Female Novel
Chapter 1904
Aware that this was an added challenge by Preston, Landon abandoned the fight and sprinted for the elevator a dozen feetaway.
He frantically hammered the elevator button. A few seconds later, the door creaked open slowly.To his dismay, inside the elevator stood five attackers, each wielding sharp blades.
Preston was relaxing in a pool lounger, smoking his favorite cigar brand. He played his favorite clubbing music from his phone,which was already out of style.
Every few minutes, he would look at his watch. Then he would smack his lips with satisfaction and continue to rest his eyes.After 20 minutes, the elevator facing the entrance to the pool slid open with a ding.Preston's eyelids fluttered open a fraction before a jolt of awareness sent them springing wide.
He watched as Landon stepped over the bodies beneath him with heavy but determined footsteps. He slowly made his way tothe pool, as if he were the God of War, returning triumphantly after a bloody battle.
Landon's icy, handsome features were smeared with blood. His white button-up shirt was stained a vivid red.
“Huh... You're quite something, you little brat," Preston muttered, taking a heavy puff of his cigar, a growing sense of respect forLandon evident in his eyes.
He hadn't expected Landon to emerge from the elevator alive.
In his younger days, Cornelius had been a formidable figure, striking terror into the hearts of many. And now, Landon displayedtraces of that same awe-inspiring presence.
Despite appearing pale and feeling cold, Landon's glare at Preston was intense as the former entered the pool area. Multiplecuts adorned his body, and the wound on his arm was still bleeding.
He came close to dying in the elevator. Only because of his love for Lauren and concern for Angelina was he able to stand up tothe deadly blades.
“My dearest nephew, you've done well." Preston gave him a thumbs up.“Lauren and Angelina, where are they?" Landon breathed heavily as the sweat dripping down his face washed away the blood.
“Now that you're here, what's the rush? Let's have a heart-to-heart as uncle and nephew," Preston said, turning off his music witha mysterious smile. "Especially since we'll never have this chance again."
"Did you kill my father and grandfather?"
“Of course," Preston replied, his smile unchanged."~Why—"
"Because they stood in the way of what | wanted."
“What you wanted? Preston, you're shameless and delusional." Landon's words were sharp, his gaze piercing. "Harper Groupwas never yours. My grandfather worked hard to build it, and Harper Group earned the prestigious title of being one of the BigFour thanks to my father's tireless efforts. Our achievements today have nothing to do with you!"

Preston's smile faded, replaced by a darker gaze.“If you want my life, | am right here. Let Lauren and Angelina go, and I'll play with you for a while." Landon's gaze was cold."You really are my brother's son. You've got balls!"
Preston then hollered, "Frank, let the two ladies come out!"
