The Man Who Waited vs. The Man Who Wasted novel Chapter 435

Caleb clasped his hands together, displaying, for the first time, a father's genuine guilt and love.

"Marry Audrey."

Adrian's lips curled into a faint smile.

It was a smile dripping with cold detachment.

Caleb could read the indifference perfectly.

But he was a dying man with no cards left to play. He could only wager the last of the Preston fortune.

It was the absolute last thing he could do for his daughter.

"The Preston Corporation is gone, but the network and the foundation are still there. With your capabilities, you could easily rebrand and rebuild. It wouldn't take long for you to completely monopolize the logistics market."

"Once you integrate the new tech Nexus developed into logistics, it would be an unstoppable alliance. You'd control half of this city's economy."

"Adrian, don't tell me you aren't tempted."

Of course Adrian was tempted.

However, from the very beginning, he never actually planned on making Audrey his wife.

Before, Eleanor had forced his hand, and he'd had no choice but to play along.

But now...

"I'll think about it."

If marrying Audrey brought him an empire, it was certainly worth considering.

Caleb seemed to exhale a breath of relief.

"Give me an answer soon. As you know, my time is running out."

"I know."

Adrian paused for a moment.

"Do you know who did this to you?"

Caleb frowned. "The one who took me down?"

Adrian nodded. "Yes."

A deep hatred flashed across Caleb's face.

"I don't know. But they're powerful. An ordinary person could never dig up that kind of evidence."

Adrian refused to let it go.

"Who is your prime suspect?"

Caleb thought deeply.

"Julian Vance."

Adrian blinked, momentarily stunned.
