Chapter 350

Curtis sneered. “Jefferson gave up his right to become the head of the Terblanc family, making Arnaud the only remaining heir. It’ll be a piece of cake for Arnaud to get to know the prominent figures in Aploth. He’s planning to enter Aploth’s market. That’s why he dared to lay a finger on me. Moreover-”

“He knows how much Jefferson cares about Ms. Garland and that you and Jefferson share a mother. He wants to play with you two, so he did this,” Jeremy said, finishing his sentence for him.

Curtis rubbed the dark blue silk scarf between his fingers as grimness clouded his eyes. “He’ll have to get my permission to enter Aploth’s market.”

“I know little about running a business, so I’ll refrain from making any comments.” After a moment of contemplation, Jefferson said, “Do you think Jefferson knows about this? Arnaud’s such a ruthless character. Would he be silent about this?

Curtis hummed in rumination. “He probably doesn’t. If he did, he wouldn’t have gone to Frosa with Rayna. He would have gone back to Yartran to clarify things with his father.”

“Does Arnaud have some kind of plan by not telling him about it?”

“That’s enough. Stop talking about him,” Curtis snapped, his mood taking a dip.

That name was haunting him like a ghost recently. If not for his upbringing and self–restraint, he would have gone straight to Frosa by tracking down Rayna via the tracker in her ring and then shot Jefferson point blank.

Sensing the imminent eruption of the volcano named Curtis, Jeremy smartly stopped mentioning the name and asked, “Curtis, why did you call me then?

“I’ll send you the front desk number of the hotel she’s currently staying. Call her” After a pause, Curtis added in a resentful but resigned tone, Send her the location of the lab.”

Jeremy was silent for two seconds before saying, “I didn’t mishear you, did I? You’re… saving Jefferson?

“I just don’t want my soon–to–be wife to run off with another man,” Curtis snarled. “Making this call to you tonight is the most humiliating moment in my life.”

“It looks like Ms. Garland has changed much of you, Curtis, Jeremy remarked. “If this were in the past, you would have killed him without leaving any trace behind; you wouldn’t be someone anyone could reason with.”

At that, Curtis‘ tone deepened. “Jeremy, if you have too much time on your hand, why don’t you get some investors for your lab? I’ve been investing more than a billion per year in your lab, but I’ve yet to see any good results. I’m getting annoyed, and I don’t think I want to keep throwing money into the gutter. What do you think?
