Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 2252 Inheriting the Will!

“Mr. Tanner! Mr. Tanner…” Aora sobbed uncontrollably

He had been devastated by Amethyst’s death, furious over the loss of Ash and Azure, but now, even Teddy was gone, and it felt as if his very faith had crumbled. A hollow emptiness filled his chest, leaving him questioning why he was still alive–until the thought of revenge ignited within him, consuming his heart with blazing fury.

Emmanuel Lowe! I will kill you! I will make sure you die a brutal death!

Hatred turned Aora’s eyes blood–red. He let out a furious roar, raising his arm, and the sheer force of his rage exploded outward, causing the air around him to detonate violently.

Meanwhile, Gautier returned to Zovince the following morning.

Ignoring his injuries, he made himself look as disheveled as possible. Using his status as Teddy’s personal assistant and heir, he once again summoned the representatives who remained in Zovince.

“Mr. Verkade, what happened to you?”

“Your leg… Why are you limping?”

“Yeah, you were fine yesterday!”

Everyone was shocked, and an ominous feeling settled in their hearts seeing him in this state.

Sure enough, Gautier suddenly broke into uncontrollable sobs, choking on his words. “Everyone… it’s all my fault… I was too weak… Last night, I failed to save my master…”

“What?!”

“What happened to Mr. Tanner?”

“That b*stard–he wouldn’t actually dare, would he?”

A wave of panic spread through the crowd.

It was clear that none of them wanted Teddy to be dead Their businesses depended too heavily on him- if he was gone, many of them would collapse alongside him.

Gritting his teeth, Gautier finally nodded and forced out the words, “Master… He was killed by Emmanuel! I did everything I could to save him, but that b*stard was too strong…”

“Impossible!” A woman’s voice rang out sharply.

It was Nadia Raferty, the Zovince representative who had voted in Teddy’s favor.
