Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 952: Who is best served
"Is something wrong?" Eloise asked with concern.
Edgar has only just taken over the Khan Group for a few days and it would be bad for him if something happened. "Nothing, just a little something."
Edgar brushed it off, "With Hector's help, something will be fine."
"That's good." Eloise breathed a sigh of relief.
She forked a piece of fruit from the fruit tray and ate it, inclining her head to Hector and saying, "Hard work." "It's not hard."
He would do anything to put her mind at ease.
Eloise smiled, thought of something and asked again, "Cousin, they haven't given you a hard time these days, have they, Great-Uncle and Uncle?" "They have the heart and they don't have the guts. I'm the man in charge of the Khan Group now, and they're at least a little bit scared." Edgar didn't want her to know too much so as not to worry her.
"If they give you a hard time and you can't fix it, you can ask Hector for help."
Edgar smiled, "Thanks, I wouldn't be polite."
At that moment, Hector, who had been silent, spoke up and asked, "Has the investigation into Grandpa's car accident been completed?"
It was only when he mentioned it that Eloise remembered it, "Yeah, any progress on the car accident?"
Brimlad shook his head, "No. The word we got from the police is that they're looking into it."
"Isn't there anything to be found?" Eloise inquired with a frown.
"No."
Eloise said thoughtfully, "After a couple of days of checking with no progress, it doesn't seem to be an ordinary accident."
If it was just an ordinary accident, this bout of time would have been enough to investigate a cause.
But the fact that it's not there now means it's not easy.
"Even if we know it's not, there's nothing we can do now but wait to hear from the police." Edgar said.
Eloise sighed, "I wish I'd found out the truth sooner."
The atmosphere was a bit gloomy and Brimlad, not wanting them to dwell on it, smiled and said, "Well, enough about that, let's talk about something else." Eloise nodded, "Good."
Several people chatted until after eleven o'clock before going to their separate rooms to rest.
Eloise and Hector are still resting in the guest bedroom from last time.
"Hector, who exactly do you think is trying to harm Grandpa?" Eloise asked suspiciously.
Hector put his arm around her and analysed, "If Grandpa didn't have the foresight to make his will in advance, then who is best served by this one?" Who is it best for?
Without thinking, Eloise blurted out, "Great-Uncle."
The will is a direct statement that the Khan Group is to be given to the Edgar family, and if there is no will, then it is most likely that Arlice will take over, which is in the best interests of the great-uncle's family.
"It's just a suspicion, we have no proof."
"But how could Great-Uncle have harmed Grandpa?" Eloise couldn't accept the speculation.
Was Great Uncle really that hard-hearted?
"There's nothing impossible about birds for food and people for money."
Hector wrenched her around so they were face to face and he stroked the strands of hair from Eloise's ear, softly reassuring, "Don't think too much about it, it could be a great uncle, it could be a second uncle, it could be a business rival, it could be anything. So, don't psych yourself out."
Eloise nodded, "I know."
"Well, get some rest early. Don't you have to go to the hospital tomorrow to be with Mom and Grandpa?"
"Well, I know."
Eloise lies down and burrows into Hector's arms, and in a few moments falls into a peaceful slumber.
...
A dreamless night.
It was a little late when Eloise got up and the other side of the bed was empty.
"Eloise is up."
Brimlad saw her coming down the stairs and greeted her with a smile Brimlad.
"Um, Auntie." Eloise looked around, "Aren't they all here?"
"Off to the office early in the morning." Brimlad put down the book he was holding, "Are you hungry? I'll serve you a bowl of soup first."
With that, he got up and was heading for the kitchen.
"No need for that, Auntie." Eloise stopped her, "I'm not hungry."
Brimlad had to sit down again, "Well then, we're going to have lunch later anyway. We'll go back to the hospital when we have lunch." "Good." Eloise nodded.
Hector got up early in the morning and went to the Khan Group with Edgar.
As soon as he walked into the Khan Group, he immediately drew the attention of the crowd.
"Who is that next to the president? Why is he so handsome?"
"I don't know. I originally thought the president was already very handsome, but I never thought there was an even more handsome one." "Why does it look so familiar?"
"Ah! Isn't that Hector from Rogers Group?!"
...
Someone shouted out for a moment without control.
Everyone else's eyes widened when they heard that Ken... Hector!
That man turned out to be Hector!
The legendary man actually appeared in front of them.
"Hector, don't mind if I do." Edgar was afraid Hector wasn't used to the unbridled stares.
"It's fine."
Hector waved his hand unconcernedly.
"Arlice, crap!"
Farabee ran into her son's office in a panic.
Arlice saw this and frowned, "Dad, how old are you, why are you still so unsteady?"
Farabee couldn't even care less what her son said, "Hector's here."
"What?" Arlice jerked to his feet, "How did he get here?"
"I think that guy Edgar brought in the help." As she said this, Farabee gritted her teeth in hatred.
They were the ones who were trying to pull Hector in and did work together once, but now Hector isn't even giving them a chance at all. Arlice sneered, "I can't see Edgar has so much heart."
"If I'm right it should be about yesterday."
A number of directors had a problem with Edgar yesterday because the partnership didn't work out.
"He's trying to appease the directors." Arlice clenched his fists and sneered, "He's letting him get away with it again this time."
Farabee frowned, "Aren't we going to stop it?"
"That's Hector, can we stop it?"
"So what do we do, do we just watch that Edgar guy get his way?"
Arlice narrowed his eyes, "All we can do now is replace a way to work with Hector again."
"Cooperation?" Farabee's brow locked tighter, "Is he willing?"
Arlice glanced at his father, "Didn't I say to replace a way? If he doesn't want to, we have to make him want to."
He would never allow Edgar to continue to be complacent.
Farabee nodded understandingly, "I know then, I'll go and talk to Hector."
"We have to get him to agree to work with us no matter what, even if we take a loss."
Edgar was able to take over the Khan Group thanks to the Rogers Group, but it's hard to say whether he'll be able to stand up to it.
He must snatch the Khan Group out of the bag.
Arlice's mouth held an imperative smile, his eyes full of calculation.
The directors were excited by the arrival of Hector and although both the Khan Group and Rogers Group are among the largest groups, the Rogers Group is slightly superior in comparison. So even though they are older than Hector, they still have some fear in their hearts.
"Mr Hector, welcome to the Khan Group," said the directors, expressing their welcome. Hector just nodded slightly before taking a seat next to Edgar.
