Chapter 327 Don’t Disappoint Me
“I know you. You had a relationship with Silvia, and then were tricked by her, right?” Gordon looked Ladarius up and down with disdain.
Gordon had made some preparations before the meeting. He knew something about Ladarius.
However, he did not know about the relationship between Ladarius and the Petersen family. Although Gordon knew that Ladarius was working in the Petersen Group, he did not know how Ladarius paid off his debts and made a comeback. Gordon did not care about it at all. He only wanted to know whether Ladarius could really help him.
“Mr. Austin, although you are abroad, it seems that you know a lot.” Ladarius chuckled softly. He was not annoyed by Gordon’s words. “That’s right. I got into such a situation because of Silvia, your niece. In fact, we almost could become relatives.”
Gordon narrowed his eyes. “If you can help me, it’s possible that we will become relatives,” he said.
What Gordon meant was that as long as Ladarius could help him, he could help Ladarius get Silvia in the future.
Ladarius could not help but smile. “No, you misunderstood me. That’s not what I meant. I do want to take revenge on Silvia. But this is not my condition and goal. Mr. Austin, I just want you to know that I can do my best to help you get what you want. You know, I have no background, no support, and no resources in the Petersen Group. So, it is difficult for me to accomplish great deeds. I hope I can get your support in the future.”
“You want to get the Petersen Group?” Gordon looked at Ladarius deeply. Although he knew that Ladarius had a plan, Gordon did not expect him to be so ambitious.
What a greedy man!
The Petersen Group was a big company anyway. As far as Gordon knew, Ladarius was just a manager of a department. Even if Ladarius worked hard, the Petersen family would never vest an outsider with authority. How naïve Ladarius
was!
However, this was not bad. Now that Ladarius wanted to get the Petersen Group, he was not a threat to Gordon. No one knew whether Ladarius would succeed or not in the future. But Gordon thought that it was good for him to use such a person.
Thinking about this, Gordon nodded and replied, “Alright, I promise you! In the future, I will definitely help you. Then, tell me what evidence you have to help me.”
They stood facing each other. Ladarius could see Gordon’s thoughts and hesitation. He could roughly guess what Gordon was thinking about. A smile touched the corners of his mouth.
After Gordon spoke, Ladarius turned around, took out a box from the car, and opened it in front of Gordon. “You must need it.”
Gordon looked inside expectantly. “Scented candle?”
He was a little disappointed. “This is it?”
“Mr. Austin, do you think this is the ordinary scented candle? This is evidence to convict Silvia and Zain.”
“If it was so simple, I would have asked someone to copy it.” Shaking his head, Gordon began to feel that his trip today was not worthwhile.
He had thought that he could get something unexpected. He did not expect that it was an idea he had thought of long ago. Imitations would be detected easily. There was also some scented candle made by Silvia at home, which had never been used. As long as they compared them, they would know that the imitation was poisonous and that it was take.
Then he would be at a disadvantage.
“I have thought you have some good ideas. But now I can understand why you were tricked by Silvia!”
With a cold snort, Gordon was about to leave. This was simply a waste of time!
“Mr. Austin, do you think this is an inferior product that can be replicated by anyone?” Standing behind Gordon, Ladarius spoke up, “Let me tell you, even Silvia can’t tell if it’s the scented candle she has made.”
Gordon stopped and looked back at Ladarius, his eyes filled with doubt.
Knowing that Gordon would not believe it so easily, Ladarius stepped forward and stood two steps away from Gordon. He handed over the box in his hand. “Silvia and I have been together for five years. I am very familiar with her techniques and habits. I found someone to make this imitation according to her habits, techniques, and formulas. I can guarantee that the most precise instrument can’t detect any flaws.”
Although he was still skeptical, Gordon began to believe Ladarius when he saw that Ladarius was so confident.
“You still have two days, right? You can find someone to test it. By the way, be careful when you test it. Because something was added to the scented candle!” Ladarius had a confident smile on his face as if everything was under his
control.
Gordon reached out to take it, sniffed it, and immediately moved it away.
“Don’t worry. This dose of poison won’t harm people. After all, I heard that the poison in Mare attacked slowly,” Ladarius added.
Gordon had specially smelled Silvia’s scented candle. From a direct perspective, the smell was exactly the same. However, this was evidence to convict Silvia and Zain. So, Gordon would definitely be cautious and test it.
“Mr. Austin, don’t forget to change the other scented candle into this one. I have offered enough scented candles for you. In addition to the scented candle, there is also…”
Ladarius took out a small thing from his pocket and handed it to Gordon. “Thumb drive?” Gordon took it and looked
at it.
“The scented candle can at most give Silvia a criminal charge of harboring ill feelings for revenge. It won’t affect Zain. But this… can definitely help you, Mr. Austin.” Ladarius had a meaningful smile and extended a hand toward Gordon. “You’ll know when you see it after going back. I hope we can enjoy our cooperation in the future.”
Gordon glanced at Ladarius’ hand and then looked up at his gloomy smile. He raised his eyebrows slightly and shook Ladarius’ hand. “I hope you won’t disappoint me!”
Ladarius only smiled without saying anything.
They separated their hands and turned to their cars. The cars started at almost the same time and sped in the opposite direction as if they had never been there.
Gordon could not wait to know what was on the thumb drive.
After leaving the Austin’s place, Silvia had thought that Simon would take her to Warin’s branch in LA.
But she did not expect that the car was driving to the remote suburbs.
“Is Warin’s branch in LA in such a desolate place?” Silvia looked out. Even in the development zone, there should be factories and could be the place where the branch was located. But here… it was so desolate. Was the branch really here?
“Who says I am going to take you to the branch?” Simon smiled and shook his head. “I’ll take you to an interesting
