Betrayed, Then Back For Blood

Chapter 314

Everyone in the small conference room heard Briar’s words loud and clear.

In an instant, every gaze turned toward Edgar, carrying an odd mix of shock and ridicule.

It was no exaggeration to say that Briar’s relationship with Edgar–and with the Jennings family as a whole- was hostile and beyond reconciliation.

Yet, for reasons no one could fathom, Edgar always went out of his way to provoke Briar, as if he would not rest until she was pushed past the breaking point.

They collectively thought, ‘Was he not simply courting disaster?‘

Briar was no longer just the head of the Jennings Group. She was a miracle doctor, a master hacker, and an instructor at the DDC Vanguard Mercenary Special Operations Base.

One might wonder what kind of place that base was.

It was a camp of merciless killers, hardened soldiers who could take a life without hesitation.

Briar specialized in training those very mercenaries. At Edgar’s age, how many of her blows could he possibly withstand?

Thanks to Nathan’s deliberate efforts as acting president, every employee of the Jennings Group now revered Briar after her hidden identities were revealed one by one.

Even the few shareholders who had once resented her forceful takeover had since fallen silent, unwilling to stir up trouble.

The thought was laughable–under a CEO with such overwhelming power, who would dare to oppose her unless they had a death wish?

Surely, it was far wiser to fall in line behind Miss Jennings and wait peacefully for their year–end dividends.

Thus, in the months Nathan held the reins as acting CEO, he had already taught every shareholder to know their place.

Every shareholder but Edgar, who seemed determined to tempt fate.

With so many eyes on him, Edgar felt his face flush with shame. That rebellious daughter–she was the source of all his ruin. Because of her, he had lost both his wealth and reputation.

If Len had not forbidden it, Edgar would have secretly disposed of her long ago.

Before Len’s incident, Edgar had brimmed with confidence. After all, if he could kill Rosalia, then surely Briar could be dealt with as well.
