โYo, Mr. Tudor, that big cruise shindig in Lisbonโs just around the corner. Iโll get your suit ready,โ Nolan said, glancing back. โYou taking Ms. Russell with you?โ
Alexander gave a nod.
โNolan,โ Alexander sighed, looking up. โCheck out the medical records from the night I got snatched.โ
Nolan hesitated, but then quickly replied, โOn it!โ
โMs. Russell, Gabrielโs toast.โ
In a cafรฉ, Esme, rocking some shades, took a sip of her coffee. Hearing the news, she felt a wave of relief. But she wasnโt thrilled. โI told you to off him, but you dragged your feet!โ
William looked exasperated. โMs. Russell, the guy was a big deal. I did what I could. At least heโs dead now. As long as Elizabeth keeps her mouth shut, Alexander will never figure out you were pretending to be her to save him!โ
Esme narrowed her eyes. โElizabeth canโt be left alive.โ
William asked, โMs. Russell, you planning to take care of her?โ
โWilliam, tell me, who keeps secrets best?โ Esme grinned at William, a dangerous glint in her eyes.
โEasy, a dead person hanging on the wall!โ William smirked.
Esme snorted, โWell, letโs get rid of it then.โ
Sheโd been plotting against Elizabeth for ages.
โGot it!โ William was pumped.
โBut donโt rush,โ Esme stopped him. โThe cruise partyโs coming up. I found out the Percy Family got an invite, and Elizabethโs going. William, this is our shot!โ Esmeโs eyes gleamed with menace.
The thought of Elizabeth disappearing soon made her wish the day would come faster.
โMs. Russell, leave it to me. Just watch,โ William grinned, looking like a total suck-up.
Later that night. At Tudor Group.
โMr. Newman was a top-notch partner, and you still blew it. What else can you mess up? Alexander, weโre seriously doubting your skills!โ
In the video call, a bunch of stern shareholders were grilling Alexander.
Alexander furrowed his brow, leaning back in his chair. His gaze was icy as he stared at the screen.
Chapter 393
Alexander said firmly, โTudor Group ainโt ever working with Louis. No one in Lisbon will.โ He didnโt think anyone would dare cross the Tudor Family and team up with someone they blacklisted!
โAlexander, let me be clear, Louis is already making moves. Heโs got shipments heading into Coral Bay!โ
Alexanderโs expression stayed cool. โSo what?โ
โSo, someone in Lisbon is secretly working with Louis behind your back!โ
Alexander looked at Nolan. Nolan nodded, confirming it.
โWhy didnโt you say something earlier?โ Alexander snapped at Nolan, his emotions flaring. โWho is it?โ Heโd made it clear no one in Lisbon was to work with Louis! Why would someone take that risk?
Before Nolan could answer, someone in the video shouted, โItโs Kyle!โ Another voice chimed in, โAlexander, donโt tell me you didnโt know Kyleโs back in town.โ
Alexanderโs face turned cold. Kyle just got back, and heโs already teaming up with Louis and shipping goods to Coral Bay? Alexander clenched his right fist and slammed it on the table, thinking, โIs Kyle trying to mess with me?โ
Alexander ended the video call. Nolan waited quietly for orders. Daring to challenge Alexanderโs authority, Kyle was seriously overestimating himself.
Alexander turned to Nolan, angrily pointing, โSeize his goods at Coral Bay. I wanna see who dares to release them without my say-so!โ
