The Sanderson Family in Ensfield had nothing to do with Westley. They had no relationship whatsoever, either personally or professionally.
The only reason Westley cared about this matter was because Gabrielle was involved. Otherwise, he would not have interfered in the affairs of this family.
Each member of this family was dangerous, from the four sons to the seven grandsons. It wouldn't be easy for Westley to deal with them.
Anyone with a modicum of common sense would keep their distance from this family. Messing with the Sandersons was like having a death wish.
"You said they have seven grandsons?" Gabrielle asked in shock.
She would never have believed that the Sanderson Family was so big. She thought there were at most five young men in this family and that Denton was the youngest.
Gabrielle was utterly stunned to discover that there were seven young gentlemen in the family.
"These are not people to mess with. You could see for yourself how tough these three guys were. Well, their four cousins are just as tough. I found out that it was the third grandson of the Sanderson Family who was the mastermind behind the plot to assassinate Victor. It is quite possible that Nathan was also involved in it to some extent. Some time ago he came to Bangkok to supposedly attend a jewelry show. However, I'm convinced he actually came for Victor. Luckily, we acted early and the Campbell Family took Victor. Nathan can't get Victor while he's with the Campbell Family," Westley said coldly.
They had been very lucky that the Campbell Family agreed to keep Victor. Otherwise, they would be in serious trouble now.
"I really feel sorry for Victor. How can brothers turn against one of their own like this? And the height is that they are trying to kill him... Is he at least still alive?" At this moment, Gabrielle was really concerned about Victor. After all, she was the one who asked Westley to save him.
Gabrielle felt it was all her fault. If she hadn't asked Westley to save Victor, she wouldn't have gotten into trouble with the Sanderson Family and they wouldn't be pursued so much by members of this sinister family.
Anyways, it was no use regretting now.
"He's alive. Don't worry about him. He is safe with the Campbell Family. Victor is smart and he knows that the best for him right now is to stay at the Campbell Family's place to heal his wounds. However, the Sanderson Family won't give up until they have found and killed him. The fact is Victor is the only one at the head of the Sanderson Group. As long as he's alive, no one else can get control of the business. So, he's still in danger. At least six prominent members of his own family want him dead. But Victor is a cunning businessman and there's no way he would risk his own life." Westley's face was expressionless as he spoke.
For her part, Gabrielle was rather uncomfortable. By now, she had understood the full extent of the threat hovering over them. "This place is safe for Victor, but it's too dangerous for me. Let's go back early, okay? No one knows what could happen tomorrow," she said to Westley.
The last thing she would want would be to run into any young son of the Sanderson Family. She would not tolerate it if each of these brutes was after her.
She had no intention of waiting to ask them what they wanted from her.
She just didn't want to have anything to do with the Sanderson Family, especially after her encounter with Denton.
"We'll go back to Antawood in two days. Soon, this whole town will be full of members of the Sanderson Family. We definitely can't stay here any longer." After saying that, Westley started the car and drove back to the villa.
Gabrielle was really nervous now. She had been wondering why the Sanderson Family was after her. Now she had her answer.
What was this family where brothers turned against each other? Gabrielle realized that she would have to be careful about who she got close to in the future.
However, she also had this feeling that it was fate that caused her and the Sanderson Family's paths to cross.
Perhaps God felt that since she married Westley, she was too happy, so he decided to put her into trouble.
Westley noticed Gabrielle's uneasiness and tried to comfort her. "Don't worry. When we go back to Antawood, we won't have anything to do with the Sanderson Family anymore. Everything will be fine then," he sai
d gently.
Westley said this both for Gabrielle and for himself. In reality, he wasn't sure that things would return to normal once they returned to Antawood.
The fact was that too many things had happened during their stay in Bangkok. Even though they wouldn't admit it, some things had changed.
"I know that, Westley. I believe everything will be fine when we go back to Antawood," Gabrielle said in earnest, holding Westley's hand tightly.
