Female Novel
Chapter 96 Give You One Month
Same time.
At Alberesque, the Logan family home.
The patriarch Gabriel Logan was staring at his third son's Felix's body with mixed emotions.
Felix was his mistress's offspring, and was also his third son. In the Logan family, Felix was always
viewed as a bastard son, and Gabriel had never paid much attention to him.
In order to prove himself, Felix had set off to Channing with the dream to achieve something for
himself.
However, he had spent barely a few days in Channing before he met the end of his life.
Even though he had never paid much attention to this son, Gabriel was still furious that his son was
murdered just like that.
His eyes fell on Samuel Smith who brought the body home and said coldly, "Tell me, what happened?"
Samuel bowed his head and said, "Mr. Felix fell for a woman named Penny Smith. He had an
altercation with her husband Nathan Cross who then beat Mr. Felix to death."
Gabriel then pointed at one of Felix's bodyguards, "You! You answer the question!"
The bodyguard then answered in a trembling voice, "Sir, Penny Smith is from the Smith family and Mr.
Felix really liked her. However, the Smiths also played their part in encouraging Mr. Felix to pursue
Penny. If not for their encouragement, Mr. Felix may not meet such an ending."
Samuel was shocked and angry at the bodyguard's revelation. "You..."
Gabriel then said coldly, "How dare you use my son! Come and kill him now, and have him accompany
my son six feet under!"
The second he spoke, a few ferocious men began charging towards Samuel as they prepared to kill
him on the spot.
Samuel was so terrified that he screamed, "Mr. Logan, wait!"
Gabriel raised his hands to indicate to his men to stop. He then said coldly, "I would like to hear your
last words."
With cold beads of perspiration on his head, Samuel said anxiously, "Mr. Logan, Mr. Felix's altercation
with Nathan Cross really has nothing to do with our family. He was bent on getting Penny because he
was eyeing her career. He wanted to use her as his springboard to further his own career, just to prove
himself to you."
Gabriel narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Despite that, you can't deny the fact that you Smiths have
used my son with evil intentions. This explanation can't save you at all."
Samuel grew more perturbed and quickly said, "Mr. Logan, please forgive us. We are definitely wrong
this time. Mr. Logan, even if you take my life, it won't help matters at all. We are willing to do anything to
make amends.”
This finally piqued Gabriel's interest. "How do you propose you make amends?"
Samuel immediately said, "We will help you avenge your son's death by snatching Penny Smith's
company project and present it to you!"
Gabriel knew that his son's death was brought about by his intention to get Penny's company project.
He was interested in this project and asked, "Is this project very profitable?"
Samuel immediately nodded. "Yes, this is a landmark project in Channing, the Asiatic Shopping Mall. Ifnovelbin
the project is completed according to the laws, the minimum profit is ten billion. If the construction
process and materials are rigged slightly, the profit could be even greater than that."
Gabriel's eyes lit up instantly.
Ten billion? That is definitely a huge project.\-\e was interested now.
His tone softened as he asked, "Tell me
about your plan."
Gabriel's tone told Samuel that his interest was piqued, and his chance for survival was right here.
He wiped away the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled, "The Smiths still have some influence in
Channing. Nathan Cross is just a brute that fights well, that's it. The moment I return, I'll have him
wiped out to avenge Mr. Felix's death. The moment he is gone, we will be able to snatch the project
from Penny Smith's hands. By then, we will present all the profits from this project to you as a sincere
token of our apology."
Gabriel immediately shot a sharp look at Samuel and he said, "All right. I'll give you one month. If you
cannot kill Nathan Cross and snatch the project within a month, then don't blame me for what is going
to happen next."
Samuel immediately said, "Yes, don't worry Mr. Logan. I will definitely settle this matter!"
Gabriel narrowed his eyes. "I'll wait and see. Just do what you need to do."
