Chapter 873 Who Would Have Thought

Author: Taylor
When Luke heard that there was a helicopter on the premises, he nearly fainted.

How could no one have told him about the helicopter? Wouldn't he have detected something amiss if he had known?

Anger surged in his heart. But then, he looked at the emergency room not far off. He suppressed the anger. He couldn't rush over now. He could only pray that Alec was already dead. If he were alive, and his father was the one who died, Luke would faint from anger.

Soon, the lights above the emergency room went off. The doctor walked out. "I'm sorry. We have tried our best."

"What did you say? You fucking piece of trash!" Luke wanted to rush forward to hit him.

With a loud bang, Zeke brought his cane down on the floor. Luke had no choice but to control himself.

Zeke sighed, seeming older. "Make the arrangements."

"Alright." The butler nodded. He couldn't imagine how something like this could have happened.

Wasn't this the day of Alec's death? How could Xavier be the one who died instead?

    Luke didn't retort. It was obvious now that Alec, indeed, had prepared himself. "Grandpa, why did he come even though he knew we would attack him? Isn't that just asking for trouble?"He couldn't figure out why Alec would do something like that. What was the point?"He is clever. He would not do something to endanger his life on purpose unless he had a reason." Zeke understood that about Alec.Luke only understood half of it. "What reason?""I don't know yet." Zeke frowned. He hadn't figured it out.Luke changed the topic. "Who killed my father? The surviving bodyguards said a group of people rushed in and started firing. They were chaotic.""Yes. It was chaos." Even the Fausts had chosen to assassinate Alec in the mountains. They were not as arrogant as Xavier's killers, who seemed to disregard consequences.Zeke stared into the distance, deep in thought. Luke was upset. "Are we going to take this lying down? We have to avenge my father, don't we?""Lying down?" Zeke smiled co

    News of Xavier's murder spread through Bardoff City like wildfire. Nearly everyone strengthened their security systems to avoid something like that happening to them.If someone had attacked the Fausts, it didn't just mean that those killers were arrogant. It meant that the Fausts were defenseless. They were now the city's laughingstock.Precisely because of that, Xavier's memorial was not a large affair. Only close friends and relatives came to visit, and he was then buried in the Fausts' graveyard. The Fausts seemed to want it to die down as quickly as possible. They didn't even seem to want to hunt down the attackers.Everyone was curious to know what the Fausts' action meant. Someone as pompous as Xavier had been killed. Were they going to take it lying down?In Bardoff Hospital, Jenny completed her rounds and walked into Alec's ward. He had been there for two to three days, but he could still not be discharged. After all, he was shot and then thrown off a cliff. Although he ha

    Alec didn't know whether or not to be amused. It felt like Jenny was there for a bedtime story.He told her everything about the plan and his preparations. However, he did not say that those people belonged to Evan. He just said that they were his. After all, he had made a promise to Evan.After Alec was done speaking, Jenny's face turned solemn. "So, Xavier was killed by your men?""Yes." Alec nodded."Did you have to kill him?" Jenny frowned. She couldn't understand. She knew the Fausts were fighting tooth and nail to be the next heir. However, she thought it was only just a fight. She was not expecting murder.Alec knew what she meant. He sighed. "It looks like Luke is attacking me on the surface, but this incident has Xavier's trademark written all over it. You know that, don't you?"Jenny nodded. She didn't think it was strange at all. Luke and Xavier were one and the same."I used to think that anyone who would attack me would be Xavier and Luke. But they were using firear

    Jenny gave him a thumbs-up after he was done. "As expected of Mr. Faust.""Don't tease me, Jenny." Alec felt embarrassed. He was afraid that she would have a bad impression of him. He wasn't just a mindless killer.If he did not make a move on the Fausts, Xavier would never let go of his hold on his position. Alec was forced to do it.Jenny smiled lightly. "I'm not teasing you. I'm honestly admiring you. You're a natural businessman. The Fausts will be yours, and you will bring them to the new light."Although the Fausts looked to be in their prime, Jenny could feel that the family wasn't as amazing as they looked. They were only tough on the outside. Otherwise, Zeke would not have done this to select his heir. He would not be so worried if they were truly capable.Alec didn't care about it right now. What he cared about was something else.He looked at Jenny and asked, "Can you forgive me now? I didn't tell you because I didn't know if it was in my right to do so. What if I told

    Alec glanced at him and said, "Since they can't take the proper routes, you'll just have to let them go along the borders. This shouldn't be a hard task for you.""I don't need you to say it." Evan glared at him. "I already did, but I'm worried that the Fausts have already prepared for that.""No matter how strong they are, they cannot place guards at every border. If you let your men leave one by one, the rates of success are high," Alec said.Unfortunately, his words received no praise. "Do you think this is a vacation? It was hard enough for them to travel in a group. If they split up, they'd have no chance of crossing the borders."The borders that they talked about were not legal routes to take. They were basically sneaking over to the other country. It was extremely risky. Evan had prepared for them to use a path they had used before. However, he was still worried for them."I didn't know you were so sentimental towards your henchmen. I thought you were the type to assassina

    Evan suddenly filled with the urge to punch him. He could work just for money, but if Alec used Jenny against him, Evan would never work for him."You'd better pray that you're this lucky every time!" With that, Evan left. He didn't want to linger around Alec any longer.Alec didn't mind. He did not feel the slightest twinge of remorse. Evan acted like this was a big loss, but Alec knew very well that he was not a saint. If he were, he would not be in his position.Even after a few days, Alec remained in the hospital. His wounds were already pretty much healed. If he were in another hospital, he would have fought to get out.However, this was Bardoff Hospital. As long as he stayed, he would be able to see Jenny every day. Naturally, he would not wish to be discharged.On top of that, he was waiting. Waiting for the Fausts to come.Xavier was done and buried. Alec had not returned home. The Fausts had not sent anyone over to check on him as if he had not existed. However, Alec kne

    Zeke smiled knowingly. "I will be waiting for your good news, Alec.""However, it's been so long. I'm afraid I won't be able to find anything out," Alec said. He felt that Zeke was giving him this impossible task on purpose, so he would have a reason to attack him later.As if prepared for his answer, Zeke said, "Don't worry. I already caught two of the killers. I'll let you be the interrogator. You can't let me down!"In truth, he had already interrogated them. Finding nothing, he had gone to see Alec.He felt it had something to do with Alec, and those two killers would get upset when they saw him. If Alec were the one to interrogate them, they'd be unable to deal with the betrayal and blabber about everything.Alec could guess most of what Zeke was thinking.It was a pity that Evan's henchmen had never seen Alec before. They had no idea why they had to kill Xavier. Even if he were the one to interrogate them, nothing would be found.After Zeke left, Alec called Evan to ask wh

    Jenny coughed, obviously awkward.Alec had indeed often asked her out during the time he was hospitalized, and she had always refused. She didn't think he'd be talking about it now. Did he have to be so petty?She said nothing else. They would eat in the cafeteria, then. The food there was honestly pretty good, at least to her. As for Alec's tastes, that was none of her business."I saw Zeke in the hospital this morning. He was here to see you, wasn't he?" Jenny asked, curious.Alec nodded. "You say you don't care about me, but you do, really. Haven't you noticed?""What do you mean? Zeke was so noticeable. I would have seen him as long as I wasn't blind." On top of that, everyone in the hospital was talking about it. Even if she hadn't seen him, she would have known.What a pity that Alec couldn't care less about her denial. "He was here to see me. He's caught two of Xavier's killers and wants me to interrogate them.""What?" Jenny instantly grew worried. "They won't give you a

    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
