By then, selling the Hall Clan’s stock at its peak and buying in at its lowest, the profit from this difference could be used to purchase half of the Jones Corporation’s shares when they are in a slump.
In doing so, he not only kicked his eldest son out of the Hall Clan but also gained half of the Jones Corporation. With such a transaction, no matter how it’s done, there wouldn’t be any loss. For William Hall, concocting a murder sche is nothing of significance.
A chilling agreent silently arose in the eyes of Adam Jones and Harry Hall.
"Such a thod of killing two birds with one stone is indeed good, but unfortunately, ideals are often full of promise, while reality was disrupted by his obedient son," quipped Adam with a hint of sarcasm.
Although unsure about what exactly Leo Hall was thinking, it was clear that his saving Elly Campbell aligned well with the wishes of these two brothers.
Adam Jones looked at Harry Hall, and in a rare good mood, he patted his shoulder in a gratified and joking manner:
"Perhaps your brother is a good man after all."
Harry Hall gave him a disgruntled look and shook off the hand resting on his shoulder, retorting:
"Yes, anyone who saves your wife must be a good person."
Though Harry’s remark was offhand, it inadvertently made Adam Jones think of Ethan White.
That man, after suddenly disappearing following his taking Elly to Antarctica, had never shown up again.
It was as if he had appeared out of thin air at that ti, only to vanish just as mysteriously.
Adam always felt there was sothing more behind Ethan White’s appearance. Elly once ntioned that Ethan said the Jones Family owed him sothing.
But Adam didn’t have a clue who Ethan White was; he couldn’t even trace any of the man’s life’s tracks, completely lacking any leads.
Now that he suddenly left without a trace, it didn’t make Adam feel any more at ease.
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing Adam suddenly beco absent-minded, staring blankly without uttering a word, Harry couldn’t help but ask.
Adam ca back to his senses, stifling the rush of thoughts that had flooded his mind, and shook his head, saying, "Nothing much."
He didn’t want to dwell on Ethan White and, after talking to Harry a bit more, he left.
The mountain area infrastructure project had already begun, and Elly Campbell was getting ready to accompany the project team into the mountains.
Before departing, she instructed the hospital bodyguards, with an air of unease, to keep a tight watch on the door, not allowing any strangers to enter.
Only after repeatedly ensuring that everything was in order did Elly feel at ease to prepare to head towards the mountain area.
However, on the very night of her departure, an incident occurred at the hospital.
The bodyguards were keeping watch outside the door as usual in rotation.
At this ti, the doctor would routinely co to Helen lendy’s ward to change her dication.
The bodyguard opened the door for him and allowed the doctor and nurse to enter, then resud his dutiful watch outside.
On the tray, there was a syringe and several glass vials containing dicine powder, which did not seem any different from the dication usually mixed in Helen lendy’s IV bottles.
Outside the door, the lead bodyguard, although he had let the masked doctor in, felt sothing was off.
The next second, with a stern expression, he said to his subordinate, "Stay here, I’m going to check inside."
After speaking, he directly pushed open the door to the ward.
The doctor hadn’t expected the bodyguard to suddenly enter and hesitated for a mont while injecting the dication into the IV bottle, his eyes flashing a trace of panic.
"Is there a problem?"
The doctor asked, looking at him.
"Has Miss lendy changed doctors?"
The head of the bodyguard asked.
The doctor in the white coat was montarily taken aback, then nodded, "Dr. Charles is on leave today, I’m covering for him."
