Chapter 824 Give Up

Author: Taylor
Blake was boiling with rage in her room. She had finally realized why Alec broke up with her—the man had seen just how little importance she held in her family, so not even breaking up with her would stop their working together.

As much as Blake knew it herself, she still couldn't accept it.

She had spent so many years trying to win her family's approval. A man like Alec on his way to becoming head of his family could've been her one-way ticket to gaining stronger footing in her family, but that dream had dissipated in just one night.

Blake's anger rose the more she thought about it, especially how Jenny was the cause. She played a part in it too. If not for her operating on Alec, he wouldn't have recovered his memories and broken up with Blake.

"Just let it go, dear. Your father and your brother can handle the business world. You just focus on finding a nice young man to marry, hm?" Oblivious to Blake's train of thought, her mother could only try and console her.

Blake snapped, "

    Alec, meanwhile, had gone to meet Zeke to talk to him about the breakup with Blake."I didn't feel like we were compatible after some time together. That's why I chose to do it," Alec explained. Though it was just a way to placate them, and they both knew the real reason why, Zeke still didn't point it out. "I see. Might as well save everyone some time, hm.""Yes. Thank you for understanding." Alec gave him a bow out of respect.The two conversed briefly for several more minutes, with Alec reporting how the company was doing and getting the old man's approval before he finally left.Zeke immediately dropped his polite mask afterward."Why do you think he broke up with Blake Watkins?" he asked his butler, who had appeared behind him.The butler gave it some thought, then said, "Probably because he doesn't think he needs the Watkins'' help to become family head."No one had any idea where he got that confidence from."I doubt it. Do you really think the Watkins would call off t

    As unbothered as Jenny was, she still remained polite. "Of course. You two suit each other very well."At least they wouldn't break other people's hearts now that they could break one another's. Jenny couldn't guess who would be the loser in this relationship, though. Right now, Derrick seemed the most likely, yet Jenny knew he wasn't the kind to bear losses. Who knows what he was planning already?"Let's just forget about what happened before, Dr. Walter. We'll remain as colleagues from now on. I hope you don't mind," McKenna continued.Jenny nearly rolled her eyes. "Rest assured, there has never been anything between Mr. Clearwater and me, nor will there ever be."It had all been in McKenna's head from the start.Derrick felt embarrassed though McKenna scrunched her eyebrows up, upset. "I should hope so. I wouldn't want my boyfriend to cheat on me with another woman."Jenny smiled but said nothing, thinking, "One man's trash, another man's…gold-plated trash, I guess."After

    Jenny would've agreed to dinner with Luke if it weren't for her needing to go to the police station. She had just inherited the title of the family's head, after all. There was no reason not to keep the peace with the Fausts."You misunderstand, Mr. Luke. I really do have an errand to run. The police need me to make a statement at the station about what happened last night."Sometimes it didn't seem like there were any upsides to inheriting the title. If it weren't for her family, she wouldn't consider going out for dinner with Luke Faust.The man believed her. "Why don't I drive you there? I have time.""Uh…no, thank you." Now Jenny was at a loss for what to do. She really, really didn't want anything to do with Luke.Just then, Alec came by. "Hey, Jenny. Off work already? C'mon, let's grab dinner."Jenny was surprised to hear that, then quickly recovered upon realizing what Alec was doing. "Yeah. Okay.""Let's go." Alec ignored Luke entirely. He'd usually show him decent respe

    Silence enveloped the car for a moment before Jenny said, "Thank you. You can drop me off now.""Aren't you headed for the police station? I'll drive you." Alec replied, not slowing down.Jenny shook her head. "I can call a cab." She didn't want to be involved with Luke, nor did she want Alec to overthink just because she chose to leave with him.Alec still wasn't slowing down. "I know you don't feel the same way I do right now. In fact, you might even hate me. But you don't need to worry about me doing anything to you. All I'm doing is driving you to the station.""You misunderstand. I just don't want to trouble you, that's all." Jenny didn't hate Alec; she just didn't think him doing this for her right now was appropriate for their current relationship."I don't mind." Now Jenny didn't know what to say. She pursed her lips and left it at, "Alright then."If Alec insisted, there was no point insisting otherwise. It'd be silly to get into an argument over something so trivial.

    "Here we are, thank you for driving me here," Jenny said, ignoring Alec's question. She wasn't going to answer something so childish.Alec could only shake her head. "Go ahead then."Jenny got off the car and hurriedly entered the station as if worried Alec might snatch her back. The sight made Alec scowl. Was he that terrifying?Jenny left the station half an hour later. She was about to hail a cab to go to the dinner date she had with Evan when she noticed Alec was still by the street."What are you still doing here?" Did he plan to have dinner with them?That…would only spell trouble."Don't you have dinner plans with Evan Clarke? I'll drive you." Alec's flat expression wasn't helping Jenny guess what he was thinking.She stared at him for a while to make sure he wasn't bluffing before laughing. "You'd willingly drive me over?""Yeah." Alec nodded. "Don't worry. I won't be a bother. I'll leave once I drop you off.""Why?" Didn't Alec despise Evan? Why help her get to dinner

    Jenny was spotted by Evan the moment she walked into the restaurant. He waved her over. "Here, sit. Food's almost ready.""Sorry for making you wait." Jenny went to sit opposite Evan across the table.Evan waved her off but didn't ask her how she got there. He'd seen Alec drop her off from the restaurant windows. Evan respected Alec for being generous enough to drive Jenny over for their dinner, knowing it was with his love rival. He wouldn't have been kind enough to do that himself.The food was soon served, most of it Jenny's favorite. "Eat up while it's hot.""Don't mind if I do." Jenny had been starving since the afternoon, so she quickly helped herself to dinner."This is really good, Evan. Where'd you find this place?""I drove by a couple of times and saw they had a lot of customers, so I figured they must be doing something right. I wanted you to try it out, so here we are," Evan happily answered, passing some mashed yams to Jenny."Wow," Jenny thought. "I wouldn't hav

    As the two walked, they failed to notice the car trailing behind them a distance away.Though Alec didn't seem to care, he was rolling in waves of jealousy. That was why he never left the restaurant after dropping Jenny off.He ended up reaching the concert hall with the both of them, only stopping when they entered and disappeared from sight."The fuck is wrong with you, man? Jenny would never tolerate you stalking her like this," he groaned, rubbing his face tiredly.After thinking things through, he drove off, leaving the two alone. There were far more important things to do right now.…Graham never expected Rowena to show up in front of him ever again. He'd thought she'd be wise enough to stay hidden for the rest of her life with the money he gave her.She really did think he wouldn't do anything to her, huh?"What are you doing here?" Graham grunted coldly. No point faking the pleasantries now.Rowena didn't get upset with his attitude. She was there to ask for help, aft

    Graham knew reasoning with her was pointless and waved her off. "The court will decide what happens. I have no power over them nor will I use my power.""Will you really not give him a chance?" Rowena pleaded. She had prepared herself for Graham's cruelty, but her heart was still pained at actually experiencing it. She had loved this man once, after all."See her out." Graham no longer wanted to speak to nor see her again. "From this day onward, I will no longer see to Ms. Glass nor do I want her in my house!"Some of the servants in the household were used to Rowena's presence over the years and would still treat her as the matriarch whenever she came around. Surely they'd no longer make the same mistake now.Rowena glared at him, eyes red with unshed tears. "I'll remember this, Graham Walter!"She had decided to let go of the past after their divorce and instead spend her days doing what she loved with the money she had. In fact, she'd been happier than she'd ever been when she

    That afternoon, Gilbert called off his engagement to the Silveras. He did not pick up a single one of Lottie's calls. When he found Marigold, she was taking Caleb on a stroll around the neighborhood. It had been a while since she'd taken notice of anything related to Gilbert. She suddenly felt how nice it was to have her mental energy spent somewhere else, no longer being so hung up on that man. However, when Gilbert appeared before her, her heartbeat quickened. "Why are you here?" Marigold said, snapping out of her reverie. Gilbert smiled lightly. Without saying much else, he pulled her into an embrace. "Didn't you say that I could come to see you once everything is settled?" Marigold was stunned. She was in disbelief. "So, what you're saying is it's all over?" "Didn't you read the news?" Gilbert was speechless. "No. I didn't want to care." Every time she saw anything about Gilbert and Lottie, she felt miserable. She'd rather save herself the pain and block out anything

    In the end, Esther went with Gilbert's suggestion. However, she did not trade Bradshaw Operation's projects with Jenny. She went with the Silveras. For one, she did not trust the Walters. On the other hand, the Silveras and the Bradshaws were going to be united through marriage. They deserved to be trusted more. Gilbert didn't mind. After all, if anything happened to the Bradshaws, the Silveras would not help. With those projects in hand, they would only fall further into debt. The plan was going smoothly. Gilbert had not gone to see Marigold once. He knew that before subduing the Bradshaws, going to visit Marigold would only endanger her. After all, Marigold was safe. Nothing had happened, and Caleb was growing up healthily. One month later, things began to feel off in Bradshaw Operations. After Faust Group received their money, they did not start the project. No one knew what they were doing. Esther was feeling antsy. She prodded Gilbert to ask if there was anything wro

    That very afternoon, Esther and Gilbert rushed to Faust Group to sign the deal. Gilbert said he was worried that Alec would change his mind, so he urged Esther to sign it. Only through a written contract would they be able to relax. Esther thought it made sense and agreed to rush to Faust Group with Gilbert.In the meeting room, Alec looked at the two people before him, expressionless. "You have a good son, Mrs. Bradshaw." "I'm flattered. My son had Bradshaw Operations' interests at heart. He'll inevitably be a little insensitive. Please don't hold that against him, Mr. Faust." Esther smiled. She didn't mind Alec's sarcasm because it didn't matter. As long as Bradshaw Operations could truly benefit from this, she didn't care how much Alec mocked her. Alec smiled coldly and slid the contract over to her. "You may flip through it." Esther took it and read through it seriously.If this project succeeded, they would reap massive rewards. However, it required a massive upfront inv

    In the following days, Gilbert headed over to Faust Group infrequently during the day. To others, he was there to talk business with Alec. But in reality, it was a different scenario altogether. Vincent brought Gilbert a cup of coffee in Alec's office. Because of all the times he'd been there, Vincent knew what he wanted without having to ask. Alec had a cup of coffee placed before him, too. Everyone thought that Gilbert was trying to convince Alec to give him one of the shares, which was why he always came there, but that was not the case. The collaboration was a set-up. As long as the Bradshaws signed the deal on the project, they would not escape unscathed. Gilbert had planned this for a long time just to trick the Bradshaws into accepting the project. However, the scheme had to be executed perfectly. Since Gilbert buttered up the project in front of the Bradshaws, Alec had to feign disinterest in his collaboration. Otherwise, it would seem suspicious if Alec, a smart ma

    After the engagement party, Gilbert officially had a stronghold in Bradshaw operations. Because he was already very capable, he had a lot of supporters. No one challenged him in the company. Most of them sucked up to him because they knew that if things went well, he would be the heir of the company.Gilbert didn't really care about that. He didn't even want to be there for long. He knocked on Esther's door and walked into her office."Come, sit." Esther was all smiles when she saw him. It was more sincere than before.She used to doubt him a lot, but now, although she still had her reservations, she mostly believed in him. In her eyes, no one would reject the chance to inherit Bradshaw Operations. This was basically manna from Heaven. Gilbert just didn't know it back then, and now he did. Gilbert sat down in front of Esther and began reporting the information he had gathered, as well as his thoughts on Bradshaw Operations and his plans for the future.When he presented the inf

    Gilbert and Lottie's engagement party was held at Bardoff Grand Hotel on Saturday.A ton of people showed up to their engagement party. After all, the Bradshaws and the Silveras were pretty big names in Bardoff City, and plenty of the other families knew of their true wealth. They all came to attend the party. Jenny and Alec had both received invites. Jenny was Gilbert's sister, and on top of that, they represented the Walters and the Fausts. It was to be expected. At first, Jenny didn't want to go. The party held no meaning to it. It was just a show put on for Esther. It would be a complete waste of her time. However, she was talked into it by Alec. It would be weird if she didn't go. Zack brought Janet to the party. He found Jenny and was in a daze. "Wasn't Gilbert courting Marigold? Why is he engaged to Lottie?" Jenny rolled her eyes. "What have you been doing, Zack? You're really bad at keeping up." Gilbert had been courting Lottie for a while now. If Zack paid attention

    Gilbert drove to Jenny's villa, but he was in no rush to get down. He didn't unlock the doors, either. He obviously wanted to talk to Marigold. But Marigold evidently didn't want to. "I want to take my child and leave." She was afraid. What if Gilbert and Lottie married and took her child away? She no longer believed in love. The only thing she believed in was her child. Gilbert tightened his grip when he heard that. "Marigold, the engagement is only for Esther to see. I have no feelings for Lottie." "Who knows? People change. You said you didn't have feelings for me, too." Marigold found this all very amusing. Perhaps this was fate. Gilbert wanted to keep explaining, but Marigold did not give him the chance to. "Just let me and Caleb leave. If what you say is true, you can come to find us once everything is over." And if Gilbert didn't come looking for her, the truth would unfold itself, and she would give up all hope. Gilbert understood that Marigold had already made

    Marigold was miserable throughout dinner, but she persevered till the end without being too dramatic. After dinner, they walked to the entrance of the shopping mall.Gilbert went to get the car. Lottie stood with Jenny and Marigold. Watching Gilbert leave, she turned toward Marigold. "I heard that you used to like Gilbert very much." "It's all in the past. It's not worth mentioning." Marigold didn't want to talk about it. She was afraid that Lottie would see that she still liked Gilbert. Most importantly, she was afraid that Gilbert's plan would be ruined. Lottie smiled. "That's true. The past is the past. You're such a nice person. You'll definitely be able to find someone better suited for you in the future." Marigold pursed her lips. Gilbert soon brought the car over. Lottie was about to get into the car, but before she did, she suddenly turned to Marigold and said, "Gilbert and my engagement party will be in a few days' time. If you have the time, you're more than welcom

    Everyone was shocked to hear her speak so suddenly. Lottie was stunned, and she explained, "You've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I just think that if the child follows his father, it'll help him develop better, and you'll be less stressed." "I don't need your concern. I can raise my child alone," Marigold snorted. She did not hold back at all. Lottie looked unpleasant. Gilbert had no choice but to step in. "We'll have our own child together. And whoever likes it the most will get to keep it." Although they knew that Gilbert had meant this for Lottie to hear, Marigold found it extremely upsetting. She looked at Gilbert, and for a moment, she was unable to tell if he was being genuine. She thought of all that Gilbert had said to her last night, saying that he didn't like Lottie and had no intention of marrying her. But he looked to be truly in love. Marigold didn't think she could tell if he was faking it. "I'm sorry. I need to go to the restroom." Marigold didn't w
