Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 380

She had not forgotten what she overheard on the phone last time.

She knew that what he said on the phone was clearly about the Taylor Group having a grudge against the Lancaster Group. Therefore, the company he said was going to be devoured by them was definitely the Lancasters.

So the reason why she asked knowingly was to hear how he would answer.

"Of course you haven't heard about it. Well, it's not just you. Mr. Lancaster and the entire business district of Vancouver haven't heard about it." Elliot raised a finger and waved.

Yvonne secretly pinched her thigh to calm herself down and pretended to be curious. "So tell me then, which company is it? You’re killing me."

"It’s a secret!" Elliot smiled mysteriously and pulled her leg by not telling her.

Yvonne frowned, "Why is it a secret? The Taylor Group will definitely try to take down that company sooner o r later, and I'll find out anyway so what's the difference between keeping it secret and telling me now?"

"Of course there's a difference. If I tell you now, it won't be exciting anymore." Elliot looked at her.

Yvonne pursed her lower lip and pretended to be unhappy. She said, "If you don't want to tell me, fine. I don't want to know either. But you could at least tell m e what grudges your father has against that company, right?"

"I guess I can." Elliot nodded and touched his chin.

Yvonne's eyes lit up and she moved closer. "So tell me!"

Her heart was beating fast.

She really wanted to know why the Taylors hated the Lancasters.

"Actually, the beef between them was simply over a woman. Twenty years ago, the heir to that company took my father's most beloved woman away from him and rendered my father infertile, so he could not have any children. You’ve probably seen my father in a wheelchair?" Elliot asked.

Yvonne nodded, "Yes I did. Your father can't walk on his legs."

"No, no, no!" Elliot shook his fingers again. "He can actually walk, but he has weak legs so he can’t walk for long. Therefore, he’ll always be in a wheelchair. However, this is not the most important thing. The important thing is that my father became infertile. Can you imagine how irrational a man would be if he loses the most important thing to him?"

"..." Yvonne opened her mouth and did not answer.

Elliot continued, "For a man, losing the symbol of a man is undoubtedly crueler than killing him, you know that? Moreover, it was his most trusted best friend who did this to him."

"How could this be..." Yvonne muttered in disbelief.

Elliot sneered when he heard her response. "But that’s the truth. My father survived with hatred in his heart and he vowed to ruin his enemy. It’s a pity that my father didn’t have enough power 20 years ago, so he couldn't take revenge. That was why he went abroad-he wanted to grow his own power."

Speaking of this, he felt a little thirsty. He took the glass of water he had just put down earlier and took a sip. He then continued, "Finally, after 20 years, my father's power is on par with his enemy’s, so he returned to Vancouver because he wanted to destroy his enemy with his own hands."

"I see..." Yvonne bit her lower lip tightly, and it felt like a terrible storm in her heart.

Elliot's words were enough to prove that the enemy of the Lancasters that had been lurking in the dark was the Taylors!

The old man who tied her and beat her up was Shaw Taylor because she still remembered how that old man had trouble walking-it was exactly the same as what Elliot described just now.

Yvonne started breathing heavily as she thought about it, and her body trembled slightly.

Elliot noticed it so he quickly put down the glass of

water and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yvonne didn't want him to find out anything, so she lowered her head and pretended to be weak. "Nothing. The wind was blowing earlier and I felt a little cold. I tested my bone marrow twice so my body isn't as good now. I can't stand the wind." i

"It should rain in a while. I'll close the French windows." Elliot got up and walked toward the balcony to close the French windows.
