Female Novel
Chapter 1085
Early the next morning, after finishing his breakfast, the first thing Jean did was deal with the Marks family.
Originally, he had planned to leave a lifeline for the Marks family. As long as they didn't bother him inKingsview, they were free to thrive overseas.
However, whether it was domestically or abroad, there was no longer a need for the existence of Marks Group.
Sitting in the study, he took a sip of black coffee and asked indifferently, “How much of Marks Group's assets areleft within the country?”
Ian replied, “There's not much left. Marks Group has been sold off at a low price long ago, and the shares are nolonger in the hands of the Marks family. Only two subsidiary companies remain, but they're of little use. Apartfrom that, there's nothing left.”
The Marks family was indeed a large and prosperous one. The fact that they could suffer a complete defeat insuch a short span of time was somewhat lamentable.
Yet, for Jean, he felt it was still not thorough enough.
“Those two subsidiaries should be dealt with directly. From this day forward, there must be no presence of theMarks family in Kingsview,” Jean ordered.
At the same time, he also issued an order for the overseas branches to severely suppress Marks Group.
In other words, even if the Marks family were abroad, they couldn't expect to run their business smoothly. Theywould only face difficulties at every step.
It wouldn't be long before Marks Group was thoroughly ruined.
The Marks family, at that moment, was unaware of the impending disaster.
Stetson and Dandy had been busy with their plans to travel abroad those past few days. With most of thepreparations done, they were ready to set off in the next couple of days.
Kyra didn't pay any attention to leaving at all. She spent all day cooped up in her room, clearly not in a goodstate.
The news of Frederic's car accident and subsequent hospitalization was secretly spread by her.
She also hired some internet ghostwriters to stir up trouble online.
Watching the latest news, she was both disappointed and annoyed that it didn't achieve the effect she wanted.
However, before leaving, tarnishing Jean's reputation could be considered a small act of revenge.
She was eager to get back at him.
Moreover, what was more important was that upon hearing that Neera, that despicable woman, had separatedfrom Jean, she felt even more delighted, unable to hold back her laughter.
As Dandy and Stetson passed the corridor, they were momentarily stunned by the nearly manic laughter echoingfrom within. novelbin
The two of them looked at each other, suddenly feeling a bit scared. What's with our daughter? She seems to be
acting out of sorts... Could it be that the incident involving Jean and Neera has triggered some sort of paranoia?
Both of them dared not to criticize any further, nor did they dare to mention Jean and Neera in front of her.
In Essley, as Adriana's birthday approached, the preparations for the engagement banquet gradually came to aclose.
For the remaining trivial matters, Neera didn't have to be bothered. It was enough to leave them to the team tohandle.
In the evening, after returning home, she took advantage of Adriana's inattention, pulled Chad aside, and quietlysaid to him, “We're almost done, Uncle Chad. Please find some time in the next couple of days to come and checkit out. See if it's to your liking and if there's anything that needs improvement.”
Chad chuckled, “Sure. I'll make time to go. But I'm thinking that since you're the one preparing it, there'sdefinitely no problem. I have complete trust in you.”
After that, he asked about the situation of Avery.
Neera said, “We will draw out the wug pest from his body tomorrow.”
Chad was somewhat surprised. “Is the progress this fast? Can his current physical condition handle it?”
“Unless something unexpected happens, there shouldn't be any issues. He's been recuperating well recently, andhis recovery is going smoothly. Clearing the wug poison from his body as soon as possible will also be beneficialfor his trip to Phison.”
“How confident are you?”
“At least eighty percent.”
Seeing Neera's confident and determined expression, Chad felt relieved. “This matter has truly troubled yougreatly. We are indebted to you for your help in treating him during this period. Without you, who knows whatterrible consequences might have occurred?”
Neera chuckled. “Uncle Chad, there's no need for such formality between us. It's not like we're strangers. Afterall, you're about to become my family. We're practically family already, so let's not be so formal with each other.”
Hearing those words made Chad's heart bloom with joy.
He dropped the formalities with her, kindly saying, “All right. I'll go with you tomorrow.”
The two of them chatted for a while, only ending their conversation when Adriana came looking for them.
