The Billionaire Who Saved Me

Another fact that shocked Farrah. Her eyes widened. But she quickly shook her head.

“M-maybe he wanted to know Garrett’s condition after the accident. Wanted to know right away if Garrett was dead or not.”

Farrah was already shaken enough by the fact that Ariel, her only biological son, was tapping her. Let it be no more than that. Sad, but Farrah hoped that Ariel’s actions would stop there.

Teddy could understand. But there was nothing he could do. Because Farrah’s hope clearly clashed with reality.

“I can assure you that Mr. Ariel’s planned accident would not harm Mr. Garrett, madam.”

Farrah closed her eyes. Her face suddenly hardened; her hand clenched tightly. A snarl echoed in her throat.

“Why?”

Farrah opened her eyes. They showed an indescribable anger. Asking Teddy, it was clear how Farrah’s face then turned red.

“Why did Ariel go to see Garrett? What did they talk about? And why did Ariel pretend to hurt Garrett?!”

Teddy seemed calm even though Farrah kept asking him in a high tone. He remained calm. Seemingly indifferent. Even when he gave the answer Farrah was not expecting.

“Sorry, madam. But I don’t know what they were talking about. Nor do I know why Mr. Ariel did it.”

Farrah rose from her seat. “What did you say? You don’t know?”

“The situation at the time really didn’t allow me to listen to their conversation. Mr. Garrett’s people came quickly and searched the hospital.”

Of course. Farrah should have guessed that. But that did not mean Farrah accepted it.

“But my intuition tells me that everything Mr. Ariel does is connected to Mrs. Elice.”

Farrah could not contain her anger. She was really angry.

“Argh!”

Farrah growled. With both hands clenched, she paced back and forth in unstoppable rage. She felt her chest burning and full. As if she wanted to release all the emotions she was feeling.

“That ungrateful child! I’ve worked so hard for all of this, but he just meets Garrett?”

Farrah snorted. The fact that Ariel did not mention his meeting with Garrett was a clear signal to Farrah. That Ariel was up to something.

“So, this is all about Elice?”

The name immediately popped into Farrah’s head. She hated to admit it, but Farrah had not forgotten how her son had once been in love with Elice.

“I believe so, madam.”

Farrah turned to Teddy. “How could that be?”

“We don’t know how long Mr. Ariel has been bugging your office, Madam. But if Mr. Ariel has been tapping for a long time, there’s only one answer.”

“What do you mean?”

Teddy lifted his face. He looked at Farrah.

“It seems that Mr. Ariel knows your plan to get rid of Mrs. Elice.”

Right after Teddy said that, Farrah felt like the ground was shaking beneath her feet. Teddy quickly stood up and reached out to support Farrah, who seemed a bit shaky. He helped her to sit back down.

“Ariel went to Garrett to protect Elice,” Farrah said quietly with bitterness in her voice. “Is that what you mean?”

Unable to do anything, Teddy nodded.

It was a very logical conclusion. Because the fact that Ariel was tapping her raised a big question in Farrah’s mind. Did it make sense if they had the same goal and Ariel was doing this? Of course, the answer was no.

At that moment, when the reality made Farrah want to explode in anger, Kurt’s voice suddenly sounded. Reluctantly, but for some reason, Kurt’s words from the other day seemed to hit her in the face. Making Farrah realize a hard truth she didn’t want to accept.

“No, Farrah. Ariel doesn’t want all this. Ariel only wants one thing. Elice.”

“Ariel only wants Elice. And what he says. What he wants to do, it’s all for Elice. How can you not see all that?”

It seemed that Farrah had to see the truth in her husband’s words. All Ariel wanted was Elice. Whatever Ariel did, it was all for Elice.

Farrah felt her chest tighten. The air seemed to refuse to enter her lungs. Narrow and suffocating.

“So, this is why Ariel has been seeing me lately?” Farrah wondered. She grimaced. “Not because he cares about me. Not because he’s really focused on the goal of getting rid of Garrett. Instead, because he wants to make sure Elice stays safe?”

It was truly a scenario Farrah had never imagined. She had tried hard to convince Ariel to join her in getting rid of Garrett and taking over Pacific Energy, but what happened was not what she had hoped for.

“That ungrateful child!”

Teddy wasn’t at all surprised to see Farrah’s anger. There was no need to ask, Farrah was clearly angry at that moment. Ironically, the person who made Farrah so angry was her own son.

“Just because of that cheap woman, Ariel is willing to do all this?! Stab me in the back? Stab his own mother?!”

The pain, disappointment, and anger could not be expressed in words. Of all the people in the world, Farrah never thought she would be betrayed by her own biological son. So, it’s safe to say that Farrah’s feelings were shattered at that moment.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Ariel, her only biological son, had heartlessly betrayed her. All because of his blind love for a woman who was truly unworthy in Farrah’s eyes. That was clearly something that could not be tolerated.

“Then …” Teddy’s voice was heard. Farrah looked at him sharply. “… what are we going to do, madam?”

Farrah did not answer that question right away. Instead, she looked at the clock on the wall. It was ten in the morning.

“We have to act now, Teddy. And I don’t care. Whether it’s Ariel or anyone else,” Farrah said, shaking her head. “I’m not going to let anyone ruin my plans.”

Clutching her hands tightly, Farrah was determined in her decision. She would not back down, even if Ariel stood in her way.

“We’re going to finish Elice today.”
