Eleanor Sterling’s eyes flickered with several changes, then she said, "Isn’t Wendy Warren’s cousin on the sa boat with her? Why would she help my brother and Wendy Carson?"
"The reason for her actions might be for The Sharp Family."
Hearing Alaric Faulkner say this, Eleanor thought it made so sense. If Wendy Carson and Xavier Keating got tangled up like this, the feud between The Sharp Family and The Keating Family might deepen.
The ultimate beneficiary of this matter is soone hoping The Keating Family and The Sharp Family will fight. So whose side is Wendy Warren’s cousin on?
The maid heard what Eleanor and Alaric said, and quickly replied, "Miss, I’m helpless in this situation, please let go. I still have a son to raise."
Alaric Faulkner’s eyes turned cold. The maid should have known the consequences when she did this; she was rely harboring so wishful thinking.
This matter shouldn’t trouble Eleanor.
Soft-heartedness is not a good thing.
Alaric gave a look to the bodyguard, signaling him to temporarily take the maid away.
The bodyguard imdiately took the maid away.
Eleanor kept thinking about what kind of background Wendy Warren’s cousin had.
She voiced her doubts to Alaric, whose dark eyes flashed with a hint of intrigue.
"There’s a bigger fish behind her. Perhaps we can use this to our advantage and lure him out."
"Maybe we could work with Xavier Keating and Wendy Carson to bring this person out together."
But right now, there’s no ti for her to think too much; currently, the matter on Xavier Keating’s side is more urgent.
Eleanor said, "Let’s set this aside for now; we need to rescue the person quickly and negotiate everything before everyone arrives."
...
At this mont, inside the study’s secret room.
Xavier Keating had returned to normal, his gaze gentle as he looked at Wendy Carson, whose face showed an unusual flush.
The room was filled with a suffocating atmosphere; Xavier Keating reached for the air conditioner remote to turn on the ventilation.
After a mont of silence, Wendy Carson spoke, "When can we leave?"
Xavier Keating’s eyes darkened, "Once the people behind this fail to catch us, we can leave."
Wendy Carson nodded, "Alright."
Now, she felt that staying with Xavier Keating, everything had an ambiguous air, making her extrely uneasy.
Xavier Keating slowly put on his clothes, his gaze at Wendy Carson much softer.
Now that he’s calm, he has ti to think.
From the mont he drank the tampered tea to what consequences would happen if this plan succeeded.
A mont later, Xavier Keating’s eyes carried a sharp edge, saying, "Wendy, this situation is deliberately instigated by soone to ruin your marriage with Carter Sharp."
Wendy Carson bit her lip and lowered her head, not expecting soone to set her up; if she and Xavier Keating were really caught...
Thinking of the consequences, Wendy Carson felt waves of helplessness; she feared that the Carson Family would lose all face because of her.
She took out her phone, showing it to Xavier Keating, "I ca here because a mysterious phone number sent a ssage about you, so here I am."
Xavier Keating took a look, but his focus was on Wendy Carson’s urgency to hear sothing about him.
Does this an Wendy Carson still has feelings for him?
He exited the ssage interface and saw Wendy Carson’s phone wallpaper was a photo of the two of them together.
Wendy Carson didn’t expect this, her complexion changed, and she quickly jumped to snatch the phone.
"You... you better give it back to ."
