Even After Death

Ethan knew what Olivia meant.

"Don't worry, Liv.

I've asked someone to look into it.

It's just that it's not going to be easy." After all, he was mainly influential and powerful in Arlandia.

Wielding his authority here was quite difficult.

Furthermore, Brandon had planned for this for many years.

It wouldn't be easy to track him down.

That was why David couldn't sleep lately.

The men he dispatched would end up missing.

There was no news as of today.

Ethan ended up fainting after kneeling for two days straight, but the Fordhams stood firm with their stance.

1 Sean coldly said, 'He should've died there." Troy agreed, "Bad guys tend to live longer than the good guys." David hummed in response.

"Throw him out.

What an eyesore." Olivia shut her eyes, feeling helpless.

It seemed like they wouldn't accept him for the time being.

Avery, who didn't hate Ethan that much, approached Olivia.

" Jacqueline has the money ready." "Let the show begin." She smirked.

Jacqueline traveled as quickly as possible overnight.

Avery had put on makeup to look sickly.

He coughed.

"Jacqueline, you're here." "Avery, it's only been two days, but your complexion looks bad.

You must hold on." "Don't worry, Jacqueline.

It's not like it's my first day.

It's not a big deal.

Did you manage to gather one billion dollars?" "Yes.

How are things going lately?" "Don't worry.

As long as I'm here, I'll make sure to secure Dad's company." He coughed again.

"Jacqueline, I'll be counting on you in the future." "You'll be fine, Avery." Despite that, she wished for him to die sooner.

Once he was dead, Fordham Group would belong to her! Jacqueline had to admit that Avery had held on for way too long considering his illness.

When the issue of the shares was settled, it would be time for her to send Avery off.

No matter how well she acted, Avery could notice the murderous intent in her eyes.

Just why didn't he catch on to it in the past? There was a shareholders' meeting the next day.

To be more precise, it was a war among the Fordham family members vying over the right to the company.

David's family, which used to be respected by all, now received rude treatment from others.

Their relatives didn't even try to be courteous.

"Can't believe that they have the guts to come." "We showed them respect and allowed them to wield so much power within the family.

Who knew they'd turn out to be outsiders? "If I were you, I would've stayed at home.

I wouldn't have the courage to come here.

Is it not enough to have taken advantage of us for so many years?" Avery finally knew what betrayal tasted like.

These people used to treat him with respect just to gain more benefits from him.

Their attitude had taken a 180 turn.

Graham snorted.

"Avery, how does it feel now? Can you get used to it after being the big shot for so many years? Don't worry, you'll get used to it soon.

We'll make sure to oust you guys out of the company!" The calm Avery looked at Henley.

"Uncle Henley, do you see us the same way too? We were once a happy family when Grandpa was still around.

But you turned your back against us when it hasn't been long since he's dead.

He could be watching up there." 1 After his son's death, Henley was no longer as healthy as he seemed in the past.

His eyes were dark.

"Graham is right.

Outsiders should leave this place as soon as possible.

And you should return the assets to us before leaving!"
