At Alice’s question, Yanis shook his head, -Nothing.
At these words, Alice couldn’t help but frown, just as she was about to say something Megan said with a frank smile.
-Good thing you’re here, I have some business to take care of out there, so I’ll leave Alice in your care.
Yanis shot Megan a grateful look, then nodded vigorously, -Don’t worry, leave it to me.
Once Megan left, Yanis approached Alice.
-Alice, do you want some water, can I get you some?
As this was said, Alice couldn’t help but frown, and looked thoughtfully at Yanis.
-I’m fine, in fact you don’t have to take care of me here all the time, I’m not a sick person or a child, I can learn to take care of myself.
-Huh? That’s not possible,” Yanis shook his head vigorously. You’re not a patient or a child, but a pregnant woman, how can I leave a pregnant woman here alone?
Alice lowered her head and stroked her belly part.
It didn’t really occur to her that there was already another little life in her womb, but it was just at this moment….
Alice closed her eyes and sighed heavily, hoping that Kennedy would come back safe and sound and soon.
***
Shortly after the news of Kennedy’s crash spread, all the former shareholders of the Moore Group knew about it, but, curiously, they all remained silent, working as they should, and still relaxing as if the news of Kennedy’s plane crash had not reached their ears.
Oliver waited a few days in his own company, but in reality he did not receive any news, not even a single phone call.
He himself was in no hurry, but his assistant was so anxious that he went straight to the Moore Group, which after expressing his thoughts, the men on the board of directors did not even pay any attention to him and directly had the security guards throw him out.
He was so furious that he went back to the office to complain to Oliver and lost his temper.
-Mr. Oliver, I used your name and they really didn’t give a damn!
Sitting in his office chair, Oliver’s face was originally indifferent, but after hearing what he said, his eyes hidden behind his glasses shone with a touch of sadness.
But soon the gloom was hidden from him, and then he pursed his lips and stood up.
-Didn’t I tell you not to hurry?
The aide froze for a moment and said, -I am angry that none of them have come to our door for so many days, sir, you are also the son of the Moore family, why should Kennedy be able to control the Group by himself, and you alone have to control this little company. What is the reason for this? It’s because you are an illegitimate son….
Suddenly, the aide’s words stopped, and he saw that the aura surrounding Oliver had become so frightening and somber, completely opposite to his usual kind and refined appearance.
He was so shocked that he dared not say anything more.
The word “illegitimate child” was too heavy for Oliver.
Being an illegitimate son, because of Kennedy’s existence, Oliver could never inherit the Moore family fortune honorably, even if he had been born before Kennedy, but he still bore the name of illegitimate son, and even if his mother later turned out to be right, everyone in the circle knew that his mother was in fact a mistress.
If he had been strong enough, he could have shut those people up too.
But Leonardo Moore didn’t like him either, although he said privately that he would give him the company because he didn’t feel comfortable with Kennedy, but as it turned out, Kennedy was the president and he could only be a vice president.
The two were born enemies and he wanted to replace them, so naturally Kennedy would not be polite to him and would deliberately make things difficult for him in business.
The war between the two men almost never stopped.
-Since they don’t treat him well, you should stop going and be patient.
There was not much the assistant could do, but he could not say anything since Oliver was not even in a hurry.
This patience did not last long, as someone took the initiative to call Oliver in the evening.
-You must understand what I mean when I call you, right?
Maunel Acosta was one of the shareholders, before when he was still in the Group, Maunel was very optimistic about it, only Óliver knows this person of swimming between two waters.
After Kennedy took the helm of the entire Group, he did not meet with him again in private.
Now, the intention to call him was clear.
Oliver laughed coldly in his heart, but was polite on the surface, “Is there something you want to see me about?
Maunel let out a laugh on the other side and said at once, -Your assistant came in this afternoon and I heard the board mention it, still no word from Kennedy, but I’ve had people check that plane, a lot of people died.
-So what do you mean?
-Kennedy probably won’t be back, and if he dies, the Moore Group will definitely be yours to run.
Oliver remained motionless and unhurried, an imperative smile on his lips.
Seeing that he had been silent, the other party also hesitated for a moment and then said, -You, have you got that in mind?
Oliver smiled faintly, -You’re joking, you’ve heard about what happened this afternoon, I’m afraid it’s very difficult for me to get back into the Group.
-It’s not like there’s no way you can get in if you want to.
Oliver narrowed his eyes dangerously.
-The reason those old foxes on the board shut up was because you didn’t have any Moore Group shares in your hands.
In fact, this was something Ólover had guessed long ago, all those people had stumbled through the commercial industry, they were all sly old foxes, if you wanted them to nod, then you had to have shares.
-As far as I know, Leonardo has recovered quite a bit recently, hasn’t he? Maybe, you can go look for him,” Manuel’s laugh seemed especially sardonic and insincere over the phone.
Oliver pursed his thin lips and lowered his eyes, suppressing a darkness beneath them.
After Kennedy took control of the entire Moore Group, Leonardo developed mental problems and was admitted to a mental sanitarium.
Now Oliver was unsure of his recovery.
-The stock is in Kennedy’s hands, and if something really happens to him, then this stock…. Oliver, you must not let me down. In the past, when you were still with the Moore Group, I knew you were a person who did great things.
Oliver smiled coldly; he wouldn’t let himself be defeated either.
