Fandrey asked her to stop thinking about Richard, so Deborah could only tell Veronica about this through a text message.
“I asked William about it and he said that Richard has a lot of women by his side. His lifestyle isn’t that good and he has a bad temper. He’s not suitable for Angel and your grandfather felt the same way as well. We should let this go and we’ll talk about it at a suitable time.”
Veronica relayed Deborah’s reply to Ornard, who laughed coldly when he heard what she said.
“This must be an excuse!”
“What? You mean William doesn’t want Richard and Angel to be together?”
“Yes! Richard’s character is just like William’s. William was also known as a player back then. Do you think he’s still the same after he got together with Valeria? People always say that birds of a feather flock together. I’m sure someone as pure as William would have friends with the same mindset as him. I don’t think William wants to introduce Richard to Angel.”
Veronica also felt that Ornard was right. “Why do you think William is doing this? Logically speaking, Richard is his good friend and Angel is his cousin. Shouldn’t it be better since he’s close to bother of them? Is it because he knows about Angel’s identity?”
Ornard did not take it seriously. “You’re thinking too much. Angel’s identity was hidden so well that the Floyd family doesn’t even suspect anything. William doesn’t have any superpowers, so how would he know about this? The reason that he stopped Richard and Veronica is that he wants the wealth for himself.”
“What do you mean? Is he thinking of taking the assets of the Floyd family?”
“Wouldn’t you be thinking about it? Everyone would want the assets of the Floyd family. Angel is useless, so isn’t William the Floyd family’s most legitimate heir? If William has this in mind, we would have to step up.”
“Ornard, do you have a solution?”
“Yes, the key to this matter lies in the Floyd family. The two elders of the Floyd family would need to take the initiative to contact Richard’s parents and bring up this marriage. The Clark family is not stupid, so they will never give up on a joint marriage with the Floyd family.”
“I don’t think the two elders of Floyd family are on good terms with Richard’s parents. The text message just now was very clear.”
“Then let’s find a way. We have to ask Angel to take the initiative to approach Richard and his mother. She has to pretend to be gentle in front of his mother, but she needs to seduce Richard. Veronica is so beautiful and Richard probably wouldn’t be able to control himself. As long as Richard makes a move on Angel, this matter will be settled.”
Ornard’s idea was very insidious and Veronica naturally agreed. However, she was worried that Angel would not listen to her. “Will Angel follow your plan? She has always done things impulsively. I’m worried that she’ll cause trouble again.”
“Don’t worry. She took the initiative to bring up Richard. Women are like moths to a flame towards men, so she will do anything to achieve her own purpose.”
Ornard grinned and said, “I’ll tell Angel to get ready.”
Ornard hung up and called Angel. “Angel, your mother has already told your grandmother about Richard.”
“What did grandma say?”
“Your grandmother went to William to ask about the situation. He said that Richard is a playboy, so he refused the suggestion,” Ornard sighed. “In my opinion, William doesn’t want you and Richard to be together.”
“Why?” Angel was angry.
“Because he wants the Floyd family’s inheritance. If you were with Richard, he would be able to take over the Floyd family with you. By then, William’s plan would be in vain.”
“William is going too far. He’s actually so vicious that he doesn’t want me to be with Richard. I have to get my way. Uncle, please think of a solution for me.”
“There is a way, but you have to take the initiative to find Helen and Richard. You have to let them know your good intentions and your feelings towards Richard. If Helen and Richard are interested in you, then you can have a smooth marriage.”
“What if they are not interested in me?” Angel asked.
“If you’re not interested, we’ll set Richard up and force him to give in to us. Anyway, we can’t give William any benefits.”
“Okay, let’s do this!” Angel was still furious when she hung up.
Everyone was going against her, so she had to fight back. The most urgent thing she had to do was to see Azalea first.
Angel told the bodyguard, “Go to the company and inform Azalea to come immediately. I want to discuss her variety shows.”
Meanwhile, in the hospital. Pierre was pushed by the servants back to the ward after he finished her treatment.
He had been hospitalized and suffered a lot these few days. Pierre had been born with a silver spoon and he had never had such a bad experience before.
Not only was he hurt physically, but he also had to compensate for Climax Space’s losses. This was why his father, Henry Anthony, had called and scolded him.
This time, Henry, who had always loved Pierre to the extreme, was really angry. Not only did he scold Pierre, but he did not care about his son’s injury at all. He also forbade Pierre’s mother to see him.
Pierre had never been ignored like this since he was born. In the past few days, he had been extremely depressed and he had no energy at all. He only lay in bed dazedly.
Pierre was staring at the ceiling when Paisley came, and she was extremely happy when she saw how haggard Pierre looked. She put the flowers on the bedside table and smiled. “Pierre, are you better now?”
When Pierre heard Paisley’s voice, he turned his eyes and saw disgust flashing in her eyes. These days, Paisley came to the hospital every day to see him. He felt even more depressed when he saw how happy Paisley looked when she visited him.
He was not a fool. He was so mean to Paisley before this, so it was impossible that she visited him out of goodwill. Paisley was here to laugh at him.
Pierre glared at Paisley in disgust. “Get out!”
Paisley was not angry. Instead, she sat down on the sofa in the ward and looked at Pierre with pity. “I asked someone to make soup for you. Have some! It’s good for healing your bones!”
Pierre couldn’t stand hearing this. “Who wants to drink your soup? Don’t act as if you care about me!”
Paisley did not seem to have heard Pierre’s words and gestured to Danya, who followed her. “Serve Pierre the soup!”
Danya immediately opened the thermos flask and poured out the bone soup for Pierre. This made him so furious that he knocked over the bone soup in Danya’s hand and ordered the bodyguards, “Tell these two bitches to get out of here! Immediately!”
Paisley sneered and stood up. “It’s okay if you don’t drink it. I’ll tell father about it.”
“How dare you!”
“Why wouldn’t I?” Paisley smiled contemptuously. “Let’s go!”
“You evil bitch! Don’t let me see you again!” Pierre cursed fiercely. He couldn’t move because of his injury, so he could only shout at her.
He cursed Paisley for a while before he received a message from the phone at the bedside. His face suddenly changed when he picked up the phone and glanced at it.
