Female Novel
Chapter 752: Annihilation
Jonathan and Tony were rendered speechless by the seemingly harsh answer.
Similarly, Jasmine brought herself to a halt when she heard Kane's answer.
Does he have a death wish or something? No one has ever talked to Dad in such an arrogant manner!Jonathan resisted the urge to reprimand Kane.
He surveyed the surroundings and found out Amora wasn't around.
Thus, he asked, "Where's the doctor assigned to take care of you? Why is she nowhere to be seentoday?"
Things got increasingly worse as soon as he brought up the presence of Amora.
Kane's face scrunched up in irritation within split seconds.
Tony glared at the housemaid, instructing him to answer Jonathan's query on Kane's behalf.
As much as the housemaid was afraid of offending Kane, she stammered, "D-Dr.West isn't herebecause Mr.Kane has warned her to stay away from the mansion in the future."
The ones at the dining table, including Jonathan, gaped at the truth and looked in Kane's direction.
"What's going on? Why have you warned her to stay away from you again? Isn't she Grayson'sapprentice? Have you terminated her because of her inferior skills or something?"
Jonathan asked rhetorically when he recalled his conversation with Grayson.
Jonathan had made himself clear he would get someone else over to take care of him if Amora couldn'tlive up to expectation.
On the other hand, Jasmine was thrilled when she heard the duo's conversation.
Great! I have been waiting for the opportunity to send Kira to take care of him, but I can't think ofanything to justify it! He has just done me a huge favor! If that's the case, I'll introduce Kira to take careof him soon!
"I'm pretty sure they have been hearing things again" Kane assured the rest that wasn't the case andthat wouldn't be necessary.
Jasmine could barely catch her breath and almost passed out when she heard Kane dismissingJonathan's suggestion.
On the contrary, Jonathan let out a sigh of relief when he found out everything was fine.
He continued savoring the dishes in front of him.
Out of the blue, he announced Kane's upcoming assignment, "If that's the case, whenever she returns,tell her to hurry up and do something about your condition as soon as possible.Stephen has quite a lotof things on his plate.Once you're feeling well, I want you to join him and help him out."
Kane glanced at Jonathan as if he couldn't be bothered at all.novelbin
Meanwhile, Jasmine's eyes widened in disbelief when she heard Jonathan's announcement.
Why is he sending Kane to help Stephen? Currently, we're the only ones in charge of the corporate andinvestment subsidiaries of the Jadesons! Is he trying to do Kane a favor and allow him to assertinfluence over the family? The startled Jasmine clenched her fists with all her might to suppress herfrustration.
She put on a calm front and asked, "Dad, why are you sending him to help Stephen? I-'m afraid thatisn't very wise of you."
"What do you mean it isn't very wise of me?"
"I-I mean, he's Shin's son! I-Isn't he supposed to join the ranks just like his late father?" Jasminestammered as a result of Jonathan's harsh question.
"Since when was that a tradition of the family? Aren't you aware of the things he has been up two overthe past decade? Have you seen anyone being a match of the almighty Ronin Corporation?" Jonathanremarked sarcastically, indicating he was against the idea of her not acknowledging Kane's talent as acorporate player.
Jasmine couldn't think of anything else to change Jonathan's mind when she recalled Kane'sexceptional achievement in the corporate world.
It was merely a piece of cake for him to manage a multinational company with influences all over theworld.
In short, it wouldn't be much of a challenge for Kane to work wonders with the subsidiaries of theJadesons.
Jasmine was adversely impacted by the news.
She lost the color on her face instantly.
In the end, she strode out of the mansion with Kira next to her.
Kira asked, "What's wrong, Aunt Jasmine? Isn't it great to have someone share the burden of UncleStephen?"
"It's not just that!" Jasmine got worked up and remarked, "He's Shin's son! Shin has always beenDad's favorite child! I'm afraid it's only a matter of time until he takes over Stephen's position as the
person in charge of the company since he's such a capable man!"
Kira couldn't think of anything else to console her upset aunt since she would be in huge trouble if heruncle was no longer in power.
"W-What are we supposed to do then?"
Out of nowhere, Jasmine announced with a vicious smirk, "What else are we supposed to do apartfrom taking him out? I'm going to ensure he's handicapped for real"
Kira was horrified by the things Jasmine had brought up.She stuttered, "W-What exactly do you have inmind?"
Gritting her teeth, Jasmine announced, "We'll poison him! Since Dad has grown fond of you, just dropby Oceanic Estate and make him a meal every once in a blue moon whenever he's around! If that’s thecase, you can easily poison Kane!"
Kira's face turned pale when she found out that she was one of her aunt's most important pawns.
Is she seriously doing this to her nephew? Unwilling to condone her aunt's decision, Kira stuttered, "Y-You-"
"The first thing we need to do is to take out the doctor taking care of her! If she's around to keep himsafe, there's no way you can approach him! I want you to get your hands on the doctor's whereaboutswithin the next two days."
On top of her initial vicious plan, Jasmine had brought up another malicious plan to take out aninnocent figure.
Kira was utterly horrified by her aunt.
She felt as if Jasmine was no longer the aunt she was familiar with.
