His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 767

"What happened to Benedict?" She frowned, but she was very concerned about this, "Didn't you say he disappeared? Has there been any news?"

Although she did not take Benedict seriously, he was still a direct descendant of her uncle. There was still recognition of him among upper management. Besides, he stayed in the company until he rebelled and left, and he also helped Derrick handle the company's affairs for some time.

Arianna probably would not have had any chance if it weren't for him insisting on working on wood carvings instead of running the business.

She, therefore, felt a little uneasy when she learned that there could be updates regarding him.

"Well," Eloise said, her face dignified, nodding slightly, "I heard Benedict passed away."

"Passed away?" The news was so shocking that Arianna was speechless for a while before asking her mother, "Mom, is it true?"

"Eighty percent," After thinking about it, Eloise continued, “Your father isn’t very sure, so he hasn’t said anything yet. However, your uncle's health has been awful for the past two days. I guess his time will come soon."

"Dad was planning to announce Benedict's death at the management meeting?"

The news was shocking. She rubbed her hands and paced back and forth, unsure of what to do. If Benedict had passed away, Uncle Derrick would have lost his hope and might not be able to take the pain. Once Derrick gave in, Joseph would officially take over the company.

By then…

"Arianna," Eloise, of course, knew what was going on, "If your father takes over the company, then Damian's momentum will be even stronger. You have to hurry up."
