Chapter 310

Author: Full of Luck
Abel roared at Niamh, "Look at Elara! She's the only one who's genuinely working for my company!"

Elara added, "But the video exposed at the banquet today has already spread throughout the upper echelons of Capitol's elite circles."

She sighed softly and turned to Niamh. "Niamh, you're quite close with those wealthy heirs in our social circle. Go check if they're discussing what happened to our family."

A chill ran down Niamh's spine. She had a vague feeling that Elara was setting her up.

Abel urged Niamh, "Show me your phone."

Niamh's cheeks were so swollen she could barely close her mouth. She shook her head at Abel, sensing that Elara was laying another trap for her.

In the next second, Niamh was slapped again by Abel. Her already swollen cheeks now showed streaks of bright red, the skin stretched thin by the swelling beneath.

Abel stood over her, looking down as he commanded, "Don't make me repeat myself!"

Under Abel's pressure, Niamh had no choice but to hand over her phon

    Niamh noticed Abel's breathing grow heavier, and she felt a slight sense of relief. It was as if she could see a glimmer of hope for turning the situation around.Finally, it would be Elara's turn to have her teeth knocked out by Abel!Abel deleted the video related to Elara from Niamh's phone album. He took a deep breath, then raised his hand and slapped Niamh again.The slap came with a whistling sound, landing hard on Niamh's face. The cotton ball in Niamh's mouth flew out, mixed with thick blood, and splattered onto the floor."Niamh Jones! You're just asking for it! You ruined me, and now you're trying to ruin Elara too."I think you want to destroy the entire Jones family! I should just beat you to death!"Abel's eyes looked like they were about to pop out of their sockets."I didn't!" Niamh screamed as she spat out blood, the metallic taste of rust filling her mouth.Even so, her explanations were futile. She was just wondering why Abel wouldn't believe her?Abel threw

    Niamh pointed at Elara, her voice urgent and frantic. "Dad! All of this was orchestrated by Elara to ruin us!"Niamh's face was swollen to the point of resembling a pig's head. When she spoke, her words were slurred and barely intelligible.Her words struck a chord in Abel, making his heart skip a beat. Abel folded the belt in half and swung it at Niamh's nose."Don't you dare try to drive a wedge between me and Elara!"Niamh was stunned. She couldn't understand why Abel had suddenly taken Elara's side."Dad, I'm the one who grew up by your side! What kind of bond could you possibly have with Elara? You never even wanted to bring her back into the family in the first place!""Shut the hell up!"Abel was furious. His reputation was in tatters, while Elara's influence was rising rapidly. He still needed to rely on her in the future, so how could he allow Niamh to sow discord between them right in front of him?Abel shouted, "Get me some duct tape!"A pale hand handed him a roll

    A housewife with such ambition—it was unexpected.By allying with Theodore and publicly announcing their relationship, Elara aimed to use Theodore's enterprises to completely swallow up Jones Group.Now, as acting CEO, Elara would undoubtedly accelerate the acquisition process for Joss Tech. It wouldn't be long before she held the official signing ceremony for the acquisition.Thinking this, Priscilla curled her lips into a smile. No prey she set her sights on had ever escaped her grasp.She hadn't initially paid much attention to the minor matter of acquiring Joss Tech, but then she encountered Elara, this unorthodox housewife.Since Elara insisted on pushing forward with the acquisition deal with Snapp Group, Priscilla wouldn't hold back! Priscilla chuckled softly and picked up her phone to call Elara.Hearing Elara's voice on the line, Priscilla spoke, "Elara, I've decided to suspend our collaboration on the new tech project."Elara's voice came through, "Ms. Price, what do y

    "Harvey has a fever," said the bodyguard, Aiden Calhoun."Did you give him medicine?" Elara's voice was indifferent.Aiden replied, "He refused to take it. When we tried to force-feed him, he bit my colleague's hand."He added, "He's demanding to see you."Aside from the second day after Harvey was locked up, when Elara had brought him food, she hadn't gone to see the man since. Elara realized that beating him didn't bring her any satisfaction.Back when she watched Priscilla trample over Harold in front of her, she had wondered, "Does hitting someone really feel that good?"It must have felt amazing, given how much Abel idolized violence. But after trying it on Harvey, Elara found it utterly dull.She couldn't derive any pleasure or satisfaction from trampling or bullying others. Even though Harvey was now a prisoner, she couldn't be bothered to spare him a glance.In fact, she found the stench emanating from him repulsive.Aiden told her, "These past few days, he hasn't eate

    Mary was baffled by Harvey's question. "Sir, you were on a business trip."Now it was Harvey's turn to be stunned. A cold, grim expression settled on his face as he asked, "Who told you I was on a business trip?"The question made Mary feel an indescribable sense of unease. "Huh? I was told you were away on business these past few days."Harvey finally understood. This had to be an excuse Leonard came up with for him.During the seven days he was imprisoned, no one in the Fisher family had noticed he was missing. Everyone thought he was away on a business trip.Harvey entered the study.He pulled up the surveillance footage from the Fisher residence's main gate and saw that late last night, Hugo Turner, one of his drivers, had helped him out of a car.Mary and other staff had come out to greet him, but none of them noticed anything unusual about Harvey's condition.He questioned Hugo, who said he had received a call from Harvey and picked him up from the Golden Lion Club at 11:

    This further proved that his disappearance and reappearance were entirely orchestrated by Leonard.Harvey walked into the dining room. As he looked at the familiar breakfast spread, he suddenly felt as if an eternity had passed."Harvey, you're back," Ethel said as she walked in, having not seen her son in a while."Mom," Harvey greeted her with a neutral tone.Ethel sat down and joined him for the meal. Harvey then picked up his fork, and in front of him was his usual Melcinian-style breakfast.However, he had no appetite. He tried taking a bite of the sandwich, but all he could think about was the bowl of soup Elara had brought him."Make me a bowl of chicken noodle soup," Harvey instructed Mary."What?" Mary hesitated. "That'll take at least half an hour…"Mary glanced at Ethel, who asked in surprise, "Why do you suddenly want to eat that? Soup isn't filling. Melcinian food is much more nutritious than Euconian food!"Harvey said to Mary, "Go make it."Mary nodded. "Alrigh

    Ethel was also a bit surprised. Normally, Harvey wouldn't even deign to say Elara's name."Harvey, have you seen Elara recently?"Harvey's expression stiffened slightly, a cold detachment settling over his handsome face. Even in front of his mother, he remained aloof."No."Ethel also thought it was impossible for her son to have any further involvement with Elara."She's actually benefited from this mess—she's now the acting CEO of Joss Tech!"Ethel's tone was dripping with sarcasm. She didn't think much of Elara becoming the acting CEO."She couldn't even manage our household properly, and now she's running a company? Ha!" Ethel couldn't help but laugh.She didn't notice Harvey's frown."Anyway, Joss Tech is going to be sold. Let her play CEO for a few days and get it out of her system."The malice Ethel directed toward Elara was palpable, making Harvey feel slightly uncomfortable."Mom, did you go to Spring Garden recently…" Harvey almost asked if she had gone to Spring G

    "I saw that woman enter another building. I figured she was meeting a friend or something."Who would've thought the elevator would break down shortly after I got in? I was stuck in there with those bodyguards all night…"Ethel covered her face as she recounted her harrowing experience to her son. When the elevator doors finally opened, Ethel took a step forward and immediately wet herself. It was a scene she never wanted to relive.After returning to the Fisher family, Ethel fired all the bodyguards who had been trapped in the elevator with her. She couldn't bear to see them without being reminded of her humiliating ordeal at Spring Garden.Mary brought over the freshly made chicken noodle soup. Harvey took a bite and frowned."Did you follow Elara's recipe?" Harvey asked.Mary quickly nodded. "Yes, we followed Ms. Jones' instructions precisely—not an ounce more, not an ounce less."But even though the Fisher family's cook strictly adhered to Elara's notes, the chicken noodle s

    Theodore smirked, and the doctor on the phone asked him, "Should we report this to the police?""Do you want the whole world to know I had urological surgery?"The doctor on the other end let out a mischievous laugh. "Your medical records were stolen by a hacker. It won't be long before the elites of the Capitol know about Mr. Theodore Snapp's… performance issues!"The man's long, clean fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel. He glanced at the rearview mirror, where the Maybach was reflected."Proceed with today's follow-up as scheduled."The voice on the phone sounded concerned. "Aren't you worried…"Theodore stepped on the gas and turned the car around. "This is called 'luring the snake out of its hole.'"Watching Theodore drive away, Harvey got out of his car.The man was dressed in an expensive black suit. His face was cold and his deep eyes were like a dark pool on a winter night, unfathomable and mysterious.Harvey pressed the elevator button. The doors opened, and

    Many in the business world believed Theodore wasn't the type to blindly throw money at a woman. His high-profile announcement of a relationship with Elara must have had ulterior motives.Elara met Theodore's gaze, seeing her own reflection in his eyes. She could even hear her heart pounding violently.The skin on her chest seemed to vibrate with each beat, her blood surging so intensely she feared her racing heart would give her away!She instinctively leaned back, pressing herself against the car window to create as much distance from Theodore as possible.Theodore noticed her reaction, and a fleeting sense of loss flashed in his eyes. "Sorry."He took a step back, putting a clear distance between them. Even though they both knew this intimacy was just an act for others, their body's instinctive reactions couldn't deceive each other.A fine layer of sweat formed above Elara's lips. "I'm fine…"Theodore probably thought she was uncomfortable with his sudden closeness, but in rea

    Harvey was stunned! He stood frozen in front of the urology department for a few seconds before turning and walking away.Once he got into his car, he contacted a hacker to infiltrate the hospital's urology department's system and retrieve Theodore's medical records.Since it was a private hospital with strong confidentiality measures, the hacker could only access Theodore's records from that day.When Harvey opened the file the hacker sent him, his eyes widened in shock. A few seconds later, Harvey laughed. There was a disdainful snort escaping his throat.Theodore Snapp… was actually impotent!…A few days later, a silver supercar pulled into the underground parking lot of the commercial building where Joss Tech was located.Elara had just unbuckled her seatbelt when Theodore, who was driving, got out of the car. He walked around the front of the car and opened the passenger door.The tall, impeccably dressed man in an expensive suit stood outside the door, exuding a charm th

    Harvey called Mary. "Do you know what shoe size Elara usually wears?""Huh?" Mary held her phone and looked out the window, half-expecting to see a comet crashing into Earth.This was truly unprecedented—Harvey Fisher was actually asking about Elara Jones' shoe size. But why would he want to know?Relying on a vague memory, Mary gave Harvey Elara's shoe size. Harvey then relayed the size to the sales associate.The sales associate smiled. "Are you buying these for your girlfriend?"Harvey paused. "Why would you think it's for a girlfriend?"The sales associate's cheeks flushed red under the man's gaze. "It must be a new girlfriend, right? You don't even know her shoe size."It felt like a wad of paper had been stuffed into Harvey's throat, making it hard to breathe. He had been married to Elara for seven years, yet he couldn't even remember her birthday.In truth, if he wanted to find out, he could easily access all of Elara's information. But he had never bothered.It seemed

    Niamh pouted and reluctantly took off the high heels, tossing them onto the floor."See? I took them off!"Harvey lowered his long, thick lashes, his gaze fixed on the red-soled high heels on the ground."Throw them in the trash!"Niamh was shocked. "But I just bought these heels!"The man's dark eyes gleamed like those of a dangerous beast as he warned Niamh, "From now on, no one is allowed to wear this type of high heel in front of me!""You don't like these heels?" Niamh muttered. "Is it because Elara wore them?"In her mind, Niamh was practically screaming. How had she stepped right into Harvey's minefield?She must have been too engrossed in that video of Harvey, mistakenly thinking he enjoyed being stepped on by Elara in high heels!But on second thought, how could Harvey possibly like that plain Jane, Elara?When Elara stepped on him, he must have felt disgusted and repulsed!Niamh softened her tone. "If you make me throw these heels away, what am I supposed to wear b

    "Oh my! Oh my god!" The young men in the private room erupted into exaggerated cheers and laughter."Pigs must be flying—Niamh Jones is wearing high heels! This is too funny! Hahahaha!""Niamh! Did you lose your mind? Why on earth would you strap on stilts and go out like that?"Niamh pulled down the black mask covering her face. She had applied heavy makeup, hoping her still-swollen face would look somewhat presentable under the dim lighting."You guys always say I have no femininity. Well, today I'm going to show you what real femininity looks like!""Oh my goodness!"The wealthy young heirs in the room doubled over with laughter, some even wiping tears from their eyes."Niamh! Come on, take a few steps for us!""Everyone, pay attention! Niamh's showing off her newly installed legs! Hahahaha!" These young heirs treated Niamh as nothing more than a joke.The fact that Niamh could still appear by Harvey's side after the Riverfront Avenue car accident proved that, in Harvey's e
