Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 612 - 319: Still Not Pregnant 2_2

"What kind of threat?"

"Howard Geoffrey has caught evidence of your uncle’s embezzlement within the consortium. Your aunt doesn’t want her husband to be exposed, and she’s also afraid that he might cause her to lose her inheritance rights. So she has no choice but to cooperate with Howard Geoffrey."

Chester Robinson turned and sat on the sofa. With a snap, he lit a match, tilted his head to light a cigarette, and took a drag before saying, "Howard Geoffrey’s intentions seem quite clear."

Keith Antony nodded, "Yes, right after you completed the surgery for Miss Quentin, he has already begun to declare war on you."

Chester Robinson said, "If I’m not mistaken, he intends to first strip me of my status within the Robinson family, leaving me without this powerful backing, and then slowly consume everything I own."

Keith Antony’s calm face immediately showed worry, "Boss, I was also going to tell you that today, by chance, I discovered that Nicolette Holmes, who is close to Miss Quentin, turned out to be someone Jason Wood had planted inside ’QCS’ to secretly protect Miss Quentin... We didn’t even know there was someone related to Howard Geoffrey within ’QCS.’ According to investigations, Nicolette Holmes has already worked at ’QCS’ for more than three years. This is enough to explain that Howard Geoffrey might have known about M and you since three years ago, because Howard Geoffrey could not possibly have known three years in advance that Miss Quentin would join ’QCS’ for work. So, the only possible explanation is―all your companies have already been infiltrated by Howard Geoffrey. Only through this possibility can Howard Geoffrey place people in all your companies to protect Miss Quentin."

"This isn’t hard to guess... He knew long ago that M could threaten Skyler Jones because of me."

Keith Antony said fearfully, "Boss, I suddenly find Howard Geoffrey terrifying... If Howard Geoffrey hadn’t delayed his revenge to lure you into operating on Miss Quentin, if you were slightly less vigilant, we might have been devoured by him already."

Chester Robinson took another puff of his cigarette, exhaled the smoke slowly, and then asked with a faint smile, "What do you think he will do next?"

Keith Antony said, "I think Howard Geoffrey must know that every company we have cooperates with people over in N City, so he sent people to infiltrate our companies to collect evidence and crush all your companies."

Chester Robinson looked at Keith Antony with deep contemplation, "Not bad, you’ve been with me for so many years, and you’re able to analyze some things."

Keith Antony said nervously, "Boss, so should we begin to counterattack?"

Chester Robinson extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand and said solemnly, "Counterattack is inevitable, but such a counterattack is only to show Howard Geoffrey."

Keith Antony shook his head, unclear of the meaning.

Chester Robinson smiled with a touch of confidence at the corner of his mouth, "Howard Geoffrey wants to play, so I’ll play with him... I want to see how a figure worshipped as a deity by the world gets pulled off his throne."

Keith Antony said, "Then how should we counterattack?"

Chester Robinson feigned confusion as he looked at Keith Antony, "Haven’t I already started?"

Keith Antony’s expression was bewildered.

Chester Robinson smirked, "You forgot, Alice Robinson has already gone to see Howard Geoffrey."

"I know Miss Robinson has gone to plead with Howard Geoffrey to help her secure the inheritance, but since Howard Geoffrey is against you, how could he indirectly help you fight for the inheritance?"

The smile at Chester Robinson’s mouth widened, "Then you don’t know that for sure. He will definitely ’help’ and also wants to play a game with me."

Jones’ Mansion.

In the study, Jason Wood stood in front of the desk, looking at his ever-calm boss, and asked in surprise, "So, boss, you will help Alice?"

Howard Geoffrey swirled the red wine in his hand, a faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth yet remaining silent.

Roger Leonard, sitting opposite Howard Geoffrey, put down his glass in shock and asked incredulously, "Dora, do you genuinely have pity for Alice?"

Nelson Lewis, also sitting opposite Howard Geoffrey, said, "Roger, it’s not for the reasons you think. It’s because Alice told Geoffrey that as long as Geoffrey could help her obtain the family’s wealth, she would persuade Chester Robinson to operate on Becca."

Roger Leonard slammed a fist on the desk, "Chester Robinson is truly despicable, using this matter to coerce Dora!"

Jason Wood stated, "It seems Chester Robinson’s plan is to use this matter to counterattack..."

"So what should we do now?" Roger Leonard said impatiently, "Originally, if we could make Chester Robinson lose the support from the Robinson consortium, Dora could follow the plan and hand the evidence gathered before to the police, and that would be the end for Chester Robinson... But if Chester Robinson gains the Robinson family inheritance, the family members, to avoid family disgrace and the fear of being implicated, would do everything to help Chester Robinson clear his name. With the Robinson family’s vast network, it’s not impossible for them to pull him out of this."

Nelson Lewis furrowed his brow in thought for a moment, "I think Geoffrey’s choice to help Alice is correct."

Roger Leonard complained, "Big brother, why do you think so too? Isn’t this letting Chester Robinson succeed in his counterattack?"

Nelson Lewis analyzed, "Chester Robinson knows very well how much Geoffrey values Becca, so he knows Geoffrey will ultimately help Alice..."

Roger Leonard responded, "But we all know Chester Robinson would never help Becca!"

Nelson Lewis responded, "We know this, but what if Becca were to find out?"

"Big brother, you mean Chester Robinson would use this to incite Becca against Geoffrey?"

Nelson Lewis nodded, "Imagine this, if Becca knew Geoffrey gave up the chance to cure her, only to beat Chester Robinson, how would she feel?"

Roger Leonard scoffed, "Chester Robinson really is a despicable villain!"

Jason Wood asked, "So, Mr. Lewis, does the boss have no other choice?"

Nelson Lewis gave a profound smile to Howard Geoffrey, "I believe Geoffrey will never allow himself to be cornered by Chester Robinson; he must have another plan."

At this moment, Howard Geoffrey, who had been silent, gave a meaningful smile, looking at Nelson Lewis, and said softly, "Big brother, you’re the one who truly understands me."

Roger Leonard quickly asked, "Then what is the other plan?"

Nelson Lewis said, "If I’m not mistaken, Geoffrey intends to turn the tables, putting on a great show for Chester Robinson. While Chester Robinson thinks he’s secure, Geoffrey has probably already executed his second plan."

Roger Leonard suddenly looked enlightened, "I see, Dora’s plan that Chester Robinson sees isn’t the real plan; the real plan is already in motion..."

Nelson Lewis nodded with a smile.

Jason Wood scratched his head in confusion, looking at Howard Geoffrey, "Boss, I only knew of this one plan; I didn’t know you had such a backup plan... May I boldly ask who’s carrying it out?"
