sophia immediately beamed, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Cedric. However, he had already shifted his gaze, giving a cold glance at the media reporters nearby.

The reporters avoided Cedric's gaze, but the earlier conversations indicated his influence in Jeorgia, a representation of the influence of the Shaw family.

Under his icy and sharp gaze, reporters felt a tingling sensation on their scalps. Some timid ones struggled to stand and supported themselves by the wall, fearing they might collapse.

They regretted waiting for the surgery results, but the potential headline of a failed surgery intrigued them.

The prospect of a headline like "Dr. Connor's First Surgery Failure" or "Jeorgia Shaw Fam

    Faye changed into a fresh set of clothes before entering a modest waiting room where her family eagerly awaited her return. Everyone else was present except for Harlem and Sophia, who had accompanied Gloria to the ward for some rest."Darling, you're incredible!" Layla exclaimed excitedly, reaching out to envelop Faye in a warm embrace. Faye gracefully crouched down, hugged her mother, and chuckled. "It's all thanks to you introducing me to the world of medicine."Certainly, Layla's past as an exceptional doctor had left an indelible mark on Faye. From an early age, she absorbed various medical principles from Layla and later expanded her knowledge with Benjamin, laying a robust foundation for her future medical endeavors. Naturally, Faye's exceptional intelligence and excellence were helpful as well.Since childhood, she possessed an almost photographic memory, absorbing knowledge rapidly and extrapolating from it. Her extraordinary talent facilitated swift progress in me

    On the way home, Faye leaned back in her chair and asked, "How did you handle those people from the Brown family?"Cedric raised an eyebrow. "I had them spend a couple of days in the police station. If you're unsatisfied with that, should I give them more trouble?"Faye chuckled. "There's no need to dirty our hands. The Brown family is insatiable, and we should just let them fight amongst themselves."Cedric raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"Faye's gaze deepened. "Do you know why I was with Mr. Victor when my mother was kidnapped?"Cedric paused for a moment and realized that he was indeed unaware of this."That day, Mr. Victor was approached by Clint and Lizzie. The couple deliberately told him many scandals about my mother for money. They mixed the truth with lies, and Mr. Victor couldn't distinguish the two at that point. He was so infuriated that he came close to dying."At that time, Victor was truly on the brink of life-threatening danger. Fortunately, Faye arrived in time."Is th

    Clint's words caused Tracy, who was applying makeup, to pause. She sneered. "Dad, I haven't officially started a relationship with Mr. Garcia yet. It won't be appropriate to make such demands now.""Yet you dress up every day and go out on dates? You even stayed out all night from time to time." Clint's expression darkened, his tone unpleasant."Dad ..." Tracy finished applying her lipstick and stood up, holding her purse. As she turned, her alluring features were revealed. She wore a tight-fitting strapless dress that accentuated her graceful figure. Overall, she looked charming and enticing.She smiled. "Nothing comes without effort. Going out every day, dating, and feigning joy and intoxication are initial investments. Why would someone spend money on me or invest in me otherwise? If you want him to arrange projects for you, that's not a problem. But he needs to become your son-in-law first, right? "Before that, I need to gain his favor. Do you really think running a business

    "How will you correct yourself?" Faye said mockingly. Clint was enraged by her tone. Was Faye challenging him?However, recalling his intention, he could only swallow his pride. "Faye, I know how horrible I've been. When will you come back to Jorn City? I have some money, and I want to give it to you when you return. Think of it as a form of compensation."Clint was giving out money now? Interesting. He must be really desperate. Faye pursed her lips. "Sure, I'll be heading back three days from now.""Great, what time are you landing? I will pick you up at the airport …" Clint said excitedly. Faye gave him the time of her flight and hung up.In the evening, Cedric returned home, and Faye asked, "Are you executing your plan already?"He pinched her cheek and chuckled. "This is just the beginning. Why? The Browns are getting nervous already?"Faye briefly explained that Clint wanted to give her money for compensation. Cedric scoffed. "There's definitely an ulterior motive.

    Faye raised her gaze and found her car surrounded by six men of varying heights. There were four in the front and two in the back. They were all brandishing guns and pointing them at Faye. They wore black stockings over their faces, looking sinister and terrifying. However, Faye couldn't help but find it amusing. She obediently raised her hands and looked around, feigning panic. "Open the door and get out!" The man outside the driver's seat was tall and imposing. He forcefully kicked at the car door, his voice rough and menacing. When Faye remained still, the man kicked the car door harshly again. "Get out, do you hear me? Get out right now."Faye obediently reached for her seatbelt, but as her hand moved, the man nervously tightened his grip on the gun. "Don't play tricks on me. Hands up and get out. Get out!" Amused, Faye wondered if these people were here to entertain her.She innocently raised her hands again, looking warily at the people outside. "How am I supposed to

    There was another?Faye froze in place. Cedric lay on the ground, and her heart started pounding violently. He must have known all along. Was that the reason he insisted on her getting into the car?Faye's eyes reddened. She wanted to approach Cedric, but he stopped her. "Faye, don't come over."Faye pursed her lips. "How much time do we have?""These two are connected. After the first one is disarmed, it will trigger the second one." Cedric's voice remained calm, devoid of any emotion. He turned his head, looking sharply at Faye. "Babe, listen to me! Get in the car and drive away from here immediately.""Tell me how much time we have right now!" Faye stubbornly stared at Cedric, her expression equally determined.Cedric felt helpless. Holding a bomb in one hand and scissors in the other, he said, "One minute and 30 seconds, but it's different from the one before. It's not a simple setting. It's a complex dual-layered setting. I don't want you to take any risk. Faye, trust me a

    Jesse couldn't help but laugh when he heard Cedric's question to Faye. Did Cedric not even know who his wife was? Jesse recognized her at a glance. It seemed like he could use this to mock Cedric in the future. Smirking, Jesse signaled his subordinates to clean up the sprawled figures on the ground. He then quickly walked to Faye's car and took out a detector.To his relief, he didn't detect any other bombs in the car, but he discovered that the brakes had been tampered with. Jesse's expression darkened at the realization of how ruthless the culprit was. He hoped this person wouldn't fall into Cedric's hands, or they would suffer unimaginable punishment. Cedric's methods would be even more ruthless when dealing with these people. After Jesse and his team cleared the scene and prepared to leave, they noticed something glinting in the corner behind the car.Jesse approached curiously and paled upon closer inspection. "Oh no, there's another one below. Run—"Jesse rushed

    Faye pouted and rolled her eyes. "No one knew who exactly you were mourning."She heard that Cedric's rumored girlfriend passed away at the same time she almost died on a mission. According to what she was told, Cedric burst out in tears and remained depressed for a long time. People around him assumed that he was upset because of a woman's passing because no one knew about anybody in the army. Moreover, missions were supposed to be dangerous, and dying wasn't a rare incident. Cedric's expression darkened slightly, and he kissed her. Faye couldn't shake him off as he held her tight. Unable to move, she could only let him do what he wanted. By the time he let her go, she was panting, her lips swollen. He rubbed her lips with a smile. "Do you know now?"She widened her eyes and glared at him. "You are dodging the subject.""Call me Big Brother again." He chuckled. Frustrated, she said, "Jerk.""You even look the same when you are mad. I should have known that you were

    Faye had made arrangements for Jeorgia, while Cedric started an investigation into what the Anderson and Garcia families were doing. Faye knew that this was a trap and that nothing happened by coincidence. However, she didn't know what the culprit's motive was. She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich. Faye, don't even dream of getting your murderer of a mother out! I won't let you. You better come back to Jeorgia, or this won't ever be over."With that, Tracy hung up.

    Clark's words only enraged Flora. Eleanor abused Faye when she was a child, which led to Faye getting sick repeatedly. She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor.

    Lizzie and Clint were momentarily stunned, confused by Tracy's words. "I just received a call from Uncle. He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around.

"I'm sorry, but they are not my relatives. Please handle it according to the law." After hanging up, she looked at Cedric, who was waiting for breakfast.
