News on the internet spread at the speed of lighting. Hardy had arranged his men to spread the news of Declan's death extensively. He had also arranged for them to accuse William by saying that Declan had died after William had paid him a visit and William was undoubtedly the murderer of Declan. The news spread like wildfire while William observed the news calmly with a sneer on his face. Chief Scott was flooded with calls that came from his superiors as well as the media to enquire about the news. Chief Scott answered according to William's idea that Declan was still in the hospital to be rescued but the situation was unknown. In contrast, he directly hung up the phone calls made by the media. Chief Scott turned back and glanced at William with a bitter smile on his face and said, "Sir William, what should we do now? Someone must be trying to throw you under the bus, isn't it?" "Yes, you're right! They came for me but you were also caught in this b
Hardy picked up the phone immediately and said excitedly, "The footage of Declan's death has come out and we have successfully thrown William under the bus!" The mysterious man chuckled and said, "That was the reason why I am calling you, and let's now move on to our next step." "What would be our next move?" Hardy asked. "Tell the entire world to point fingers at William and also accuse him of all the things that Declan had done. William was the mastermind behind all this and he gotten rid of Declan was because he was afraid that Declan would turn his back against him." The mysterious man laughed and was feeling on top of the world. "Besides that, you have to utilize your connections and try your very best to get William into the police station to be interrogated." "Is that all?" Hardy asked. "Of course not, as interrogation is just the beginning of the game! If you could force him into jail and ensure that he can't escape, he will be as good as de
William was not bothered by the incident at all and was sitting on the balcony of the presidential suite while accompanying Valeria to have afternoon tea. Valeria was eating pastries while swiping her tablet to get ahold of the latest update of Declan's news. She then shook her head and said, "Honey, aren't you concerned about it at all? Why does it seem that the news is getting increasingly popular?" William replied with a smile, "Don't worry! Hardy was behind this and had spent a fortune to blow up this piece of news. I'm delighted to see Hardy willing to spend more money just to point fingers at me." Valeria placed the cake down from her hand and said, "Honey, how much did Hardy actually spend to hype up this news? Won't he feel heartbroken when all his effort will soon turn to dust?" "Of course he won't as he has no idea about it yet." William grinned and continued, "Hardy is willing to go all in as long as he could get rid of me." "He is looking for t
Devon did not know that the investigation team had known the truth and was still waiting for the updates at the hotel with Raelyn. The door was suddenly pushed open as Natasya was panting while glancing at them. "Natasya, why were you discharged from the hospital?" Raelyn asked in surprise while looking at Natasya. "How could I not budge when such a big news had broken out?" Natasya shut the door and sat down beside Devon. "Dad, what's going on? Why are there rumors that are claiming William as the murderer of my uncle? How is that even possible?" Devon remained silent, which had made Natasya increasingly anxious, "Dad, please say something!" "Your dad could not wrap his head around it as well. What more can he tell you when he has no idea about it?" Raelyn chipped in. "Why are you still here then? You should head out and get ahold of the situation. What should we do if William is accused of being a murderer?" Natasya's inquiry was a wake-up
"What idea have you come up with?" Talitha and Natasya asked at the same time. "I am going to make a deal with William just like how we dealt with Hardy by publicly admitting his relationship with Talitha. We will use the same tactic on William with Natasya this time." Raelyn's eyes lit up when she heard about Devon's proposal and agreed, "Yes, this is a good idea! Why didn't I think of it before? It was a success with Hardy and perhaps might work on William as well. It will be a win-win situation for us if that is the case." "I don't think so! He would not agree as he has a strong ego. He might even think that we are threatening him instead," Natasya was displeased with the idea. "He must have a soft spot to be dealt with! Wasn't Hardy the perfect example? He wanted to get rid of the baby but eventually chose to publicly announce his relationship with Talitha. Hardy and William are indifferent and I am confident that this plan would work!" "They are n
Natasya had come up with such a despicable and ridiculous idea. Valeria was pissed off and sprung up upon hearing Natasya's proposal. William reached out to get ahold of Valeria. He held her in his arms and kissed her on the forehead as a way of comforting her. Natasya was trying to use the tactic that previously worked on Hardy that publicly admitted his relationship with Talitha. William was the one who deserved the credit upon framing Hardy instead of the Anderson family. How did Devon and Raelyn have the ability to keep Hardy under control? William's gaze was frosty but his voice was gentle and tender, "That's a good idea. I'll discuss it with my dad first." Natasya was secretly delighted that William had gladly accepted her suggestion. However, she knew that the idea would soon turn to dust should Hayden interfere in it. Hayden hated her so much that he had previously made arrangements for the servants to teach her a lesson. How would he agree
Hardy knew that Michael would eventually bail William out of jail. Hence, his plan was to detain William for several days in the detention center. Did it mean that Hardy had arranged for his men there to get rid of him? William would have gone with the flow and have a look at the tricks that were under his sleeve. However, William was not interested as the detention center was a miserable place to be, and he decided to avoid Hardy's trap. William decided to make a call to Marcus and it was swiftly connected, "Mr. Howard!" "Have you get ahold of the motive of the keyboard warriors that were hired by Hardy?" Marcus replied, "It seems that Hardy is desperate to force you into jail based on me and President Saunders' opinion. What do you think?" "I think so, too, as I reckon he is to make a move on me at the detention center. Hence, I have decided to not grant his wish to avoid wasting my time. Let's now commence with our plan to get rid of Hardy!"
Valeria was bothered when she heard that William had revealed Declan's actual situation to Fandrey. "Honey, didn't you say that there is a mole within your grandfather's family? Why would you tell him the truth? Aren't you afraid that the traitor would know about it?" "Of course not!" William grinned and continued, "I did it on purpose." "Why? Are you intending to find the mole?" Valeria asked. "Yes, as I am dying to know who on earth is it! He must not be an ordinary man as he knew my whereabouts precisely. This is a perfect chance as grandpa had no luck in finding any suspects." William glanced at the time and continued, "It's already late and my grandpa can only discuss this with his close ones and would not simply reveal it to anyone. We will be able to get some dirt if Hardy would receive news that Declan is still alive." "Is that your plan? How witty of you!" "I'm not witty but intelligent! I would have been long dead if it weren't for my brill
