The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1751

Chapter 1751 Did You Talk Him Into It

In just half a day, news about Damaris Group spread across Horington and even caught the government's attention.

The police were mobilized to seal off Damaris Group's storehouse before investigators stepped into the company to get to the bottom of the scandal, freezing all the company operations.

Meanwhile, Hector was on his bed at a mansion in Horington.

Upon learning about the scandal, he clutched his chest, struggling to breathe.

Beside him, Kevin steeled himself and asked, “What should we do now, Old Mr. Damaris?”

Last night, Kevin had sent Hector to the hospital immediately after the latter had collapsed.

Fortunately, some medication was enough to help him recover since it was nothing major.

After that, the assistant transferred Hector from the primary residence to a mansion in a quiet village since he guessed things would get out of hand.

Although the old man had just gotten better, Kevin had no choice but to inquire about their next course of action since Hector was the only person who could salvage the situation now.

"Are you seriously asking me what to do? Why don't you ask yourself that? Why didn’t you tell me about what he's been doing?” Hector fumed at the question.

His breathing became more labored as he thought of everything that Jack did in the name of Damaris Group on the sly.

“Did you talk him into doing this? Speak!”

Hector could not believe how a child who grew up under the good influence of the Damaris family could do something so wicked unless someone swayed him.

He refused to believe that that greedy man was a product of the family.

Disconcerted by the accusation, the assistant quickly defended himself, “Old Mr. Damaris, you know what Mr. Damaris is like. He never listens to anyone—let alone someone like me! I indeed knew what he did, but it's equally true that I tried to dissuade him from doing it. There's nothing else I could do because he didn't want to listen!”

Damaris Group wouldn't have been caught in this quandary if he had listened to me and not crossed the Farwells!
