Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 1063

Chapter 1063 Stop Acting Innocent With Me

His words showed no mercy.

To Yvonne, he sounded like he was cursing her father.

She gritted her teeth and scolded, "I think you're sick and can't distinguish right from wrong."

Eddie slapped away her finger that was pointing at his face. "Did you develop feelings for Bryan Jones after abusing him? So you start feeling sorry for him now that he's hospitalized?"

He thought that Yvonne was standing up for Bryan.

"Hey, don't change the topic. I asked you to deal with Bryan Jones, but why did you target the Kepler Family?"

Eddie was stunned. "When did I target the Kepler Family?"

His face suddenly turned dark—he was framed!

He was still unaware that such a big thing had happened.

He immediately turned to Brandon. "What happened?"

Brandon didn't know what happened either. He didn't receive any information about Benjamin at all.

The informants on Vania and Hanson's sides did not send any feedback.

At this point, he could only apologize, "My apologies, sir, for being incompetent."

"Good that you know." Eddie was infuriated.

One missed message could ruin everything for him.

To Yvonne, Eddie and Brandon looked like they were putting on an act.

Fuming, she interrupted their conversation. "Stop acting innocent with me."

Someone had already reported to her that Eddie had been using her name to gain Benjamin's trust.

Apparently, he had swindled more than 150 million out of the Kepler Family, as well as countless underground manpower.

This was what caused Bryan to be hospitalized.

Now, the Jones Family had shifted the blame to the Kepler Family. When Benjamin learned the truth, he was so infuriated that he fell ill and was now in critical condition.

Fortunately, he was rescued in time and managed to escape death.

Yvonne stared at Eddie with bloodshot eyes.

"Don't fall for their trap. I didn't do it," he said. Yvonne usually wouldn't listen to his persuasion, let alone now.

She sneered. "You're killing someone by another's hand. Now you're just sitting back waiting to reap the benefits, aren't you? I'm telling you, it's not going to happen."

This was a tactic to drive a wedge.

Eddie's face turned dark. "Vania Greyson, Hanson Luke, you two are really good at playing this game."

He was caught off guard by this move.

Little did he know, this was not Vania's scheme whatsoever. Benjamin brought it upon himself, and Vania only beat him at his own game.

Eddie knew he had lost this round.

He and Yvonne were already in an irreparable situation.

After such a long time of planning, he finally earned the support of the Kepler Family, but everything was now ruined.

Resentment almost swallowed Eddie. The veins on his forehead bulged.

But in Yvonne's eyes, his response represented an admission of guilt.

"Arghh!!!" Yvonne screamed and rushed forward, squeezing Eddie's neck with all her might.

"I'll make you pay with your life!" Anger fueled her strength.

Eddie's face turned white due to a lack of oxygen.

However, this was Eddie's territory, so Yvonne couldn't just have had her way.

Brandon had immediately ordered his men to pull her away.

"Young Master, are you okay?"

Brandon checked on Eddie with concern.

"This is not what you should be concerned about. Get rid of her."

Since things had come to this, he didn't want Vania or Hanson to benefit from it either.

Of course, Yvonne wouldn't continue to stay here.

The moment Eddie gave the order, she fled.

She ran all the way to the hospital.

But as soon as she entered the hospital gates, she was caught.

"Let go of me! Let me in." Yvonne struggled.

The person who had passed on the message to her said that Benjamin's condition was critical and he could go at any time.
