Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie Hoven )
Chapter 580

Graham!”

Chapter 580 He’s Here

The assassins watched as the scene unfold and stopped their relentless pursuit. They swiftly retreated to report to their employers.

Soon, news of the incident reached a luxurious villa

The middle–aged man who received the message was a typical Faldorian with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was in disbelief. “Are you sure that it’s done?”

“Yes! Their car exploded after it tell into the river. Even if they survived the initial impact, they would be seriously injured” a man said.

The middle–aged man pressed on “What about the woman? The one named Hoven. Did she die as well?”

The person answering was his son, the mastermind behind the ambush. “She was in the same car as Cronus, so she must be dead tool”

The middle–aged man finally exhaled. He felt ecstatic and said, “Excellent! Well done! We have finally eliminated those two formidable threats!”

His son agreed, “Indeed. If that woman had not interfered with the recent SAM acquisition, we wouldn’t have discovered that she was here in Mercianna with Cronus. If her true identity had been revealed, the Filo family inheritance would have fallen into the hands of an outsider!”

“pmpossible! I’m Mrs. Denning’s nephew. I’m a Filo, the rightful heir of the family. I’m far more qualified than that grandson of hers. The Filo family can only belong to us!” the middle–aged man declared.

“You’re absolutely right, Father!” The young man’s eyes gleamed with ambition. “With Cronus and that woman dead, the Filo family will be ours!”

Still, the middle–aged man felt a sense of unease and instructed, “Keep an eye on the Filo Residence and the Denning Residence. Inform me immediately of any developments!”

“Yes!” the son said.

The gunfight in the forest was naturally kept under wraps. Both the Denning Residence and Filo Residence enforced strict confidentiality

The public only knew that injured individuals were being rushed to a private hospital owned by the Filo family. However, the identities of the injured and the severity of their conditions remained undisclosed

For the next two days, Wesley wasn’t seen anywhere, and that Yennifer didn’t leave the hospital.

Everyone knew that Vennifer loved to indulge herself. She wouldn’t voluntarfly stay the night at a place like the hospital if things weren’t serious.

Rumors began to circulate within the Filo family. Some speculated that Wesley had died and Yennifer was hiding the truth to prevent a power struggle over the inheritance.

The family members were unable to endure the uncertainty and finally gathered on Sunday afternoon demanding for Vennifer to reveal Wesley’s condition. Known for her rebellious spirit, Yennifer resorted, “Anyone who spreads rumors about the patriarch of the family dying is guilty of conspiring against him.”

That was able to shut everyone up.

According to the Filo family rules, anyone who disrespected or undermined the patriarch of the family could be banished.

Due to the uncertainty around Wesley’s condition, no one dared to challenge her. They could only wait it out.

Meanwhile, a private jet from Capebatt City touched down at Mercianna’s airport William, dressed in a black suit, walked down the stairs of the Gulfstream G650.

As expected of the world’s top business jet, it was both functional and stylish. And as expected of the CEO of the Cloudex Corporation, William exuded an air of dignified aloofness.

He was in Mercianna for the acquisition of SAM the following day.

A manager from the International Department of Cloudex received William at the airport.

The manager had extensive connections. He leaned in and muttered to William, “Mr. Middleton, something happened to the Filo family.

William’s dark eyes narrowed as he looked at the manager. The manager lowered his voice further. “Wesley might have been killed in an assassination attempt orchestrated by the

William paused in his steps for a second before resuming his walk. His voice was deep and measured as he said, “When did this happen?”

“On Saturday. After the gunfight, there was a car accident. The passengers were rushed to the hospital, but there has been no news since. Mr. Middleton, should we take the opportunity to add fuel to the fire?” the manager said.

The “fuel” the manager referred to was the potential plummet of the Filo Group’s stock p price if the public learned of the Filo family heir’s assassination attempt.

William didn’t say anything more and just twirled his ring. He walked from the airport to his car, his expression inscrutable all the way.

He didn’t care if Wesley died, but..

“Car accident? Where was Wesley headed when the incident happened?” william asked out of the blue.

The manager responded, “Wesley’s men sure can keep a secret, but it appears that he was on the way to the Filo Residence to meet Mrs. Denning. The accident was severe. Him, his secretary, and his driver are missing and presumed dead”

“Secretary?” William pressed, “jodie? Marcel?”

Neither. Jodie and Marcel are currently occupied, so it must have been another secretary,” the manager said

William lowered his eyes.

If Wesley just intended to meet

meet his

mother, why bring multiple secretaries? If it wasn’t a secretary, then…

A chilling thought crossed his mind, and his expression burned cold.

“Tu the hospital,” Willaim commanded.
