Gurmisran wiped the sweat from his forehead when he heard that and he still wanted to resist.
“I… I can tell Ornard that I was tricked by you and that wasn’t my intention at all. Ornard… he will let me go for the sake of my loyalty.”
“Are you still dreaming? You didn’t do your job well from the very beginning. Ornard asked you to replace my cousin and kill her, but my cousin is still alive and well. Angel just enjoyed a few years of her life in the Floyd family after you exchanged her. If Ornard knew that my cousin was still alive, he would probably shoot you in the head.”
“She’s still alive? How is that possible? I… I left her in the suburbs and it was such a cold day… she can’t be alive!” Gurmisran didn’t believe it.
“Aren’t there exceptions for everything? The heavens couldn’t bear your evil deeds and made an intervention happen, which lead to the complete failure of the plan.”
Gurmisran was extremely shocked. “I don’t believe it! Who is the child grow up to be? Tell me who it is!”
“Why should I? What right do you have?” William sneered. “I’ll give you two choices now. One is to be Ornard’s son-in-law and watch Ornard’s daughter give birth to your child. If you do well, you may inherit Ornard’s family property in the future.”
“This…” Gurmisran was stunned for a moment. He thought that William would ask him to do something impossible, but he didn’t expect it to be like this.
Gurmisran always felt that there was still a way out for him, so he asked in a hoarse voice, “What about the second choice?”
“The second choice is that I’ll get someone to tell Ornard that you slept with Angel. I’ll send all the videos and information about you to Ornard and he can do whatever he wants. He will definitely punish you heavily by then. You should count yourself lucky if Ornard lets you go out of friendship. However, I don’t think Ornard he’ll let someone as disgusting as you live. Even if he doesn’t let you die, you will lose everything and live a miserable life.”
Of course, Gurmisran knew that Ornard was cruel and merciless.
Ornard had always thought that the scheme against Richard had been settled. If Ornard knew that the child in Angel’s belly wasn’t related to Richard at all, it would be impossible for him to let Gurmisran off.
Gurmisran knew that he had no other choice, but he wanted to try his best to struggle and he even wanted to discuss the conditions with William. “Will you let me go if I choose the first option?”
“What do you mean? I can tell you with certainty that I won’t take your life, but things in the business world depend on your own ability. I will suppress Ornard as much as I can, but you still have to use your own abilities to take over Ornard’s assets. You need to marry his daughter and take over the Laban family. You’ll end up miserably if you can’t do it well. I’m not afraid to tell you that the Floyd family and I will not let go of Ornard. Since both of you are in the same boat, we won’t treat you kindly as well.”
Gurmisran looked at William desperately and said, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll go against you? You can’t expect what I’ll do when I’m desperate.”
“You’re nothing but a piece of trash and you’ll suck up to anyone in order to live. Don’t you already know that you’ll either be killed by Ornard or me?” William looked at him sarcastically. “My patience is limited. Do you want to die immediately or grasp another chance at life?”
It was better to live than die. He still had a chance if he picked the first choice. If he chose the second option, Gurmisran will be killed by Ornard because he knew too many secrets and his family will be implicated as well.
He had to choose the first option if he wanted to stall for time. Maybe he could find a way to deal with this during this period of time as well.
Gurmisran made a choice when he thought of this. “I choose the first option!”
“This is a wise choice!” William smiled faintly. “In fact, you should thank me. How can you be Ornard’s son-in-law if it wasn’t for me? Since Ornard doesn’t have a child yet, you will have a chance to inherit Ornard’s wealth if you work hard.”
Gurmisran showed an ugly expression on his face. If he had known that he would be plotted against, he would not have gone that night. Having slept with Angel was not a good thing for him at all, but a huge problem instead.
Of course, William knew what Gurmisran was thinking. He chuckled and said, “Well, you should do something that a normal man will do since you know that Angel is pregnant with your child. You should take care of your future wife in person and cultivate your relationship with her.”
Could Gurmisran even refuse it? He asked with a sad face, “She… Angel doesn’t know, right?”
“Of course, not. Wouldn’t she kill you if she found out that she is pregnant with your child?”
William smiled sarcastically. “Well, let’s keep this matter short. Since we have reached an agreement, I want Angel to move into your house tomorrow.”
“This… this is too fast, isn’t it? I’m afraid I won’t be able to prepare in time. Can you give me a few more days?” Gurmisran begged.
William didn’t give him a chance. “It’s your business. If you can’t even do such a small thing, how can you plot against Ornard’s family business?”
Gurmisran didn’t dare to argue with William, who simply waved his hand and said, “Okay, you’d better deal with it now.”
Gurmisran had no choice but to get up and leave obediently. When he left, Bobby couldn’t help but ask William, “Sir, this man doesn’t look like a good guy at all. I’m afraid he will have plenty of vicious schemes up his sleeves.”
“Don’t worry.” William smiled. “Gurmisran won’t be willing to accept the current situation. He wouldn’t be able to bring himself to do it since he has been working for Ornard for so many years. However, he has no other choice now and he will probably start to have his own plans after I told him this piece of news. He has worked for Ornard for so long and he has never been a boss before.”
“Do you mean that Gurmisran will take Ornard’s place? Does he dare to do that?” Bobby asked suspiciously.
“Of course, he wouldn’t when he didn’t have any hope, but it’s different now. Ornard has so many assets and Gurmisran’s child will be his only grandchild. If he can find a way to kill Ornard, Angel, and the Laban family, then his child will be the only heir.”
Bobby touched his head and said, “So that’s how it is. Since Ornard is so cunning, he probably won’t let Gurmisran succeed easily.”
“Of course not, but Gurmisran knows Ornard the best because he is Ornard’s most trusted subordinate. Ornard probably didn’t think that Gurmisran would have the guts to do something to him, so he definitely wouldn’t be on guard if Gurmisran stabbed him in the back.”
William laughed and said, “At that time, we will add fuel to the fire and help Gurmisran. Then, we will deal with him when he succeeds. These heartless people have done so many bad things, so it’ll be impossible for them to have a happy ending.”
