"Yes, this might be related to Norman. But Edie didn’t want to tell more details. So I need to find him and ask him."
"Where is she now? Is she at your house? I want to see her right now imdiately. It has been so many years. I really miss her," Aaron said excitedly.
But as he was about to stand up from his seat, Stuart pressed him down.
At the mont, Stuart looked angry. He emphasized to Aaron directly, "She is my wife. Don’t forget this."
"So what? She can still divorce you and get married to another man, couldn’t she?" Aaron said in a naughty voice.
All of a sudden, Stuart’s face changed. He squinted as if he would explode in front of Aaron at any ti. At the mont, he looked so scary, much scarier than ever before.
It has been five years. Stuart beca much more frightened.
Aaron was still frightened by him. For a mont, he wanted to give up in front of Stuart.
He smiled bitterly. It might be true that he was bound to be the loser in front of Stuart.
"I am just kidding? Tell , why do you want to see ? What can I do for you now?" Aaron sat back on the seat.
"I want you to take over the L.N group and be the president of the group. After all, Brittany is a girl. Besides, she didn’t like these things. So I have no other choice." Stuart told Aaron directly.
"..."
Hearing these words, Aaron looked at Stuart in shock. He was almost choked by a sip of water, "Are you kidding ? Co on, Stuart, I am a dead man for others. Besides, it took a lot to escape from this place. Do you really want to co back? Do you really have the heart to ask to co back? No, absolutely no. I don’t want to co back. Never."
"Mrs. Rose really misses you these days. She even gave up business in the group. After all, you are her only son. Besides, they got older now. Do you really want to spend your whole life drifting outsides?"
"I don’t think she ever took as her son. I am nothing more than a tool for her to achieve her goal," Aaron smiled bitterly. He raised the corner of her mouth, showing a helpless smile.
"So, you really made the decision? You wouldn’t co back?" Stuart asked him in a slight voice.
"It is not the right ti. When I want to co back, I would, don’t worry."
"Deik" Stuart called his secretary’s na suddenly.
Deik imdiately showed up with a cara and took lots of pictures of Aaron.
"What the hell are you doing?" Aaron froze.
"Those entertainnt reporters found you and started suspecting you faked the death. After Mrs. Rose was inford of this news, she would definitely search for you at any cost."
Deik said word by word in a serious tone.
Hearing these words, Aaron was too angry to say a word out.
"Stuart, you are being too an. How could you do this to ?"
"So, I told you. I can force you to co back. You are not allowed to go anywhere else. You should stay in London. I still have sothing to deal with. After handling all these things, I would give you the position."
Aaron held his head helplessly. He was so depressed, "Do I have other choices? What else do you need to deal with?"
"I need to weaken the power of the board of directors and completely eliminate the punishnt of the family. Laty would grow up. And I would never let her sacrifice for the group. Never. She should not be raised in such kind of family, either."
Stuart’s cold and dark eyes surged with a wave of anger and anxiety.
At the mont, the air around him seed frozen all of a sudden.
Hearing these words, Aaron felt hard to breathe. He looked towards Stuart in shock.
Though the Yates was the heir of L.N., it was the board of directors that really controlled the group. Ellison was the best example to show this.
He, together with Stuart’s grandfather, developed the group to be the top enterprises capable of competing with the governnt. But after Stuart’s grandfather passed away, Ellison was forced to guard the L.N. He promised to boost the group. He wouldn’t allow any failure.
Therefore, he sacrificed Stuart’s father, to deal with the problem Stuart’s grandfather left behind.
To convince William, Ellison killed Aaron.
Finally, he killed Stuart.
If Norman didn’t give him a hand, Aaron might really be killed.
It was not right to say that they took over the group. To be exact, Ellison chose the heir for the group based on how much profit the heir would bring to the group.
However, when the heir failed to benefit the group, the group might choose to kill the heir to preserve the group’s glory.
"The Yates always chose the boy to be the heir. If Brittany or I have a son after we got married, our son would be selected out rather than Laty. Laty wouldn’t be dangerous."
"I don’t dare to take risks. She is my daughter. She is Edie’s daughter. We learned how to do business since we were born and made a contribution to the group. I would not make Laty do this like us. She had her own life. Therefore, I would not leave until I deal with this problem."
Stuart clenched his fist tightly and said with determination.
"But...."Aaron frowned and asked Stuart word by word, "What if you fail? What if you fail to win Ellison? Besides, the group has been so powerful that it has already threatened Leon’s and the governnt. If you really weaken the power of the board of directors, the Yates would be the most powerful family. No one could control our family. What do you think another family would do when they realize the situation?"
It was not just the problem of the board of directors. After handling the board of directors, he still needed to deal with the top family, the Leon’s.
Aaron understood this, not to ntion Stuart. Certainly, Stuart had already realized this problem.
But Stuart really suffered from his childhood. He really didn’t want Laty to live like them. He wanted her to go to school with other kids happily, join in family parties, and invite her friends to her house....
However, if Laty was entitled as one of the Yates, she would never be allowed to do such things again.
He didn’t want to see this happening, so did Edie.
For his kids and wife, Stuart had to fight.
He had to do this.
"I have no other choice, I have to do this."
Stuart said in a cold voice. His voice sounded so cold that even Aaron trembled slightly.
Aaron frowned. He opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing. But finally, he held all the words back.
Stuart could do everything, for Edie.
"Okay. Whatever you do, I would stand on your side. Don’t forget that I still love the girl you love. So I also hope that she would live a happy life with her daughter."
"You can say you love her this ti. I can forgive you this ti. Don’t you dare to say that again? Otherwise, I would make you regret what you’ve said."
Stuart fixed his cold eyes on Aaron as if he wanted to shut his mouth up with his eyes.
Aaron showed a bitter smile, "Don’t be so selfish, okay. I still have the right to like a girl."
"No, you have no right to like her."
"Oh. Okay, okay. You have been so arbitrary. How could Edie put up with you for the rest of her life? So lucky for you. It is your luck for you to et her. I swear I would not lose her to your next life. I would get her before you."
"Impossible. She is mine. No one could take her away from . She is my girl forever."
Stuart said surely. Then he stood up and said, "I’ve already arranged accommodation for you. You can do it there directly. As for whether you want to go back to your ho or not, you can make the decision yourself. But you’d better not co to my house. I would appreciate your cooperation."
Then, the man turned around and left.
"..."
Looking at Stuart’s back, Aaron suddenly thought the man in front of him was like a wolf.
He would fight for his girl forever.
Now he even prevented him from visiting Edie. What was he worrying about? Was he worried that he might seduce Edie?
