At this mont, at the Faulkner Family.
Nancy Nash used all her strength to carry out the Detoxification Technique Thomas Quincy had ntioned. Hazel Langley was fine now, and she could wake up the next day.
After they returned with Eleanor Sterling, she imdiately noticed that Clara Thornton was missing.
Upon checking the surveillance, Eleanor discovered Clara Thornton leaving with soone who closely resembled Thomas Quincy.
However, Thomas Quincy was occupied at the Quincy Family, otherwise he wouldn’t have sent Nancy Nash over to cure her.
Eleanor Sterling blad everything on Franklin Faulkner again, thinking he must have been behind it.
Just as Eleanor was gathering people to search for Clara Thornton, she received a call from Thomas Quincy, telling her that Clara Thornton was with him and was temporarily safe.
Eleanor Sterling finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She instructed Thomas Quincy to take good care of Clara Thornton and said she would visit the Quincy Family after she finished her work.
Actually, Eleanor Sterling wasn’t completely selfless; she didn’t send soone to bring Clara Thornton back, hoping Thomas Quincy would entertain her, perhaps to foster so affection between them.
Maybe, as Alaric Faulkner had suggested, sparks of love could really fly between Thomas Quincy and Clara Thornton.
If it turns out there’s nothing between them, she’ll abandon this idea.
Eleanor Sterling looked at Alaric Faulkner and asked, "Now that Hazel’s poison has been neutralized, a huge burden is lifted off my chest. Has there been any unusual activity from Franklin Faulkner?"
"Want to know?" Alaric Faulkner glanced at her, starting to act haughtily.
Eleanor Sterling couldn’t help but roll her eyes, but she still approached him and pestered, "Just tell , I want to know."
Alaric Faulkner snorted, "What’s in it for ?"
Shaless.
However, Eleanor Sterling still kissed him on the cheek, but just a cheek peck wasn’t enough; Alaric Faulkner held her close and indulged himself quite a bit before feeling satisfied.
Alaric Faulkner, holding Eleanor Sterling, said, "Franklin Faulkner has been contacting Gregory Faulkner and Gideon Faulkner frequently. It seems he’s trying to use them to stir up trouble in the Faulkner Family."
"He probably doesn’t know yet that we are aware of his plans, so let’s play along."
...
Franklin Faulkner received the news that Henry Foster was dead, knowing it was the Foster Family’s doing, possibly even by Miles Foster himself.
Others didn’t know, but he was aware that Miles Foster wasn’t a good person. Did he just provide Miles Foster with a good opportunity?
"I wonder what kind of thod Miles Foster used to capture Nancy Nash from the Faulkner Family?"
At that mont, soone rushed in to report, "Mr. Faulkner, we’ve received the latest news. Hazel Langley’s poison has been neutralized."
Franklin Faulkner was still smiling, but upon hearing this news, his face imdiately darkened, "What did you say!"
"Our people just reported that Nancy Nash neutralized Hazel Langley’s poison."
Franklin Faulkner ground his teeth, his expression turning ugly.
Damn it, was he busy for nothing? The carefully laid sche was easily broken; how would he threaten Jasper Faulkner now?
Now Eleanor Sterling must already be on guard, making it almost impossible to use such tactics again.
"What about Miles Foster? Didn’t he take Nancy Nash to Thomas Quincy for a swap?"
"Apparently... he captured the wrong person."
Franklin Faulkner’s face turned dark, "What a total waste. I just praised him for his thods, only to realize he’s completely useless."
"What should we do next?"
A cold murderous intent appeared in Franklin Faulkner’s eyes as he gritted his teeth, "Leave it for now. The Faulkner Family’s Family Head eting is in a few days. We’ll take them all down then."
Originally, he wanted to stir up chaos in the Faulkner Family to make his move easier, but now he had no choice but to go ahead with it.
Fortunately, he had already gained the support of a few people in the Faulkner Family, ready to coordinate from within when the ti ca.
Franklin Faulkner smiled sinisterly, curling his lips.
