Chapter 716 Follower Not receiving any response from Christina even after waiting for a long while, Victoria shifted her gaze and followed Christina’s line of sight to an empty corner. She asked curiously, “Christina, what are you looking at?” A hint of coldness flitted across Christina’s eyes as she withdrew her gaze. “Nothing. Didn’t you say you wanted to survey jewelry? Let’s go now.” “Okay. I’ve already made an appointment with the jewelry designer. I guarantee you won’t regret tagging along this time.” Victoria was exhilarated at the mention of jewelry. She dragged Christina out of the restaurant. When Christina met the jewelry designer in person, she finally fathomed what Victoria meant when she said their meeting with the designer would be worthwhile. The jewelry designer Victoria hired was called Hera. Despite her young age, she was well–known internationally and only took on private custom orders from high–end customers. She only accepted two orders per year. Although she was rumored to be eccentric, that didn’t affect her career progression or esteemed reputation. As soon as Victoria and Hera met, they greeted each other warmly with a cheek kiss. ac Victoria introduced, “Hera, let me introduce you to my senior, Christina. She has her own clothing brand and studio. She’ll be my boss after some time.” Hera, possessing Epean and Adrunian bloodline, bored her gray–blue eyes into Christina’s. She stretched out her hand and said, “Hello, my name is Hera. I’m a jewelry designer. Victoria and I are university classmates. I often heard her talk about you.” Christina shook hands with Hera and smiled faintly. “I’ve heard much about you, Ms. Hera. Thanks to Victoria, I have the pleasure of meeting you in person today. I truly didn’t come for nothing this time.” Hera responded with a courteous smile. Those flattering compliments circulate mainly because of how supportive others are.”“ Victoria linked their arms with hers, one on each side. “Let’s sit down and chat. After they interacted for some time, Christina realized Hera merely had an indifferent appearance. In fact, she was talkative and humorous. The trio chatted about a few topics before moving on to their main agenda that day. Victoria expressed her requirements and ideas for the wedding ring to Hera. After more than an hour of discussion, Victoria and Hera finalized the initial draft. “I’ve made plans with friends tonight, so we’ll have to meet again next time.” Hera looked apologetically at the two. “I’ll treat you to a meal when I’m free. I think our personalities are quite compatible, Ms. Steele, 1 hope we’ll have a chance to work together in the future. Christina was pleasantly surprised. “It would be my honor.” She was planning the first fashion show after her studio opened for business. If she could acquire Hera’s jewelry sponsorship, her reputation and popularity would increase further. “My ride is here. I look forward to our next meeting. Ms. Steele“ Hera picked up her bag and left. While watching Hera’s retreating figure, Christina had already formulated a preliminary plan for their collaboration in her mind. “Christina, I didn’t lie to you, right?” Victoria leaned closer to Christina, seeking credit. Christina pinched Victoria’s cheek. “I owe you a favor for this.” “You and Mr. Hadley have helped Sebastian and me so much that I don’t even know how to thank you. Besides, I’ll be working as a designer in your studio in the future. Getting sponsorships for the studio is also part of my job. Christina, given our relationship, you don’t need to be so formal with me.” “Nevertheless, I still have to thank you for helping me establish this connection.” Victoria scratched her nose. “So you saw through me.” “You need more practice to polish your acting skills. Although my brand is somewhat famous, without the introduction from an acquaintance, a designer as renowned as Hera would never waste her time and energy to get to know an insignificant clothing brand, much less develop the interest to cooperate with us.” Hera could’ve refused Victoria’s request, but she had surprisingly accepted, which prompted Christina to feel curious about Hera’s intention. Christina was already looking forward to their next meeting. “I’m going to take a look at the studio. Do you want to come with me?” Christina asked Victoria. …
Chapter 715 Shady Business Knowing that Victoria was intentionally changing the subject, Christina decided to go along with it. “Okay, spill the beans. What shocking information did you discover?” Victoria took a sip of her juice, half a cup vanishing quickly, and then cleared her throat before cautiously surveying their surroundings. Satisfied that only Lyle, whom Christina trusted, was present, she began to share the information she had uncovered. “Last night, shortly after we left, something happened at David’s residence. The banquet was abruptly cut short, and there are rumors that a dispute arose between the Labarge cousins over an uneven division of their company. During the altercation, David accidentally stabbed Winston, leading Winston’s family to insist on involving the police. However, David’s mother intervened. She managed to suppress the incident and create an opportunity for further discussion.” Christina probed further, “But weren’t Winston and David working well together? Why did they suddenly go their separate ways?” “It appears that Emilia’s entanglement with the two cousins served as the indirect trigger of the altercation. After all, it is difficult for any man to accept his partner betraying him and becoming involved with his own brother. Emilia’s manipulation skills are truly remarkable. She managed to captivate and manipulate both brothers.” Victoria couldn’t help but sigh as she continued, “One of the main reasons is David’s discontent with a cerrain high–ranking executive in the company. He holds prestigious titles but contributes little to the actual work, yet still receives substantial rewards. David believes that he has put in immense effort for the company, only to be given the position of vice president. He demanded a larger share of the company’s stocks and dividends, or even the opportunity to take over the company itself, but Winston refused to agree. Since David couldn’t do much about the high–ranking executive, he resorted to targeting Winston. This led to a major argument between the two men, and David announced that he would be working independently from that point onward.” After taking a sip of her juice to quench her thirst, Victoria went on. “Last night, Winston attended the banquet with the intention of making David’s mother their mediator, hoping she could persuade David to change his mind. However, things took a turn for the worse as they started bringing up old matters and arguing with one another. Eventually, it escalated to a physical altercation which was only brought to an end when David ended up stabbing Winston. “Interestingly, the mysterious high–ranking executive has never shown his face since the company was established. He’s only responsible for providing funds and projects. Occasionally, he’d issue some orders, leaving Winston and David to handle all the legwork. However, this is just one version of the story. There’s another version where it is rumored that the Labarge cousins are involved in some shady business and offended some people they shouldn’t have. They made a fortune through unorthodox means, and now those people are closing in on them. Fearing the consequences, David suggested parting ways and venturing into their respective business endeavors.” The information Victoria had discovered aligned closely with what Nigel had told Christina. Christina believed that the deteriorating relationship between the Labarge cousins was indeed connected to both versions of the rumors. It was Nigel who had provided the funding to establish the company. Despite having already amassed a fortune fifteen years prior, the cousins sought to repeat their misdeeds, this time aiming at their former benefactor, Nigel. Winston and David had stolen the assets that Nigel had transferred overseas. It was only a matter of time before this secret would be unearthed by Yerek In the face of their own interests, Winston and David harbored mutual distrust, fearing betrayal from one another. This prompted them to hastily go their separate ways in order to safeguard their respective gains and minimize any potential damage. “Did Winston agree to call off their partnership?” Christina asked. “David is out to kill him. It’s only natural that Winston wouldn’t want a ticking time bomb by his side. Early this morning, he got in touch with a lawyer to draft a contract. However, resolving the situation completely might not be easy, considering how David managed to rise to his current position. His mother is aware of the situation. She’ll be reluctant to let go of Winston, who played a huge role in her son’s success. With that knowledge in mind, Christina instructed the other woman, “If Winston and David end up parting ways, you must let me know immediately.” Victoria realized that something exciting was about to happen, and her eyes sparkled with anticipation. “Christina, do you already have an idea in mind?” “To be honest, I managed to extract plenty of valuable information from Anya on the day of the incident. Winston has in his possession a recording that serves as evidence of their collaboration with Nigel in harming my parents fifteen years ago. He’s been using it to protect himself, and unfortunately. I haven’t been able to find out where he’s hiding it.” “You’re not planning to approach Winston and David under the pretext of cooperation to obtain the evidence, are you?” “That’s right. It’s the most practical option I have thus far.” Victoria hung her head in despair, repeatedly slapping her own lips with her hand. Seeing this, Christina was momentarily taken aback. She swiftly intervened, gently grabbing Victoria’s hand to prevent her from causing harm to herself. “What are you doing. Victoria?” “I shouldn’t have shared this information with you. You’re putting yourself at risk by doing this, and if Mc Hadley finds out that I was the one who leaked the information to you, he’ll kill me. Christina, please have mercy on me. I’m begging you. I’m not even married yet, and Sebastian doesn’t deserve to be widowed before he gets the chance to marry. Please spare my life, and let’s find someone else to handle this, okay?” Victoria stared at Christina with teary eyes as she pleaded. Desperate to dissuade the latter from acting on her risky plan, she was on the brink of dropping to her knees. …
Chapter 714 An Unfair Agreement Christina didn’t immediately agree to Nigel’s conditions. “I need time to verify whether what you’re saying is true. Before that, I expect you to behave yourself and stay in your lane. It’s a condition that must be met for us to successfully collaborate.” It was obviously an unfair agreement, but Nigel was not in a position to refuse. Nigel had already lived through almost two–thirds of his life. As a deeply traditional person, he didn’t have extravagant expectations for the time that remained. His only wish was to have someone dear to him by his side in his old age and provide him with support until his final days. Now that Anya was gone, Yerek became the only person Nigel could truly depend on. Nigel looked back on the days of boundless glory when he had control over the Gibson family and compared it to his current situation. His overwhelming emotion wasn’t one of regret but rather a deep- seated self–directed anger for not being ruthless enough. Because of his momentary lapse in judgment, he had inadvertently provided his long–suffering prey with an opportunity to turn the tide. “I’m already a prisoner with my life and death in your hands. There’s nothing I can do,” said Nigel with a bitter smile, his face marked by a growing look of defeat and weariness. No matter how dire Nigel’s circumstances were, they failed to elicit even a hint of compassion from Christina as the death of her mother and the tormenting years her father had endured in a wheelchair only served to fuel her hatred toward Nigel. All of a sudden, a sinister idea blossomed in Christina’s heart. “In consideration of your somewhat sincere intentions, Nigel, I’ll share a little tidbit of information with you.” Christina’s lips curled into a menacing smirk. “Do you remember Emilia? Anya’s death may have. something to do with her. Yerek and Emilia share a close relationship behind the scenes. Who knows. perhaps Yerek could have had some involvement in the incident.” With that, Christina whirled around and left without sparing another backward glance. “What do you mean by that, Christina? Come back here and make things clear!” A scream of rage tore from Nigel’s throat, echoing behind her, followed by the sound of something heavy crashing to the floor. Nigel’s own flesh and blood had conspired to harm his half–sister. The source of this tragedy stemmed from Nigel’s insatiable greed. Undoubtedly, he deserved to bear the weight of this agonizing guilt. The elusive truth loomed over Nigel like a razor–sharp guillotine poised to claim his life one day. Even if he managed to survive by some stroke of luck, he would be condemned to a fate worse than death—a life devoid of true purpose and filled with unending torment. Christina stepped out of the prison gates, coming to a pause in front of her car. Gazing up at the somber. ashen sky, she let out a gentle sigh. A sense of melancholy burdened Christina’s heart like a mountain resting upon it. Despite witnessing the pitiful state of Nigel firsthand, she did not feel as satisfied as she had imagined. Lyle, sensing her subdued mood, asked, “Mrs. Hadley, if you are facing any challenging problems that need solving. I’m here to offer my assistance.” A comforting smile spread across Christina’s face as she replied, “There are indeed plenty of issues that need to be resolved, and your assistance will be of great help. I won’t hesitate to ask for your help, and in fact. I have a matter that requires your assistance.” “Please, do tell.” “I promised to meet my junior at ten o’clock, and it’s almost time. I would appreciate it if you could take me to the designated location as efficiently as possible, Christina said with a smile. “Let’s not waste any time. My junior has a strong dislike for tardiness.” Lyle, having won several international racing championships, was skilled in driving almost any mode of transportation, whether it be airborne, aquatic, or terrestrial. There was hardly any type of vehicle he couldn’t handle with expertise. The journey from the detention center to the city center would normally take half an hour by car. If the traffic was smooth, they would reach their destination in fifteen minutes. However, Christina was not an ordinary passenger; she was with child. The speed of the car had to be maintained within a safe range, and this undoubtedly added a layer of difficulty to Lyle’s quest. Feeling the pressure, he said, “Mrs. Hadley, I’ll try to drive faster to ensure you arrive on time for your appointment.” “Don’t take it so seriously. I was just kidding! My junior is notorious for being late to appointments: Usually, it’s others who have to wait for her. Let’s go.” …
Chapter 713 He Is Your Only Son Nathaniel knitted his brows. “Some of the assets overseas Yerek inherited from Nigel are nothing more than shell companies. It seems that both Yerek and we were deceived by Nigel,” “What? Why would Nigel do that?” Christina exclaimed. Nigel’s locked up in prison, and yet he went through all this trouble to set up this scheme? How on earth did he pull it off while being stuck behind bars? “Nigel’s ultimate goal is to become the head of Gibson Corporation, but he lacks the capability to achieve it. However, it’s a different story for Yerek, who is now a free man. The fact that Yerek managed to find a reliable person he could count on in just a little over a month indicates that he must have had someone guide him behind the scenes.” Christina went deep in thought. Who could that be? Anya is dead, and Mrs. Lazuli doesn’t seem capable of orchestrating such a plan. Even Emilia has vanished without a trace. At this point, the only person Yerek could count on is Barnaby, “Could Barnaby be the person who offered Yerek guidance?” Christina made a wild guess. “Sheridan still holds sway in the Stone family, so Barnaby wouldn’t dare to make any reckless moves. With Sheridan’s absolute power in the family, no one in their right mind would dare to challenge him.” As the primary suspect was eliminated, Christina found herself trapped once again in a deadlock of thoughts. She could not afford to sit idly by. After much hesitation, she said earnestly, “I want to meet Nigel.” Since she could not find any clues from Yerek, she thought it best to shift her focus to Nigel instead. Nathaniel knew nothing would hold Christina back. “Tell me when you’d like to meet him. I’ll get someone to make the necessary arrangements. “Let’s schedule it for tomorrow morning. Let’s get it done and over with.” Christina had thought she could avoid any contact with Nigel as long as she chose to ignore any updates or information about him. However, that was all wishful thinking on her part. The next morning. Lyle accompanied Christina to the prison to pay Nigel a visit. In just a short span of half a month, the experience of imprisonment had eroded Nigel’s once proud demeanor and determination. His jet–black hair had turned silver, and his face bore the weight of weariness and hardships. His once–sharp eyes were robbed of their vitality, leaving them dull and lifeless. Nigel’s eyes darted stiffly from side to side, devoid of expression. He lifted his gaze to see the striking Christina seated before him. The malicious smile that tugged at the corners of his lips could send shivers down anyone’s spine. Separated by a thick pane of glass, Christina remained unfazed. “Nigel, it’s been a while. It appears that prison life hasn’t been too kind to you,” Christina said with a subtle grin. “On the bright side, you should be grateful that your charges are limited to financial crimes. Anyway, I’ll work doubly hard to make sure your stay behind bars is prolonged.” Nigel’s facial muscles twitched, and his gaze turned dark and cold. “Christina, did you come here today just to rub it in my face?” “Oh, certainly not. I’m here specifically to seek your guidance. I’m genuinely curious about how you were able to covertly transfer Gibson Corporation’s assets overseas and subsequently erase any trace of it. I find it intriguing how you left no evidence behind,” Christina said, her eyes fixed on Nigel’s, afraid of missing even the slightest clue. “I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Nigel responded calmly, “You’ve successfully taken control of Gibson Corporation, and you know better than anyone what assets I had. Now I’m just an incompetent prisoner. Whatever charges you want to pin on me. I’ll accept my fate.” Nigel was confident that Christina did not have any evidence in her hands. Otherwise, she would not have come specifically to engage him in this conversation. Like a solitary wanderer, he remained calm and unperturbed, impervious to any provocation. “Do you know Anya is dead?” Christina suddenly changed the subject, calmly delivering that tragic piece of news. “She was trapped in a car in a fire and burned alive. The culprit remains at large, and the case has made little progress. I wonder, could Yerek be the next target of the killer? Oh, no. He’s your only son, isn’t he Bang! …
Chapter 712 Change In Attitude As a precaution. Preston decided to sound out Nathaniel. “We’ve been acquainted for years, Mr. Lesley. Do you still not know me?” A cold smile formed on Nathaniel’s lips. “Sebastian is loyal to me. I won’t disappoint him just to please others. He deserves this.” Nathaniel was right. He didn’t need to please others, for he had the quality of being the one others toadied to. Preston stared at Nathaniel. He quickly came up with a plan and gave him a vague answer. “Even though an elder brother can be considered a parent, my parents are still alive and well, so I can’t decide on my parents‘ behalf. I hope you can forgive me for that. The Lesley family isn’t a common household, so if Mr. Taggart wishes to continue staying by my sister’s side, he’ll have to follow the rules Following traditional marriage customs is a must. I’m sure that isn’t a difficult request.” Preston’s change in attitude caught Sebastian off guard. Despite the happiness within him, Sebastian forced himself to play it cool. “Rest assured, Mr. Lesley. I’ll respect Victoria’s and the Lesley family’s requests. I won’t let you down.” He was eager to show Preston his sincerity toward Victoria, but he wasn’t a smooth talker. Preston didn’t need Sebastian to persuade him with clichés. He gave him a long stare and warned, “Sebastian, remember your promise today.” At that moment, David raced over with his secretary. “It’s my honor to have you both, Mr. Hadley and Mr. Lesley, attend my mother’s birthday banquet. I apologize in advance if there’s any lack of hospitality.” David wasn’t hoping much when he sent the invitation to Nathaniel and Preston since it wouldn’t affect him in the slightest if the two didn’t show up, but if they did attend, his social status would rise. He wouldn’t have to be cautious and check others‘ expressions in the future when he managed his company. Those people might end up being the ones who buttered up to him. David had had people keep an eye on Nathaniel and Preston. When he noticed the growing tension between the two, he didn’t dare to approach and had chosen to watch from the side instead. “Thank you for inviting me, Mr. Labarge. You gave me a chance to settle some troublesome matters. I’ll have to take my leave since I have something else scheduled,” Preston said indifferently. He turned around and left the moment he finished. David only got the gist behind Preston’s words and misunderstood them for some dispute between Preston and Nathaniel, not connecting it to the scandal of Sebastian and Victoria’s relationship. David was about to approach Nathaniel when the butler ran to his side and whispered something in his “I’m sorry, I have to deal with an urgent matter with my mother. Please excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Hadley.” After courteously explaining his departure, David left with his butler without waiting for a reply from Nathaniel and Christina. Christina hadn’t caught sight of Winston since the banquet started. That, along with David’s hasty departure, piqued her curiosity. Hanus “You must be tired. Let’s head home.” Nathaniel had never liked attending banquets. Since he had already achieved what he came out to do that day, he didn’t need to continue wasting his time there in the name of talking business. Moreover, Christina was quite far in her pregnancy, She needed rest too. Christina frowned. “Are we leaving already? We haven’t wished Old Mrs. Labarge a happy birthday yet.” “Old Mrs. Labarge is busy handling something, so she won’t have time to meet anyone. Sending her a present is enough.” Nathaniel leaned closer and whispered in Christina’s ear, “Winston is here. I’m sure it won’t be peaceful for the Labarge family tonight. We don’t need to be dragged into their mess,” “Let’s head home, then. I’m a bit tired.” A flash of disappointment flickered across Christina’s eyes. She wasn’t interested in the bustling atmosphere around her. Catching the look in her eyes, Nathaniel didn’t expose her thoughts immediately. “Sebastian, I’m putting you in charge of sending Ms. Lesley home.”“ Sebastian nodded. “Yes, Mr. and Mrs. Hadley. Be careful on the road.” Before leaving, Victoria grabbed Christina’s arm and said, “I heard Winston is going to part ways with David. The conflict between them has made them …
Chapter 711 Stay Out Of The Way However, Lyle did not return with the person Christina wished to see. “Mrs. Hadley, after Mrs. Lazuli visited Emilia, she disappeared. Her manager has already reported to the company that they can’t contact Emilia,” Lyle reported in a serious tone. “Emilia’s contract with the entertainment company has two years left before it officially expires.” Harboring dreams of stardom, Emilia sought to turn her life around through this avenue. What is her purpose if her disappearance isn’t forced but intentional? Is she trying to evade paying a penalty to the entertainment company for breaching her contract! However, there is no escaping the penalty. Emilia should know this well. “After Mrs. Lazuli left Emilia’s place, she went straight to the police station. There’s no doubt that Mrs. Lazuli reported to the police that you were the one who plotted against Anya.” Lyle added. “That is not Mrs. Lazuli’s intention. Find out Emilia’s whereabouts as soon as possible.” Without Emilia stirring the pot, Mrs. Lazuli wouldn’t have risked such a move without concrete evidence. In the evening. Nathaniel came to pick Christina up for a birthday banquet. The banquet was hosted by David, who was celebrating his mother’s birthday with such extravagance it could rival any opulent feast. Victoria and Sebastian, the subjects of intense public gossip, were also present. Christina was surprised to see them entertaining guests hand in hand. Christina seized the opportunity and pulled Victoria into a secluded corner. “What brings you here?” IfI remember correctly, I saw Preston’s name on the guest list. “Sebastian is attending the banquet as Mr. Hadley’s secretary, and I’m accompanying him as his partner. Is there a problem with that?” Victoria swirled the wine glass in her hand casually, her gaze tracing Sebastian’s every move. “Aren’t you afraid your brother will spot you?” Christina asked. “Afraid? Quite the contrary. I’m actually anxious that he isn’t here yet. Since his meeting Sebastian is inevitable, having them meet in advance isn’t such a bad idea,” Victoria said, draping her arm around Christina’s shoulder. Tonight, nearly half of Jadeborough’s prominent figures will gather here. My brother, who values his pride over anything else, wouldn’t dare make a scene in front of this audience no matter how upset he is about my relationship with Sebastian. Besides, aren’t you and Mr. Hadley here to support us? Mr. Hadley would never let anyone bully his people.” “By your words, if you married Sebastian, wouldn’t that make Preston Nathaniel’s and my brother–in- law?” Christina suddenly had this absurd thought. Victoria’s delicate face crumpled into a frown. “Ah, how did I not think of that? Mr. Hadley treats Sebastian like a brother. Christina, am I causing trouble for you? Perhaps I should slip away before my brother arrives! Christina’s gaze shifted to the entrance. She cocked a brow and said, “Too late. Preston is already here.” Victoria quickly hid behind Christina, poking her head out cautiously to look at the entrance. Unfortunately, Preston spotted Victoria the moment he stepped through the door. He walked straight toward Christina. “How long are you going to hide, Victoria?” Preston’s sharp gaze and well–tailored black suit set off his coldness and ruthlessness to the fullest. “Come here!” Victoria clutched Christina’s dress. “Preston, there are many people watching. Spare me some dignity. We can talk at home.” Preston had come with the intention of confronting Victoria. He let out a snort and said, “If you knew shame, you wouldn’t be messing around with a man out there.” The rebellious spirit in Victoria sparked to life. She stood forward, ready to lock horns with her brother. “What do you mean? Sebastian and I are truly in love with each other. We’re in a serious relationship.. Preston, you may not approve of us, but please, don’t insult Sebastian.” Victoria’s eyes reddened, tears welling up in them. “In your eyes, Sebastian may be an ordinary man, but to me, he is exceptional and ambitious. I won’t marry anyone but him.” If it were not for the greater cause, Preston wouldn’t bother about the trouble Victoria got into outside. “Stop this nonsense, Victoria!” Preston scolded harshly. He reached out to grab Victoria, but Christina stepped in between them. “Mrs. Hadley, this is a family matter between Victoria and me. Please stay out of the way.” Christina replied with a plain smile, “Mr. Lesley, tonight is Mr. Labarge’s mother’s birthday celebration. Victoria is here to join the celebration. It’s a joyous occasion. It seems inappropriate for you to cause a scene here, don’t you think?” …
