Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Chapter 760: Can We Have A Minute Alone?



Seeing him hesitate, Allen was instantly angry, “I see, Dad, you think I’m not as good as your good son Alexander. Christopher, in every respect, so everything that I do will be wrong, and by every means, will fail and get you in trouble, right? In that case, go to Alexander Christopher! He’s lucky anyway. He makes money and makes you proud of whatever he does!”

Gary was lost in thought.

Alexander had been showing extraordinary talents over the years, and Allen had been mad with envy. Allen refused to admit he was inferior to Alexander, so he got money from Gary to start a business like Alexander. However, he ended up losing all the money, and Gary had to clean up his mess.

In order to cheer Allen up and prevent him from losing confidence in himself, Gary always comforted Allen that he was in bad luck and his ability wasn’t bad at all. It was because of luck that Alexander could make a hit today.

After a long period of consolation, both of them believed this statement was true and even believed it firmly.

Later, whenever they mentioned Alexander, Gary would agree to give Allen anything in order to protect his sensitive and fragile nerves.

What happened now was the same. Even though Gary didn’t feel it was right in the heart. He still hurried to comfort Allen, “Allen, what the hell are you talking about? You know what, you have been my only precious son.

“As for Alexander, when did I treat him like a son? You should know why I approach him. A man like him who made his fortune relying on his luck will sooner or later bankrupt such a big company!”

“Hence, we must take his company over lest he should waste it! We’re doing him a favor. Even if he can’t tell good from bad, we’ll have to keep helping him, won’t we? If it weren’t for that, do you think I would be willing to talk to him? Even if he were to die outside, he would have nothing to do with me!”

Allen brightened up at Gary’s words. A touch of greed flashed in his eyes. “Well, my plan….”

Gary managed to make him happy with difficulty, so he didn’t want to irritate him anymore. “Just do it if you want to. As long as you have a perfect plan and you can make sure things won’t go wrong, I believe you can succeed!”

“Dad, you know my plan. Didn’t you say it would be all right at that time?” Allen said and furrowed his eyebrows. “I’ve already bought off the waiter. It was very easy to drug Heather. As long as you can stall Alexander and prevent him from ruining my plan!”

“But…” Gary hesitated and said, “I’ve just fallen out with Alexander, and he won’t listen to me…”

“It’s none of my business. You’d better figure out a way for yourself,” Allen said impatiently, “Enough, I’m going to find the waiter.”

With that, Allen turned around and walked away.

Although Gary felt a little embarrassed to hear his son’s orders, he had no complaints.

Soon, Shane helped Grandpa Joseph walk downstairs. Everyone congratulated Grandpa Joseph, who then thanked all of them. Gary saw Alexander and Heather at a distance in the crowd. He didn’t want to talk to them anymore, but when he saw Allen keep winking at him, he had to bite the bullet to walk to them.

Gary brazenly approached Alexander, forced a smile, and greeted him. “Alex… Can we have a minute alone?”

“Haven’t we just made it clear?” Alexander looked at him with an indifferent manner, but there was a strange light flashing in his eyes. Heather gave Gary a glance, then looked away as if she hadn’t seen him.

“I have just said those words because I was too angry. Don’t take it to heart,” Gary sighed. “I just want our family to be reunited. It’s just that I’m getting old, and I’m an old fool sometimes, so sometimes I would say something rash. It’s your grandfather’s big day. Don’t you wish we could untie the knot in our hearts?”

There was a cold light in Alexander’s eyes.

If Gary had said these kinds of words to him more than ten years ago, he might have been moved and had high hopes for him. It was a pity that he wasn’t a gullible child now.

He knew exactly what Gary was up to, but today Gary was bound to be disappointed. Or it could be said that the moment Gary made up his mind, he and Allen were going to pay the price tonight!

“You’re right,” Alexander calmly said.

“Shall we talk over there?” Gary, who was delighted and wanted to take Alexander to a remote corner, asked.

Only if he had lured Alexander away could Allen have the chance to trick Heather into leaving here.

Heather looked at Alexander.

He rubbed her hair gently. “I’ll be right back, honey. Wait for me here.”

Heather nodded. “Okay.”

Gary took Alexander to a remote corner.

When Allen saw them from a distance, he couldn’t help but be delighted.

Then he picked up two glasses of red wine and got close to Heather.

“Miss Denmark,” he said with a sincere face. “I’m really sorry about what happened last time. I didn’t mean to give you fake earrings as a present.”

She gave him an indifferent look. She was really beaten down by his and his father’s impudence.

Allen was actually able to remain calm and strike up a conversation, even though he had just lost his face in public. “To show my apologies, I’d like to buy you a drink,” Allen said in an earnest tone.

He handed a glass to her and continued, “I’ve drunk it off. Feel free to drink it.”

“Have I said I would accept your apology?” she asked coldly, showing no intention of taking the glass.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

He instantly froze. He chuckled and whispered, “Miss Denmark, there are so many people watching. Even if you don’t give me a face, you should at least give my elder brother a face, shouldn’t you?

“If others know that he and I are at odds with each other as brothers and he has a bad relationship with the other family members like this. It won’t be good for him either, will it?”

She narrowed her eyes. “Are you threatening me?”

“No, no, no, I don’t dare,” he answered, shaking his head quickly. “I’m just telling the truth. I also hope I can have a normal brotherhood with my brother.”

It seemed that Heather had wavered, but when her eyes fell on the glass, she couldn’t help frowning.

“Miss Denmark, are you suspecting that I’ve drugged the wine?” he asked.

Then he yelled, “How was that possible?

You’re my sister-in-law. Waiter!”

He stopped a waiter who was passing by and said, “Go get Miss Denmark and me two glasses of wine!”

The waiter agreed, quickly fetched two glasses of wine, and handed them to him and Heather.

The waiter winked at Allen as he handed one of the glasses to him.
