Chapter 2255
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 2255 Terror Harrier questioned Hazel, âHazel, are you crazy? The fact that Francesca released her snake to poison your father to death was clear as day! What does it have to do with Mrs. President? Who brainwashed you to act like a lunatic?â
Hazel lifted her head to look at Harrier. âHarrier Harrington. âYou werenât present when the incident occurred, and you didnât examine my fatherâs body or investigate the case after the incident occurred. Do you even understand whatâs going on? Why do you insist that this has nothing to do with Mrs. President?â
âWhat reason does she have to do this?â Harrier threw the question back at her. Kevin chimed in, âHeâs right. Why would Mrs. President want to kill your father? She has no reason to do so.â
âThereâs no need for me to explain her motive for murdering my father because both of you know it better than I do. Weâre all clear on the situation, so letâs not pretend to be dumb.â Hazel stared at them with annoyance. âYouââ
Hazel uttered furiously, âYou guys assume that by cornering Mr. Lindberg and placing the Lindberg family in the presidentâs control, youâll reap more benefits. I think thatâs just a foolish fantasy. Since the president used such unscrupulous methods to deal with Mr. Lindberg, he can use similar methods to deal with us in the future. Once the Lindberg family is completely under their control, we would have served our purpose, and we would meet our doom!â
Upon hearing those words, Kevinâs expression changed greatly as his eyes darted around amidst his state of panic.
âI think that thereâs something wrong with your brain.â Harrier paid no heed to Hazelâs words. âWhy are you spouting nonsense? Everything happened because the two of you are competing over jealousy! Why must you drag the president and his wife into your sordid affairs?â
âWhy are you still putting on an act? Whatâs the point?â Hazel couldnât be bothered to reason with them anymore.
âItâs only natural that you think youâre the greatest beneficiary. After all, someone will have to take charge of Lindberg Corporation in the future. The Atkinson family has fallen, Mr. Lindberg is no longer here. and Mr. Yarrow isnât presentable. Hence, youâll be the one at the helm. However, do you really wield any substantial power? Youâll be a puppet at most.â
âYouââ
Harrier wanted to retort her, but Hazel could not care less and had already walked away.
As Harrier stared at her retreating finger, his face turned red with rage. He then gestured at his subordinate to follow Hazel.
His personal subordinate immediately brought his men along and trailed after Hazel.
When Kevin saw that, he was flustered, and his expression grew all the more complicated.
Harrier patted Kevin on the shoulder and consoled him. âMr. Yarrow, donât listen to that bratâs words. She is trying to frighten you.â
Alas, Kevin was terrified and uneasy. âNo, her words make sense. Think about it! Danrique is such a mighty person but has been destroyed by the president and his wife so easily. If the president wants to target us in the future, wouldnât it be as easy as crushing an ant? We tried so hard to cooperate with them and target Danrique. However, when the president has control of Lindberg Corporation, will he kick us to the curb?â
Harrier chuckled. âYouâre overthinking. Lindberg Corporation is a large company. Someone needs to take charge of it. We are the most familiar with the companyâs operations, so how can it operate without us? That aside, even if the president wants to gain control of Lindberg Corporation, he would have to do so behind the scenes. We will still be in charge of it superficially. Otherwise, what will the public say about them?â
âThatâs true.â Kevin heaved a sigh of relief.
Harrier patted the other manâs shoulder again. âDonât overthink. I need to tie up some loose ends. You should find some time to go to the Lindberg residence to get their legal seal.â
âHow am I going to pull that off?â Kevinâs face turned pale with fright. âThat Francesca girl has got a bunch of flying and prowling beasts to look after the place. My men will be devoured by the animals before they can even step foot into the castle.â
Harrier did not hesitate to pressure Kevin. âCome up with a plan! Iâll leave this matter to you. I still have to meet Mrs. President. All the best!â
Thereafter, Harrier hurried away.
