"Yes, don't worry, I will give him a hint," Betty glanced at Karen's serious expression.
"That's right. Alexandrina is just a flirtatious woman. She must have wanted to play with Chuck. She'll ditch him after that."
Karen felt a little relieved. In fact, she was more inclined to believe that Alexandrina couldn't really have taken a fancy to Chuck. After all, they didn't have much contact.
Love at first sight?
Bah, this was impossible!
Alexandrina had met countless men, and Chuck was still young...
"Go check up on Willa. I want to know whether Willa's plane crash really was an accident!" Karen solemnly went over to Willa's side.
Betty looked at Chuck, who had fallen asleep. She was wondering what Alexandrina was going to do with Chuck. After all, she even gave him such a rare bomb.
Was she really into Chuck, or was she just teasing him?
Meanwhile, Karen had found Willa and was trying to see if she was conscious. She shook her shoulders gently and called out, "Willa, Willa..."
Upon hearing someone calling her, Willa opened her eyes and tried to sit up. Immediately after that, she asked worriedly, "How is Chucky doing?!"
"He's asleep. Don't worry," Karen replied.
Willa breathed a sigh of relief.
"Willa, what happened to your plane?" Karen questioned.
Betty stared at her too, waiting for an answer.
They were sure that things probably weren't that easy.
Willa fell silent. She had remembered everything, including the whole journey when she was ready to leave the United States. Adriana, from the Whitlock family, had suddenly appeared on the plane along with her bodyguards.
She wanted to tell Karen and Betty, but stopped herself from doing so.
Willa realized that they must have offended the Yeager family, which was also a hidden family. If they offended the Whitlock family as well, the consequences would be terrible!
Therefore, Willa chose to remain silent and forget about it. She came up with an excuse, "I met with an accident."
Karen was stunned to hear her answer and asked, "Are you serious?"
"Yes, there was an accident," Willa nodded.
Dead silence ensued.
"It's fine then," Karen helped Willa lie down and said, "Rest well." "Ok," Willa closed her eyes.
With that, Karen and Betty walked out.
Betty whispered the moment they left Willa's sight, "Was there really an accident?"
Karen sighed and shook her head, frowning, "No, something must have happened. It's just that Willa is worried about something, so she ended up not telling us. It seems that it's really Adriana
Whitlock who did it!"
When Karen had previously gone to find Adriana, she already had her suspicions.
Now, looking at Willa's reaction, she was 100% sure that it was Adriana's doing.
Betty was shocked, "If everything is because of Adriana, then we..."
Karen's gaze was cold as she declared, "I have never thought of doing something to the hidden families. I always thought we would be two separate entities in two separate worlds. With that, we would be able to live in peace. However, now that they've voluntarily started a conflict with us, I can't just sit here idly..."
Murderous killing intent brewed in Karen's words.
She was prepared to fight them to the death!
"Trash! They're just a pile of trash!" Back at the Yeager family, several members berated discontentedly.
Brooke couldn't even utter a single word despite being back. He was busy coughing up blood.
Furthermore, Loomis was still in a coma!!
For the first time, the Yeager family members felt that they not only paid for useless bodyguards, but also a group of quack doctors!
Loomis wasn't able to regain consciousness, and Brooke was also suffering from asthma!
What was the use of these doctors if they couldn't even cure the two of them?
"The Old Master's asthma suddenly relapsed. We've tried special medicines, but nothing works. Meanwhile, the young master here has suffered a heavy impact on his head when he was being thrown out. He'll probably be bedridden for at least a few days," The doctor trembled while falling to his knees.
He was shocked. He had checked on Brooke previously and was sure that the symptoms from his asthma were under control. Hence, why did he suddenly fall into a relapse?
Brooke seemed to be coughing his whole lungs out. That was terrifying!
"Why aren't you thinking of a solution then?" Thomson was infuriated.
"Yes, immediately!" Several doctors immediately got busy.
Almost all of the Yeager family members were here.
"Grandpa has already returned, so shouldn't we deal with Karen Lee now? They should die for what they've done to us!" A young man hissed.
Today's humiliation was still fresh on their minds!
Fortunately, there were no outsiders present. If the world knew that the Yeager family had been toyed around so badly, they would become the laughingstock at an international level!
"Yes, I think that we should have that b*tch Karen Lee disappear immediately! Let her know what she will face if she offends us!" A middle- aged man stated lividly.
Thomson fell silent for a few seconds before he said, "With Karen Lee's strength, we can crush her in three days. There's no hurry. The most important thing now is to cure our father's illness. He'll be able to tell us what to do. After all, our father hates Karen to the core!"
"That's true. Let grandpa give us the order. He'll be happy to do so," Someone chimed in.
"Good idea. When grandpa is cured, he will personally deal with that B*tch. It will definitely make grandpa happy! He'll definitely feel better and stronger after wiping that b*tch off the face of the earth!" A young man suggested.
Most of the members were in agreement to allow Brooke to have the final say. This was the best choice they had at hand.
After all, Brooke must want to get revenge for the insult that he had suffered from today.
"Dad, don't worry. We will make every effort to have the doctor treat you. As for that b*tch, well allow you to give us the orders personally!" Thomson said beside his father's side.
Brooke was coughing so much that he was on the verge of fainting. He could barely catch his breath.
His eyes were wide open as his gaze was constantly focused outside. He was looking in the direction where Karen's plane had left...
"So you're saying that the Yeager family was actually humiliated today?"
In a dark room, an old voice could be heard.
"Yes. I heard that your grandson Chuck managed to capture Brooke Yeager as..." Someone said in the dark.
"My grandson? I don't have a grandson like him," A white-haired old man shook his head indifferently.
"Yes!"
"Chadrick, he... When I first allowed him to go out, I never expected him to have a child with Karen. Chuck is just excessive baggage, so I will never acknowledge his existence! I had only intended for Chadrick to control Karen because she has a lot of potentials. The past twenty years have proven it as well. She is indeed a genius when it comes to business, and she is also talented in combat! When it comes to people like these, I have to take them in as my own..." The white- haired man said expressionlessly.
"Yes..." The man lowered his head.
"However, things have happened a bit earlier than what I have expected. Karen is not a match for the Yeager family. At least, not yet!" Albert Cannon's eyes were shining in the dark.
"Then... Things are getting out of hand now. Should we help Karen Lee?"
"Help? She is just one of my chess pieces. Why should I help her? To be exact, is she even worth my help?" A sinister smile flashed across Albert's face.
"But if we don't help her, she will definitely be killed by the Yeager family!"
"It's her own business. This woman is very resilient. A chess piece like her won't be taken so easily. However, if she's really killed, that's just her fate. It will only go to prove that she isn't worth my time and investment!"
"That's true."
"In fact, it's best to let Karen grow for a few more years before she goes against the Yeager family. It's too early now, but it's still not a big deal. If Karen resists well, she should be able to scratch the surface of the Yeager family. If that happens, make the preparations. We've already been hiding for so long, so it's time for us to make our move..." Albert was actually a little excited.
"Yes! Should we inform Young Master Chadrick about this?"
"There's no need. I will have a good talk with Chadrick. No matter how outstanding a woman is, she's just a woman at the end of the day. She's no better than a toy that can be discarded any time. I thought that my son here would know, but it seems that's not the case. However, Chadrick is smart. I'll tell him and he'll understand! As for Chuck, since he shouldn't have been born, he shouldn't have come out into the light. I'll talk to Chadrick about this. You can leave now,” Albert ordered expressionlessly.
"Yes!” With that, his subordinate excused himself.
Albert's eyes lit up. He took out his mobile phone and called Chadrick, saying "Chadrick, what's up with what I asked you to do? ... Don't blabber. Karen is no more than a chess piece in my hands, understand? How can you fall in love with someone lowly like her? Also, since she's quite a valuable piece on the board, you should make good use of her... I'm telling you to do this now. Listen carefully..."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
