Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 102

"You beast! Are you even a human being?! How dare you say that! Do you think we can't bring you down?" Claudia yelled in anger.

A vicious glint shone in Eric's eyes as he got slapped.

This annoying woman had always been hounding his mother and stepping all over her head. Moreover, Edward always fought against with him and robbed what was his. Just wait, Eric was sure to give her a piece of his mind!

"What are you doing, Claudia?!" Cameron shouted.

"Cameron Wilson, you fiend! Aren't you aware that Eric killed Edward?! Not only did you not punish him, but you are also defending him?!"

Claudia had just come to realise how selfish Cameron truly was. Was there another person who was even more biased and cruel than Cameron?

"Mum, don't bother with these scums. They are not worth losing our minds over," Irene said when she saw Claudia almost about to lose it. It would not be good to cause a ruckus in the hospital, especially immediately after Madeline's passing.

"We don't welcome you here. Please leave immediately. If you still value your conscience, let grandma go in peace," Irene said calmly.

Perhaps Cameron still had a conscience. Madeline had just passed away, and it didn't seem as though she had left anything behind for Irene and Claudia. Cameron whispered to Eric, "Hey, maybe we should take our leave first."

Just as both of them were about to turn and leave, Irene spoke up suddenly. She said, "Remember, the heavens are watching. You should behave, Eric."

Perhaps it was all in his mind, but Cameron felt a chill run down his spine. They were in a gloomy hospital, and Madeline had just passed away. He felt rather uncomfortable and decided to hasten his pace.

On the other hand, Eric paid no heed to it and sneered. Once he got his hands on the company, he had no need to fear! What could Irene do to him? All she had were empty threats, so he wasn't afraid.

...

They returned to the main estate.

"Eric, perhaps we should pray for Madeline and Edward," Cameron said uneasily. Perhaps he was more superstitious due to his age.

"Oh, c'mon Dad. Irene is just saying that to scare us," Eric said naturally as he looked at Cameron.

"Besides, I didn't kill Edward. Grandma died because she was in poor health and had received a large shock. Their passing has nothing to do with us. What are you worried about?" Eric said with disdain. To him, Edward was as good as dead.

"I mean, that's true. But I'm still-" Cameron said in worry.

"Don't think too much about it. We should now focus on getting our hands on the company in one fell swoop," said Eric.

He was impatient. Eric had failed previously, but things were different now. Now, the heavens had his back—he had the perfect time and opportunity. Who could stop him?

...

In the hospital.

"I'm worried that Eric and Cameron came here with bad intentions," Claudia said.

"It'll be alright, Mum. Whatever's going to happen will happen. Eric is the type to attack while Edward is away," Irene said.

"Now that Madeline has passed, I'm afraid they will be even more arrogant. What should we do?" Claudia said. She had a headache.

Edward was nowhere to be found, and Madeline had passed away. Nobody was around to keep Eric and Cameron in check. Were they going to let this opportunity slip?

Irene was also worried. Madeline had told her to protect the company and the Wilson family. What should she do?

Moreover, there was no news about Edward. Where was he? Was he alright? Irene hoped he would return safely and quickly.

Irene felt helpless.

...

Madeline's funeral was held a few days later.

The employees of the Wilson Group and S City's celebrities were present. Madeline was rather famous when she was alive. Before Gerald's passing, she had helped him with the company.

Madeline had a sharp and unique understanding of the business world. Gerald would often seek her opinion regarding the company. The couple were highly praised within the business field.

Gerald knew that his son was a good-for-nothing man. Cameron had a chaotic private life and had no ability or desire to do anything. Gerald didn't know what he had done to deserve such a troublesome son.

Nobody knew what would happen if he let Cameron succeed the company. All his hard work would be destroyed!

However, Edward was a wonderful grandson. He was talented in politics, and Gerald was happy to have found a successor. Gerald assigned an average position to Cameron that only looked good on paper, but held no real weight in the company's decisions.
