To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1360

Octavius said nothing. He knew Gilbert thoroughly researched his standing in the Bradshaw family. He didn't have to worry about anything in that family, but he had not married into their family to simply not be worried.

"Are you sure that you can take control of the Bradshaws?" Octavius was moved, but he doubted Gilbert's abilities.

Gilbert smiled. Things seemed to be going smoother than he expected. He hadn't expected Octavius to go against the Bradshaws so easily. He thought he would have to work to convince him.

The corners of his lips curled upward. "I can't do it alone, but I have the Walters and the Fausts backing me up. With their combined forces, don't you think I'd be able to do it?"

"If you count them in, you'd be able to. But are you sure they wouldn't plunder the Bradshaws for themselves once everything is settled?" Octavius had heard that Gilbert was close with Jenny, but no one could be trusted in the face of profit.

Gilbert sneered, not taking him to heart. "This is my business. You don't have to think about it. You only need to be sure you obtain a large amount of money."

Octavius was stunned. That made sense.

"Alright. I'll work with you." After so many years of being a househusband, he had enough. Once he had the money, he wanted to live a luxurious life.

These years, Esther guarded him like a hawk, but she had a few lovers outside the household. Octavius had been unable to bear it for a long time now.

"That's it, then. You may go home now. I will have someone contact you to let you know what I need from the Bradshaws." Gilbert stood up, feeling that he had nothing more to say.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Octavius quickly said, "Do you…hate me?"
