Unwanted Fake Wife The Top Billionaire novel Chapter 359

Chapter 359 A Deal with the Devil

So there really was connection between them.

Elena raised an eyebrow slightly.

She had already suspected Nathan Hawthorne might be involved.

Now Lucas Carter’s investigation had only confirmed her suspicions further.

“Isn’t Nathan Ms. Hart’s husband?” Lucas still looked confused. “Why would he do something like this?”

He had spent the entire night thinking about it and still could not understand.

Nathan could practically be considered half a member of the Hart family already.

So why would he go to such lengths to target Richard Hart?

And Camille Hart…

From the looks of it, she seemed completely unaware of everything happening behind the scenes.

“Richard never treated him like family,” Elena said calmly. “So naturally, Nathan never truly treated Richard like one of his own either.”

“But the real question is–where did Nathan suddenly get so many connections and that much money?” The Hawthorne family had already abandoned Nathan completely.

Elena understood Charles Hawthorne’s personality/very well.

There was no way he would easily forgive Nathan for all the disgraceful things he had done before.

Unless-

Nathan had found himself another partner.

The moment that thought appeared, a name immediately surfaced in Elena’s mind.

She looked toward Lucas.

“You’re coming with me later. Cancel the rest of today’s schedule.”

Lucas had no idea where she intended to go.

But Elena had already convinced him in an incredibly short amount of time that following her had a much brighter future than staying loyal to Richard Hart.

“Yes, Chairwoman Sterling.”

Elena directly brought Lucas to Simon Kingsley’s company.

Even now, Lucas still looked bewildered.

“Chairwoman Sterling… why are we here?”

EverRise Holdings might not have existed for very long.

But Simon Kingsley was sull a Kingsley.

That surname alone was enough to ensure almost nobody dared offend him.

And judging by Elena’s expression—

She definitely was not here for casual conversation.

“Obviously because I have business with him.”

Elena smiled faintly.

She walked straight toward the front desk.

去

“Hello. I’m here to see Simon Kingsley. I’m Elena Sterling, chairwoman of Hart Group.

The employees at EverRise Holdings were clearly much more professional than those at Hart Group.

Even without an appointment, the receptionist remained polite.

“One moment, please. I’ll contact Mr. Kingsley immediately.”

“Thank you.”

One minute later, the receptionist personally escorted them toward the executive elevators.

“Mr. Kingsley is waiting upstairs for both of you. This way, please.”

“Thank you.”

Only after entering the elevator did Lucas finally react.

His tone instantly became nervous.

“You don’t actually think Simon Kingsley is helping Nathan Hawthorne, do you?”

“Yes.”

Elena did not deny it.

Simon and Carol had already collaborated with Nathan before.

And among everyone currently capable of helping Nathan–

There was no second possibility besides Simon.

However, Elena still did not fully understand Simon’s true capabilities yet.

That was why she came personally to test him.

If possible, she did not want direct conflict.

The best outcome would be convincing Simon to cut off his support for Nathan completely.

The elevator arrived at the top floor.

The moment they stepped out, a young female secretary was already waiting outside.

“Chairwoman Sterling,” the woman greeted politely. “I’m Chloe, Mr. Kingsley’s secretary. Please follow me.”

Elena followed behind Chloe while casually glancing around the office.

EverRise Holdings mainly focused on pharmaceuticals and medical equipment, while also investing in certain real estate projects.

Ever since Simon left Pinnacle Group-

EverRise Holdings had developed extremely well.

The company interior looked even more luxurious than many publicly traded corporations.

Soon, Elena finally saw Simon inside the chairman’s office.

Just like every previous meeting-

He remained stern and expressionless.

When he saw her enter, he merely nodded slightly

Then he instructed Chloe,

“Bring water. No coffee.”

Elena looked slightly surprised.

She had not expected Simon to even consider her pregnancy.

“Thank you, Uncle Simon.”

She thanked him before sitting down with Lucas after Simon gestured toward the seats.

“What brings you here today?”

Only after Chloe delivered the water did Simon finally ask.

“After thinking about last night, I felt it was necessary to apologize to you personally, Uncle Simon,”
