Chapter 1507
"If he isn't getting anything from the Russells, why is he treating them so nicely? Why can’t he help me when I’m his brother-in- law? We’re his family, while the Russells aren’t! I bet he’s doing it for money! I just don't know how they made their deal.I knew this bastard wasn't the upright man he appeared to be, and he'd kept it hidden for a long time."
The more he said, the angrier he became until he abruptly jumped to his feet.
"I need to talk to him."
As he was about to leave, he saw Maria chasing after him.She was trying to stop him.
"What? Don’t stop me now! No matter what you do today, I’m going to find him! He must explain things to me clearly! He went overboard this time!"
"Why would I stop you? I’m coming with you!"
Maria picked up her handbag in a hurry as she said, "You’re right! We must get an explanation from him! We've been so nice to his family over the years and even treated his daughter like our own.
"Ree is jealous and grew distant from me because of that, but he isn’t even willing to grant us a project.It’s not like we’re asking him for a huge favor.What a horrible treatment for us!"
Maria ranted in frustration, letting out all the anger that she had suffered over the years.
"He must explain what happened to us! I even helped him find the miracle doctor for Anastasia.If it wasn’t for me, his daughter would've been dead by now!"
"It seems to me that he doesn’t love Anastasia that much either.Hmph!"
Fabian snickered.
"Doesn't he have a mistress? I bet he’s going to have another kid with his mistress soon.If he truly loves and cares about Anastasia, how could he do nothing after learning that she was poisoned?"
While following Fabian out the door, Maria suddenly realized something and stopped in her tracks.
"You’re right! Did he pretend to care about Anastasia all these years?"
"It’s nothing strange.After all, he’s good at pretending.Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been tricked by him!"
Fabian had a dark look on his face as he tried to hold back the anger that was building up in his heart.
Other than being mad, he was anxious as well.
If he cannot get this project, he must get something else as compensation.
