Chapter 803 Found Something
After a while of silence, Eva changed the topic.
"Essie, can I ask you something?"
"What?" Essie took a sip of coffee.
"The next leader of the Xu family hasn't been decided yet. What do you think?" Eva asked cautiously.
An imperceptible sharp look swept over the dark eyes of Essie. She smiled and said in a joking tone,
"Young hostess, you start to care about your family matters so soon?"
"We have to face this matter sooner or later. The rich family is a small kingdom. With many children, yet
they are not born by different mother. There is bound to be a struggle." Eva sighed. She could see that
Vinton really wanted to be the leader. She wanted to be a good wife and didn't want to be a drag on
him.
Essie stirred the coffee in her cup. Although Eva was an actress and good at acting, her mind was
written on her face when she didn't act. She saw through it at a glance.
Baron had long appointed the crown prince of the Xu family, but he hadn't announced it because of her
suggestion. She didn't want to hurt her bestie and brother, but the reality was cruel.
"Your husband is my brother, and Holy is my brother. If I want to support you, I'm sorry for Holy. If I
want to support Holy, I'm sorry for brother. Besides, it doesn't matter whether my brother or Holy will be
in charge. So I have to remain neutral on this matter. I won't give Mr. Baron any advice or opinion. It's
all up to him," she expressed her stand.
This was what Eva wanted to hear. She came here to convey this to her.
She nodded her head like a chicken pecking rice, "That's the best. I don't want you to be caught in a
dilemma."
Essie shook her head and smiled, "Eva, with your evil mother-in-law around, it's impossible for me to © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
stay out of it. She will definitely get me involved in this family competition. If Mr. Baron gives the
position to my brother, she will definitely tell Holy about my dirty deeds, saying that it is all my credit
and my suggestion to Mr. Baron. If Mr. Baron gives the position to Holy, my situation will be even
worse. She will definitely say that this is my conspiracy. I'm pretending to please my brother and win
him over, in order to paralyze him and push Holy to the position of crown prince. It's all my fault that I
have influenced Mr. Baron's decision to pass the throne to Holy. "
Eva patted the table gently and said, "Essie, you're right. That's what she said to us. She's trying to
alienate you from us."
With a sneer, Essie said, "In fact, my brother's biggest drag is Elizabeth. He is the eldest grandson of
the Xu family. If he is not the son of Elizabeth, he will be the leader of the Xu family. "
"Why?" Eva was slightly stunned.
"Elizabeth succeeded in driving my mother away with her brother's son. On the surface, she won, but in
fact, she had never won Mr. Baron's heart. Mr. Baron only went back to the Xu family's villa once a
week. He lived in the villa outside the villa for the rest of the time, with a lot of lovers around him.
Elizabeth was so lonely that she had an affair with uncle Bles and had an illegitimate child. Although
they have hidden this bastard and we don't have evidence to testify against the two of them, it's strange
that Mr. Mr. Baron doesn't feel uncomfortable. After the crisis of the Xu family and the exposure of
Elizabeth's ambition, Mr. Baron saw her more clearly and always kept an eye on her. "
After taking a sip of coffee to moisten her throat, Essie continued, "The reason why Mr. Baron is
hesitant and doesn't dare to give his position to my brother is that he is afraid that he will be controlled
by Elizabeth. In the future, the Xu group will fall into the hands of Elizabeth and uncle Bles. They had
an illegitimate child. When the Xu family was in danger, she and uncle Bles conspired to be the
chairman, preparing to leave this position to their illegitimate child in the future. She never thought
about leaving it to my brother. "
"This old fox is so cunning." Eva clenched her fist angrily.
"What my brother needs to do now is to let Mr. Baron know that he has his own judgment and decision,
and will not be instigated and manipulated by Elizabeth," Essie said.
When she proposed to let Vinton be the second largest shareholder to assist Holy, Baron expressed
his concern clearly.
He wouldn't allow the second Bles to exist. If Vinton couldn't do that, he would probably only let Vinton
be an idle shareholder and couldn't even get the position of the second major shareholder.
She didn't want to see this result. She saw the efforts of Vinton. She didn't want him to be implicated by
Elizabeth.
Hearing her words, Eva nodded heavily. "Essie, there is one more thing I want to tell you..." She stirred
the coffee in her cup and her voice became very low.
On the eve of the New Year, the young talents of the upper class held a party to welcome the new year
and bid farewell to the old in Mount Kirin.
Since Vinton came back, Jim hadn't seen Eva. He had a bad temper recently, and his appetite was also
very bad.
When Eva and Vinton walked in arm in arm intimately, he was extremely depressed.
Essie and Zac asked them to sit together, and the waiter served them a cocktail.
"Jim, I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to lose weight. Is there really something unclean
following you?" Essie teased, picking up a cup of Summer Flowers and looking at Jim.
With a gloomy face, Jim glared at Eva and said, "You have a big mouth, heaven pepper!"
Eva stuck out her tongue at him and said, "I and Essie talk with each other about everything."
"I would rather believe its existence than deny everything." With a mysterious look on her face, Essie
lowered her voice and said, "Weren't you pestered by the ghost in red in the Rong family before? It can
be seen that you have the physique of being entangled by ghosts. You'd better be careful."
Jim wanted to spit out blood, "it's not me who saw the ghost."
"She is your girlfriend and has been following you all the time. I guess that her frequency of concussion
was similar to mine during that time, so I was unfortunate to see her." Eva curled her lips. Recently, she
had read a lot of books on the psychics.
Shaking the glass in his hand, Zac said, "Don't challenge Jim's bottom line." There was a hint of
goodwill in his tone.
"Anyway, no matter it's a ghost or a human, don't bother my wife." Vinton put his arm around Eva's
shoulder.
A shadow floated over Jim's handsome face. For some reason, the scene of their love was particularly
dazzling.
"I'm just kidding with Jim. Isn't he the king of gossip? Isn't he not curious about it at all?" said Essie with
a smile.
"Are you curious?" Jim's tone was as cold as a gust of cold wind.
"I have always been curious about psychic things." Essie shrugged, her thick long eyelashes flickering
stealthily.
"Honey, Curiosity Kills the cat." Zac pinched the tip of her chin. He really hoped that she would mind
her own business and not cause any trouble, but unfortunately, she had never been obedient.
"I'm not afraid of anything with you around." With a slight smile, Essie looked at him with trust and
belief, as if she had firmly believed that he was her strongest backing and support.
Zac's heart trembled like he got electric shock, with tenderness. He really hoped that she could
maintain this tenderness all the time. He didn't want to see her change her face as soon as she went
home and closed the door. A basin of cold water fell from his head, pouring his hot passion to the
bottom of his heart.
Jim shook his head and said in a half-joking and half sneering tone, "Are you four racing to show off
your love? Can you keep a low profile? Take care of the feelings of the single!"
"Scum Jim, you may not be single. Maybe she is with you now," Eva reminded him in a very low voice
with her hand half covering her mouth. It was obvious that she was not joking.
"Heaven pepper, you have to see a doctor." Jim looked fierce. He was in a bad mood. This stupid
woman wanted to hit the muzzle of the gun on purpose. No wonder she had only the intelligence of a
trilobite.
"I've explained it one hundred times. It's not my illusion. Are you unwilling to believe it or not?" Eva
rolled her eyes at him and her question inadvertently hit the nail on the head of Jim.
To be honest, he didn't want to believe it, nor did he want to believe it.
Now he had an idea to bury his past with Janice and never open it again.
This idea was firm, so he didn't want to pay attention to this nonsense anymore.
"Don't mention Janice in front of me anymore," he warned her word by word.
"Do you think I want to? I'm afraid of ghosts the most," Eva murmured to herself.
"Jim, I know how you feel, but I have to ask you a question." Taking a look at Jim, Essie took out her
phone from her pocket and took out a picture. "This is the main design work of Chanel's spring and
summer fashion show three months ago. The female ghost that Eva saw was actually wearing it. Don't
you think it's weird?"
Jim was shocked. He stared at Eva and asked, "Are you sure she is wearing this dress?"
Eva nodded, "When she stood downstairs of the hotel, there was a street lamp next to her. I saw it
clearly. It was this dress. If I had an illusion, I wouldn't have an illusion of this dress since I have not
seen it before."
Touching his chin, Zac said with a sharp and deep look, "You have to deal with Janet again."
Essie opened the e-mail on her phone and said, "Yesterday, I asked the executive director in Asia area
of Chanel for a favor and asked her to send me the list of customers who ordered this dress. I hope it
will help."
"Let me have a look," Jim said in a low voice.
Essie handed the phone to him.
He checked them one by one, and soon his eyes fell on a name. The corners of his mouth twitched
slightly, and a strong astonishment flashed through his eyes.
Glancing at the phone screen, Zac was as shocked as him.
"What did you find?" Eva and Essie said almost at the same time.
"Nothing," Jim said casually.
