Breaking Point of Divorce (Hugh and Bethan) novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279 Keating’s Assistant

As soon as Bethan reached out to push Hugh away, she looked up and met Hugh’s dangerous gaze, making her heart pound.

Just as Bethan was overthinking, Hugh’s phone rang.

Hugh released Bethan and turned to answer the phone.

Bethan clearly heard Jacob’s voice from the phone. “Mr. Cavill, the ten-billion-dollar project you just secured has been snatched away.”

Bethan muttered, “Who has the capability to take a project from Cavill Group?”

Hugh turned around, his face dark.

At ten in the morning, Hugh arrived at the office.

Jacob said, “Mr. Cavill, the competitor is someone from Mr. Keating’s side.”

Hugh tapped his fingers on the desk a few times and said, 141.0.

“Get the car ready, we’re going to Keating Mansion.”

Jacob stood still without moving. “Your parents are already at Keating Mansion.”

Hugh leaned back wearily in his office chair. After a brief pause, Hugh instructed Jacob, “Prepare for a flight to Australia this afternoon.”

I must secure this project.

At the same time, inside Keating Mansion….

Andy heard that his grandson had maliciously competed and snatched the Cavill family’s ten-billion-dollar project, and he too found it hard to believe.

Andy asked James, “Is this true?”

James sat in his wheelchair, eyes downcast.

He nodded in admission while handling the bracelet in his hand. “Hugh has been too arrogant. As his elder, I simply couldn’t stand by and watch, so I taught him a lesson.”

saying, “Mr. Keating, if you have any issues, you can state them openly. Although your family and Fiona’s family indeed have a feud, our Cavill family hasn’t offended you, has it?”

James looked up. “Offending my primary doctor is offending me.”

Ryan and Fiona exchanged a glance.

Fiona said, “Mr. Keating, if Hugh did something wrong, as his elder, you should discipline him. Ryan and I have no objections. But for them to get a divorce, is it necessary for you to start a business war?”

James shook his head. “This isn’t for you to decide.”

Ryan’s temper was starting to flare. He stood up and said, “Sir Keating, Mr. Keating, the Cavill family has always helped mediate the relationship between you and Fiona’s family, to turn hostility into harmony. Never did we expect you to turn your guns on the Cavill family.

“Mr. Keating, although you are an outstanding talent with formidable methods, the Cavill family is not to be affled with either. Cavill Group has dealings with the18:01

If you insist on this, then we accept your challenge!”

Ryan’s attitude was unyielding, and Fiona could only follow him out.

After the two left, Andy’s cane came swinging down. “You wretched scoundrel!”

James easily caught Andy’s cane.

James said, “Grandfather, we won’t necessarily become enemies with the eight prominent families. But for as long as Hugh drags his feet and refuses to divorce Bethan, I will snatch every project he has.”

Andy stomped his foot and tapped his cane. “Bethan is Hugh’s wife.”

James patted Andy’s shoulder. “I know, Grandpa.”

A little over an hour later, Ryan and Fiona arrived at Hugh’s office.

Hugh asked his parents, “What did Mr. Keating say?”

you

Hugh said, “Mom, I have my methods to secure my position as CEO and keep those foxes on the board in check. Competitors like Mr. Keating aren’t new to me. If Mr. Keating insists on competing with me, I’ll see it through to the end.”

After a slight pause, Hugh said, “But I will not agree to a divorce.”

Ryan slammed the table and stood up. “The Cavill family is a century-old prominent family. Even losing a few more projects won’t shake our foundation. Business is like war. If the Keating family truly wants to be our enemy, you don’t need to show them any mercy either!”

Hugh observed Fiona’s reaction and said, “Dad, Mr. Keating and Mom are, after all, half-siblings. This matter started because of me. I will try to mediate.”

Fiona didn’t expect Hugh to consider her.

They were self-interested. Their own principles always came above human feelings. Faced with any situation, they could weigh things calmly and also act decisively.

But when it came to relationships, every single one of them was an idiot.

During the lunch break, Bethan received a call from Hugh and came out of the hospital.

Hugh wordlessly dragged her into the car.

Bethan faintly sensed that Hugh’s mood was a bit off again.

She rolled her eyes helplessly, waiting for Hugh to speak first.

Hugh stared fixedly at Bethan and said, “I didn’t expect you to have this kind of capability.”

Bethan genuinely couldn’t tell if Hugh was praising or mocking her.

“Could you please speak more clearly?”

Hugh said, “Mr. Keating snatched Cavill Group’s ten-billion-dollar project to force me to divorce you. Did

you know about this?”

Bethan’s heart trembled.

I just mentioned it casually, and James actually used a ten-billion-dollar project to pressure Hugh into divorcing

How can I ever repay such a huge favor?

From Bethan’s reaction, Hugh knew she had been kept in

the dark.

Hugh said, “Bethan, the Cavill family is a century-old prominent family. The title of the richest family in New York isn’t for nothing. If Mr. Keating starts a business war against the Cavill family over this, he will face not just the Cavill family, but also the several families behind the Cavill family. Is this what you want to see?”

Bethan felt guilty inside.

She knew what Hugh said was true. But she didn’t want to back down.

Bethan said, “Hugh, things have already come to this. Just divorce me, it will be better for everyone.”

Hugh gripped Bethan’s arm and pulled her closer.

He looked into Bethan’s eyes and said, “Bethan, I have let you down, but I have my principles. I did not betray you. I’ll accept any punishment from you, but divorce is not an option.”

Even at this point, Hugh still refused to divorce, and Bethan was out of ideas.

She Said indifferently, “Hugh, if you’re not afraid of mể:01
